Moved my vote from "on edge" to "hate it"

Two very important points to add: 1. The arrival of TX significantly cut the TO playerbase. To many players, the creation of TX meant that Alternativa was moving on to TO and TO would soon be abandoned, so they stopped playing because they thought the game was actually dead. Instead, TO proved to be more popular than TX due to a variety of reasons, both foreseen and unforseen, and the devs were stuck with a game that they planned to kill. 2. Flash gaming itself died. The late 2000s to early 2010s were the high time for adobe flash games. Currently, the video game industry has developed to the point where other games simply outclass TO, and that there are now many many shooter MMO games out there. The game's simply outdated.

System.out.println("Hello World!");

Those links don't work. I tried doing this and the accounts failed to become linked through invitation.

The error occurs less frequently when your computer just restarts, but after 20 minutes of playing, the game begins to crash over and over again.

Thank you! However, I don't have to pay taxes. PBM will not be allowed to add a positive to this curse.

Something will be needed to be done to reload time as well. Though, I think it would be best for TO to stop introducing things that can easily one shot any hull.

The issue is that for everybody there's a 50% chance your get kicked out from a battle while you are loading into it because of the issue. So every time you enter a battle, it's really the same thing as flipping a coin to see if an error occurs.

Wow I've been around long enough to see Cedric first join, then leave, then join again, then leave again.

Same. My posts are merely criticizsms of the decision, no vulgarities, nothing out of the bounds of the rules. Stop deleting my posts, which accurately reflect the sentiments of numerous players given the amount of likes they get.

I'm not sure whether to put this in Forum Games or in Game Discussion, but I figured that more people will read this if it's in Game Discussion than there would be for Forum Games, this idea/simulation would be more successful in the Game Discussion topic. The topics discussion in the Tanki Senate will only be related to the game, so I guess it technically can fit under game discussion. Welcome to the Tanki Senate The tanki senate is a place where players can debate on hot issues regarding to the game. I will be the sole moderator for now, in order to ensure civil discourse and order (of course only the mods can actually ban people). A lot of people are frustrated by the developers' decisions, but we have to understand that the developers deserve the respect of the playerbase and that, ultimately, the developers have complete power over their decisions. On the other hand, players can use this Senate perhaps as a way to gain traction for support on a lot of hot issues that they feel strongly about. Instead of raging at devs in the complaint book, which doesn't help anyone, players should be able to start a debate on an issue here. I don't know, really this is all a test/simulation, but I will be more than delighted if this works out in the end. You can participate just to have a good time. This topic will constantly be edited and changed over time as the TO issues are always changing. Often times, there will be debates and votes on planned updates (I will change the polls on the main topic so we can have a vote on issues). Also, you can open debate on a certain issue by introducing a bill to the floor. A bill is basically a change you want to see implemented within TO - more on that later. If you want to join the Senate, please PM me on my private message, or leave a comment below. [HELP HOW DO SPOILERS WORK] Title: An Act to Repeal Smart Cooldowns Preamble *just give a few short sentences defending why you believe in your bill*: Whereas Smart Cooldowns have been in the game for 5 years, players are still able to easily acquire all 3 supplies at the same time due to the introduction of drones and overdrives. This makes spawn killing a major issue in the game, because with smart cooldowns, newly spawned players can only drug 1 drug at a time, unable to counter incoming druggers. Section 1 (now list what the intricate plan of the Bill): The Smart Cooldowns Update is hereby repealed Section 2: All players will now receive a twenty second cooldown after a certain supply has been used up. Section 3 (concessions are allowed): Players will be unable to drug while having spawn protection. and so and so forth, as many sections you think your bill needs [/spoiler] Voting: How voting works is quite straightforward. When I decide that the debating period is over (I will indicate how much time for debate is allotted when a bill is introduced), we will move onto voting. I will open a poll at this time. It's either a yes or no question. For virtually all polls, more than 50% "yes" means the bill passes, any less (or equal to 50%) means the bill fails. However, for rescinding updates that developers have already made, a 2/3rds majority is needed to delete an update (So more than 66% needs to agree that an update is garbage). Please only vote if you are seated. Please only debate if you are seated as a Senator. PM me if you want to be added to a Senate seat. You may resign your seat by PMing me or by being inactive for 10 straight votes. Senate Seats (currently seating 20): 1. President Pro Tempore Senator sensei_tanker 2. Currently, I'm not done editing this topic, but I will post this so we can fill up some Senate seats as quick as possible.

how hard is it for the devs to add these lighting effects?

We've all been complaining to the developers about this. This error is due to some bug in HTML5, so the only way to fix it is to play Flash. Otherwise, you're out of luck.

ok but i have the ability to ban/mute anyone include maf and cedric debono /pBM has to eat the cake i just made for them

I think the biggest concern over self-driving cars is that people are afraid of being punished (in this case death or severe injuries) for something they aren't necessarily at fault. With regular cars, responsible drivers rarely get into accidents as compared to irresponsible drivers, and many people feel that irresponsible drivers "get what they deserve" in a sense if they are involved in an accident. Although the risk with self-driving cars is definitely significantly lower than that of manually-driven cars, people aren't rational when it comes to these types of decisions. They would rather be given more control in their own fate instead of handing it to a machine, where every time you start the car, there is always that same probability of certain death not at your own hands. To be honest, I don't see the future of personal transportation in cars, although self-driving cars for automated shipping is feasible.

TO right now

I found Semyon Kirov's instagram... very interesting content. It appears to me that he's aged just as well as the game has.

A good idea.

here lies Tanki Online 2008-2020

I would only accept this sort of change if the devs didn't make this P2W (so supply modules don't have to be "upgraded" through parts found in containers) Though a cool similar idea would be to bring back the "Infinite Supply Pass" from a Christmas like 6 years ago.

@semyonkirov

he was the heart and soul of the game.

Bro now Tanki is trying to shoot itself in the foot. Turret alterations are being taken out of the garage and put into containers. I think it's time Tanki has a new lead developer, none other than our own Semyon Kirov. In the past 5 years, pony tail boy has been shooting Tanki's foot repeatedly with updates that no one is clamoring to see, and ignoring good ideas that wouldn't harm game balance like weather mode. Get rid of ponytail boy! The devs are on their knees begging players to join HTML5, except that it is go glitched up with so many bugs that no one is able to enjoy HTML5 at all... why don't they spend time fixing such an issue ASAP. No, instead, they push for updates that make TO more like TX by making progression more and more based off random luck and chance. We won't want to be like TX, the clearly inferior game.

Has the playerbase been clamoring for this update? No. Are they strongly against the update? Yes. Is this a trash update and waste of Alternativa's time and resources to program? Yes. Stop it and add weather mode already.
