Not sure what is going on, but since I cannot use the client because it consumes so many CPU resources (40%-50%), I tried using a Chrome browser and every time I login the setting are NOT saved and I have to change all of them again. I like the OD to be RShift and the supplies on the Num keys but when I change them, the next time I login they are back to the default. And of course, I do have the issue with the frozen turret after in-battle equipment change. Also, I noticed while been JUG and having full health and moving around, sometime, I self destruct especially in the Sandbox map.

Apparently Tanki developers and Mods cannot chew gum and walk at the same time! Ask only 1 question at a time although they are never answered! Are you that incompetent?

I know it cannot be fixed because they do not have enough players for a true matchmaking system. However, my problem is that they insist to call it matchmaking and that is deceiving because a true matchmaking system does not have such a wide range of disparity among ranks and equipment. Also, it is not a true matchmaking when they dump you in the middle of a losing battle 99% of the time and they expect you to complete a "get top 4 7 times in a winning team" mission, It is insane, but then again looking who the head game designer is, I do not expect much improvement. The guy is plain arrogant and dumb that things he knows what this game needs while he drove off the majority of the players.

"planned"? what makes you think that anything Tanki does is planned? Any time they make a change, some big issue creeps up without fail! Anyone who takes Hazel seriously is more of a fool that Hazel himself. The guy is not only arrogant, but also ignorant. Anyone who would design a Matchmaking system like Tanki is a french fry short of a happy meal and not the brightest light bulb in the christmas tree. You can talk about equipment all day long and you can come up with ideas to nerf this or nerf that, but unless the system becomes a TRUE matchmaking system were they are MATCHING ranks and equipment alike, you are wasting your time. Just like you are wasting your money if you buy anything from Tanki because you know that a few months down the road, you will get it in a container and it would be nerfed. Also, there is no point of investing any time in this game, let alone money, until it becomes stable again and you do not get kicked out of the battle or you waste your time to get in the battle and there goes your supplies, effort and the minutes of your precious Premium account for which you paid good money for it!

Note that this game is meant to be played and not intended to wait 4 min to get in to battle only to crash and not been able to enter again!

Haha you assume that they are a large firm! They have some 3-4 15 year olds programming based on what a guy in ponytail, who pretends to be "head game designer", tells them and they have no concept of programming principles! Not to mention basic networking which it seems they have no concept whatsoever! Well if you could then it wouldn't be secret, would it? This is the developers proving their incompetence once more! They are very good at that!

There is a good chance this is more of a programming issue rather than a server issue. Why do I say that? Well let me see: when developers implement a new "feature" or when they make a change on how things work, or when there is a special event then , without fail, players have problems with the game that did not have before. It is not a coincidence that we could play before the restart and now we cannot. Therefore ,unless you are are under another DDOS attack, where the system behaves different than now, I'd say with 99.99966% confidence it is programming issue.

They have no clue, that's why they are not answering. I asked them if anyone is aware of the problem, but they did not respond as usual.

Whatever! Who cares where you put it? It still does not negate the fact that Tanki developers are incompetent!

I highly doubt that you appreciate anything we say. This was a compliment. Sarcastic as it may be , it is still a compliment. We have to compliment the developers' efforts to be the most incompetent in the gaming industry! Here's to you devs: Mission accomplished! By the way, is anyone aware of the problem that we cannot get in the game? Because we know how well Tanki communicates with the players when there are problems! (more sarcasm here. Perhaps you need to create a SARCASM section!)

I want to compliment the Tanki developers for going out of their way to show us how incompetent they are! Congrats Developers! You made a change for the UFO days and you managed to screw up the game as usual. "lost server connection ControlChannelDisconnectException" error message shows up when entering a battle! You never fail to disappoint us again and and again! At least you are consistently incompetent!

It is not only you! This is typical example of ho incompetent the Tanki programmers are! Every single time that they make a change, any change, something gets screwed up and it ruins the game experience. It is unreal how these people keep their jobs!

You must have some comprehension problems! I did not say PER DAY, I said "Average at any given time on STEAM". wich part you did not understand that I was talking about STEAM? You know STEAM, the site where serious gamers play serious games! Checkout this https://steamdb.info/app/562010/graphs/ Like I said, I do not want to see a static powerpoint from Tanki, because I do not believe what Tanki publishes because they have proven to be dishonest. Put your online cocurrent number on the server in real time on the game page like other games do. Even if Tanki has 3,000-5,000 concurrent players, it is a far cry from the 60,000 - 70,000 they used to have. You must be out of your mind if you think "the best development feature" is the MatchMaking system. The term "Matchmaking" Tanki uses is an oxymoron! 1. How can you have Matchmaking when you have such a wide range of ranks and equipment? 2. How can it be a true Matchmaking when the teams do not have equal amount of players? 3. How can it be a true Matchmaking when you get dumped in to a battle so unbalanced that ends within seconds of entering? I think you are delusionl or you work for Tanki and you say what you are told! No sane person can call that Tanki Matchmaking system "the best development feature". Actully judging by the huge loss of active players, one can call it the WORST development feature in the history of the game.

