    Ideas for Turrets!

    LMAO HOW? I just cconfirmed it, i never knew that. Dude you can lock on people who are miles aways from you and not suffer any loss in damage. How is it possible that it's a medium-range turret tho? The remote rocket alt laughing in the corner: Sure bro, I always knew striker made sharp cuts Use uranium for maximum experience Striker pretty much looks like what the topic starter described tho lol

    Ideas for Turrets!

    It's a long range turret, It has a ''scope mode'', It fires explosive projectiles with splash damage, Its projectiles have a non-instantaneous flight speed. :D

    Fix the tanks that fly

    @Son_Goku, dude it would be better if you remained in your anime world. You're misunderstanding people here, and are arguing for no reason at all because of this. The definition that I quoted is SPY'S definition, NOT MINE. I'm glad that you're raising points that show how this definition is vague and can give rise to ambiguities. I fully support the definition that you gave, and that was my whole point during my whole discussion with that guy. I argued that the definition that he provided is too gave and that the least that he can do is to show the other definitions as well, such as yours. Wanna respond to your other points but am tired of explaining things over and over again, maybe later hhh

    Keep the realm of subjectivity out of this matter. It doesn't matter how you define 'cheating', your opinion is irrelevant in this matter. What matters is the objective definition of 'cheating', as someone just provided. We can deduce whether or not something is considered as 'cheating' by deducing whether or not that action fits the definition of 'cheating'. Moreover, it might be possible that selfing was added to the game also to regain one's health back because as we know, many players used to self when a gold box took around one minute to drop long ago. We see a similar behaviour in esports. Likewise, it is possible that camping is an unintended mechanic that is still practiced. It might be possible that the devs wanted this game to be a lively one and not consisting of blokes who sit their fat bums waiting for their opponents to make the 1st move. These are mere suppositions, as you might know and this is why, we have to look at facts to judge the nature of this act. If you look at the definition of 'cheating', camping would indeed be considered as cheating. Cheating has many meanings, and the one that you mean, is probably 'to violate rules dishonestly' (merriam-webster) but the one that I mean is the one that spy gave, which by that definition, makes camping an act of cheating. Don't worry, I'm not a fool, I was just playing with that guy, cuz he gave a vague definition, which isn't complete.

    I feel obliged to respond to this: For the last time (really), I will answer you on this thread: I consider camping as more of an unfair practice than as a dishonest one. Let's take your definition once again: To 'act dishonestly or unfairly in order to gain an advantage, especially in a game or examination.' Notice the use of the word 'or' in your definition. From what we can deduce, as soon as you fulfill one of these two conditions (either act dishonestly or act unfairly), to gain an advantage, you are cheating. [Notice that I used the word 'or' too]. Now, for the (I forgot the number)th time, I'm telling you that camping provides the camper with an unfair advantage, as the other player (unless he is a camper too) will be forced to nearly always make the first move, thus exposing him to the camper's shots each time he does so. Therefore, as the camper is playing in a way that gives him an unfair advantage, he is acting unfairly, and if he acts unfairly, then he is cheating, by your, your and YOUR definition that you provided, word for word. As one of the two conditions have been fulfilled, camping is considered by your definition as 'acting unfairly' and therefore as cheating. Now for the other condition: . I sincerely think that you're mistaken here. I don't even need to confirm it. I think that many, if not most experienced xp/bp players consider camping as an act of dishonesty. You can make a poll on your channel to see or you can ask anyone in any tanki chat or server about this. Can't understand why you can't understand me.

    Ah, dear fellow tanker, i just explained how camping, by your definition, is equal to cheating. I won't argue anymore because i feel like your responses are AI-generated at this point. I explained clearly, why your definition of the word 'cheat' is not enough, and the least that you can do is to add the remaining definitions of this word but you still don't recognise its vagueness. If you don't change it or if you aren't cautious enough in the future, such a vague definition can give rise to ambiguities.

