The impact force is insane. Using viking against twins is like driving into a 100 mph gale.

No idea sorry but freeze is a pretty good weapon at M3.

Ricochet is a good alternative to smoky. Definitely stronger at close range and I have 13 shots until the clip is emptied. Smoky is best at mid range with titan.

Firebird is best at M1 especially with the early unlock, after that it gets progressively weaker. M3 with alteration is strong in PRO battles, but weak in normal battles because of health kits.

Will these two problems ever be fixed? 1. Turret doesn't do damage when I enter a different battle. I exit and join again and it still doesn't work. I have to exit the client completely and login again. 2. Lag. The gameplay isn't fluid and I find myself driving into a wall when I was trying to move elsewhere.

Twins used to pin me against a wall whenever they got the chance so I'm happy about this. Now I'm the one who can chase them (to make them self destruct) :D

It feels to me like smoky has had a slight buff, anyone else notice? I'm split between micro-upgrading smoky or getting firebird with alteration. Firebird is insanely powerful right now and it could help against the legend ranks.

Should I micro-upgrade smoky to around 40 steps, or should I spend my crystals on firebird M3 + alteration?

I would get hunter for the stability.

Most of my friends haven't been online for a year now. The game is declined rapidly imo.

Freeze is decent but nothing compared to the power of firebird with alteration. It's gathering dust in my garage now.

Twins does self damage now.

Not in my experience. I'm getting one shot all the time and others have the same experience lately.

After New Years sales I had almost 0 crystals, now I have 210,000+ (without buying). Can anyone beat my high score?

Has anyone else become bored with smoky? I've been using it for a long time now and it's still pretty good, just boring. Despite being at 20 steps out of 50, it will cost me another 500,000 crystals to make it M4 which seems outrageous. I switched to ricochet during the new year sales and that is better than smoky at close range, but again I'm bored of it now. Where do I go from here? I'm leaning towards railgun or hammer. I like twins but due to the recent change it now causes self-damage, so it doesn't appear to be a good investment.

Shaft has been super strong for a long time. Mounted on titan it's just a nightmare to play against. Railgun is right up there as well in it's ability to one shot medium hulls.

Tanki appears to cycle through phases whereby one turret is much stronger than the rest. For a long time it was isida and it would dominate all battles. Then it was hammer. Right now railgun is the strongest turret without a shadow of a doubt. It can destroy my viking M3 (25 steps out of 50) in one shot, from the other side of the map. This ability makes it a nightmare to play against in my favourite maps like Kungur, and it even has the upper hand in smaller maps due to it's high damage. I think it might be time to make the switch.

I'm using firefox and I keep getting this message:

This update doesn't seem fair. The enemy might press 2, 3 and 4 at the same time, but my supplies are greyed out. This makes tanki a game of chance, rather than strategy. It is complicated and unfair. PRO passes were enforced a few weeks ago, so I don't see the point of this update? Tanki needs to remedy the lag. Sometimes it is really bad and it's frustrating.

True. I don't know why but I feel vulnerable whenever I used mammoth. I feel like a sitting duck because it's slow - I can't catch flags with it or run away from druggers. I see no use for it other than sniping? :unsure:

Crystals are overpriced for English users compared to Russians. 16 Euros for 100,000 crystals is waaay too expensive. http://en.tankiforum.com/index.php?showtopic=299682

Highest fund I've ever had:

Legit question - the pro pass cost me almost 5000 crystals this morning. If someone hasn't played in a while and has no crystals, how can they play?

31000 fund

The impact force of twins is knocking my viking around too much. I should just use wasp as there would be no difference. Why do tanki developers hate viking so much?
