Not quite. Let's just say he's "an insider" It's just not practical. I don't have a good camera and mic. Whenever I make an appearance I use my laptop's camera and mic, so the quality is less than stellar. What's bought will remain in the user's garage.

===UPDATE=== Hey all. i've just uploaded the review for September. Check it out here:

Yeah, like I'm hiding nukes lol. It's here, but the write-ups are only visible to members who have bought the book.

That's cos he's a showoff lol. Just kidding.

They still need to decide on it. Sorry. I'll give an answer as soon as I have one.

But that's the thing. Isida was never meant to be that kind of turret. Isida is meant as a supportive turret. Just because it's super popular in DM, doesn't mean the balance is good. It's precisely because of the imbalance that Isida is finding itself in DM battles, when it's place isn't there. Interesting question. I'll ask and try to get an official answer.

I was thinking the same. The update seems like it's forcing Isida into more of a support role, rather than an offense/defense role. Of course, I stand corrected.

"Diverse" is not "melting pot". "Melting pot" means that everything inside is getting fused together, with characteristics becoming shared. It's a game that requires quite a bit of practice to play well. And practice takes a lot of time, of which I have very little. Ratings for employee accounts are private. I don't deal with monetization, but I'm involved in marketing and PR strategy from a CM perspective, as well as communications strategy both official and unofficial.

Part of the solution is the Downloadable Game Client. We're also working on other solutions for other causes of lag

There's no specific date yet. That's the best I can give you.

Unfortunately the results of the survey are for internal use only. As for announcing the update, yes, I'll make a full announcement.

Hey all, I just want to bring to your attention two amazing articles written by two very talented writers (and players like yourselves) from our Tanki Online Newspaper. [special Review] The Game Balance Update [Opinion] The Balance Update: Assessment of Views The first article takes a more in-depth look at the changes for each piece of equipment, and explains it in a way that can easily be understood (especially by people like me who aren't too keen on stats and numbers). The second article is an honest opinion piece that highlights most of the current arguments for and against this update. Both articles are definitely a must-read. So, take a look at them and don't forget to give the authors a big like for the awesome work they've done in such an incredibly short time.

It's the only thing I can tell you. They have already made a number of improvements to the client. They'll soon get to the refresh feature.

It seems you two tend to agree that overpowered weapons are fun only for a short time. And that's precisely the reason why these changes in balance are being made. Why it took so much time, I don't know, but it needed to be done. They know and are working on it. Let's wait and see how it works out. Numbers on paper are just that. We need to play the game with the new stats before we can judge accurately. None yet. As I said earlier, let's wait and see how these changes actually affect the game. We can only know by playing. Mid October.

The equipment has been handed out. The only one still pending is the reward for @boxmaxbox because she still hasn't replied about which turret she wants. Parameters will be updated according to the update.

UPDATE: Artwork was finished today. Expect an announcement soon

Nope, not yet :) Because endgame isn't just about buying an M3 of your favorite equipment. There's more equipment to play with and level up, plus the Clan system will bring a breath of fresh air to the endgame.

The reason Tanki X is using a downloadable client is because we wanted to avoid all the hassles and inconveniences that came with using a browser. That's also the reason Tanki Online now has a downloadable client. Devs are working on these points.

You should put those numbers in perspective by thinking about how small the Battle Mod team actually is. And it's not easy to get more staff. Sure, there are a lot of applications, but only a very small percentage are actually good Battle Mod material. A Battle Mod needs to reliable, trustworthy, impartial, and consistently available, and those are four qualities that are difficult to find in one person.

You make a fair point. I'll make sure the devs see this.

I'm definitely a foodie. As I've said before, I even edit a food guide every year (will start working on this year's edition in mid-October in fact). As for vegetarians fully enjoying Italian cuisines, I honestly have my doubts. That said, I've read of a company who have managed to reproduce the exact taste and nutritional value of a cheese burger, but using purely vegetarian produce. But I'll believe it when I taste it. I personally am not too fond of going vegetarian, but I do appreciate the motivations of those who decide to take up this particular path in life.

Yes, it's still on. We're just waiting for the artwork to be finished. That really depends on what position you want to fill, assuming there's a vacancy for it. I'm sorry but I still don't see why a buyer should be hated for spending money on the game. To me it sounds more like a "shaming" tactic simply to stop buyers from buying crystals and getting things faster than non-buyers who have to spend time getting those crystals in-game. Quite frankly, these shaming tactics are childish. If someone refuses to buy, that's up to them and they have every right to do so without being insulted. But the same should be applicable for people who want to buy.

Let's try to avoid discussing politics and such issues in here. It's not a pleasant subject in this case, and can potentially lead to some uncomfortable conversations ^_^

Hey all, I've been silent over the past few pages for a reason. Many of your arguments —while valid— can only be confirmed or refuted once the changes are actually in the game, so it's pointless for me to get into such conversations and cause people undue frustration. Additionally, while I have answered a number of questions, for some of your other ones I need to get feedback from the devs. On a final note, I'm making note of all your comments, both positive and critical, and passing on the information to the devs. Bear in mind that I do not make any decisions when it comes to what gets implemented in the game and what stays out. My only role here is to be a bridge between you and the devs. I bring your arguments to them, and their arguments to you.
