    Balance changes for Turrets, Alterations and Overdrives

    Tankers! Tomorrow, May 24, we’ll be rolling out some balance changes for Turrets, Alterations and Overdrives. Here are the details: Vulcan Turret damage increased by 5% for all modifications . Railgun Cooldown time is decreased by 0.3 seconds in a fully upgraded M3, and incrementally less on lower modifications. Shaft Reduced sniper shot reload time by 1 second in a fully upgraded M3, and incrementally less for lower modifications. Smoky Reduced reload time by 0.1 seconds in a fully upgraded M3, and incrementally less for lower modifications. Hammer’s “Duplet” Alteration Clip reload time increased by 10%. This means that reloading after a double shot will take longer. Hammer’s “Dragon's Breath” Alteration Now this alteration increases the vertical scatter angle by 50% and the horizontal angle by 100%. Magnum Cooldown time is decreased by 1 second for a fully upgraded M3, and incrementally less for lower modifications. Magnum’s “Automated gunpowder loading mechanism” Alteration Now additionally increases cooldown time by 20%. Magnum’s “Mortar” Alteration Direct hit damage penalty reduced from -25% to -15%. Magnum’s “Reinforced Gun Carriage” Alteration The fixed barrel angle is now 3° instead of 5°. Dictator Overdrive This Overdrive now has another distinctive feature. It freezes all enemy tanks within its area of effect. Overdrive range reduced to 15 meters. Hornet Overdrive Overdrive duration is reduced by 10 seconds. Deleted the penalty on the cooldown of Overdrive from points gained in battle. This means that now, when you activate the Overdrive, your battle points will immediately charge the ability. Wasp Overdrive The Overdrive now discharges immediately after use. This means that it will be impossible to place a second bomb after respawn. Deleted the penalty on the cooldown of Overdrive from points gained in battle. Enter the game tomorrow and give us your feedback!

    War of Super Powers

    Tankers! The War of Thrones has just ended. Now, it’s time to prepare for the new WAR — The War of Super Powers This WAR will differ significantly from the last two wars. First: Players won’t be split up into teams. Everyone will take part individually. Second: You’ll be able to choose one of three participation paints, and you’ll get to keep it… FOREVER. Moreover, you’ll be able to buy the paint at any point during the event... up to the very last day. Third: The "War of SuperPowers" will NOT be only about stars. There will be a lot of other stuff. And the prizes will be a lot more varied than before. How to participate Between 02:00 UTC on May 1st and 02:00 UTC on May 29th, you’ll be able to buy ONE of three paints: Crusher, Tarantula, and Cap. You’ll only be able to choose ONE. Once you buy one of the three paints, the other two will become unavailable. By purchasing the paint, you’ll be joining the "War of Super Powers". Note that it’s not necessary to wear the paint during the event. You just need to buy it. How to win During the event, you’ll need to complete up to six special missions. The missions are not related to each other and can be completed in any order. Each mission will reward you with special prizes. Missions must be completed in Matchmaking battles. Tasks and prizes Earn 1000 Stars*. Stars are only counted if your team wins a battle in one of the team formats — TDM, CTF, CP, RGB. Stars earned in DM and JGR do not count towards this mission. Reward — the remaining 2 event paint, yours to keep forever. Collect 50 "Nuclear energy" supplies. Reward — 100 units of each supply (excluding Gold Boxes and Batteries). Make 7 000 kills. Reward — 30,000 crystals. Destroy 40 Juggernauts. Reward — 3 containers. Maintain a K/D ratio of 1.00 or above till the end of the event. Reward — 10 gold boxes. For this mission, the K/D counter will only track how your ratio changes during the event, that is, from May 1st to May 29th (server restart times). Your KD ratio before the start of the event is not considered. Use Overdrives 100 times (in total, in any mode, including Juggernaut). Reward — 3 Weekly Containers. * Stars purchased with the Shop bundle do not count towards the War mission. If you can complete all six missions, you’ll get a super prize — the animated paint, “Thankos' Armor”. You can check your progress —as well as that of other players— on the event’s website. And don’t forget that you can join the "War" at ANY time, and your progress will still be tracked from the beginning of the month. This means that if you play during the beginning of May, and THEN decide to join the War, you’ll already have made some progress. Dates 02:00 UTC on May 1 — Event paints become available to buy. 02:00 UTC on May 29 — The "War of superpowers" ends, the event paints will be removed from sale, but will remain in garages of the players who have purchased them. May 29 — Rewards are handed out. F. A. Q I bought the Crusher paint by mistake. I want the Tarantula. How do I change my paint? Unfortunately you cannot change your paint once you’ve purchased it. However, you can earn the two other paints as a reward by completing the “Collect 1000 Stars” mission. If I bought the paint in the middle of the month, from when will my score start counting? You can join the event at any time. Your progress on the tasks will always be calculated from the beginning of the event. Do the missions have to be completed in a specific order? No, you can complete them in any order and even simultaneously. Is it necessary to perform all the missions? No, you can finish as many missions as you wish. But to get the Thankos’ Armor paint, you’ll need to finish all 6 missions. Is it possible to complete missions in PRO battles on matchmaking versions of the maps? No. Missions must be done in matchmaking battles. Does it have to be a specific battle mode? This depends on the task. For instance, the mission where you have to earn 1000 stars, you can only earn Stars in MM team battle modes like CTF, TDM, RGB and CP. Stars earned on DM and JGR will not count towards this mission.

