I totally agree with you, that's just another thing Tanki needs to get straight. Also, ENGLISH/AMERICAN have an increasingly hard time getting CRYSTALS WITHOUT BUYING THEM. This is because we have no one to match to us, and having a player population that is shrinking, adds to that fact. If we don't get any crystals, we're not going to get any sort of good equipment. Then, while the player bases start trickling away because of these problems, we're not going to have any Tanki Online. We're going to have to go to Tanki X, waste our money to do it all over again, and again.

Does this mean Tanki is DEAD/DYING? No, I'm not talking about the new stuff, the paints, match-making system, etc. That is how Tanki goes, better to the players, right? Bruce Lunga would certainly appreciate newer things too :) What I'm really talking about here, is the merged servers. Back in the older days of Tanki, where it was still just Russian space garble, you had whole Russian servers, 1-24 I believe (I forgot), and trust me THEY WERE PACKED. So, the geniuses behind this game, along with the new ENGLISH community, decided to add other dedicated language servers. This update reduced the lag and also gave tankers friends to actually chat with, rather than just type emoticons to each other. But, along with the separated servers, mentioned earlier, the player population was about its peak. So, in conclusion, does this mean merged servers imply Tanki Online is losing players??? Therefore, is it dying?
