    Episode 210 of the V-LOG is live!

    Oh, WE would be here. But there would be an Error 404 on this url.
  2. Weekly container...... yep, you guessed it: 125 DA
  3. I've been killed quite a few times by Hunter's OD just as I hit Shift to activate mine. Yes it only stuns Viking's OD, but you have 4 seconds to kill it, which is why - when it's stunned - you kill it with your main turret. It's interesting also that one fraction of a second of Viking's OD results in quite a bit of OD used up. It's annoying when you hit Shift, 3 nanoseconds later Hunter hits its OD and if it doesn't kill you, your OD has gone back to zero anyway. That's happened to me many times and it royally pisses me off.
  4. How can you "spam a repair kit?" You can only use a RK from your supplies once every minute. The only way to use any RK any sooner is to use a Supply Drop RK if there's one nearby and if no one else has taken it. The point is, supply cooldown is fine as it is.

    Let's Discuss Overdrives

    I think they have. We're now seeing teams coordinating the different hulls to grab flags. Mammoth slowly rumbles to near the flag, hits its OD and steamrollers on in and grabs the flag while killing any of the enemy. When its OD runs out on his way back to base, he then passes the flag to something like Hunter who takes it as far as he can, using his OD to stun anyone trying to stop him. Then there's Wasp's bomb which I've seen dropped just before the Mammoth's arrival. The thing is, the new Overdrives have brought about a bit of teamwork from/with intelligent players using it to a common advantage. This is, unfortunately, not much help if your team has the collective IQ of a peanut.

    Overdrives are here!

    I had a brilliant game on Highways ASL yesterday. Rushed over to the blue's side just to harass them..... let someone else carry a flag. There were two Wasp Freezes by the middle bridge ramp and a couple of Magnums on the end of the bridge's ramp. The first two times I got up the ramps, landing behind one of the Wasps, and promptly got Frozen. The third time I went up the end ramp by the pillars hoping to get behind one of the Wasps, but he'd moved and was already by the pillar so I arrived right in front of him. He let rip just as I landed. But my OD came on just then and Waspie was just in time to see half his team disappear in a cloud of pink.
  7. I think if you've got a drone then it doesn't give you any batteries. If you haven't got a drone (me) then it throws batteries at you in nearly every container. Nice try, Tanki, but I'm never having a drone. Even if you gave it free.

    Tanki: Are. you. listening?

    It's pretty simple, really. Clans can usually talk the same language. Most of the time I'm put in teams made up of foreigners, who can't drive, can't aim, can't comprehend what a team is, don't know what to do with the flag even if they know what a flag is. But they're fixated on Gold Boxes. Oh yeah, every one of these clowns is VERY clued up on what a GB is. The game should have been called Gold Boxi. But they can't talk because they don't understand English, and even if they could the vast majority are too stupid to follow instructions. I've lost count of the time I've tried to stop a flag-stealer, only to find one of my own team getting in the way of my shots or knocking me off my aim. :angry: I'd like to put GET THE F OUTTA THE WAY but as they're stupid....

    Let's Discuss Viking!

    I thought that too. The last few days Viking doesn't seem as fast with SB as it used to be.

    Bugs and Glitches Reports [Closed]

    The flag used to automatically get returned if no one touched it for a set time. Not sure if it's still that way....

    Let's Discuss Missions!

    MM is flawed regardless of the manner in which it was added to the game. The March Update brought about changes to browsers which now means if I try to go into Garage to change turret I am locked out of the game - tank frozen solid, controls locked. That wouldn't have been an issue before MM, because I could select a turret/alt and find a map/battle to suit that turret. Now, most of the time I'm put into random maps that don't suit the turret's alt and I can't get into Garage to change it once I'm in it. MM and merging the RU and EN servers means we got players we can't talk to - and half the time they're too stupid to talk to anyway - on maps we have no say in, with turrets (some of us) can't change, and with Clans still able to get in and dominate. I am, frankly, amazed Alternativa is still trading. Any other company with such disdain for its customers would've gone bust by now.

    Tanki: Are. you. listening?

    Lag, glitches, connection dropouts, And never undoing anything bad they bring in. The March update brought about a glitch that means if I go into Garage to change turret, or press anything outside the browser screen my tank is locked and unresponsive with the only option to quit and lose my score. But does anyone and Tanki even listen? No. Let alone do anything about it. There's been many posts complaining about how Challenges are too often, the stars needed taking too many hours that players don't have. Alternativa still didn't listen, as the reduced it by such a small amount as to be insignificant. 1,000 to 1,500 stars would have been more realistic, especially since many players are kids and don't have time to spend 4 hours a day on Tanki. MM may have its own world of issues but an influx of new players isn't going to change anything when Tanki doesn't rectify any of the existing faults. Which will still be there after lots of new players suddenly join up.

    Let's Discuss Matchmaking

    Or change them all once in a while - maybe every 3-6 months. I'm pretty sick of doing the same maps over and over.

    Thank u.
  18. Stupidest sight.... I'm in Magistral CTF on red corner opposite blue's flag, sniping at blue team on the bridge and also taking out the flag stealer as it comes up the ramp on the way to their flag. Sniped a few successfully, had a lot of fun with a shaft on the other side trying to snipe each other.... I think we both got each other once each. Next thing I know this rico bellend from my own team comes and starts pushing my tank. So I chats ME "Salat what's your problem?" HIM "You" he says. ME "Why?" HIM "You loser." What the actual? I was winning until that clown started pushing me. Sad that a Legend 23 has to act like that. Stupid. "

    Tanki Picture of the Day - Have any?

    Interesting, but Shockwave Flash IS enabled in FF and I know that because isn't it what the browser uses to play tanki on? Tried to find the settings for Flash in Chrome also, but that's like trying to find a unicorn.... edit: Found Flash in Chrome's settings and it's already on. So no idea why paint viewer won't work in Firefox or Chrome. Must be like everything else here - lag, glitches, etc. Always the fault of the player, never ever anything Tanki's end. <_<

    800–1749 stars = 10 Weekly Containers 1750–3499 stars = 10 Weekly Containers AND 10 Regular Containers 3500 stars = 20 Weekly Containers AND 20 Regular Containers So you should get 10 weekly containers and 10 regular ones.
