September, it's the perfect season for cycling, swimming and other summer stuff without the sweat. Summer... well holidays, then comes winter for New-year and eating alot and the lovely darkness. Spring is nice, it feels like some small power growing to the bloom that summer is with only the help of sunlight. I only don't like it for the long time it takes for the snow to melt and the terrible condition of roads in general,

True, but that is a whole different "problem" alltogether, very little to do with what i addressed on my post. The original post suggests marketing, which i ignored, it didn't connect with the main theme of the post well. here are my thoughts on it. If i was to try making tanki popular i would try to step the gameplay and graphics up, maybe even start a whole new game together... oh wait, that is actually happening. The product that tanki was isn't the product it is now, standars are higher even for an online game. You addres Tx yourself, but say: "advertising for TO today would mean more transfer players over to TX." Which is not how it works... what if they don't take the bait, and dislike tanki? Is it likely that they will try Tx later? And moreover, why put money in advertising an old product in the 1st place, when you have something that will sell better coming up? For better incom? The number of new players buying wouldn't be high, and tanki is really good at milking the old buyers. +On a server, moderation and development level new players cost, it's ideal to have servers like en2 and ru servers that are full of buyers, instead of having all servers full with little more buyers, when you are prepping for a new game alltogether. I wouldn't worry about advertising, there are people paid for doing it working for tanki. And from my observation they aren't ducking up atm. so i'd just let them do their thing with Tx, and leave normal tanki unadvertised.

Am i the only 1 who doesn't really care about what is happening with off-topic; tighten the moderation or keep it as it is. I was trying to come up with an intellectual anserw to all of this, but honestly it's an online forum about the same stuff any other online forum is about. Off topic discussion can be silly and well... off-topic, or it can be about a pressing issue. My problem.exe really failed when i realised that the possibilityes for any kind of any conversation i want are endless and im trying to give ducks about the off-topic section on a game about shooting futuristic tanks. Mind you, not even about the game discussion section, that i couldn't discuss with anyone, but the off-topic... But gl to all the ppl trying to keep the forum alive, and all the eager players wanting changes in the forums. :)

Well duck me :P Is the guy coming to tell me about Jesus now?

If you have to cheat on an online game to enjoy it you can officially be qualified dumb. Ofc you can enjoy the game and still hack it for more enjoyment, i guess that can be concidered smart from their perspective. Smart or dumb they are still annouying asf in normal battles and usually get blocked from what i have seen. :)

+1 for Pistachios

Idk, if you have xp/bp alt, but if you do, don't get boreas. The need for wasp m3 in normal battles isn't that burning. If you like bp alot then i guess you should get it, taiga is the best investment for an isida paint that you can make now, that you won't regret in the future. I'll tell you right now, that wasp m3 isn't a powerful tank, it's more for fun, Titan in the other hand is a pure powerhouse. I had stock m3 freeze for a few months... and it was ok, but a few upgrades showed the true potential. You should also make sure to get enough to upgrade your isida and viking (and potentially freeze) before field-marshal. And a wide coverage of paints in your prefered ranges, so plan your purchases with those on the back of your head. I'd put it like this: Boreas for more fun with bp, wasp m3 and isida protection. It also steps your close range game up better. Guardian for power in maps of all size and gear that doesn't beg for upgrading. However it's just my pov, i might have missed something vital... get a few opinions from others too to make sure you're solid before buying :)

Spot on, freeze/viking with taiga is powerful stuff, you would also have the potential wasp/isida for longer range. You would get that nice overlap on all short-range weapons that makes your enemies uncomfortable, but you'd still miss freeze and hammer. Regardless this is a good choise for shortrange player. However your profile doesn't shout exclusive shortranger to me, i bet hills, sandboxes, islands or ping-pongs aren't your strong point. Freeze at stock m3 is weakish, as is isida, so MUing the other could make you potentially leave the other in the shelf. I advice you to get Guardian, smoky m3 is strong stock, as is titan m3. You also seem to lack hammer, rico and smoky protection, that nano focuses on. Smoky/viking is a good allrounder. smoky/titan is very powerful supportive or defender and isida/titan can be used in small cps and drugwars with good success. This would give you ideal garage for medium to short ranges. You should also eventually get some isida and freeze paint, irbis isn't bad, but soon outclassed by rock. You should propably wait for rock. After that you would be set for pretty much any high rank battle and you could continue MUing your stuff or buy something new.

tournaments sound nice :3

Uoeno, there are tons of people who play xp/bp exclusevily, besides that he already has m3 thunder and emerald, he will be fine in avg battles for a while.

Wasp m2 can join xp/bp battle with: "10% - 20% protection - Forester, Corrosion, Emerald, Raccoon, Fracture, Blacksmith, Sandstone or Savanna" Your options are easy to pick from. Legend ofc, if you get into xp/bp you will eventually buy m3 xp anyways and than you won't be doing anything with m2s or fracture. Adding to that you won't necessarily need a sale for it so you get some moving space with the date.

Shaft thunder, good luck escaping the laser, i'll blast the floor or wall besides you. :P

Well this is refreshing after all the "LEAVING" topics.

Good article, enjoyed reading :) What about the putting 2 fattyes with midrange guns on the flag relying on pure firepower, mines, diverse damage and covering large areas It seems to be a solid wall, when you have a good enough chemistry to keep it up.

Chris Hadfield really is 1 of the coolest canandians i know. I might give it a go on the vacation, maybe i'll even listen to Space Session again for the full experience :)

It's not, the unlocking rank of the last peace on the kit(hornet m2) was 1 rank before yours.

I bought douple-armors with all of my glorious 10k crystals expecting my health would get buffed, then i plaid a battle and felt ashamed.

This is a slang dictionary, it should not be about personal preferences, but about the meaning that is usually trying to be linked with the word. I have to ask: do you actually use drugger as compliment? Next time i see someone type: "Drugger" do i have to ask him if he meant it as a compliment? Im pretty sure that in tanki drugger isn't used to call out pro players... Atleast i've never seen such a phenomenon. Feel free to correct me tho, if you commonly see drugger used as positive thing to say... i just can't recall seeing that... like never. <_<

forever is a bit long... but you do you bye bye mr.forumperson

Explosive summer vibes :)

Are you SURE sure, i've seen many things done by cms, but this is the 1st time i've seen 1 of them posting stuff off-topic. The little green men don't seem that far-fetched.

Points for that

I get that the quote isn't telling me any specific time i should study, but telling me to study better. That was just my lazy way of saying that i wasn't looking for studying related things here, and that type of typical slogan got me unintrested. Maybe i'll still watch the video when im on the mood for studies... but that's usually not what i look for on tanki forums :P

Hours and hours studying? Seems like im not learning how to study smart with Marty Lobdell.

I swear, i have seen you somewhere... :huh: https://youtu.be/S2XtA_JgL7o?t=113 Oh yeah, now i remember Anyways, have fun with life :)
