Key word - "yet" Honestly, are you suprised? Those events in Tanki are big copy and paste from last years with some minor changes (yeah, we should be soooo grateful there are at least some changes, right?). And we can clearly see new "traditions" in Tanki repeated events. Fool Days (aka hopper Festival) - "Randomizer" special mode with overdrive ON Cosmonautics Day - "Ufo", "Ace combat", "Interceptors" special modes with hop***s. Hang on, that's literally hopper festival. Yeah, so the Fool Days event is "hopper Festival 1.0" and that Cosmonautics Day are "hopper Festival 2.0". Tanki Birthday - "Hazelball" special mode UFO Day - "Meteor Shower" and "Ufo" special modes Summer Festival - "La Tomatine" special mode and those tomatoes flying everywhere Halloween - "Zombie" special mode with B0-NKs and Vikings against Juggernaut Festive Season - "Snowman's Gold" in 2025 or "Snowman" in 2024 or "Snowballs" in 2023 - another tradition in Christmas, where snowballs fly everywhere. That's just basically copy of the La tomatine special mode And ofc 5k reputation points contracts for mini-games. Many complained about some of those and still wasn't done anything about it. Some complaints are valid, some not. And barely any effort at creating such events, if we can even call it "effort". Many times it was mentioned and nothing done with it, even after giving sum ideas. Barely anything interesting. I'm not suprised people give up with that since devs don't do anything about many things, barely anything or too little. Compare activity in last 3 years for each year. Some topics on Forum have 4,3 or 2, 1 or even no replies to it, so... yeah.

It's because of the change in Patch Update #826, which made "Hide your profile" option enabled by default for all players. Check quote below and topic regarding mentioned Patch Update. Here's the link: https://en.tankiforum.com/topic/399531-patch update-826-released-3rd-april-2026/ If you want to make your profile visible for everyone, then: 1. Open game 2. Log into your account if haven't done yet 3. Open settings 4. Go to "Security" section 5. Disable the "Hide you profile" option. Screenshot from settings:

Exactly, that ratings website deserves a huge visual update or shutting it down. It's amusing how it is ignored and being outdated when we compare it to the forum website or wiki page and other Tanki Online-related websites. I've heard it will be moved as a feature in-game or something... hold on, need to check it. Yeah... it's in Development plans under Work In Progress / Planned https://en.tankiwiki.com/Development_Plans . Yeah, rework players profiles & achievement rewards in-game. And that's a good question how long it will take. Yeah. I also can't understand it, no nerfs of Excelsiors (if that gonna happen in next 2-3 years), Excaliburs, Tornado, Stellerator and any balance changes at all. But ofc players gonna complain how they ruined they favourite turret/hull, how it's unplayable, bad, poop etc. if that happen. Maybe that's why. Still that's not an excuse to not do them.

Smoky + Twins ahh combination Even the icons of augments are big copy and paste from Smoky and I don't mean those status effect ones, Adrenalines, Excelsiors and Phoenixes, cause they are the same for turrets and hulls . Won't be suprised they work the same as Smoky ones. The originality of this game is fading more and more.

Feel free to check my profile, I have it, but don’t use it... because I CAN. That’s how choice works. I'm not some hypocrite who complains about hop***s and plays them at the same time. Haven’t touched those floating for like... I don’t know, + - 3 or 4 years. And I’m proud of it. And nah bro, way more options exists. For example 3. Keep trying to catch April Fools Gold Boxes with something else than that hull. 4. Not play that mode at all and save time 5. Leave game. I Have chosen the 3rd option and caught some April Fools Gold Boxes. Feel free to check "Gold Boxes!" topic in this forum and Discord server of TO in #tanki-images channel. Not much, but once again, I’m pretty busy in my real life and have better things to do and spend time on. As I said, it's better they don't spam with it, but it still didn't change the fact that hop***s were taking over 90% April Fools Gold Boxes because of a simple fact that they were "saving" OverDrives (not using for some time) until AF Gold Box dropped. And that didn't change much. Still that's better, but not enough. I know, I ask for too much, no need to tell me that. "I like you cut G"

