So who actually buys kits? It makes no sense. On special events where everything is 50% off, why every buy kits that are between 40%-50% off with a chunk of that for a completely useless paint. On 50% sales everything is available. Kits.. what you want... isn't always available. Do people actually buy kits? Is the only advantage simply that you get more advanced equip earlier? It's far better to buy equip at 50% then micro upgrade fast with sales. Kits should all be over 50% off.

go ahead. but i think it was already suggested previously. nothing happened.

I'd like freeze and fire to get xp for using their turrets for healing purposes or countering the other. Freeze gets xp for freezing burning victims, fire for thawing frozen victims, and freeze for freezing a friendly vulcan overheating. That sorta thing. Similar to isida. Right now I won;t stick by a vulcan as a freeze get nothing out of it while helping him. Even if it helps us win.... how does it help me to win in a game where i have 15 xp. Choosing to sacrifice my game play for a vulcans great run. Anyways. I'm rambling. Xp for use of overdrive that are shared. 5 xp per overdrive shared with. If you activate overdrive with 1 friendly near by, 5 xp. 2 friendly, 10 xp. 3 15xp, 4 20xp, 5 25 xp. Or something like that, not less... possibly more but I think 5 is fair per tank. Maybe also tack on 5 xp per tank, plus x amount for total healing created. So if I activated overdrive near a friend who is full hp, I get 5 xp. If I activate overdrive near a teammate/friend who is 18 hp, and totally heal his tank, 5 xp, plus 10 xp. Motivate strategy by giving xp for stuff that shows Experienced Play. If a single viking goes in steals flag and wants to use an overdrive to get out... not saving it for teammates ok... That's experienced play as well. You save overdrive for yourself to get the flag. And the flag rewards you with extra hp. But a person who has overdrive at 1 min left in game, and then has 5 teammates pass by and never uses it for rest of game... coax them along tanki! A more inventful alt for isida. I might add more later.

The concept of firing at long ranges burning debris and lighting them aflame is not a new one. Catapults, arrows, lit oil + material, etc. Introducing this is neat. Vulcan deserves a buff. They are gonna nerd it hopefully not to much. It needs to still be a threat. I heard people initially say this was a bad alteration haha, it does have its downsides. I.e. takes 12 seconds to use. Have to go through your full clip, plus spin up time. You are dying while using it. An isida nearby helps... but I've only had 2 battles where isidas actually stayed with me long enough to really see what it does. It's amazing. If you have an isida vulcan pairing, or double isida vulcan pairing. I've said it before, I'll say it again. Vulcan+isida+isida as a vulcan player is one of the most enjoyable tanki experiences I've ever had. You kill everything. This lighting them up mechanic, gave me insanely high kill rates. Let vulcan have the love. I can factually say, vulcan with the new alt, for the time that I was playing on highways. Vulcan took the spot as new king of highways. Fact. You could literally rotate your turret from one side to the other. Light up 5 enemies with 1 second of firing time each. They burn letting you track them for reshooting at them. Target down the small tanks fast. Or the open tanks for quick kill and continued burning. I only got to play 3-4 highway battles during the 3 days before vulcan gets nerfed to what degree I dunno. But I took by far and wide the highest score in those games. And there were shafts. They couldn't compete lol.

Twins with the extended range alteration increased speed is very strong. Equipped with twins protect. I'd recommend. I also have rico and it got seriously buffed. I used this with extended range alt as well. They are both good options. Would need the alt on both I think though.

As someone who hasn't really spent a lot of time playing twins, I don't see how this affects me. *waits for someone to check profile stats* Sigh, I will give this new twins a try with its long range, increased splash damage, and twins Protect. I see potential here for power. Again, I think people are misreading this if they think suddenly it means twins will be long range. It's still short-mid range. You just don't lose vast amounts of you damage at those more further mid ranges. They do seem to be giving rico and twins a swap in role though. I admit to some degree. The only thing that remains to be seen is how this slower rate of fire drains twins to what extent. oh boy

Is it my imagination or is the vulcan barrel load up over 3 seconds? I swear I counted to 4 seconds before it started shooting. But maybe it was 3. What weapon can I let shoot at me for 3-4 seconds before doing any damage to it and win in a shoot off? Vulcan is worse off.

