This is actually intended to simplify the game. Yes, this was definitely needed.

DM Tournaments just weren't interesting enough to people, that's why we removed them. We're bringing back the matchmaking mechanism behind them, but probably not for DM Tournaments, rather for official clan battles. And no, you don't come across as disrespectful. :) Actually Paysafecard is working again.

Yes, we're aware that the transition might be a bit tough for some, which is why we added the extra Pro Battle Pass days. I understand change is hard. Just try to bear with us please. We're overhauling something that has been in the game for a long time. But just because it's been in the game for a long time, doesn't mean it was 100% good. We're trying to finally get it right, and it's not easy. I hope we can get all of you to support this.

We'll see how the system evolves and make adjustments accordingly.

I really have no idea. But as Hazel said, missions should be playable in default play.

This is also a side-benefit of the update. We cannot just go and kill off supplies, but if more people start playing pro battles, the drugging will hopefully become more manageable.

Clan system, matchmaking system and others that we've already spoken about, as well as others that we still cannot mention.

Reply from : "That will be really weird. If that will keep occurring, map related mission will be removed. We created missions to be doable during normal play. If they will be no longer doable, we'll change them"

It might be hard to see the sense in this update right now, but when considering the upcoming updates it will make more sense.

You will get it even if you don't have a pro pass. But you need to log in to claim it. No, not necessarily. I will ask and get you an answer.

ADDITIONAL INFORMATION: To make the transition smoother, for every day that you log into the game over the next seven days, you will receive an additional day of PRO Battle Pass

Tankers, Tomorrow’s server restart will bring some important changes to the battle creation system. These changes are intended to make the current system easier to understand and adopt both for new, inexperienced users, as well as for existing users. We want players to be able to jump right into a battle without having to worry about which map or mode to choose, or how to set the rank bracket or number of players. For this reason, the “Create Battle” button will now become a Premium/PRO Pass feature. Non-Premium and non-PRO Pass users will be able to join battles by clicking the “Battle” button, which will take them to a battle that best fits their rank. IMPORTANT: To make PRO Battle Passes more accessible to those of you who have low level accounts and are already familiar with the game’s features, we’re making the PRO Battle Pass significantly cheaper. Passes will start at a price of 500 crystals for Recruits, and will increase in price by 150 crystals with every rank until reaching the original price of 5000 crystals for the Legend rank. Additional Legend rank ups will NOT increase the price of the Pass. The maximum price will remain 5000 crystals. How the system works and why we’re changing it Since the introduction of the “Battle” button, our statistics have clearly shown that the vast majority of our players prefer to use this mechanism to join battles. This button will send the user to a non-PRO battle that fits his or her rank. However, players often use the “Create Battle” button to create special non-PRO battles, such as 1 vs 1 duels and unofficial format battles (such as Save the Gold and Tanki Sumo). Since these are non-PRO battles, players who press the “Battle” button will often end up in these very specific battles, ruining the fun for the organizers. But after the update, all battles created with the “Create Battle” button will be PRO battles, which means the “Battle” button will never send a player to one of those battles. All non-PRO battles will be standard battles with a 15 minute time limit. What happens if you press the “Battle” button and there isn’t an existing battle suitable for your rank? If that happens, the system will automatically create a standard battle for you, and start sending other players your way. Will you still be able to join battles from the battle list, or invite your friends to the battle where you’re playing? Yes. After the update is rolled out, you will still be able to join any battle in the list. These will all be standard 15 minute battles that were created by the Quick Battles mechanism (the “Battle” button), and if you’re in a battle, you can always invite your friends to join it, assuming there are open slots. We understand that this is a big change for the game, and that it alters an aspect that has been in the game since the very beginning. However, this is a step in the direction of simplifying the game for new users, as well as working towards the goal of eliminating mults and saboteurs by randomizing access to regular battles. Of course, following the update, we will be monitoring the situation very closely and making adjustments as required. ADDITIONAL INFORMATION: To make the transition smoother, for every day that you log into the game over the next seven days, you will receive an additional day of PRO Battle Pass

That would be a bit too specific I think, and might open up a can of worms. Let's see how it goes this time around. The paint will leave your garage if you're not one of the finalists. Nope, disagree completely. It's perfectly possible to shoot cool vids with modeless spec. Just a small clarification, I think presentation IS important. Don't leave anything to chance. Use good (and royalty-free) music and do your best for your video to look top notch. In the end, every little bit counts.

About the issue of moderators doing jobs outside of their groups, that's definitely not gonna happen — I expressly forbid it from happening, so if you wanna blame someone, blame me. If for example wiki mods started getting involved in chat modding (unless they're already part of the group) it would be a mess. Same with chat mods and forum mods. As has already been said, there are protocols and procedures, and a huge list of rules and regulations that cannot be taken lightly. Believe me, if that had to happen, YOU would be the first to start complaining about the unfairness. So, things stay as they are.

Actually if you took the time to get to know properly, you'd find a very caring and helpful person. The problem here is that the majority of people who speak about are those who have had a negative experience due to their breaking the rules. Nobody is leaving. The company is opening a role within the upper management sphere to bring together community management, marketing, PR etc. If anything, this advert is a clear indicator of the company's growth. And it's posted by an anonymous employee, which means ANYONE could've posted this, including a player, or my grandmother from the grave (if she could use a computer in her current state). Please don't take this things seriously, and most of all, don't post them here, because it might make you look gullible, and I really don't want that to happen to you. Actually no, you don't have the right to ask about who's getting employed and why. Your rights are limited to the EULA, and that's that. Having said that, I still did you the courtesy of replying to your message, so let's leave it at that. Let me add something here. The EN community is known for its policy of openness and dialogue. In other communities, a good chunk of what has been posted by players in this and other threads —criticizing the game, the management, and even myself— would've been censored. But that's not how we do things in the English community. We let you speak, unless you're overly toxic. We only stop the worst type of abuse. That said, some people will get offended. That's understandable. But when that happens, the "Block" option is the tool you need to use. If someone upsets you, block them for good and the problem goes away, while we retain the community's openness and dialogue. Keep that in mind and you won't have any problems here. And by the way, for the record, I get flak both on the forums and in private messages, and yet I've never blocked anyone. Sure, taking flak is part of my job, but I still have the option of blocking people, and yet I don't. So, I suggest you remember that sticks and stones may break your bones, but words will never touch you.

You're welcome Not really. I'm not like that. We give premium because we want to make your return to the game easier, because obviously we want you to continue playing. Additionally, Premium gives you extra crystals and extra experience points, which is what you need as a player who has returned after a long time away. Will look into it. The special bundle will be in the shop for the duration of the promotion. After that it will disappear. Obviously, if you buy it, the contents will remain in your garage till you consume them all :) If a tank is killed too frequently, the points it awards to the tanks that kill it will be reduced with every kill. Bear in mind that the mechanism is under close scrutiny right now. Devs are looking for possible loopholes as well as dysfunctions, and will act accordingly. I'm pretty sure the answer is no. See my reply to @BlackWasp777 in this same post.

There's no set date yet.

If that tank was destroyed too many times within a set time frame, then it will give out less XP per kill.
