Quote from an anonymous member (not me): "I saw Riddler in battle today. He was playing Magnum/Viking - he spent more time blowing himself up than he did blowing anyone else up." Anyways, because of this dreadful rank system, noobs can easily get to Legend. (LOOK UP) I would advise asking: @lssimo, @DieselPlatinum, @Tidebreaker, @TheCongoSpider, and @Hate - he can't be super busy, he's the only mod to have completed all challenges to date :P

Oh - so fps is not the tanks jumping around part? Look, I'm a volleyball player - tech isn't my thing :P

I believe he's talking about near the end of the clip, when an orange Wasp/Railgun gets it's hull raised by a Hunter. I kind of understand why it looks like a hack, but it's not (or else it's a hack the doesn't help :lol:).

I had an interesting one where I spawned early, took the flag, came back and gave it to an Isida/Wasp. Instant pet :wub: I think I've mentioned this before, so, sorry to be redundant. Anyways, this Isida followed me around (I had Rico Hunter at the time) and sacrificed himself several times just to keep me alive (i.e., he got in the way of a Smoky firing at me when i wasn't even holding the flag). The two of us managed to cap 4 flags between us, and fortunately he spoke English (very limited, but still enough to understand Tanki terms), so we were able to cooperate who capped what. Ended up splitting it 2-2, even though he did much worse than me because I got lots of kills, so I planned to give one more to him but I was under fire so I just capped. We're friends now, and we often join many-flag no-supply pro-battles and go together - beautiful what happens when you do a favour to someone else. Many people don't appreciate Isida's in MM, but my philosophy is to essentially always give the flag to any nearby Isida unless they're doing something like multing or talking badly on the chat.

Nope. Rounding, you have 100K exp. x5, that is 500K exp. Since he said x5 MORE exp, it's correct - I said it wrong in my post. It's either x6 your current exp, or x5 more exp than you have now. Just a different wording.

?? Wouldn't slower download speed mean that you get slower input from the server, meaning less fps?

Wow! After trying the HTML5 browser version, I liked the look but I was getting excessive lag. Then I remembered the graphics settings... I turned everything off (including the skybox) and woah! I'm averaging 60 fps! Browser Flash was giving me average 15 fps with all graphics turned off. So, decided to test my internet. Results (speedtest on Google): 1.07 mbps download, 0.21 mbps upload Yes, you read that right. And I'm getting 60 fps! I've never played Tanki this smoothly, and I'm getting better results in MM. Turns out it was a good update. It didn't fix MM, but it sure made it a whole lot better because of no lagging.

Woa woah woah Romeo, getting a bit ahead of yourself? Even if you bought a kit with TKs at Brig, you'd have to earn 6x more experience than you have now to reach that rank. If you don't want to use real money, you'd have to gain 8x more exp than you have! Slow it down, get some M2s before you decide about M3s! Edit: also can I point out I'm significantly over halfway to Brig? almost halfway to

As of yet, I have not discovered any way to leave a group. Is this a bug?

Express your blind absolute rage of the overpowered Hunter Tank

You're one to talk. How can you stop a Viking OD? EASY! The amount of times I've done it is shocking. Let's be honest, what are the most used turrets with Viking? Hammer, Thunder, and Striker. Granted, Hammer is a bit harder. But I've played games where I've caused a Striker M3/Viking M3 to die when using it's OD, without mine. Splash damage - lethal to Viking. Heh, I didn't even have protection against the Striker! But with an M3 medium hull I can just press right up against a OD'd Striker/Thunder and he'll die - assuming I'm shooting at him. It's completely useless in semi-close quarters and the chances to get more than one kill with a Viking OD/splash turret at long range more than once in a game is sooo unlikely. Regardless, if you see a Viking with OD activated in your base, you can rest assured that half your team will immediately open fire on them - I delight in one-shotting people who just activate their OD with Shaft. But is a lone Viking going to withstand heavy fire from essentially everyone long enough to get lots of kills? On any decently aware team, it shouldn't happen. -
Well, if it's a no-supplies battle I just give it to an Isida - guaranteed pet, super helpful :P If it's MM, most of the time I'll just cap regardless of whether I took it, because most players don't assume you'll give it to them and just keep playing.

I don't know the link to the old HTML5 version, but I knew that Flash browser just reroutes to that I so thought you would figure out to just sign in on old HTML5 <_<

Go here: tankionline.com/flash/ Sign in, check/buy what kits you want, then go back to new HTML5 and use them.

I cannot take a screenshot or a video, but I have found that if you are using Vulcan and you die with your barrels spinning, they will continue spinning and shooting (but not damaging) when you are a ghost. That means that when you materialize, you need to not only deal with the spin-up time, but also the slow-down time. This is a huge disadvantage when an enemy is approaching and you need to spin-up fast.

I have 4 M3s, lots of M2s, tons of drugs, tons of batteries. I don't use my drugs, I don't use my batteries. Actually, I don't even use my account.
-
Good choice. As I said, when you get it, let me know, I'll teach you how to dominate as a mobile sniper.
-
That's the catch.

So you want your negligence in Tanki to drain your wallet? Being P2W should make you even MORE careful with your crystals! If you mess up F2P, you can just start over. If you mess up P2W, you lost real money on it. That's bad. What has our society come to!
-
-93 Whaaaat happened? @Zekrom, this was before your time if I may so, but me and a couple others (@maryam98, @Merovingian, @BRO0088, @Angelina_27) took this battle down from -800 to +30. Then I left, and ya'll botched it xD

Tsk tsk, waste of crys. You should take my account @H.95 as an example. It only has Vulcan/Titan. Well, actually, it has Gauss because I bought it when it came out, and it has Magnum and Wasp because I plan on using the account for parkour with a Wasp M0 instead of M1. But all of those are not MUed, so it comes to a total of ~1K crystals extra. Anyways, the account has Vulcan/Titan M1 5/10 (going on 6/10 for both of them) and 500-1K of all supplies. It also has 17% Shark, 11% Lion, and 11% Badger protections. It's a good account, and I've done it F2P going 0.7 supplies a minute (my usage was rather high by my standards at first but now I rarely use a supply - if you didn't figure out, I don't drug, which is why I do bad in MM on this account, M3s notwithstanding). Just to point out - I'm on track to have M2s at a rank when some M1s aren't even unlocked yet. #F2PWorksIfYouDon'tSquanderYourCrystals

Go with Chiro, unless you're going to be a noob and camp :P If you feel up to the task of gaining skill with Shaft as a mobile sniper, you can dominate. If you're too lazy, go with Mountain and dominate the meteorite golds. But Don't. Get. Stalker. But if you're set on Striker, at least get Stalker not Raider.
-
Chiropractor. Definitely. You'll destroy, if you get a bit of skill. Let me know when you get it, I'll take you under my wing and show you a few things :)

I'm going to do the same:
