    Outstanding work! I just have 1 question, if I want to place an order, do I place it in this thread or via PM?

    That's why u happen to be the 1st person to complain when you get lagged out of a marathon Battle with high funds

    true, if they add this feature to team battles, then RIP mults. I am glad something like this is coming up, I was about to start a topic in the ideas and suggestions section to make a competitive Battle mode but now it's been announced that it's already coming :D

    [Issue 53] Tanki Humour!

    That made me laugh xaxaxaxa XD :lol:
  8. Hey Goldy, I have seen many newspaper contests being hosted and I totally agree that the judges( reporters) are unbiased and fair to all. But the craft a tank contest was one of the worst contests I have witnessed in terms of judging the winners. Anyways I would not like to bring up that discussion here and I accept whatever happened. Also, I would say it isn't correct to quote someone like that. S/he may have been wrong in what S/he may have said ( and probably is entirely wrong) but I feel that it can be some sort of a public humiliation for the person directly or indirectly and the readers of this article might treat this person with apprehension, which isn't a very nice experience and it can adversely impact the persons character. Otherwise, good article
  9. Nice article, rank up parties in the past have been an absolute pain so I did a simple yet beautiful rank up for myself

    Suggestions on how to mitigate lags

    And that's why this section of the forum is flooded with topics like "my fps is too low!! Help!" While they're playing on the highest possible graphics settings. Also I think you have overlooked the point that I am trying to shift some XP/BP battles to EN1, and in my opinion that suggestion has never been made before. Therefore if you know how to deal with lag, that's very good for you. Just don't throw a tantrum when you play for hours and lose thousands of crystals after getting lagged out of a battle due to server crash.

    Suggestions on how to mitigate lags

    thank you, my aim is to make people aware. I totally agree that even EN4,3,2 Also crash but a lot less in comparison to RU1. Also I have never heard of EN1 crashing and it's never more than half hull even during the biggest events when there have been 120k players online. (Halloween last year)

    Crisis Incoming (Normal English)

    I can't really explain it here how creative destruction causes short term problems but long term solutions. Also economics isn't just about stats and graphs etc. ( ofc they are a vital part).Also I wasn't really interested in economics earlier but that book is what has given me a fantastic insight and got me very interested in the subject. I can assure you that you wouldn't feel bored at any point of time when you read that book

    How to increase FPS

    Crisis Incoming (Normal English)

    Um.. You're a little wrong over here. What you have mentioned above is called creative destruction in economic terms. Creative destruction will basically destroy something old and outdated to replace it with something newer and more sophisticated. In the short run, creative destruction affects people but it has a much better effect in the long run. Let me give you a simple example :- Before telephones existed, people communicated through letters. This postal system also employed a large no. of people. This included people working at the post office, the mail man who went from house to house delivering letters, and wood cutters who cut wood for papers, etc. Now when telephones came along, the value of wood went down since their demand decreased due to fewer people writing letters, many mail men lost their jobs due to far fewer letters having to be delivered etc. On the contrary, telephones made life a lot easier with quick communication being made possible when there is an urgent need and various other advantages. Now I will also try to give you an understanding of how politicians benefit when creative destruction takes place. In an ideal setup, the government should support creative destruction while providing a blanket over people who are affected/ lose jobs. For eg. When people get kicked out of their job due to machines taking over, a norm can be created that while an employee loses her/his job, s/he is given a decent enough compensation which will help her/him sustain for 6-8 months while s/he looks for other work. This is just one example of how this issue can be partly resolved. It's likely that there would be better solutions we brainstorm this problem. Now what a politician will do in order to gain support or votes is that he will condemn the newer better technology, show how it affects people, and promise to get back to things the way the were instead of proposing a solution an alternative for those affected. Let me also give you an insight as to why petrol wouldn't run out before at least 90-100 years. Alternative technologies in cars have come up which don't require any petrol or electrical charging. There exists the technology of Fuel-cell cars that run on hydrogen. F-cell cars need hydrogen stations to refuel and hydrogen stations only need need water supply and sunlight to be able to produce hydrogen since hydrogen for these cars is prepared through passing electricity through water (electrolysis [decomposition reaction]). Now you would be wondering that why don't we have F-cell cars and hydrogen stations everywhere already? The answer is simple: The petrol lobby is extremely rich, powerful and influential in politics and geopolitics. If such a technology and such vehicles and hydrogen stations become common, it will throw the petrol lobby out of business. Therefore it's evident that the fossil fuel lobby pays the politicians handsomely so that they never talk to much about alternative sources of energy or take any big initiative towards it since even the politicians are under a constant threat of being assassinated/eliminated if they speak to openly against fossil fuels and try to give a big push to alternative/renewable energy. Also the petrol lobby is known to have invested money in newer technology which allows them to pump out more oil and oil fields that had been closed down earlier have been reopened since they are able to extract more oil than they could with previous technology. This also partly explains the reason why petroleum prices have plummeted worldwide I know that I may have gone off topic and I may have disscused politics here but I do not intend to break game rules. Finally I would conclude by suggesting you to read a book called 'Naked Economics' by Charles Wheelan, since you seem to be indirectly( or directly) interested in economics. It's a lovely book which will give you a decent understanding and I can guarantee that it won't bore you :) ;)

    -_- what's happened to this community.. Are sales all you care about? If so, use these 9 days of extra funds and buy a $3 premium for a week, and then spend your stockpile of crystals on TO's birthday on 4th June.

    May holidays have always been 25%. I am not at all surprised but it's true the celebrations were better last year with double Battle funds for 5 days, increased gold value, and a big MU sale. I only plan to stock up on crystals and I would go on a shopping spree on TO's birthday

    Add manual zooming to Shaft

    That idea of yours is again impractical and totally unfeasible though I understand that shaft is definitely somewhat underpowered (due the shaft bugs that shaft users have to face). I agree that being able to zoom in a little more with shaft would be nice

    Add manual zooming to Shaft

    I would rather suggest the devs to fix the shaft bug 1st. It's highly irritating to spawn and find ur turret spinning for no reason and while zooming in, the aim randomly goes up
