    Extra Premium Bonus?

    Most likely a little glitch. The "bonus" reward is just the actual reward multiplied by 2, so what he should get with Premium. I'm guessing he did not actually get 3x the base amount of cry.
  2. Post them in this topic, like a few of us have done on this page.

    Gold Boxes!

    2 golds within 30 minutes of each other. Almost was 3, because I joined a game to see a gold halfway to hitting the ground, but could not get there in time.

    Gold Boxes!

    A very close gold using Boar. I think this is the best drop zone in Noise. There is the ramp (where I got the gold from), the blue crate, and the high jump down from the other team's base, which are all great ways to get the gold. I barely managed to nick this one, because there were a few people on top of the pile trying to push me away.

    Kit review: Healer

    Nice article, just one big contradiction here. Says hard to be spotted (ha, no pun intended i think), then says easy to be spotted. I would also add for an advantage that it makes your tank look very nice.

    CLOSED — Cedric's "Virtual Office"

    In vlog 102, you said that a clan system is going to be added to TO. We have not heard anything else about that in a couple of weeks. Is it still going to be added at some point, or has that idea been abandoned?

    [Issue 56] [Contest] Dramatic Gold

    When I clicked on an actual battle in the normally parkour-ridden Year 2048, I should have known something incredible was about to happen. The game itself was a first- I had never played a real game on this map, so I was caught in the moment. This was not a normal battle, as I had just gotten hornet M3 the day before, and was getting used to what was my dream combo- Hornet and Thunder. The first battle was close; I think the final score had the teams within two flags of each other. The game ended, and I decided to stay, with my mind wholly on dominating the next round. The second game started, and within the first three minutes, my team and I got three captures. Then, something that had not even crossed my mind happened, as an orange message appeared across the top of the screen. I then looked at what I was equipped with- a low health hull, a high, self-damaging turret, and a paint that did not protect a bit from Thunder. At this point, it was too late to change my equipment. I spawned in, and quickly equipped a double armor while starting to search for the yellow and white marker somewhere on the massive map. I was sweeping my team's base, and rather quickly got to a bridge. That is where it was. A few teammates were nervously waiting for the right time to make a move, so I joined them. I was nervous an enemy would kill me, so I went down a ramp, away from everyone else, waiting. As the parachute appeared, I sprung into action. I drifted around the corner and up the ramp, with the noble ambition of jumping on top of a teammate and easily gliding underneath the gold. I jumped…off center. Disaster struck as the corner of my tank hit the corner of my enemy. My beloved new hornet violently jerked to the side, and I ended up wheels up. My whole body groaned, and I just knew there was no way I could take this gold. Luckily, I decided to not self-destruct, in hopes of getting a nice view of the pile for the gold. Then, I looked back at my tank, and realized I had somehow managed to stay on top of the teammate that flipped me. My heart fluttered, with a fraction of a spirit welling back up in me that I could get the gold. My teammate, of course, drove over to the gold, with me in, or should I say on, tow. I was lucky here, as he got to a great spot. My tank suddenly twisted around, so it was laying in a perpendicular direction on top of his. I shot backwards, with the plan of somehow getting my tank upright- but something even better happened. My tank went vertical, long ways facing up. I was trapped in between four tanks like this, and looked to the ground below me to realize that I was squarely in the center of the drop zone. I raised my camera angle, to see a parachute covering up my tank. I then instinctually turned my turret to the ground, and shot. The kickback from the shot, combined with the explosion of the Thunder shell launched me up in the air- and brought down my health to about 1/16 of my total. Luckily, I timed it just right so that I rammed into the gold box. The relief hit me as I saw the magical phrase "Jwimmer has taken the gold box" appear above me. After the tanks cleared and I respawned after self-destructing, I started to think about the incredible event. This was my first time playing a real game on this map, the first gold I had seen on the map, and, most importantly, my first gold taken using Hornet M3. To add on to all of these firsts, I finished first place. This was an incredible game, and one that remains, to this day, one of my all-time favorites. 676 words -Jwimmer
  11. Not everything has to be a hyperbole here. Maybe if we could have even 1 more battle in the event, so there could be 48 players in? I did not manage to make it into the one today, so do not know how many people it took to run the 1 battle. However, it probably was not any more than 3 or 4, surely there are enough admin to make a second one? But yeah, I completely agree that an event for 5000 players is impossible.

    Let's Discuss Smoky!

    oh yeah I got it on a 50% sale, so it was cheap then. My bad

    Let's Discuss Smoky!

    Isida is debatable. At stock M3 till about M3.6, I would say Smoky wins. M3.6 and up , at close range (assuming against all other weapons, not just the 3 in your question), isida is better. But mid and long range smoky is definitely more op. I also thing that when comparing the prices of all M3s, smoky gives the best bang for the buck. Stock M3 is relatively cheap, and with about 60k of MUs, it is very competitive.
  15. Entertaining article that was easy to read. Looking forward to your next writing!

    Gold Boxes!

    Easy one. Just drove on to the spot, pretty much uncontested. Didn't even need dictator, could have gotten it easily with wasp for viking as well. I'm kinda becoming a fan of the white paint. It looks pretty nice paired with M2 and M3 equip. Also XTs, but I don't have any of those. Also, everyone else with alts, I have a question. I am getting bored of rico, and am thinking of getting Vulcan M2. Should I get it in the Tanker's day sale, or save up and get Vesuvius or a different kit? I know you will say get a kit, bit I am seriously tired of rico. After you use up the clip (which happens in like 6 seconds of shooting) it is worthless.

    Both of those were slang. Hecka to keep it PG, and soonish because I don't know exactly when.

    Standalone not opening

    Problem solved. Thanks

    Standalone not opening

    I can't clear the flash player cache because it does not even load enough for me to do that. I also can't clear SharedObjects because there is no Documents and Settings folder. I looked this part up, and the alternate routs to get to Macromedia do not work as well. My computer runs Windows 7. DarkOperative, does this mean the new client is coming within the week? It seems like standalone is not going to work for me, so I guess I will just play via Firefox while waiting for the update.

    Standalone not opening

    The Problem: I open Standalone, click on a server, it loads for a half second, and then the window closes. Occurs when trying to load any server. This just started today. I can still load Tanki just fine via Firefox, but I would rather not have to play via browser.

    What to buy? Which is better?

    Whoops, that was a typo. I have 15/50 MUs on it.