Since the sales have already been announced as 50 percent sales. I mean meh, maybe if they gave us 80 percent sales on micro upgrades. Tanki has been losing traction with me for some time. This only makes my decision to be here less easier. So a bad... and a good. I suppose. I'll visit more in a few months, see if they fixed. I mean to be fair, I still have problems with my vulcan overheating. they'd better get on a whole bunch of stuff. Poor tank devs are maybe getting poorer in poorer in real life. But that's just getting what they are reaping to the players i guess.

this is by far the most egregious thing I've seen from tank. 1 module of 250 000 for 3 protections. is now equivalent to 3 protections worth 250 000 so we just got charged 500 000 for this upgrade. This isn't even threatening to leave. I don't want that to be what you take from this. I'm not threatening to leave as if to say what you have done will cause me to say to you something like what you have done is so moronic I've given up on tanki and will likely fill up my time with something more worth my while. It's also childish to threaten to do anything to cause someone else to do something differently. No, I won't be doing any of that. What I will do is point out the costs of this. 3000 crystals a game cost per 10 min game now. Instead of gaining a few hundred in a game, or a 1000 crystals. I will likely lose 3000 crystals per game!! Even if I am on losing team!! Then, I have no batteries from what I had in my garage. I had double and triple protections against a few. But some I had none of. Before for me to get smoky shaft magnum and striker and say 2 others repeat, I would pay say 500 000 or on sales 250 000 for the whole thing. And I'd have all the turrets protections. Now for each turret I still don't have, about 4 or 5. I'm easily paying 1 000 000 or more turrets. Why would I threaten or reason out with people who made these choices in the first place. Me saying I'll leave to you... I give you no value of reason to talk to you. Just look at what you've done. Fix it. You dumb ....

ok so.... 10 min game. 300 crystals per battery. battery life = 1 min. 3000 crystals per 10 min game!? !? !? !? upgrading a single module turret, is now what it used to cost to upgrade three turrets. before my cost to upgrade a module was 45000. Now its 45000 to upgrade just one of any thing. so it will cost me 135000 to upgrade what used to cost me 45000. hmmmmmmmm

I think mission for a s l with just cap flag in a s l by itself is bad. Means people will have reason to play red assault to capture flag, but no reason to play defence. Unless other missions like earn xp etc are added. But just capping a flag... everyone will play red mostly.

Thanks for tip. Yeah I didn't mean speed ups. More meant to save up a large amount and then instantly when m3s unlock i could get them.. and then upgrade them and get hem fast ... at an early rank for m4.

I agree I was very lucky. I started the day with 250k crystals. I got my weekly bonus which was ~ 4900? I haven't memorized my own weekly bonuses since update... I think I was at 8100 before... now 4900? I have no idea. Then I got 50k in rewards. Ended the day with over 306k crystals. That account is in ultra saving mode for m3s.For now... the income will not get spent unfortunately.. Nothing to spend it on for now. Just waiting for the account to rank, then m3 and super fast m4 I guess.

A quick recap of mission containers: I was one of the first to post about 3 containers and what I got: 10 k crystals 3.5 k crystals 3 days premium I now have 2 more accounts to report - lower accounts. 1 account received: 10k crystals 125 double armor 125 double armor The other account received: 25k crystals 25k crystals 125 mines Pretty sweet.

Container reward: x3 3 days premium. 3500 crystals. 10000 crystals.

OK so I'll post a positive piece and a negative piece. Positive is latest announcement about daily missions. Containers. Etc. great update. Great job tanki. Now for a bit of a different opinion backing up what other players have said. On a lower account I played a ctf game. I played on the losing team, and decided to stick through with the battle. I should state I joined somewhat late. But somewhat mid battle. I climbed up in the ranking of my team, and my team started to run. So, i got up jus tshy of 300 score and when the game ended there were 4 people left on my team. And 10 on the blue side. For playing on red losing side for about 8 min... so granted not the first few min, and the game ended before the 15 min. It was 8-1, the game was going to end soon anyways. I got 38 crystals. Thirty. Eight. Crystals. For about 5 min of gaming time or whatever it was. I have a mission for 450 crystals. There was around 2-3k crystals generated in that game. The losing side got none of it, the best on our team got 51 crystals. So criticism about abandoning losing games and only staying in winning games - > yup. Do not stick it out in losing games. It's not worth your time.

That's fair and my apologies if I went overboard. But when someone is being serious and honest, don't come out with half jokes or jokes. Tone of voice on the internet does not come across. I can't hear you. Or see you to know any inflections in voice or body. Nothing of what I read in your post "noobs take offence at being called noobs" came off as half joke. It came off as simple response.

