I threw together this video of the tutorial and first battles and added some tips.

I'm not going to try to convince anyone to play TX ( I have played 7 battles in the past 60 days yet am rank 31), but if you can bother opening it every morning they hand out free stuff daily. I've been playing that long game for 7 months now.

I have a 2008 macbook pro, I set the graphics for as low as possible and don't play full-screen but suffer the same as you. I have pestered TX to make a less graphicly intense version (no skybox, less textures) but they persist in not. (2.26 GHz Intel Core 2 Duo processor, NVIDIA GeForce 9400M 256 MB graphics card)

Guys, I know TX is different, and it is hard (I am bozo_master on the forum, I complain about matchmaking and maps a lot :) but I ask you to please bear with the game, and at least login for the first 15 days and get the free lot, and then log in August to collect the Season reward. If you do this, though you may not plan on playing TX fullscale for another year or so (until they finish fixing dumbness and some bugs), when you do go to play you will have a small advantage instead of letting it go to waste. I am making a video about beginning in TX, it will be out sometime between this afternoon and Monday.

40 seconds less than 2 gig an hour max. Can't remember if training battles are shorter or not, there's been alot of changes in the year and 8 months I've been playing. yeah, 10 containers will be nice I am displease about having to use special links.

And our schedules align so I can participate!

I can't see Issimo's response so I can't quote it, but here's my honest take on the matter I think the quality of most TO videos in the gutter*. Lame gold and troll compilations, and weird shock stuff done for views rather than quality battles. Something like what Jingles is doing for Wargaming would be interesting to more people, IMO; taking extraordinary battles from ordinary tankers and explaining what is going on in them. As for imbalance, most of these youtubers have credit cards (the better to buy golds with) so they can buy as much stuff as the want. I highly doubt that the 50 or so youtubers getting the rewards across all the tiers are imbalancing the game more than kids who filched Daddy's CC. Over the 200 or so containers I have opened across a couple accounts, the rewards were appreciated and helpful, but not enough of a contributor to my ass-kicking KDR of … 1.18. The cry of "the rich get righer" means nothing because A. The rich have no power so who gives a, and b. Why shouldn't Tanki reward people immaterially for the work they do giving TO air time. *Obviously mine as well, 18FPS battle vids and container videos amateurly edited and set to the same 5n and NCS scores over and over again. Season 3 is almost done, though.

YTO helping game? hahahaha <tips chair over> Never is probably the answer. It involves players which help make Tanki look good, so it is helping the game. And all it costs is peanuts for the program.

I am having issues as well, it wasn't there around 11am UTC but appeared for me and some others in game at around 15:00 UTC and 18:00 UTC

Look at iTunes to see if the tune is good enough to be set on repeat. Then I finish posting last battle's results to G+, as it takes longer to do that than to sit in MM waiting.

RIP team battles as everyone fights for guldz…

Is that the list of channels above minimum threshold or all eligible (rules followed) channels, regardless of views. I'm thinking its the forum, which would explain why my channel hasn't been mentioned for the past 2 sessions, as I get <500 tanki views a month so far. The free advertising was nice, though.

125 DA, DD 50 B 100 of all supplies

I'm in season 3 of opening containers, yet they get less than 10 views a pop. I am getting a new subscriber every other day, which after 16 months of only getting 15 subs, it is quite exciting.

Don't forget you'll be in for the duration: 3 years. I also disagree on PRO battling, there is no point, esp if you are doing missions.

125 mines 5 Gold boxes 25,000 crystals that from crazy weekend, so not bad at all.

Best Tanki Online player video of the weeks from 2017 Vlogs! A little shameless self promotion because I hoping this will become one of my most popular videos, one that will bring people in. I seem to be doing better sub' wise than views, 9 subscribers and 1500 views, most of which are not to a tanki related video.

