I've been away about two months, then I'm back home so I've been trying to play for the last three days, result: never entered a single battle. Well, one battle for a few minutes three days ago, then no more. Today and yesterday I cannot even access the main screen, "SYSTEM ERROR Cannot load resources" is given immediately. Otherwise in the past it appeared when loading a battle, going to 99% then: SYSTEM ERROR. I clean cookies and cache each time, no results. Reloading many times does nothing. It has been happening for more than a year randomly, but in the last days it happened all the time so now it's impossible even to login. Firefox latest version (no extensions), Windows 10 PRO latest version, 32GB RAM.

I agree. The SYSTEM ERROR problems have been a daily plague since I came back about three months ago. Each day I get some errors and I have to reload many times to finally load a battle. But today has been really impossible so I simply quit: always SYSTEM ERROR Cannot load resources. I cannot even enter the game.

It seems I lost all my Rare containers from yesterday's prize, I just clicked to open them when the server crashed. It does not seem to me that they have been send in the garage. Is there a way I can verify that? There is something wrong because there is a yellow point beside Rare but the total is set to zero. Something is broken and the containers are now shown, so I cannot open them Update: now the yellow point is gone, and total zero is shown.

It's been happening to me too for 15 minutes (from Italy). In this exact moment I can reach it again.

Inactive accounts do not slow down the server, they are not loaded at all. They just occupy a few bytes in the users database, that's it. This is a really stupid move. I came back three months ago after being away for about 5 years. I see many people in the chat coming back after years away from the game. It's normal. Tanki is just going to lose players (and there aren't a lot as it used to be in 2016). Players with a Legend account full of MK7s, if it gets deleted, will not start again from zero. They will simply never play Tanki again. Me too, if when I logged in a few months ago I had found that my General account was deleted, I would have not spent hours again playing this game. Remember, also non paying players (or rarely paying) are fundamentals, because we make 9999 players have fun with their OP tanks. Without us the heavy spending players won't feel the benefit of their overpowerful tanks. This is a suicidal move for TANKI. You lost a lot of players and this choice won't increase them.

Smoky has been really hit hard by this patch. All my Smoky augments have been affected for worse. No patch for the actual OP augments.

SYSTEM ERROR It happens to me randomly but very often, and it does not go away for some minutes, especially at evening/night (EU zone). Sometimes after a few reloads (lasting 5 to 10 minutes) it works, sometimes I have to force cleaning cookies and cache (but it works only 50% of times). If it doesn't I just give up and try after 30 minutes or simply forget about Tanki. It happens independently from PCs or locations, it's not related to a specific PC or my home, I get it everywhere. From what I see in the chat, it happens also to many other players but they don't come here to complain (they feel it's useless probably). It's probably due to some server or bug that affects non Russian players (I suppose there are some connectivity issues).

@dhruv123456 I'm similar to your situation, I've been back about two months ago after leaving Tanki about 6 years ago (I played until the Flash version existed). I came back to find flying tanks (really horrible novelty) and a few OP turrets that let people kill someone from far away, hiding and camping. Most people do not play the battle, they just do TDM everywhere. You cannot choose the map, welcome to MM. You'll see that without all these new augments you are struggling a lot. Many battles are so unbalanced one team is just dying every 2 seconds and so most tanks abandon continually the match during all the battle. Ah, you'll have to drug constantly. Who drugs more, wins. I used to never use supplies, now I have found that the main skill to reach top-3 is to press 1-2-3-4 very fast. Team play is almost non existent. We used to chat a lot (in English) to coordinate, if you remember. Forget about it. Some tanks are so OP you cannot kill them, because they have so high protection and they can use repair every 1 second. Try to avoid them. Many people have a protection of 50% against all turrets. Exploded tanks stay in a battle so long now, you'll get stuck by them in many occasions. Some battles are so full of mines it's impossible to approach enemy's base. So camping increases. You'll see a big difference in PRO battles where no augments or supplies are allowed, so most players really suck in them, but those battles will often be plagued by flying tanks and OP turrets as well. So there is really no escape.

A new Special PRO OLD STYLE Mode with only tanks of 2014 before the introduction of flying tanks, and only old turrets of that age. No augments, no drones. Everything like the old Tanki. Then it can be customised like any other PRO battle with the option of disabling supplies and so on.

1) The destroyed tanks currently stay in the battle for too long. They should be removed sooner. 2) Destroyed tanks should be very light, so they easily move when pushed. Now very often happens that you are stuck for seconds because a destroyed tank is in front of you. That means you cannot escape and the enemy can shoot again, killing again another tank. 3) destroyed tanks should not block shoots, so the bullets should ignore them.

Juggernaut used to be a strong tank+turret, now it's really weak because it can be killed by a single attacker. Its weapon is also very bad, it's too slow, the fire should be instant. The problem is that all these new add-ons (augments, drones...) made some players more strong than a Juggernaut, so they can beat one when directly facing it. The Juggernaut just has to hide and play in defence all the time. It used to be different, when Juggernaut was invented it was really hard to kill it. At least it should have the most powerful weapon by large, a tank should always be killed with a single shot. At the moment many players just face the Juggernaut without any problem, just using drone and supplies to heal and shoot from 1 metre. I rarely see skills involved in killing a Juggernaut, it's mostly just brute force due to 9999 players and OP turrets.