    Tweaks to Overdrives, Turrets, and Drones

    Tankers! Tomorrow, April 26, we’ll be releasing some tweaks to overdrives, turrets, alterations and drones. Here’s what you need to know Wasp Overdrive "N2 - Bomb" During the recent festive action it was especially noticeable that the Mammoth with the activated force field can not be resisted. With this update, the Wasp bomb will completely neutralize the Mammoth Overdrive effect. Other changes to Wasp’s Overdrive: slightly increased the charging speed; the bomb will explode after exactly 3 seconds; the explosion will no longer cause damage to the tank that set the bomb. Hornet Overdrive, "Radar" Now within the first 10 seconds after activating the Overdrive, getting battle points for destroying tanks will not charge the ability. Viking Overdrive "Berserker" We've loosened this Overdrive a bit: reduced charging speed and reduced extra damage during the effect period. Dictator Overdrive "Overload" This Overdrive will have an additional beneficial effect: replenishing 50% of the Overdrive charge of all allies in the area of action, except other allied Dictators. Mammoth Overdrive "AT-field" In addition to the change associated with the Wasp bomb mentioned above, the Mammoth Overdrive will stop dealing damage to enemies behind obstacles. This means that the killing effect will only work in line of sight and not through walls. Juggernaut His Overdrive now restores his health completely, 100%. Increased rate of fire in both shooting modes. The radius of influence of the Overdrive on surrounding tanks is reduced, but in exchange the repulsive force is increased. Vulcan Gun damage on all versions increased by 10%. At the same time, the penalty for damage after overheating is increased — now, instead of 30% of the base damage, Vulcan will deal just 25%. Alteration for Thunder "Sledgehammer rounds” Now reduces reload time by 25% instead of 30% — this means that the rate of fire will decrease slightly. Magnum The minimum and medium splash damage radius increased by 1m. This means that the explosion will be more effective. Shaft Sniper damage increased by 10% on all modifications. Alteration for Shaft "Heavy capacitors" Bonus to scope damage reduced from 30% to 25%. Alteration for Shaft "Rapid-fire mode” Now with this device, in addition to other effects, the maximum sniper damage is reduced by 30%. Drone "Camper" The bonus to the recharge rate of supplies increased by more than 2 times. Come to the game tomorrow and check out the changes! Patch notes can be found here.