Congratulations to the Best Helpers of March 2026

As expected, another Fool Day event and another Hopper Festival. Guess imma create a petition to rename that event from "Fool Days" to "Hopper Festival", unless someone else will be faster or did it already, which I doubt. I'm pretty busy in my real life and may not have time to do it. Why exactly this event must be with those jumping thingies? Why exactly the only event where April Fools Gold Boxes drop, which are way more valuable than regular Gold Boxes (that’s actually debatable because of the prizes it offers [Monster kill and overdrive fully recharged], which are randomly selected) when we can get something more than just 1000 crystals?! What's so unattractive about rest of the events that there can't be hopper domination or turned ON overdrive kept? Just like it was year ago and 2 years ago (who am I kidding, many more times), hoppers taking almost every April Fools Gold Box and teaming (if 1 tanker attack them, all attack you). Literally few or at least that one hopper jumping for AF Gold Box in over 90% cases. Luckily I was able to catch few Gold Boxes without it, even 50k crystals one with small help of hopper boi (if you read this, hope you caught at least one 50k crystal Gold Box as compensation for such bad luck). I’ve posted that in Gold Box topic in this forum and Discord servers. If you really thought that turning off Nuclear Energies and giving everyone Salyut grenade would solve the issue, then you were WRONG. Even the Overdrives nerf didn’t do anything about. Nuclear energies being turned OFF didn't solve any problem with those jumping poops. Yeah, it's better that they don't spam with it, BUT you've completely forgot that Overdrives are ON (again) and they could just drive with their OD's ready and use it until that Fools Day Gold Box drop. So it did almost nothing. Not much. Everywhere hoppers waiting for that special Gold Box Salyut grenades didn't change situation at all. As I said year ago when there were introduced to special mode, they don't help at all because those hop***s (sorry, but that word itself make me sick) take that GB faster then that grenade explodes + fact that many of them had Lifeguards or Stun immunity, which don’t stop them from taking those Golds at all. They were more useful to kill enemies rather than stop those jumping you know what. That was the actual point of that grenade? I think not. Is it really that hard to just turn off Overdrives for that "Randomizer" special mode? Or at least make Fool Days longer and give both "Randomizer" and "Legendary Randomizer" where overdrive were turned ON in 1st one and turned OFF in 2nd one just like it was in 2023?! Are you really that afraid of comments how Dictators dominate each Gold Box hunt and others barely have any chances? And stop with these “improvements,” like the ones mentioned above or for example turning off Augments, Drones, Modules, Grenades instead of turning those overdrives off in next years, cause that won’t solve anything. You didn’t learn anything from mistakes in previous years and even not much from Reviced’s opinion with as many as 59 reactions under Fool Days 2025 topic. Also few YT-Bers even recorded videos about the situation, hope you also watch it if you didn’t. I have a really good idea of the special mode that might actually solve those problems: just make a special mode where everyone has equipped the same hull, for example Hornet or Viking. By that there won’t be any issues regarding hop***s, no issues when it comes to Dictators. Pure fight for Gold Boxes that are more equal and require to use some brain to try catch them (I mean think of smart way to get it before someone else get it). By that I’m sure more people will enjoy Fool Days events in Tanki than in last 3-4 years. Or even make Hop**r and Railgun special mode, where everyone has it and also have more equal changes. Am I asking for too much? If that’s too problematic, just rename this event „Hopper Festival” and let us openely know what you think of April Foo... I mean Hop***r festival and how much it should stay as it is. Seems a certain era in this game has definitely come to an end. R.I.P Fool Day [*]

Don't get so excited. I won't be suprised that "nerf" of those hulls ain't do anything and still 80% of battles will be with almost everyone with those hover hulls + dozens of comments after that nerf saying how they "ruined" it, how "they're unplayable" "imma stop spending on game" etc.

I'm pretty sure discount on weapons will be after this (Global Warming) event ends and another one begins. So most likely next weekend. BUT remember: It's only on the first weekend of new event. I don't think it will change. But who knows? Stay up to date with the lastest announcements to not miss it!

That sounds more like a question to the developers. I don't think any player can tell you when the bot Juggernaut and bots will be fixed. I guess the only way to find out is to ask a question under QtD topic and wait for it to be answered in V-LOG or Youtube Shorts in EN Youtube Channel. And also wait for it to be fixed. Plus elaborate what do you mean by "fixing". For example "Reprogram the bots so that when they are Juggernauts, they will adopt a defensive play style and when they have less that 10 or 20% of HP and have their Overdrive ready to active, they will use it". I'm pretty sure you would've mention fact that they begin to attack enemy base without any retreat and die there quickly. Or for example "If they have 50% or less of HP, they will play a defensive style, and when above - offensive one". I guess it might help developers with "fixing" bots when they become a Juggernaut a bit. Here's the link for the topic, where you can ask such questions:

