Hi 2000mc, do you maybe know who wrote that nice article that you copied here? I just give it a rushed read, and I found two mistakes that the author might want to change

forget my rank, this is just an alt... Aim Practice Tactics Map specifics (learn maps) Final hint - count the seconds no hint.. but usefull maybe Good luck - and.. dont forget to enjoy the game ;) ps: More tactical hints from pro-attackers are welcome!

Mosquito was intially unlocked at , but the dev admitted it was a mistake. They corrected it soon thereafter - so it was available only for a very short time span. Today it unlocks at (which makes far more sense). But the Hornet M2 / Rail M2 kit at is still a very overpowered thing..

If you use the standalone flash player, you just have to connect back to the server you have been dropped from (make sure it is the right one), and you end up right in your battle (bypassing the lobby, having all your score and k/d stats). Startup, sign in and battle load takes less then 2 minutes; so the 5 minutes that tanki keeps you in the battle are sufficient. Why is the cllient slower (less FPS) then the stand alone flash player? Sure you can not fight in that time.. but at least you get your crystal share in the end.

Hi, your wiki states you are going to improve the CP mode. Could you pls use this thread to explain the changes that you are going to make, as well as the reasons behind it? thanks in advance !

Could you open up a thread somewhere, where you explain the mechanism of this match making? It would be interresting to see some facts in advance, before it is rolled out. Pls remember the act of limiting the premium protection from 20% to 15%.. it was just due to the communities feedback! Given the opportunity to understand the matchmaking in advance will give the devs the opportunity to benefit from players feedback.

I wonder if the first buyers find out, that their purchased JackHammer Kit becomes a little "meehhh" once they have to face M4s.. And I wonder how big their eyes will grow, if they want to buy the MUs for that M3 kit and check the price ;)

You can be sure they already know, how many % of their users use an Apple computer. Simply for the fact, that they can count from which browsers their homepage is accessed. Do you know the number of Apple computers in hands of people that actually play this game? No ? So why do you complain then, that their very first release does support only the most widely used Operating system? It is clever and natural, to focus the client on the most widely used Operating system first; find the weaknesses there, learn from them, develop it firhter and get it right.. and then - after most of the logic inside the client is fixed - then port it to Apple. This saves them money - compared to develop three clients right from the scratch. Saved money means faster development.

Actually they do not force you to purchase crystals.. if you find out how the system of earning crystals really works, you can live well without spending a buck. But that requires thinking and analyzing the situation in advance.. or at least asking somone experienced. And discipline. If you dont do this.. then you'll have a hard time in this game I LOVE to have them sell paints for real money.. because it makes them less dependend on Drugs. It would be awesome if those paints sell well... and maybe they invent some other items (like they did with XT tanks and turrets) that boost their income - but only if they return something to the community; like cheaper pro battle passes for lower ranks.

I already saw some players with those purchaseable paints; they look good.

just write a detailed "how to" (software, version that you've used, sequence of installation (first, then, last..) and configuraiton; maybe tanki adds it to their help-page.

The paints can not be tried on. If you put them into the garage, then we can try it - but we should not be able to purchase it (can be locked up to incl. generalissimo). And in the description in the garage you can place a link to the shop, where the paint can be purchased.

A lot of modern programms dont run under Vista any more. Get used to it and try to get Win 7 at least

Name proposal for the arty-Style weapon: Valkyrie (reminds me about death from the skies; as those female worriors rode flying horses: 1) https://www.google.a...isch&q=Valkyrie 2) https://en.wikipedia.../wiki/Valkyrie) Would also suit the Viking ;)