The invisibility of mines has always bothered me since the first day, it's not a new problem indeed. Initially I supposed it wa a bug because it's non sense to make them invisible. Now there are always too many of them, so making them invisible too is a real problem for people that want to play actively. Of course mines are not an issue for all the campers that just sit in the same place for all the match, and we see there are many of them. Camping is a problem and many "inventions" made it worse (Magnum included). I really preferred the old tanki.

Another problem with mines is visibility. Why enemy mines are transparent until you are very close? They should be always clearly visible. What the logic of invisible mines?

I am having this problem every day I play since I came back to Tanki two weeks ago. It mostly appears when loading battles. Sometimes it is tragic (like in this moment) it's almost impossible to join a battle. My ping is very good, no problem, no lag when playing. Just entering battles is a nightmare, clearing cache sometimes fixes it, but not always and it appears again in a following battle. So it's not a solution. I'm using Firefox latest version, adblock is disabled. The only way to play seems to keep trying again and again, reloading the Loading Battle screen for many times, many minutes and maybe I'm lucky and I find myself in a battle. The first System Error is often Cannot Load Resources - ResourceBatchLoadException followed but it disappears in one second and it is followed by Lost Server Connection ControlChannelDisconnectException.

What is a MegaGold that drops in the special mode? Always 10000 crystals?

This is so true! I just came back this week after some years away from Tanki, maybe 5 years. But I already started played rarely before quitting years ago, because of the changes. It was already bad and on decline when I left, I remember they introduced the first flying tank (!!). Now I enter a battle and everybody is on drugs all the time, I don't even know how it's possible. I don't like to use supplies except the collected ones. On my main account I had upgraded to the max just two turrets and one is Isida, that is almost useless now because every time I heal a tank, it immediately uses the repair supply. They do it automatically and without any delay, they do not care I am healing them. Once there was a long cool-down so you could not drugs every 2 seconds, now it seems to me most players are constantly doped. Killing tanks is very difficult, they always heal and they always have a collection of extra protections active, constantly drugging without any pause. Usually this week I ended battles killing about 5 tanks, always less than 10, and dying usually more than 20 times, I began thinking I simply sucked and forgot how to play. Then I went to PRO battles and I lost a 20 minutes DM, me alone versus 2 players with better grade and tanks, for just 1 kill. Then I went to others PRO battles, and I saw people that without drugs did not know how to play. Strategies: I really miss that. I recall that we had great matches years ago when people actively used the chat during game to coordinate. No one was OP for drugs or doped tanks or weird stuff, some buyers simply had better tanks (drugging started already to be annoying). We often changed turrets to better coordinate, Isida became really important when introduced, because people simply did not drug every time like it's now, so it was important to have at least one in the team. We had the same teams going on for two or more matches, with chats after each game (the typical list of "gg"). I remember staying in Rio CTF map for many turns with the same people because we had formed a great team. Now you cannot even choose the map (except PRO battles, obviously). I simply abandoned Tanki because it became annoying, too much powers to buyers, too much pay-to-win, new absurd turrets that could kill you from a long distance without even seeing you, ridicule flying tanks and so on. I came back to check and the regular battles are not funny. In the PRO battles, nobody speaks English, and you don't make progress in them if I'm not wrong, so they do not count as the regular ones. I understand that buyers are the ones that make the game be profitable, but it seems to me the game has lost the majority of players (so fewer new players as well) so there could be a better solution to keep the game more balanced and successful.

I have problems entering the first MM battle since HTML5 happened. It's always a problem playing the first one, the following battles are less problematic, but sometimes after some battles I have to restart too because it stops again. Now it's 2 days I'm waiting forever to play, I was not able to play even a single battle, it waits waits loads loads and then back to garage. I have tried for more than 20 minutes. Never happened with Flash. It seems to me some servers are unreachable. My connection is fine, it happens only with tanki.

Apart from the new UI, the problem with HTML5 version is that simply does not run on some PCs. I play with a laptop (Nvidia card, updated drivers), I never had FPS problems with Flash, always at max, smooth and fluid movements of all tanks and turrets. I tried everything with HTML5 following all the suggestions here on the forum, still cannot reach proper FPS to play without a headache after a few minutes. I play for fun, so I simply quit playing TANKI if the game is no more compatible with that PC.

Make HTML version exactly like Flash (UI), especially the battle. I cannot play HTML is really bad (FPS is around 41), so it's laggy and it gives me headache after few minutes. I never had lags with Flash, FPS always at max. I've seen the Help page but nothing changes, I play with a laptop (with NVIDIA card) and I've problems only in HTML (I disabled all graphic options too, still bad FPS).

This is really bad, except for crazy buyers: EXAMPLE: so if now you want try a new M3 turret you can buy for 240,000 crystals. After the update, as total prices won't change, you will have to spend M3 240,000 + M2 80,000 + M1 25,000 + M1 700 = 345,700 crystals (there will be more levels but the total price would remain 345,700). This means that the average player won't be able to have many turrets in one account, heavy buyers will have more strategic advantage having much more turrets in their garage.
