So around Christmas is there going to be another sale? But only 30%? Just wondered cause the sale schedule was postponed. Thanks... Ohya will there be boosted funds this weekend? Didn't read anything about boosted funds, so I guess not.

Well if you have an almost maxed out trickster drone with mammoth changes it a bit. The other day I got like 6-7 tanks...lol its one of the most fun combos in this game.... mammoth OD with trickster... feel like a Balrog.... For Rapid fire to work good you really need max equipment to get that damage output; they recently nerfed the reload times which sucks. I use Scorpion Swarm with mamoth tricker in Siege it was ok; but again they nerfed reload times.

Ya, will there be 1 more try after server restart afew hours away from now? Or thats it... Dec 8th... I'm in pacific time zone... kind of confused right now...

Noticed this morning the Tanki online servers are up but only like 260 players on. Then I tried to play but must enter INVITE password. Well that is a good sign; I guess 2-3 days might be back up. Lets hope they get all the bugs out..etc...

jdo: What do you mean sniper reload? Ya, I hate they messed up SHAFT Rapid fire. I like the playability of this game and has much potential. Of course we hope they finally make the game stable and reliable; I'll give them a chance. But the game honestly is getting repeatitive and boring sometimes. I wish they had CLAN automated matches (for like siege, ctf, etc) and then records updates on a website. Subspace Trenchwars zone (2d MMO) had this automated league TWD league and made the game more fun; than just public ctf games. Also they had ELIM; get 10 lives or so and out; last player wins. I also wish they had a STRAFE key bind; so I don't have to use mouse for hover hulls to strafe left/right. I sure hope by next weekend they have that black friday sale and get the game going.... wow getting close to xmas.

I see 2 test servers, last week the 1st one was open... now seems exclusive maybe for those esport matches and then the 2nd test server is for the rest of us.

I was going to put it off to extend the premium in the long run; but I couldn't wait and decided to claim the token/apology....lol....

That is good they have this vlog; but still vague on what sort of accident in detail. Like perhaps a SSD wore out; but I'm would think they make backups. Hazel says they will try to restore your private data. We will have to go thru our turret/hulls see if we have all our augments..etc...

I hate that too during battle if you change the turret you can't change the augment later on. But you have TO THINK AHEAD when you make the turret change which augment to use. For example if you were to switch to Gauss, the enemy have alot of AP immunity, then go with Gauss EMP. Then when you switch turret/aug you make the wisest choice. I don't think they will change this.

It is a bit vague on what happened, I wonder what type of accident. So we can learn what happened to the game server. Well good luck in fixing everything and I appreciated some sort of feedback on what is going on. So maybe on Monday to Wednesday the game might be working, I sure hope we still have that BLack Friday sale. OK thank you....

I was thinking about a month ago or so. Wouldn't be nice if there was an automated match statusprotection chooser? Its sort of a pain each match making the right choice of hull immunity, and the protection modules; the choices right there will determine the outcome of the match or make it painful. I guess you could press tab and have another computer with computational vision....then compare and give you the best results for the match.

What is going on with the server? I thought everything is fixed and seem to run quite stable last few days. Please let us know....ok thanks

Question The Rewards; could give us some info on these augments? Like Thunder Nanotech shell (is that like shaft heal?). Scorpion Tornado sounds like striker cyclone... Wonder how many tankoins for the ticket to play this.... Thanks for making tanki interesting...later

I hope they bufff shaft rapid reload time... and it would be good to see shaft ap crit hits too.... so many other AP turrets have this... even Gauss AP..with arcade shots.

1 way to reduce floating hover hulls.... the mouse control is terrible.... have a STRAFE key... hold down then you can strafe left/right... then no need for stupid mouse. I can only play with keyboard only... mouse just messes me up.... was thinking of getting some MMO mouse, but idk... just I hate with mouse control how when you rotate the speed of rotation jumps..like feels awkward unlike keyboard. It wouldn't be hard to add this in keybinds SETTINGS/OPTIONS/CONTROLS.... wish they do this..ugh

Ya ARES is about the BFG Balls not shields (that is titan). But I had an idea like a year ago, how about buff Hunter OD (Have a mini shield, smaller than Titan).

I don't think this is a good for ARES; but maybe have OD OPTIONS for TITAN (NON-MOBILE and MOBILE Dome Shield). As for the ARES ball it would be good if they could shrink the ARES Ball zap range.... I think it is too OP and needs to be nerfed a little.

Ya, that is a good idea, basically rail with splash damage. I think rail needs some sort of buff, they aren't doing as well, see less of them.

Ya for the last few hours I get ERROR SERVER LOST CONNECTION... I tried running in google chrom, edge, and tanki client... all the same error... After server restart it was working fine for a few hours.... took a break and then tried to play again...nope down again like other day. I saw on youtube daringdeer playing though 20mins go, not sure how they were able?

lol ya no kidding long delay for warmup, by the time it is ready to shoot the target is dead fast. Also another thing during battle team mates nudge your tank while you are trying to aim. Atleast there is scout; but the emp rail seems inferior to gauss emp. Rail fire was good, high critical chance, but then they lowered the crit chance %. But as I said last time wish they do something to improve rail to balance the game vs other turrets. Like how they improved thunder this year, but even some of those crystal augs like sledgehammer are not very good.

I just tried out that rail emp from the challenges and it is ok..average... But they sure nerfed rail so much, such slow reload and the damage is not too much most of the time. The critical chance seems rare and the emp doesn't happen often; no wonder most just goto gauss emp. See so much less rail users these day, around 2017 was so many compared to now. Wish they do something to improve rail; like how they improved thunder.

I feel dumb but I just realized that RAIL/STRIKER protection don't work vs juggernaut; only armadillo does. I wish they clearly put it in the top text in the wiki; I found that in the interesting facts section. Was there ever talk in the past about rail/striker protection enabled vs juggernaut? I assumed since the terminator turret shoots rail/striker it would work. I feel so stupid... I don't play juggernaut often but good others know this.

Yesterday in siege I was attacked by VATER (some isida vampire hornet) and afew other isidas... I put the 50% Isida protection along with armadillo 44% and it was comical...at close range... I had next to no energy...and had scorpion....slow reload... the isida vater ran out of energy and couldn't kill me... eventually shot him...but got him and ran... but then like 3-4 isida's came for me... killed all of them but then some stray fire and 1 isida weakened me.. goes to show you these protections helped. Another thing is to freeze these vampire isidas, if you don't have isida protection handy. You are pretty acurate above regarding protections; but it is also depends what mode MM you player and style you play... but in siege seems like Scorp, Thunder, Gauss, Rico (if helios to survive)... last year vulcan was popular but dropped off.... starting to see less scorpions, guess the nerf affected them.

OK, so self damage critical hits are impossible now. When was this done? Thanks....

I am not sure if this question has been asked before, "Does armadillo reduce SELF-DAMAGE?". For example if I have magnum, and I have magnum protection and armadillo protection. If my magnum did a nearby critical hit, would the armadillo reduce damage as well? I looked in the wiki regarding armadillo and nothing is said about this. Thanks.