    Fix the tanks that fly

    I used the definition that you provided, which states that to cheat means 'to act dishonestly or unfairly in order to gain an advantage in a game or examination'. Going by your logic, camping is cheating as it is an unfair practice and dishonest, because then one player is forced to always make the first move, thus exposing him. In fact: Negative connotation denotes an unfair or dishonest act, which is cheating. As i said, camping has always been regarded as an unfair or dishonest practice by most xp/bp players, It has and is always seen to be more than 'just a boring strategy'. Make a poll on your youtube channel to see, fellow tanker. Let's take another example, such as the stability and maneuverability of tanks in this game. Hovering hulls provide a maneuverability that tracked hulls don't. This is something well known, as mobile users often prefer to use hovering hulls because they are easier to move into different positions. Same goes for the stability of hovering hulls. If a wasp is driving in a big circular path at full speed and receives a shot from railgun, coming from the center of the circle, it is highly likely that it will get flipped. However, in the case of hopper, it is highly unlikely that it will get flipped. Therefore, it can concluded that hovering hulls provide some kind of unfair advantage over tracked hulls and hence, using hovering hulls is indeed a form of 'legal cheat' because one acts unfairly in order to play better when one uses hovering hulls (hovering hulls provide an unfair advantage over tracked ones -> Using hovering hulls makes you act unfairly because you have an unfair advantage -> hence, you are cheating). The rate at which hovering hulls glitch through tanks is more than that of tracked hulls, from my personal experience. My point is that the definition of 'cheat' that you provided is too vague and can be used to make the case for seemingly impossible cases. You can use the back of your hull to block tanks. Try it as soon as possible. It is insanely difficult to glitch through tanks from the back. The same applies for dead tanks that rest upright on the floor. However, i do agree that during really close encounters, tanks glitch through each other. This paragraph of yours leads us to one obvious question: Where do you draw the line that considers selfing as cheating but not camping? Using our fellow tanker's definition, both of them are considered as cheating.

    Re-read my sentence, omg. Nearly every hovering hull can do that but only some tracked hulls can do it. Ever tried to glitch through a tank with wasp, hornet, viking, titan, etc? Pretty impossible, right? Only dictator and hunter can do it relatively consistently. Notice the use of the word ''most'' in my sentence. Hence, this point is valid Since when? Dude, asks anyone from the XP/BP community (excluding you) about this practice, or make a poll on your youtube channel to see whether or not this practice is fair. It surprises me that you, as an XP/BP player uttered this sentence. The word camper is nearly always used with a negative connotation. Prove me wrong? How i wish you did.

    Fix the tanks that fly

    Hol' up, i say, hol' up. Well, i would argue that cheating legally is indeed possible because by definition, it is possible to act unfairly while not doing anything illegal. For example, most hovering hulls can glitch through tanks when running head-on towards other tanks; something most tracked can't do. Another example would be camping, which is an unfair practice but still legal. Gotcha or not?
  14. Not necessarily. It can be chat mods too, but i feared that this would be an additional responsibility for them. I didn't intend to mean helpers specifically. I wanted additional positions to be created for helping new players and this responsibility can be extended to social media too (another helper position, if u want to call it this way). I didn't know about the helper part though, and thanks for letting me know. HOWEVER, there are two possibilities now: 1. Either the rules change so as to allow helpers to help the new players. 2. Or mods have an additional chat to take care of. In what world do you live, fellow tanker? There's no such channel in the game. I even made a new account to confirm that. Here's a screenshot that i took while i was in the new acc btw: https://ibb.co/Pcvn2yy Again, new players are complaining. I only want to facilitate the situation of new players and what I'm asking for, is indeed possible to realise. As if you can argue with that.

    Addition of a ''QnA'' chat section exclusively for new players.