-fix lag, probably by changing/updating server management software -limit Protection modules to 35% -put in Ratings for ASL and Rugby prior to release instead of 8 months after -equal pay for equal work -have bi weekly maps, in 2 tranches, meaning maps get rotated in for 2 weeks, but there are 2 featured maps at the same time and their replacement is staggered --1.5x BF for special maps, but no preference given in matchmaking -reduce spawn points for many rugby maps -have overdrives be selectable instead of tied to each hull -Oppress Dictator owners with onerous taxes and humiliating schemes :) -Do something about Titan and Mammoth; probably lower speed at M2 and M3 levels, so they are not so unbalanced -ban for 24 hours anyone caught saying the following in Battle chat : "go gold", "was gold", "admins drop please" "goldi" etc etc -get more battle mods and chat mods, spreading out the workload and increasing coverage -stop being so obtuse about how the system combats abuse. There are a finite number of ways to go about it, doesn't need to be a State Secret -give more than 3 days notice of sales -run sales concurrently, meaning that everything is on sale for the duration, rather than this staggered Turrets-hulls-protection-paints-MU bullcrap -announce Crazy Weekends more than 3 days in advance -make it more welcoming/less painful to female players -pay lip-service to the "nerf magnum" crew by reducing splash radius 15% and locking maximum elevation at 65º -re-implement the auto finish for teams of unequal size -have regular mass disabling of accounts of abusers -raise "rank of majority" from WO1 to 3rd lt -tighten rank brackets in group system to +4-4 -have MM preference single rank battles, esp. in DM -occasionally release meaningless numbers to assuage the naysayers, i.e. number of accounts ranking up to colonel and marshal each month, number of m2 garage kits puchased, etc -have equipment be rentable for 2 game hours during sales -make promo codes less stupid: (boarding pass numbers, VINs, rental car codes, credit card numbers, all are less ridiculous and simpler to use than the 48 character of random gibberish that they currently are. Preferably they'd be like any standard normal promo code: NIVESTREAMJULY7643 or something like that, unique enough o be unguessable but still user friendly. -lock down the Events Chat when an event is going on so it isn't being spammed with false links -require clan leaders to have at least 5 legitimate posts to the forum every year -rename Harlequinn paint to Bozo paint in honor of my obscene benevolence and greatness :P -randomly disable inter-team communication to stunt abusers -limit all PRO battles to 3 hours 100 flags 1000 kills 500 points max length to stop abuse -remove damage in Parkour mode, this will prevent trolls from killing everyone, and remove the need for drug usage except SB and mines -Set unlimited drugs in parkour, so laying 4500 mines doesn't cost -have containers give equipment rental hours, which could then be applied to any appropriate tier of equipment e.g.: --As a 3 star I have no access to M3s, but I could rent any M2 piece of equipment or drones for a set amount of time -make it so all EN faction participants in the 2018 War get to keep their faction paint until next war -make War victory animated paint "permanent" -add a few more ranks: 2mXP, 2.4mXP, 3mXP push legend back to 5mXP -fire anyone in the dev team who even mentions making new hulls -Remove Noise and Madness -port onto Switch and PS ASAP -update graphics, not to make them more intensive, but to just give a new look. The rusty 45º pipe that's been that way for 5 years? Make it a concrete like color e.g.

How so? (sorry, but this one gets on my nerves. I'll give a hint: there is no "winning".)

As a Freeze m2.10 owner I think the Firebird is still a force worth reckoning with.

I personally don't care enough about how well. The idea that players (no small amount little kids*) know best how to run a game is funny. And as for what "is best" for TO and players, that is highly subjective. There is another thread about what people would do if they had unlimited power, give themselves loads of crystals and drugs and free stuff is a pretty common theme. What the point of playing and earning is when you have a free ticket to the "top" is, I have no idea. As for whether devs should give weight (and how much) to player feedback, that is debatable, and I think not. The devs have access to real numbers: -players/country -mean time spent in game -mean crystal revenue -number of players who complete missions, and how many missions each day -real money spent on various things at each rank etc etc That will tell them far more how to run and "improve" the game than a highly select group of player non-representative of the group with an agenda to push. That's why MM is not going away. That's why they decided to implement drones. That's how they get their data for "rebalances". If I ran the zoo I'd do just about everything different, but I guarantee you the feedback on the forum wouldn't change one bit. *I'm not saying this as a judgment, and it wasn't meant to demean or insult anyone in particular or at all. There are certain facts about that cannot be shrugged off regarding the good decision making of those below ages of majority. Anyone who can't be trusted with a credit card probably is going to make questionable spending decisions in game. Back when I couldn't use money wisely (in a meta sense), I made choice in TO that I now regret years later. I was young once, too, and can speak for the group because I was part of it.

So that means us Starred Ones are stuck with m2s, no m3s?

/me presses F for respect It's been non-PRO battles Only for the past 3 crazy weekends at least. I checked.

Sorry if this has already been asked, I did not see it: If I leave a battle while it is in progress, will my kills be counted as part of the 400? thx