    Patch Update #554 - Released 25th April 2019

    Patch Update #554 - Released 25th April 2019 Changes in overdrives: Wasp "N2-Bomb”: Now neutralizes the active Mammoth Overdrive; Fixed the timing of the explosion. Now it happens exactly 3 seconds after activation; Increased charge rate from time 800 o/s to 900 o/s. Hornet "Radar” Now does not gain Overdrive by getting points from destruction within 10 seconds after activation. Viking "Berserk” Reduced Overdrive charge rate from 500 o/s to 400 o/s; Reduced the number of battle points for Overdrive charge from 600 to 500; Reduced bonus damage on Overdrive for all turrets. Dictator "Reboot” The overdrive adds 50% overdrive charge to all allies caught in the activation range, except other Dictators; Increased the number of points in battle to charge the Overdrive from 600 to 700 points. Mammoth "AT-field” Now the action loses its ability when caught in Wasp’s N2 bomb, but ignores the damage from it. Juggernaut Overdrive Now restores health to 100%; Reduced the range of the Overdrive; Overdrive recoil force increased. Vulcan Increased damage by 10% for all mods: М0: 300 → 330; М1: 397.06 → 436.766; М2: 441,18 → 485.298; М3: 529,41 → 582.351; М3+: 600 → 660.

    Tankers! Tomorrow, April 11th, we’ll be implementing some changes in Vulcan’s balance, as well as making some tweaks on Drones and Alterations. Here are the details: Vulcan With the update, Vulcan will deal 70% less damage when overheating due to prolonged firing. Additionally, for all models, Vulcan’s barrels will take half a second less to reach maximum spinning speed, which means the turret will start firing sooner. Why we’ve done this: We’ve been aware of Vulcan’s issues for some time, but just reducing overheating damage wouldn’t have solved the problem fully. So we decided to change the mechanics of the turret itself. We tried several options and decided to make the necessary changes to the overheating mechanic as described. This makes Vulcan a viable option on any hull. In the near future, we might need to make further tweaks to this turret. We’ll keep monitoring the situation and listening to your feedback. Alterations Vulcan: Incendiary band: Damage penalty increased from -10% to -20%. Shooting speed regulator: Damage penalty reduced from -25% to -20%. Striker: Missile launcher "Hunter": Turret reloads faster by 40% after firing a volley. Thunder: Subcaliber Rounds: Removed the recoil penalty. Shaft: Rapid-fire mode: added a penalty of 15% on the rate of energy recovered after shots. That means that the tempo between shooting series is reduced. Drones All drones will have a new feature — a permanent boost of 1% to 5% to turret damage and hull defense. These buffs will only be active if the Drone has batteries. The presence of the Drone by itself is not enough. "Driver" Drone: Recharge time increased from 12 to 20 seconds. Supplies - Added 11th April Now, Repair Kit, DD, DA, or Speed Boost have their respective visual effects when activated, which will show up on the tank at any distance. This will provide valuable tactical and strategic information for the attentive tanker. Enter the game tomorrow and check out the update!

    Overdrives are here!

    Tankers! After a very successful weekend where players got to test and have fun with Overdrives, this game-changing new feature is finally here! Here are some important points you need to know about Overdrives. What Your hull’s Overdrive is like a special superpower that charges over time. It will unleash an offensive or defensive power that —if used at the right moment— can literally change the tide of battle. How Each hull will have its own Overdrive and each Overdrive is unique in its own way. When used in conjunction with other Overdrives as a team, the results can be devastating. Why Overdrives will change the game as we know it. But that’s a good thing. An online game like Tanki Online can only remain relevant if it constantly offers new challenges to its players. Yes, Overdrives will force you to rethink your strategies, to move out of your comfort zone, to adapt. Are you up to the challenge? List of Overdrives

    PRO Battles Latest News

    Tankers, As you know, yesterday we were forced to take the PRO Battles feature offline due to issues with lag. Although we’ve made good progress, the problem is not yet fully resolved. However the situation appears to be more stable, so we'll be attempting to bring pro battles back online with tomorrow's server restart. However, this will be a test. We will observe the results, and decide whether to keep them online or take them offline again for further fixes. Thank you for bearing with us while we work to resolve this unpleasant issue.