Regarding the mentioned above repetetiveness and making creative events, I'd like to point out one certain thing - contests. Shortage of contests. I don't mean here those events like mini-games, Sakura Blossoms, Team Contracts, funds etc. Real contests, where creativity and imagination counts or to do a small task (not paid one) to participate in a draw or to get a small prize. And what's imporant, for fun. How many contests there were since 2023 excluding the V-LOG ones? I've counted a few of them only, for example Masters of Parkour 2023 and Parkour Survival in 2025. What happened with all the Mine Art contests, what happened with all the card contests, tank painting and Gold Boxes selfies?! I'm negatively suprised that no one mentions this. Like, no one really want that back?! Recently on Jumper's Discord server there was a small contest for the Valentines called "Valentine mission", where to get a 1 day of Premium we had to get exactly 14 kills with Isida and have Valentine-themed paint equipped (or to do 14 kills and change into Isida and sum valentine-themed paint and pray to not get caught hahah) and take screenshot of it and post it into specific channel. He claim that he sent "a total of 90 premium days". Huge W and respect for him for deciding to organize such "mission" and to sacrifise all of his YT TO points to send prizes for participants, moreover, he even had to "borrow" some points from Taspens to give the prize for several participants. Of course there were complaints how it's so easy and such mission should be harder. So what? Many players decided to participate, even though for many, 90 participants might be seen as not much, but imagine if game itself organize it. I'd guarantee if Tanki itself hold a contest similar to that (small prize for everyone who take part in it or a task to complete to participate in a draw with bigger prizes) hundreds or even thousands of players would take part in them and enjoy participating and playing TO a bit more. And that’s my point! Well, if I have any ideas of contests to hold, yes, have sum ideas: 1. Team mine art contest In a pair or group of max 3 players create mine artwork related to the event which is currently taken place (If in Valentine then something Valentine-themed, if it takes place in Christmas then something Christmas-related etc.) when having equipped event-themed paint (all participants have to have such paint equipped). TOP 5 best artworks get grand prizes, and rest of groups participate in draw, which picks like 10 winning groups. Example of prizes for each player in group: 1st place get like 100.000 crystals, 1200 Rubies and 100 Epic Keys, 2nd receive 80.000 crystals, 1000 Rubies and 80 Epic Keys, 3rd place get 60.000 crystals, 800 Rubies and 60 Epic Keys, 4th place - 40.000 crystals, 600 Rubies and 40 Epic Keys, 5th place - 30.000 crystals, 500 Rubies and 30 Epic Keys, Prize from draw: 15.000 crystals and 200 Rubies + 15 Epic Keys Of course prizes are debatable thing, but that above is just an example. It may be different. But something like that might be really interesting. Alternatively, there can be also an art contest for those who prefer to do it alone, without anybody's help with similar prizes. 2. "Gold Box Catch Of The *event name*" In this contest to participate you need to record a video of you catching a Gold Box in a creative way and post it in a form which requires you to put your in-game name, link to the video uploaded on YT (Unlisted or Public). It can have a paint requirement or not, that is up to organizer. Here maybe like TOP 10 most creative video entries sent get grand prizes (Crystals and Epic Keys) and the rest of entries participate in a draw. Example: 1st place - 30.000 crystals, 30 Epic Keys 2nd place - 28.000 crystals, 28 Epic Keys 3rd place - 26.000 crystals, 26 Epic Keys 4th place - 23.000 crystals, 23 Epic Keys 5th place - 20.000 crystals, 20 Epic Keys 6th-10 place - 10.000 crystals, 10 Epic Keys Prize from draw - 5.000 crystals and 5 Epic Keys It doesn't have to be each new event (Lunar New Year, Valentines, Tanki Birthday, Halloween, Day Of The Dead etc.), it can be only for big events like for example Halloween or Christmas. Something like this as new ideas of contests in the fututre. I’m pretty sure players gonna like it and many would like to participate in them. And please, spare me the comments that "AI work will win and ruin fun", I think there is software that detects the use of AI in work and if really Tanki Online can't afford it, then that's shameful and pure comedy.

I don't really believe that will get a nerf. Unless veeery, veeery long time passes and developers come up with something stronger than them.

Good luck to the participants!

Alright. Time to note down current and outstanding information regarding Tanki Classic from V-LOGs V-LOG Episode 540 - Updates on Classic Test server was launched and Early Access page began to be available. Special offers began to be available once again. Below them there are project development with details. Roadmap is a tool which allows everyone to see with what developers are working on now. V-LOG Episode 542 - Roadmap Update and Premium Completed several more important milestones: 25.12.2025 Closed Testing, Juggernaut, Lobby Interface remake, Battle HUD, 16.01.2026 (That date shown in V-LOG and on that website 2025 year is a small mistake) Protection Modules Everything related to battle fields got fixed. Issues with Vulcan got resolved, brought back the Railgun shot effect, adjusted equipment balance and costs. To make them work correctly, developers need to deploy the update along with the test server wipe. You were warned about the account wipes multiple times in advance! Premium mechanic will be introduced with the updated test server. Without Premium, you won't be able to chat in-game or create battles. Access to that will be granted based on purchased special offers: All players who have purchased Bronze Special Offer "Personalized" will receive access to Classic test server with that update, but without Premium. Players who have purchased 'Silver' Special Offer "Nostalgia" will enter test server with Premium account. "Veteran" paint will be in your Garage there. For those who have purchased 'Gold' Special Offer "Old School" will get Premium, paint, and unlocked Containers on their accounts. All 200 containers can be freely opened on test server. Containers will be refreshed and added back to inventory in a closed state after each account wipe. That's how first wipe will work. Next one will contain few suprises. You can check roadmap any time to check to see what developers work on and what will be next.