I was on a team with OPEX-RAH which is Hazel and we were in a CTF battle and the coward was playing with a JUG! Of course he gathered all the flags in record time and he ruined whatever little chance we had to complete our missions! Add that to the fact that this he assigns us neraly impossible weekly missions, such as "get 7 top3 places in a winning team" while dumping us to unbalanced battles that end within seconds of entering and you got a disaster called Tanki!

Now that would be embarrassing! However, you can get an idea how few players there are by looking at the stats in STEAM. Tanki averages about 40 players at any given time. And if you are wondering why it takes so long to enter a battle or why battles are so unbalanced in the number of playesr and the wide spread of ranks, you can darw a reasonable conclusion as to why they no longer publish their numbers! Come on Tanki, prove me wrong! Show us the real stats in real time, not made up powerpoint graphs!

The only people who defend Tanki are the Tanki employees and no one else! There is no sane player not connected with Tanki that will defend such incompetence and greed. Let me give you a clue who decided this: It is the arrogant Russian guy with the glasses and the ponytail that goes by the handle HAZEL-RAH or OPEX-RAH. The guy who single handed ruined what it used to be a very decent game with the potential to become great. But hey, take heart: ULTRA containers are herr~ Now you have an even greater chance of getting more useless items that you do not need. You know like Nigeria , Iran or Germany paint or more Speed boosts to go along with the few hundred thousands you already have!

Please, can the NOT-SO-BRIGHT person at Tanki that decided the video on the main page should play during our battles tell us why this is happening? It s not enough to content with buyers, lag and disconnects, now we have some non-english speaking person describe in bad accent a battle that we have no interest attending. While you give us a lot of laughs with your incompetence, now you have take it a bit too far! (yes I pressed the pause button on the video BEFORE I selected a battle, but it still came on during the battle) Are you that dumb to just provide a link so we can chose to go there?

Well, I am not sure these are bugs or features! 1. Using the client, after changing the settings to mute the Music sound, the music comes back after logging off and logging in back in again. 2. Same with the music at the log on screen. I can mute it by pressing the SPEAKER icon but it comes back at the next log in. I think there should be a way to save the client settings as it happens not only with the sound but also when I change the buttons assignment. For example the OD defaults to SHIFTL and I change it to SHIFTR as I change the supplies to NUMERIC buttons. Yet at the next log in they default back to whatever Tanki thinks they should be. 3. Pasting User Name and Password has never worked on the Tanki Client since the conversion from F;ash and it is still not working. It works in the Browser log in but not the client. 4. Changing equipment during battle at random times the tank disappears and I have to login again that places the team and me at a disadvantage. Also, the time between equipment changes is ridiculous high!

You are lucky if you do this in 10+games. I have missions like that on every account that I have that I carry over for a month or so and I am not even half way there! 99% of the time I get dumped in an already badly losing team and the battle ends within a few minutes of entering! Not even a chance to get 1 star! But hey, Ultra containers are here! whoooohoooo!

So what "brilliant" mind at Tanki thought that it is nice to have the stupid music come on automatically at the login screen? I am using the client and although I have in the setting the music turned down all the way, when I log off, it comes back again! Oh, and of course after so many years you still cannot use the Right Click to paste the user name and the Password in the login screen using the client. Only Ctrl-V and Ctlr-C works. But what am I asking here? they cannot fix the bugs that hinder the game like randomly the tank disappearing after you change equipment. But hey, Ultra containers are here so we can get more speed boost and useless paint to go along with the useless augments like "lightweight construction" for hulls that we do not even have!

Really? I did not notice!

Not missing much, other than the frustrated comments in chat! No one seems to be able to get into ANY battle! But hey they put up balloons and cake in the garage!

Hey bud! You are jumping the gun here assuming they WILL BE ABLE to fix the game! It takes tremendous effort to "switch cables"! I was just able to login and load the game but everyone is complaining in the chat that they cannot get in to battles. One person said it waited 20 min and he has not been able to get in. I am trying to get into a CTF battle that has 39 S average and so far it over 3 min and still counting

Please be patient. It takes time to "switch cables".

I get the same error which by the way is not new as it has happened in the past. Since they implemented this atrocious MatchMaking system, there have been more errors than before. My cat was seriously offended by this post. He demands immediate retraction and retribution. Haha! the Soviet style management of Tanki believes that the players are on a need to know basis and they feel that the players do not need to know if there are problems.