I think it would be more helpfull to take some of the insights and add them to the thread that provides help for network based lag issues. Then this long history here could be archived and a new thread concerning lag could be opened up. Noone should be forced to read this long history concerning the particular event if he needs helo for lag related issues. just my 5cents

perception will change with your rank

Artellery: Would be nice if the turret would swing from 0 to 180 degrees, so you can point it backwards. Some mammuths would rather turn the turret all way backwards and adjust their hull a little, instead of turning all way around (imagine a defender at Serpuchov at flagpoint.. needs to aim at houses at both sides of the base). Especially if you consider non-M4 stuff. Will the shoting power (range, flight heigth) vary with the amount of seconds I keep space pressed? ps: name proposal for that stuff: Valkyrie (reminds me about death from the skies; as those female worriors rode flying horses: 1) https://www.google.at/search?q=Valkyrie+wiki&client=firefox-b-ab&source=lnms&tbm=isch&sa=X&ved=0ahUKEwjckKW29IvPAhWHDywKHTRsC0QQ_AUICCgB&biw=1305&bih=831#tbm=isch&q=Valkyrie 2) https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Valkyrie) Would also suit the Viking ;) ps2: Please display the current angle (in amount of degrees) the turret is pointing at at the bottom of the screen or below your health bar; so the users can use "memorized numbers" for some really hard longrange shots. You know, with worms you saw you Bazoka from the side and you had time to aim... in tanki you will see it from behind and i think you have no way to give a good guess on its angle just by looking at it from this point of view.

good news: You don't even need a gaming keyboard; a standard keyboard that is ghosting free (10 different keys at the same time useable, as you have only 10 fingers) costs around 15USD. bad news (sorry for beeing so blunt, but it feels like a prooven thing): > if players can't afford those 15 USD (yes, it's ok; not everyone is blessed to live in wealth.. thats our world today -.-) > then those are most likely not spending money on the game (which is ok for me too). > but those issues of such non-buyers are not really in the main focus of the game designers (money, money, money..). (no offense to some hard working game designers who simply love the game)

you guys should state if your ping is bad or if your FPS are bad. This makes the diagnositics the first direction to follow.

simmilar issue at my laptop..

FPS with stand alone Flash: 60 FPS with Tanki Client: 40 (Both times with the same settings) Do you guys have any ideas why?

This could be incorporated into the new "R-Key" MEnu, that displays the protections..

Smoky M4's reload time (1second) is shorter then the Railguns Charge-up time (1.1 seconds). Against a skilled smoky pilot a railgunner will not make a single hit.. even if the railgunner waits to let the smoky shot first. What turrets do actually work against smoky? All closerangers can be outmanovered (smoky keeps distance while shooting); the midrangers can be deflected; so only sniping on long distance works well. Suprisingly a Railgun performs formidable on this task :P When you charge it up behind a wall, pop out in the moment before the shot flies.. you have a real chance. On the other hand, players that have enabled "dynamic lightning" will see your railgun charge-up even if you are behind a wall. That is a real problem.. you can not suprise-shot them.

That's a nice idea.. it keeps the simplicity of the usual TAB-statistics, while it adds room the additional feature. I'd preffer something like Shift+TAB would do the job; works for quickchecks and no mouse is used.

In a battle, when you press TAB you can see the score board and statistics. Please add 2 kinds of ratings. Screenshots shall be accepted to give warnings to mult like behaviour.. accumulated warnings should lead to actions vs the player. 1. rating: time in battle time spend in battle, like 08:17 (min:sec) If the player leaves and reenters the battle, this data shall not be lost, until battle is over ----- 2. rating: activity (percentage): active time = moving, shoting, spotting, .... inactive time = on pause, in garage, looking other battles in battle overview, in chat if not dead. Rating is active time -divided by- inactive time, in % If the player leaves and reenters the battle, this data shall not be lost, until battle is over ----- Examples: a rating of 15:00, 92% - is a normal player that was in the garage once and chats on the curernt battle tactics, 15:00, 64% - is a player that was on a five minutes brake during a 15min battle 15:00, 1% - is obviously a mult someone that had better things to do, but managed to click some key all 5 minutes 5:00, 1% in three different battles... well guess.. --- multiple screenshots of the same player showing high inactivity and mult like behaviour should lead to a warning (just like a in-game news notification; or via a ban-information message). If the player accumulates enough warnings per timeframe, more severe actions shall be taken.