    I want a chat to be added EXCLUSIVELY for new players. ''Why though?'', ''Doesn't the general chat already exist? '', ''Doesn't the discord server already exist?'' and ''Can't they just ask their questions there?'' are the kinds of negative iq answers that forum mods will most likely give me but before discarding this suggestion as redundant, please hear me out: Being a new player is frustrating as we all know how useful tanki tutorials are (they are probably trying their best though, don't get me wrong). The best option is to ask questions in the ''New players'' or ''general'' chat but most of the time, doing so is as good as talking to a mirror, and even this sometimes has a better probability that you will get an answer. The issue with the discord server is that not everyone has a discord account and creating one just to ask tanki-related question sounds stupid. The reason that i sound mad is because i think that i already made this suggestion and it was rejected, despite it being a good post. If this was the case, how can I claim that my judgement was better than those of the mods? Well, I invited acquaintances (absolute newbies to this game) to play this game but all of them left, deeming the instructions as ''unclear''. They left because of the difficulty in understanding tanki concepts, and each time they had a question, they would get frustrated (they didn't want to text me every time to ask about a game-related issue). They most probably didn't even know about the existence of the chats. My suggestion is that new players get a pop-up each time they enter the game, showing them visually the path to this chat section or how to access it, telling them that this is the place to go each time they have a question. To avoid spamming, a pop-up would ask them to end each question with a question mark, thus denoting a question and that only a few selected people will be allowed to answer them. I can volunteer to be such a person if this gets implemented. The name of this chat can be ''NewPlayersQnA''.
  16. Welp, ik that there'll be one lucky russian tanker who'll be bragging about getting a skin from a normal cont lol. Otherwise i like it and also the new mobile UI seems nice to me

    Summer eSports TankiFund 2023

    Here is my personal quantitative analysis of the new fund with respect to the last one: In terms of containers, we have 39 ultra containers, as compared to 30 in the last fund. We also have a staggering amount of 105 containers, as compared to only 30 last time. (DAYUM) [+1] In terms of paints, we have 11 paints, as compared to 0 in the last fund. [+1] (I think that they'll look good on LC skins because most of them have a light tone) In terms of skins we have only 2, as compared to 6 in the last fund. [-1] (I love the new hunter gt) In terms of augments, we have 2 as compared to 5 in the last fund. [-1] (Hunter driver is nice, ngl) In terms of nuclear supps, we have 4 this time, instead of 1 in the last fund. [+1] (Welp) In terms of skin conts, we have 1 as compared to 0 in the last fund. [+1] (Hope i don't get hopper xt tho) In terms of module, we have 3, as compared to 1 in the last fund. [+1] Don't get me wrong, arma is good but old tankers must also realise that new tankers have to buy 3 out of 4 module slots now) In terms of drones, we have 0, instead of 2 in the last fund. [-1] (Bad) In terms of battle passes, we have 1 this time, instead of 0 in the last fund. [+1] (That's an objectively good thing, lmao) In terms of +1 million, we have 5 this time instead of 0 last time. [+1] (Not bad) Hence, I think that thIs fund is worth it. However, I'm sure that the fund will reach 45M or so (in fact, it's 40M + 5M from the fund's prizes), the only challenge will be to get to the additional 5M but again, this fund has a duration of 24 days whereas the last fund had only 17 days, so, I hope that we can reach 50M by this date. If what you only think is that the fund is worse than last time, please keep 2 things in mind: 1. Tanki can't just hand out skins and pulsars just like that. If every fund we have 6 skins and 5 pulsars, tanki will run out of pulsars and skins to hand out and then you'll rant on about the fact that tanki is not innovating. 2. The last fund happened during tanki's birthday. It is possible that cool rewards like the 6 skins and the 5 pulsars were in the fund for that special occasion. Think twice before hating on this fund, fellow tankers. This is arguably the best tanki fund ever.

    Clan Paints and coin boxes

    Firstly, as someone mentioned here, post this instead in the ''suggestion section''. Secondly, when you do it, keep in mind that these are two separate ideas (Addition of a clan paint and return of coinboxes). Each post should contain only one idea, so, don't forget to make 2 different posts for these ideas.

    Tankoins refund

    Take this as a reminder to not rush unnecessarily, fellow tanker!
  21. Today is the 2nd of june and i don't see such an update yet...
  22. Read the penultimate line of the announcement. The fact that items are gonna be available 7 ranks before they become available in the garage reminds one of crystal kits, given that in both cases, items were available 7 ranks earlier than they were in the garage.
  23. Nice. Missed the crystals kits a lot.
