went a bit too over 800, but i blame that on the slow site bc I was too lazy to write down the last ~300 kills I got. At least there was a site this time :P. Probably got less than 0.002% chance of getting a dream tank, but the thought counts. Good luck to everyone who got 800+

When does the special page refresh? I've recorded on paper 457 kills 18 minutes ago, but it still shows me <400.

Hmm, well then I'll have to re-plan my weekend, I didn't even get to catch one of those containers on black friday! Good job for rewarding containers for a set mission/target this time, it helps noobs like me to get my hands on these things ;-;. Unfortunately won't be able to go for 2k kills, so 800 kills that is.

Wasp-Fire M2 are both at quite a high level of modification already, whereas Dictator-Ricochet M2 comes out way earlier and is weaker, unless microupgraded. If you have enough crystals and skill to play wasp-fire, then you should definitely go for it. But do try to start saving up early for m3 kit as well, saving 300+ crystals at one go is a bit hard if one isn't patient xD, or maybe that's just me that is too impatient.

I personally believe xp/bp is overrated. Yes, you can get experience easily probably (I haven't had enough experience to confirm that yet), but crystals.... e h h h. But if you're good with hornet/wasp + railgun, you could get it m2 this christmas sales or whenever you wish, and then start saving up for a really good m3 kit; for example Paladin, Raiden, or Medic, these 3 are probably the best cheap ones.

You sure? I've heard thunder is OP in polygon PRO-battles or similar maps with supplies off bc of the splash damage, but is it really effective in NON-PRO battles with players ranked from marshal to legend? (Well, I guess I'll be using Rico or Isida in NON-PRO battles for now anyways :p)

I meant buying m3s at half price on sale xD, not upgrades. Yeah, I am now just saving up enough for when buying m3s on sales, but all extra crystals I get I use them on microupgrades. I don't use speed ups they are too expensive. I've tried twins both m0 on low acc and m2 on my friend's acc, it's just not for me lol I'm terrible with it, I can consider getting it but after getting an m4 combo at least. I'll go with smoky then, because those 35%-50% protections are insane if many ppl got those against thunder. Someone had 50% against Ricochet once in a battle I went, and he was using DA as well,.. my damage per shot was near nothing!

I've been testing with both Smoky and Thunder with Titan on a lower acc, but I still can't come to the conclusion of which to buy m3 along with titan m3 on this acc because they are both really good. Which should I go for m3 first at my rank (eventually in the future I can have both of them, but I plan on making an m4 combo Ricochet-Viking before I hit legend as well so it will be rather challenging to get many m3s even from sales)?

If a wasp m1 magnum m2 is able to run around the corners of polygon avoiding a viking m3 ricochet m3 five times from death by killing me instead, there has to be some sort of aide for magnum in the new polygon map (or maybe I'm still just a noob with ricochet after some hours of practice). Just an experience. Did they do this to avoid magnum users to just shoot right at an enemy if that enemy is right in front of them? Because it seems to me that it is happening less for the past 2 days? Anyone else aboard this, or is that only me? Well, they certainly helped them by putting buildings, blocks, walls, and making maps bigger. Or.... maybe everyone is being tricked into using magnum a lot more now? Perhaps for testing purposes? Or perhaps so that the developers get some sort of excuse for nerfing this beautifully destructive weapon as well? If that's the case, I might as well buy magnum m3 titan m3 during the christmas sales! =)

Seems highly likely in the future if they plan on adding it firstly to the 24 modified/new maps.

they started 6 months ago... kinda late bro lol

Ohh the changes to the maps came earlier than I expected! Nice :D I think the Tanki Team is still debating whether to make x3 chain a permanent feature or not, hence why they keep making these last minute extensions lol. Not saying it's bad, it means it's highly likely that they might keep it permanent, or make it a bit less permanently (e,g; x2 instead of x3). But ay, that's just my thoughts.

Many unusually "happy" people usually forget the existence/importance of others. I think that statement applies really well in this forum thread. It was a glitch. Tanki messed up. As someone said earlier, the TO team probably got the most screwed up out of everyone, and you got a day of premium. Common. Why stay here and argue when you can play now and try to catch the real deals? Sad for me, 3 dropped in 1 hour, caught none cuz I always get killed by an isida. :P That's just how I roll with goldz I guess.

I think because you've made players wait for over 5 hours, it's fair to say everyone should get a compensation of at least 5 containers excluding bought ones. :P I think that would calm the majority of players here, like wow, 80 pages of comments since yesterday! Either way, I'll barely catch any of those black boxes cause I'm terrible at catching gold boxes, so I might as well wait till better events in christmas. Hope you do something great for then!

I hope not. Because if that's the case, I might as well do a few STGs with the golds and mines I have left from the prev contest. :ph34r:

Quite a bit old eh, but if you like rico-hornet you can watch it. https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=g7Uwe2za0jk

Yes, Nives should've specified that earlier. However, many would assume that there won't be 50+ entries for players to choose from (idk how many entries there were), so they had to bring it down to less entries, they chose to go with 15, so that players choosing don't have to choose from 50+ entries. That's how surveys are as well, nice and simple, I think.

Those who have taken this advantage in hand since the very beginning, whether buyers or non-buyers, are now benefiting. They will most likely benefit in both non-PRO and PRO battles for as long as 2 years (just throwing that random number in there) with the terrific rewards. You missed the opportunity to gain such rewards that only took about 15 min of regular battle time per day (sometimes even less if it's only catching 3 drop boxes). I've only bought arachnid and premium once, long ago, never bought crystals; but I'm confident enough to say that I'll have a full m4 combo before legend, simply on my savings. :)

Got a headache last night just from the sudden plot twist lol. This looks excellent! However, I am no judge, and I don't know how all the judges judged. If more than 10 judges were there, it was all based on what Nives said (preferences, personal opinions, etc etc). But if Nives said he voted highly for it, we can just hope that Groonter might get some sort of prize. :ph34r:

Drop/supply boxes can be disabled in PRO battles. You can turn off supplies too, but that's a different parameter from the drop/supply boxes.

The entries look amazing! Congratulations to everyone :) Honestly, didn't expect to get in the top 3 on my first try. :ph34r:

I've been saving up mines for this moment ahaha jk, gonna give this a good try though :P

Cool. New interface, not bad. I used to prefer the previous way of using the simple Battle Button with the filters at the bottom which would lead me directly into a battle, but if this is update is just one of the many steps to bring a perfect matchmaking system, awesome. I just hope you considered possible changes you could bring to the previous 2-day testing of MM. :ph34r: Your next step in bringing matchmaking closer should be adding 5 buttons to choose map-size (very small, small, medium, large, very large).

wow... the amount of negative reactions I see in the comments is... actually sad. I have a question for all of you upset players. How does this update change gameplay? All that the nickname change does is give you a name you might like at a particular time. "At a particular time" because everyone usually changes over time. You decide you want your name to be "HornetMan" now, but in about 2 years time you might want a name like "TrumpIsOverParty". You may want to stop thrashing at Tanki for every update that seems to be given for buyers only... There might be multiple reasons for everything. If it doesn't disrupt your gameplay, it shouldn't even be bothering you. P.s, I myself wanted to change my nickname after I get m4 Ricochet-Viking, and I don't plan on spending over 15 euro for anything online that doesn't benefit me in real life. However, I personally don't care about this update, as it doesn't change the way I play. It just means I'm stuck with the nickname I created in 2014 :P #DealWithItSituation
