What? When you say reporter, do you mean like, being on the Tanki staff?

Every map is good and bad at the same time, maybe it's too big, maybe the map is one sided, maybe it's ugly, you can't please everyone with one map.

I think that's a good idea, sorta head off what the paragraph is about? It's do-able.

Lol, one so far, and I don't even know if it was from this.

Why would that be a good thing? Those popular maps that you're talking about are maps like Polygon and Sandbox, so many people like these maps that if there was pre-made ones, all of those would be full and all the other people wouldn't be able to play thier favorite maps so then they have to go play on a map they've never seen before, sorry this is not a good idea.

Actually, I'm too young to be a teacher. If you think this article was long and boring, just so you know, this took me about two hours.

No! This is one of the worst mistakes to make as for as an update goes. All of my friends have had different thoughts, but they were all negative. I personally think that there should be an on and off setting (I thought there was one before and I wasted about 5 minutes trying to find it) because this NEW camera doesn't even turn with my hull or my turret anymore, this should've been something for April Fools.

Introduction To start this topic off, I haven't been here for all six years of Tanki's lifetime, but I have been here for the most recent two years. Two years doesn't seem like much but a lot has happened in two years. Graphical Improvements When I started playing Tanki, the graphics were not great to say the least. Tanki's graphics have improved immensely in two years time. Tanki developers have added shadows, lighting, and particles that really make a difference, for example, shadows can help you to see someone around a corner, this helps a lot more than you'd think, mostly in maps like Noise and Silence. The Addition of Micro Upgrades The addition of micro upgrades was different, it gave Generalissmos something to spend their crystals on and personally, I thought they would make a bigger and more noticeable difference. The newest addition to micro upgrades has improved it but it's still not worth it. I fully micro upgraded my M1 Ricochet to M2 just after the update came out and it was still a ripoff, I wanted to stop in the middle of it but then it would've costed me more crystals just to upgrade it immediately. Equipment Change When I found out I could change equipment in battle, I got excited. No more leaving the battle just to change a paint or use a different hull or whatever then get your spot in battle taken by someone Staff Sergeant who doesn't know how to turn their turret. The only problem with it was it was that you had to wait 15 minutes before you could change that item on your tank again, thank God now it's only one minute. New Weapon? Hammer was added into Tanki online almost a year ago now, and if you remember anything of what it used to look like then you are one of the lucky people who got on the test servers at the right time and actually realized there was a new gun to buy. In my opinion, Hammer is one of the most over-powered weapons considering what it was meant to be. Hammer is supposed to be a shotgun, right? Wrong. This thing is like the KSG off of CoD BO2, it shouldn't be a shotgun if people can kill you cross map with it. Another New Weapon? Vulcan, on the other hand, I didn't play with early because I was taking a somewhat long break from Tanki at the time. When I got back, I saw this new weapon and thought, this thing might be just as op as Hammer. That's when I realized it sucks and to this day I don't know why M1 Vulcan is sitting in my garage. I do know that Tanki fixed Vulcan's major recoil problem though, some friends told me how bad it was and I saw a video of it. Frustrating Re-balances The new re-balance to every gun in the game and some of the hulls wasn't in my opinion very necessary. All this did was make Isida practically useless on maps like Silence and made it more suited for maps like Island. I don't even want to mention all of the other weapon re-balances that were unnecessary, and Hammer didn't even get a nerf which surprised me, that only thing it got was slightly wider cone spread. New Maps Gone Bad The new maps added around a year ago were good for about a week then no one knew what half of them were. Some of these maps were Madness (Which was brought back) and Esplanade which were the two most popular ones to come out of that. Then Highland and Silence had been completely changed. Who remember when you could go all the way around the side of Highland, take the flag, and go back to capture it before anyone knew. Silence used to not have a tunnel system, or a huge gap between the buildings by the Red flag, or a space where you can fall off when attacking the Blue flag on the right. Along with this, some maps were removed from Tanki, one for example is Silence 2 (If you haven't noticed by now, I loved Silence until it was changed, then I played non-stop on Noise and now I mostly play on Island and Arena), which was available for higher ranked players who liked Silence but wanted something a bit different. Supply Changes When the Tanki crew decided to make supplies (drugs) less over-powered, this changed how everyone used their supplies much differently based on what kind of situation they were in instead of putting on all three and running into the battlefield mindlessly, however, with this mines got a buff. The arm time for mines was changed to one second instead of two making them much more deadly. Another small change was that Medic Kit Boxes became better because they did the same thing as the normal drugging ones, along with this, Isida and Medic Kits would remove elemental effects (ex. Freeze/Burn). Soon after this, the supplies got different logos, not a big deal except when I logged in and tried to pick up a box that I couldn't tell if it was a Nitro or 2x Damage. Extra Notes Please post what you may want me to add into this article that I may have forgotten about. Keep in mind I keep this page updated, so if you see any sort of recommendation on how to make this article better and it's already there, I might have updated this page since that post. If anyone would like for me to make any other posts on a different topic I would love to as long as I already know about it.
