@Fighter ik had trouwens niet verwacht je hier nog te zien, fijn dat er nog bekende gezichten zijn

Moral of the story: beware the Shafts ?

Na 11 jaar niet het einde wat ik verwacht had... Ik heb wel gehoord van een clangenoot dat developers een manier bedenken hoe ze dit mogelijk kunnen oplossen, is in de stream van vandaag benoemd volgens mijn

Rephrasing it: I am actually going to university. Currently, I am in my 3rd year and if I can wrap up my remaining courses before August 2021 I can get my bachelors degree, after which I can continue studying for a Masters degree. If I hear the word "school" it's often put in the context of primary school or high-school, so no; I don't go to "school" anymore

I doubt whether that would work. For one, you basically forbid players to buy in-game items - since the game offers a wide range of items that can be bought, using real currencies or tankoins (which also cost money), players are being limited in their actions in-game. If someone wants to buy a bundle or tankoins, they simply cannot do that. Secondly, Tanki will be offering a game in a country where they cannot possibly earn money from. From an economical standpoint, that is disadvantageous.

I think I have a slight idea on what is happening right now: It has mostly to do with events regarding the game FIFA, which also offers loot-items in the form of Play-cards. As the game is playable at all ages, the advertisement of loot-items may persuade children and young people to buy these. However, young players are not familiar with the concept gambling and can pay for these items till they hit rock-bottom. With FIFA, this was especially the case. Therefore, the dutch government prohibited such loot-items in games. Tanki Online uses a similar structure, containers acting as loot-boxes. But since the game relies on these kind of payments, this change in governmental regulations will have a lot of impact on the game - at the same time, EA is getting their main income from people who buy their games. So whats likely happening at this moment: either TO is withdrawing from the Netherlands, because they lose a big part of their potential capital; or the game is banned by the government Then again, I am not fully up to date with what is actually happening. Hence, I am still waiting for a clear answer from helpers/developers

If so, then i expect clarification on how and why this is happening, and what can I do in my position both now and after 2020

The message does not sound too professional indeed, in a way it feels not like something developers would have written. But since there is no proof of its authenticity, i want confirmation. I spend quite the amount of money last Black Friday, I will be angry if I get to know that I basically burnt that

I got this screenshot from one of my clanmates in the discord-group of our clan; apparently this image has showed up in several other servers too as I've heard. To put it short, it mentions that it will become impossible for Dutch and Belgians to play the game after the end of 2020. After brief discussion with friends and clanmates of mine, we concluded that this image could be faked. Furthermore, it is very unlikely that the game gets to be discontinued from merely 2 countries so suddenly, especially since the European servers are settled in the Netherlands. As I am from the Netherlands, I would be incredibly upset if this message is actually true. Can people confirm if this notification is actually sent by the game's staff? I especially ask for the answers from helpers of the game, but other replies are welcome too

everybody can buy it literally a couple of weeks after, so whats the problem?

Too lazy to type previous comments again, so here some slick copy-paste-skills: I don't really care too much about this new medium hull. I don't have many problems with the overall design, even though it looks a bit awkward in a way - I do think that a more triangular-like shape would be better but this will do too I guess. Overdrive is decent to be honest, immense impact, good damage and applying cryo-effect to the enemy (I assume you can only hit one). But I do find the concept a bit random and awkward; why is there chosen for another cannon in the hull and why on earth does it fire icicles? Another question that rises is why it also applies the AP-effect to a target. I feel the same with Dictators OD freezing surroundings tanks; why does it have a secondary additional effect which is not needed at all? I myself never buy items immediately after release; I didn't feel anything special for the other hovering hulls before and after their release, but since I got an XT-skin for Hopper I basically had to buy it - have to say that I quite like it even though it is arguably overpowered.

yup, but this scenario already exists when facing multiple enemies so not much is changing. Chances that you are facing an EM-salvo w/ Crusader are not astoundingly high and when seeing one in a battle, try not to encounter them

Hi, clanmate from Tide here. Heavy Capacitors limits your functionality to mostly camping or defending. For sheer power, HC does that task best - it's also generally most used with Shaft - but it is slow and gameplay becomes boring quickly, that's why Shaft-fanatic are not fond of this augment. Shaft itself is not limited to picking one spot to snipe enemies. As sniper, you can find Shaft's full potential when going to the open field; constantly changing position and keeping sight of all corners of the battlefield improves both your individual skill-level as well as being an extremely valuable teammate to the others. An amazing and underrated augment for this job is Light Capacitors, the exact opposite of HC, as it enables you to deal solid damage within only a few seconds and has a doubled rotation-speed. Armor-Piercing-Shaft is also unbelievably strong, but is only avaiable in Ultra Containers. For quick-sniping, light hulls perform best, but if you insist on it then medium hulls may work as well. Heavy Capacitors is nowhere near a bad augment at all, but using solely HC makes you miss amazing chances and experiences that Shaft has to offer. So my advice would be: stick with Shaft and Heavy Capacitors for a while, but do not forget to try out other combinations and be open to newer things

Love the concept of Massacre and its originality, but overall execution was underwhelming. What I absolutely hate about this map are the props and structures of the map: I am getting stuck at the most nonsensical places, being pinned onto the ground randomly and getting flipped which shouldnt even be physically possible

Perfect time to start over! Let's group with some fellow tankers and start building our reign with square pigs and no Defender drones

Yo fellow epic gamer. Would you like to make a server together? Because I play solo most of the time and most of my friends abandon our server after we made it two days before

issue with Fire/Wasp was that it functioned as a big source of quick EXP-farming and was more a killfest rather than an actual battle since it didnt require any proper skill. DC and XC serve an awkward position because no one plays on these formats and they are just... there...

whose initiative was it to make an XC-gamemode anyways, because I see few to no players using this mode

Not gonna lie, if you claim to have not played in three years yet you might come back, then why are you making a topic about leaving tanki..?

thats the quaestion whats your favorite pokemon?

Props and visuals are the same, but you probably mean that Flash has brighter colours and clearer contrasts, while HTML has more notable differences in tones and opacities of colours and is somethat more foggyt (I find it hard to find the right words, but I hope y'all get what I meant). I do not find this disturbing, although I can understand that others feel different about this. In a way, it does improve the game's atmosphere as it gives more depth to a map In the future, it's very likely that developers will update the game's graphics, visuals and general appearance in-game, upcoming change in turret and hull skins forecasts this even more. EDIT: I saw your video after commenting, to be honest I do not see any big differences

Which is..? I always cut my melon into squares/cubes so that I can eat them with a fork. I do not like eating them while holding the peel. Normal coffee or iced coffee? ?

Looking on a daily basis, how often do you encounter heavily overleveled players? In a MM-battle, there are always players with a GS that is deviating from the average gear score, either too low or too high - that is how MM works. I sometimes get to join a team in which a player with 5K is present, this is also a balancing-issue, but it is an extreme scenario and does not occur that frequently.

I regularly get to join battles where supply-boxes are dropping instead of crystal boxes. I do not know if this issue only occurs on certain maps. Nonetheless, I don't mind having supply-boxes because I am convinced that crystal boxes serve absolutely no purpose apart from bringing nostalgia.
