    Cosmonautics Day has landed!

    Awesome event. The meteor gold boxes are really cool! I would like to see them kept as a permanent part of the game!! :), oh and I am a Titan/Viking player.

    Tank Controls, Gold Box Drops update

    People are making too big a deal about the Gold Box delay, it was like that before, now you just have to really pay attention where the gold is coming down and hope you are near it. As far as the controls issue, my Titan behaves pretty close to the way it did before, albeit a little less nimble, but it's not a big deal. :rolleyes:

    Crazy Weekend is on March 23-25

    This is definitely one of the better Events that they have had in a long time. 400 kills over the weekend is doable as opposed to 200 in a day..lol.

    Community Stream: The Hunt

    I am glad this will be a short event. WAR was a good idea, but for those of us who have jobs, it was too time consuming. Trying to get 200 kills in and having a busy work schedule was just a bad mix.

    [Issue 73] Examined: Thunder

    Thunder was a beast until the rebalance. They nerfed it and it went from being a feared turret to just an ok one especially with all the protections available against it. Still love it though.
  6. Very good article. Full of useful information. Striker is a bit tough to master and I am still learning, but I can see it's potential. Hopefully I will get as skilled with it as I am with rail. :)
  7. Nice introductory article, look forward to the next installment. Sun Tzu applies not only in games, and battles, but is read by many in the business world as well. I think all newer players and quite a few of us old dogs would do well to review this and the upcoming articles. :)

    Updated maps and X3 Mission chain rewards

    Awesome update!! I love the fact that X3 Mission chain will continue. Hope it is permanent. New maps are cool as well. Really love the new Massacre (will admit that shooting from one end to the other with a rail is a true test of skill and eyesight (lol).

    Sounds like a good time, to bad I won't be able to get off work until 02:00 Nov 1 utc. :(

    [Special] A Test in Review: The Matchmaking System

    The thing that bothers me the most about this whole topic is the attitude of the developers towards the comments of the players. To have a superior product, you tailor the product to the needs of your customers(players) and you don't shove your changes down their throats. General Motors did that in the United States in the 1970s and as a result they are no longer the world's largest automobile manufacturer. The general tone of the Vlog and to some extent this blog is we are going to do what we want and if you don't like it too bad. Very poor, customer service and not something that I would expect from Tanki. Remember, your game is not the only one in town!!

    Testing of Matchmaking System on EU servers

    Not a fan of this update. I rarely post on the forum, but first you made the big error of putting all players on EU servers so now we are in games with players from Russia. We can't read cyrillic and I don't know if they can read english so it complicates communications for strategies in games. Now with this, I don't see how we can choose our favorite maps and in addition, when I tried to get into a TDM, I had to wait almost 3 minutes...unacceptable. This is a bad idea.

    Update 428 — Parameter tweaks and more

    Vulcan needed to be nerfed slightly as does Shaft. Isida was basically emasculated and Rico was also cut down a little too much. As far as rail guns, it takes skill to hit a long distance rail shot. So many factors can throw a shot off (somebody bumps you, lag, dips in the terrain, mistiming your rock so you shot high or low). The only problem with rail, is that maybe is was nerfed a little too much. Jmho.

    Tanki X — Discussions

    Tanki X has not only a different look, but a different feel than TO. The TO Client is finally working pretty well and it has a high fps. Tanki X is graphics intensive and has moments when it skips (sort of like lag on TO but different). The vehicles are harder to control and there is a little bit of a learning curve involved in handling and shooting. The physics are different. It has potential, but I think it is a bit early to make any judgement yet. There is still work to be done. The only thing that sucks is you have to start over from scratch, imho.

    Leave your feedback about the new Downloadable Client

    Had some difficulty making connection for the first 40 days or so. Finally got connected and I can say I like the new client. It loads fast, got rid of 90% of the lag problems and in most cases when I first log in, I can engage in battle as opposed to having to self destruct for my tank to interact with the game. Great Job Tanki Team. :D

    Checked it out and don't see any issues. Also have my firewall set up so if it blocks an app from communicating, it is supposed to notify me.

    Marto, I can connect via firefox just fine. I set up my own computer so I don't think my firewall should be an issue, but I will explore this and post back.

    I cannot get client to run. I am using windows 8.1 and firefox 49.0.1 and I have cleared the cache, uninstalled and reinstalled client numerous times and keep getting this screen. Thoughts?

    Spring Showdown

    I have no doubt that the Russian ladies will be a tough team, but I have to give a slight nod to the international team. Go ladies go!!

    Women’s Day Celebrations and Goodies

    I am glad that Tanki is recognizing the lady tankers. I have run across quite a few who can hold their own with anyone!! Hat's off to you ladies and may the best team win....Semyon we miss your weekly Vlog appearance.

    Reserve your nickname for Tanki X!

    I had an issue with the registration process not recognizing my email. I contacted support and after a couple of go arounds, they sent me a link that gave them my external address. After that, when I went back to apply for my nickname reservation, everything worked as advertised. The process has some issues, but if you work with support, they will help you get it resolved.

    That was a real cute cartoon! I hope you guys continue to publish it. :lol:

    Changes in garage and reworked CP

    I think this is a very nice update. This will certainly make the CP games more competitive and the garage reorganization should make it easier and faster to find what you are looking for faster, which is a help when changing equipment in a battle. Great job.

    Details about the lag

    This problem seemed to happen more frequently after the last couple of updates, It was especially noticeable after the personal discount update. Happens 5-7 times in a 15 mins battle, usually when there are 4-5 tanks on the screen fighting eachother, then it begins to happen. And it can take from 5 seconds to whole minutes to end. In my case it is happening quite frequently on sandbox although that is not the only map. Sometimes it hits everyone at the same time, other times a few tanks are moving while the rest sit and turrets spin. I have been travelling with the flag and suddenly the flag falls away from my tank and I can't pick it up nor can I pick up boxes on the field. I become ghost like similiar to what happens when I first enter a map after changing hulls or turrets.