Interesting. I mean on the face of it I have the most lowest opinion of how this statement was made, you come off to me as the dumbest person in the world. But let's see if I can break this down. First, I assume this comment was directed at me. Second, I assume you suggesting that I may be in fact a noob, and this isn't a general statement. Third, definition of noob. As in someone who is new to the game. Now for an onslaught towards the stupidity of tanki players who use the term noob. A noob is person who is new, just started. As a legend I am not new to the game. Now from here, if you don't realize how lacking your argument is, I'll try to help you out a little. A person can still be a noob high rank, and I can only think of a very few ways: High rank noob: Someone who for some reason can still not turn his turret, or someone who is high rank and plays a new turret than he's played reaching that high rank. So I've played twins, isida for instance, and I'm fairly decent at vulcan as far as I can tell. Picking up smoky and thunder no problem even though technically I'm new at them. Now if I bought railgun, or say striker, or magnum... maybe then I would qualify as noob? I'd be new at the turrets... and probably not very good at them. Another way that might indicate noobs is say clear in game scenarios where a specific gameplay is required and you do something an inexperienced player would do, like an isida who chooses to heal a flipped tank when the flag bearer is under fire at half health. I.e. why would you not heal the flag bearer vs a flipped over tank who is about to self D. Now third onion, you may be talking about me being a noob... or not. Maybe you actually believe every time someone shouts the term noob around in tanki its a valid call. I find this remark almost entirely baffling if you honestly belied it. I hear people call druggets noobs. A drugger is not a noob. The two are not correlated. You might call a drugger a drugger.. because that fits. But a drugger and a noob are easily too different things. Top ranks playing on their best equip are probably not noobs. That you may want to defend that anyone could be a noob even though its just a term that on tanki has become more of a troll statement makes me think you may be in grade 2. I do not mind that I may be somewhat older than the average tanki player. I am not in elementary school anymore. It would just be really great if tanki could have a semblance of maturity beyond the age of 7-10 year olds every once and a while. And here is the point in the coffin. No one should want to have to ever use the term noob, because when the term noob actually applies in a justifiable way anyone would agree to label an actual noob a noob is kind of a jerk move. Hey 10 year old tanki play who just joined at mo smoky and mo hunter, I'm a legend playing in an alt account, and I'm the best. But I can tell you ar a noob, so I'll blind side you with noob insults.. because guess what: YOU ARE A NOOB! When I was a noob,and couldn't turn my turret, any time I got called a noob, I basically just ate the bullet and said, yeah I haven't quite figured out how to turn my turret yet and play...thanks for pointing out my short comings. i mean I guess in a sense I don't mind it when I was a noob, and was being informed why what I was doing was a noob play, it helped me get better when I was told not to block pathways or do this and that. But when people shout noob for the random sake of because they are upset or what have you, are we actually going to play dumb and be like as a community, YEAH here here! let's all keep calling each other noobs right up until legend 43 rank. Cause I mean after all.... legend 43 .. he's pretty noob. God please tell me people in tanki are not as dumb as they sometimes seem when they speak and act, my view of this community would drop even more. Maybe I need to stop using forums at 65 posts and 2months. You all talk like such a great community so act like one. When some one makes a valid point acknowledge and support it and not be cowards. Act like you might one day be a grown man or woman. Start now. Make the community a better place. Lose the senseless negativity.

I respect your response to a degree but would disagree with your understanding of what my position is (to label me a hypocrite). My responses to negativity are valid. Here is what I don't mind: criticism. Dear tanki, In daily missions there is one which is rather hard to achieve first in battle. Could this be altered so that top 3 in a mission win. Tanki to players. Dear players, your wish is granted. Weeeeeeeeeeeee Here is what I'm more frowning on, and it's not that it's even I'm harsh on it as criticism, but it's this one phrase multiplied by 1000 everywhere on the site in all the games. Do you know how often I hear complaints about drugs in game, in forums, etc? This is what we don't need: Boo tanki you never give players what they want. Where is as L mode from last year, why isn't that in the game. Tanki is going downhill because everything is broken. Twins is op. Thunder is op. Isida is op. And then go on and on and on. Now complaints about magnum are fine. They are valid. That is criticism. Magnum is overpowered I think anyone would agree. But how, and where to tweak it is key. But honestly tell me looking through this site that you don't deal with whiners, you don't deal with complaints. My number one peeve in this game is how often I hear the term noob thrown around. The people on this site must by 7 years old. I am a legend and get called a noob almost every day. I go on a low account I created this year, and get first every game and guess what, somehow I'm still a noob. I join a high rank on that account, let's say I play as rank x and play with rank G which is about 5 ranks higher than me... and instantly I'm a noob. In that game I get highest score play all better than them. Say I have legend account. Gues what I'm a noob. Anyways. Negativity. No thank you.

