Pay to win in a game means making buyers completely OP compared to F2P. No F2Ps having OP legendary augments all the time compared to buyers having a little bit more OP augments is not "pay to win". Everyone has the same chance of getting specific augments buyers get it sooner because they spend REAL LIFE MONEY to get small advantage that can be destroyed by ACTUALLY SKILLED PLAYER AND ITS BEEN PROVEN MANY TIMES BY ME AND ANOTHER VETERANS OF THE GAME. But they nerf cream of the crop augments after a lot of F2Ps get it! - Imagine 5/10 players using Helios on release in every map. Would you rather have that or have one random big buyer or a lucky guy with Helios? I played ACTUAL Pay to win games and trust me Tanki compared to those games is a damn heaven i mean i played games where LOG. IN. BONUSES. ARE. GATED. BEHING. A. PAY. WALL. A thing that is similar to Tanki's challenge is pay premium currency to get further in >> FREE << tiers of the challenge. This is just some of the examples. Tanki is not p2w you can easily kill buyers with skill you'll just have a harder time.

Well to be fair you would be trying to fix it ASAP if you were them too because thats their income, Brah

Im not gonna pretend hazel is a smart guy but shutting down the whole game for a week just so F2P players can't get premium is just beyond absurd xD

Dokkan Battle gives compensations to their players after a maintenance (3-12 hours depends on what's going on) they give out their premium currency in tanki it would be like 5-10 tankoins with every maintenance then im pretty sure DB Legends do it too and another Gacha games and tanki is following gacha games (because they added gambling everywhere.)

I am a buyer but man... i kinda like the idea... ?

They'll either extend the time of this pass and compensate with a bunch of stars for you to complete it OR just flat out give you the rewards though thats unlikely since it would take more time and just waste resources. Same with Tankoin pass. You'll get your tankoins. If you bought it ofc. Every another event is postponed too. Don't worry you'll get everything you missed.

Now this is what i call professional behaviour. Communicating things like that with the community is very important. Good luck with fixing the problems.

1. 99,9% chance DDoS attackers couldn't care less about tanki and never played tanki and only attacks it because its russian product and in their minds a random russian game is a reason for [Censored because it breaks the game rules] and not put in. 2. Different people do different things some design new skins anothers make celebrations anothers add things. DDoS attack only keeps the programmers extra busy and designers etc. most likely work just like always. 3. The game is somewhat better yeah... but balanced? HAHAHAHAHAHAHA! I am a buyer and i have like 90% Of the stuff you can get and even then it doesn't feel balanced at all so i can't even imagine how "balanced" it feels for your average Bob the Tanker.

If a random child who accessed tanki servers after giving hazel 1$ DDoS hacker deleted the servers there are no bad news. Tanki will just re-roll the servers back to a random date like 2022/11/20 thats it (you'll lose every bit of progress you earned in 21st and 22nd though). Thats how it would work in a normal game. But its tanki so expect for your account to be randomly deleted Or it could mean tanki devs made a new server or something.

Completely agree with Yuvraj007. Gauss after its recent "buff" its completely braindead since now you have no time lock on. If you're being a moving sniper and actually help your teammates (yes im Gauss main and thats what i do in MM after its braindead buff i use Hornet + Gauss and move all over the map) then gauss is cool and you should not switch to thunder but if you camp in the same place being the "smart" one then switch to thunder just so we can have 1 less braindead camper in MM.

I don't think i ever saw Trashladin's OD used to support it only caps all flags in 4 seconds and wins 7-0 or kills 80 people in DM before your OD runs out. Don't disrespect average Joe. Last time i fought paladin it took him like 5 seconds to finally start hitting me (it was a melee... fight...) they can't even turn without their OD or something they're too braindead he only won because he had 50% prot. Oh if Trashladin defenders think it was a noob the same noob capped 7 flags in around 4 minutes. in a battle that was BALANCED before he joined. Reminder that the name of this topic is "Nerf Paladin Overdrive". Just reminding ^^ Ares OD is way more OP than Titan or Mammoth or even compared to another ODs (except paladin ofc). Skillful? lol sometimes i have Ares OD and the match is ending so i just shoot the ball without looking and get 1-3 kills almost every time. Super skillful! Not even talking about SGE where its definition of cancer

They're not giving "Free" stuff their giving things that players lost with some extras for not being able to play the game for a couple of days. Also Profile hiding detected opinion rejected.

If i got a coin every time they invented new reasons for me to randomly get banned and all that i would... be the richest man on earth. They ban you for saying "this map is trash" reason INSULTS AND PROVOCATION (provocation lol) they think their playerbase is 5 year olds who will die after seeing a bad word in chat but at the same time turned this game into one big casino where instead of money you win pixels in a certain formation in your screen.

Step 50. 10islands left to reach 3rd island. I WOULD LIKE TO GET THAT COMPENSATION RIGHT ABOUT NOW

Jammer fire to defend from CRISIS? IN CTF???? my boy playing with braindead crisis users. to be fair EMP gauss without EMP immunity is by far the most annoying thing in this game after the "gauss revival" and you literally can't disagree. Personally i would just go defending/support role. to make me rage quit you would have to summon the demon hazel himself

as a Crisis main i can tell you that Jammer RAILGUN of all things would be the least of my worries when i want to use crisis lmao. If you want to force a buyer change equip/leave only skill will help. When their hyperspeed and another toys don't work they change. then you change to counter them again and if you team is winning by at least 1 point they rage-quit. *note the rage quit strat doesn't work against the Big Bois (people who are actual veterans and played the game for longer than average age of tanki's buyer)

it probably happens to random games from time to time same with websites. im pretty sure amazon.com was DDoS attacked couple years back or maybe it was some another well known website can't remember. Though it happened only once but then its amazon we're talkin about so they probably got the best DDoS protection in the world after that lol

No its default tesla but... ... ???? more LEGACY? (we don't have m0 tesla though default skin looks like M0) and they WILL sell M0-2 skins later but that was NOT hazels idea it came from PLAYERS (even hazel was like bruh you can see it in a random vlog don't know the number) Riddler, why is it nice? Its literally default skin. EDIT: After looking at tesla banner more im pretty sure its literally default tesla but non-HD. Bwahahahahahaha

I thought GT thunder is bad but LC tesla is whole another level. this is a joke that's not even funny... can't blame them there will be more than enough braindead buyers to spend 1000s of $ to get it

I got banned for calling mults "braindead" while maps are filled with angry russians cursing for 15 mins so don't even bother understanding tanki chat moderation

Event mode is HORRIBLE. The second i spawn i have to fight half of tanki's player base while getting every effect possible because ofc there's pulsar tesla who knows where critting every 2 shots. 1/10 event mode playable. SOMEWHAT.

this is the biggest Tanki Player moment in history of November 12th. 1. "I leave the game" 2. *playing couple hours later.*

I love you.

You mean you don't remember the good ol' "ELECTRIK" Kit??!!? Tesla M3 , Titan M2 and Electra paint. You deserve a ban. I was a force of nature after getting ELECTRIK kit sadly it was very popular so everyone would buy ELECTRIK kit when the reach Brigadier

i don't mind free moving 60 xp. nowadays hopper OD is annoying? sure but its now acceptable imo unlike ehem... hopper and plasma torch couple months ago
