Off-topic, but I'm a bit surprised at this - Russia is a more or less developed country - why aren't Russian school children made to study English?

You don't meet them that often because they aren't OP in arena or Polygon. Fire, freeze, isida, twins, hammer - you will always see some of these because they indeed do well in small maps.

You got yourself a time-machine, went back to last year, changed your name to DejectedTomato, and got hunted for using supplies? Also, FYI, it is DejectedTomato who has got a ban from the forum. Kids nowadays, with their stories and lies... Also, there is a separate topic here called Complaint Book. Here we can post about our complains - lags, errors, mults, sabotage, moderators, chat violations etc. According to you that topic should only be used to wish Mr. Cedric "Merry Christmas"?

Noise was unbalanced even before magnum was released. If a magnum is doing well (finishing in top 2 or 3 while playing equal time in battle) in arena or polygon, then the opposite team is either full or noobs, lagging or has weak equipment. Wolverine, I never said you can escape rail by using DA when you predict it will shoot, I just cited it as a reason for getting protection. ---- Show me one youtube video where I can see this awesomeness of magnum in a supplies disabled battle for arena or polygon. ---- Supplies is the main issue. Turrets which are balanced with supplies disabled are not necessarily balanced with supplies on. Hammer and smoky (in my opinion) become OP with supplies. Same could be issue with magnum.

Magnums are annoying if they keep using double damage, because it one shots medium and light hulls with DD. Thats the same reason why everyone in high ranks buys heavy protection against rail, as it can also one shot medium hulls. We actually do not see the projectile coming, so we can't time our Double Armour correctly. With supplies disabled, or only DD disbaled, this is the weakest turret in the game.

I've been getting the same errors, so you are not alone. These errors for me started coming when they implemented the clan chat (correlation, I'm not claiming causation). For the 3 to 4 months I played before that, I hadn't got a single of these errors. Also, my guess is that HTML5 + Matchmaking will be implemented by August, because they increased the mission chain rewards till that time period. They are hoping that these 2 new features will bring back the players who have left, and to make sure that no more players leave until these get implemented, they have increased the rewards.

With matchmaking there's a good chance the system will put a heavy drugger on your team as well, so there might be less of that victimized feeling.

You already have rail hornet m2, so that covers big maps. You could buy fire - hunter kit, or titan - twins kit or twins - viking kit. Even isida is not bad in small maps now, but you can just buy it in sale, no need to buy kit for it.

Depends on the map. On Massacre, rail rules. You can buy the m2 damage boosting alteration, it definitely makes rail a better turret, but the protection modules still make the weapon obsolete.

--> . I assume the "supplies for free" are the ones you need to play hours for... not really for free... This is perfectly meaningful statement, not a troll. If you think this is a troll, it just shows you haven't yet had a very good education. A simple introductory course in Economics would have told you about the concept of 'opportunity cost'. Google has a short and sweet definition: https://www.google.co.in/search?q=opportunity+cost+meaning&oq=opportunity+cost+meaning&aqs=chrome..69i57j0l5.6513j0j7&sourceid=chrome&ie=UTF-8 > the loss of other alternatives when one alternative is chosen. Follow up on of the articles in the link for a better understanding of the concept. Anyone who plays tanki for hours, is losing out on other activities that he would have done at the same time. By playing 1 hour tanki to get my missions done and get "free" supplies, I "pay" with my time, time which could have been utilised elsewhere in battles I enjoy more or simply time I could have spent away from the computer and enjoy some real life things. Also, you and Viking4s are the only ones who have recently not posted anything related to supplies in this topic. We are forced to go off-topic to give you answers that you are unable to think of for yourself. If you think anybody's posts here violate rules, feel free to PM a mod about it (Viking4s is not a mod).

http://en.tankiforum.com/index.php?showtopic=250343&p=6178313 I was asking him what he meant, and I was right.

you mean supplies right?

Medic obviously. Drugger rails love light hulls that they can one shot. Even viking is one shot in the high ranks if you don't have rail protection. Viking does well on maps of all sizes.

Thats a September 2016 video??!! This is more than 8 months later. Just you let them increase power on supplies. On Christmas 2016, there were 62k+ players online, and neither the discounts nor the celebrations were as good as Tanki birthday. Today is Sunday, and at peak time, there's only 34k online now, and I'm sure many of them are just chatting in the lobby and not playing. Majority players' interest in this game is already fading away. They're trying to reward non-buyers with more supplies, and more crystals every week, but thats not helping the cause either. This game is losing more players than are joining, and supplies are the main reason. Cooldowns will definitely not be reduced, because they've already started worrying about players leaving.

40%+ protection - what else would you expect on small maps with supplies disabled?

Its not that we can't afford to pay for supplies or crystals. There's a Paypal bundle in shop for only $4 that gives 30k crystals plus many days of premium and supplies. I could easily buy, enter drug battles and give other druggers a big bashing and teach them a lesson. Sounds good, but by doing this, I'm putting money in the pockets of the Developers, and thats exactly what I don't want to do. I don't want these greedy Russians to get my money - the money is better off if it goes to charity. If you and your "friend" chat about what 2 random strangers wrote on the internet about a virtual game, that just shows the depth of your "friendship", how much you know each other, and that you have no real life issues to discuss about. My friends don't even know I play tanki, and "what a random unknown guy said on the internet" is the last topic I would talk to them about. Also, how have cooldowns been reduced?

http://ratings.tankionline.com/en/user/Paranolmal-Activity/ What an abnolmal nickname :P Kids nowadays, still learning to spell and turn their turrets, but already so much drug usage.

why dont you just buy m3 rail and m3 wasp and play xp/bp? Even majors nowadays are all about 12345, I can clearly imagine how legends would be.

Yes, my concept was right, but got calculation wrong on second one, it is indeed 8.25%, so 20% decline/ http://en.tankiforum.com/index.php?showtopic=354769 20% increase in rewards only, not 21% "Rewards for missions have increased by another 10% compared to the rewards before Patch Update #451" ------- Even with 30% less crystals from missions players can get more than enough crystals to get a kit at Lt. General. This is true only if you are very careful about your cry / exp ratio, and stick to exactly one combo at m1 and m2. Players who do not use supplies typically end up on losing side always, and you get like 80 crystals for 400 xp. So 400k xp implies only 80k crystals from battles - not enough to buy even m2 kit. Old players had advantage because you could get cheaper kits by full MUing stuff and and buying them on discount days and the discounts used to add up.

Its fine the way it is, just remove effect on nearby teammates, or better still, blast all your teammates, because instead of helping you, they are mostly blocking your way when you're taking the enemy flag back. Enemies could be blasted off too.

Might be a good idea to make a new list sorted by supply usage per hour, and not total supply usage.

Then tanki ruined our budgets with the self damage :/

There are 2 ways to get 3 crystal missions: either with swap, or without swap. You calculate the probability of each happening, and then add it. The increase was only 20%, not 21% if you read the announcement carefully. Also, you can't simply subtract the 20% from the decline in crystal reward percentage. Multiplication rule needs to be used here.