Why was my topic moved to this, They are similar in that I'm trying to share my positive opinion of tanki and others, but this is positive or negative. I'm sick of going to threads and seeing negative bashing on tanki. Honestly if people are playing a game they can't help but bash left and right that please rethink your life choices. Why would you play a game you want to constantly insult. My post is related, but essentially one half totally opposite of this post. I wanted no negativity in my thread. This one is open to at best half positive half negative, or just neutral. I genuinely think my thread was justifiably separate front his one. I had seen this topic and did not want to write in this thread.

Ok so this topic is straightforward. I only want positive aspects of tanki discussed in this topic. I see a lot of negative comments just everywhere, it's rife. And I mean, that affects the game. My experience of the game for sure. A negative comment for every 2 min of reading is kind of absurd. The community should be more positive I feel so here is your hot zone for positivity in tanki. Pls fill this up with pages and pages sharing what you love. And nothing negative pls. Is there buying sure. Does that affect certain parts of the game sure. Is there drugging sure. Do some things kinda tick you off like when inexperience players knock of your aim by not driving around you, but pretty much like they think they need to fist pump tap you every time they go by, I mean sure. That's all annoying. But please. Give it up for tanki. Ok so let's start this off. For those who say that tanki doesn't listen to us, what did I see today? Finish in top 3 in a game - a community request I do believe fulfilled. I had to get top 3 in 3 different games. And this was certainly achievable I got a nice 9 repairs and 42 double damage for this. I was ok with that. Or anyways so hey. X3 missions I see are staying. This year with x3 missions obviously being legend has transformed my tanki experience. This year alone I added to my garage: Ricochet m3, Thunder m3, Vulcan M3, Fire m3. Before this, I was a smoky twins isida player only. But that's just the half of what x3 missions did for me this year. My twins isida weren't even m4. This year I got them to m4. I have had m3 viking and m3 titan for a while, but I finally topped them off to m4 as well. Then, after purchasing vulcan m3 this year, I got it to m4 after 5 months or so. With the upcoming end of year sales, I can also get m4 thunder and smoky underway. This will complete my overall most desired turrets and hulls. Don't want wasp hornet. Don't want mammoth. And i feel out of all mid hulls i have viking which beats the others. Maybe a dictator down the road. Rico and fire will work themselves up to m4. But its still more. I got my first protections this year of actual note.Before I basically just had 2. Classic inferno paint protection. And nano classic protection against fire smoky rico hammer. So I got a badger, lion, kodiak, urea protection all this year. Mostly all this was with a couple sales on getting premium for a few months, and x3 missions. 2500 a day, with 14000 every week. I could write more but I see it is already starting to get long. And I know some don't benefit from x3 missions if they don't do them. But in any case. Make those in the community who want a bit of good reading about the game we all play come here for a little boost in spirit. Post away.

Yes, with the way the holiday map is set up. I can easily get between 60-75 kills in 15min on my low account. With a little bit of drugging and good equipment. It's no problem. The challenge was my high account, the low account easily blew the 800 kill challenge.

Hey all so thought I'd share my container gains! Thanks Tanki for my below surprises! Two accounts. Legend and Captain?. In my order of significance here they are - Legend Account: Sahara Paint (60 k but functionally not useful),125 mines, 125 double armour, 3.5 k, 10 k - pleased. 13.5 k is ok by me. Captain? Account: 125 speed, 125 double armour, 125 double armour. 3.5 k crystals. 25k crystals. - was floored to receive 25 k crystals in that account. so also with the premium that came along for it, its 2.5k 2.5k 2.5k 3.5k 25k= 36 k crystals this last weekend! The account is maxed out at the current level for its equip, and I'm just gonna save it all. :D spend it in future ranks on a kickass kit with m3s start coming.Or when I get the next thing to m2, I'll get it to M3 super quick. Thanks Tanki one of my best christmas so far as far as game goes. My christmas holidays were also pretty great. Hope everyone also had some good relaxation and family time. :)

Mine has been same for 6 hrs. I will see in morning if it is fixed.

​its said I'm at 643 kills for like 4 hrs. by my calculations i am minimum 803 its not awarded my any kills for after server reloaded, nor for the 2 hrs before
