Hopper festival v2 has just opened! And another big disappoinment Event mode is completely unplayable due to those jumping poops being everywhere + teaming and when you attack one of them, all attack you + stealing all golds. Why on every Randomizer maps Overdrives are ON?! Cause "Dictators would take almost all of them and ruin all fun!!" So lame... And that rocket grenade "Salyut" does literally nothing since in like 99% cases it doesn't kill them due to lifeguard or they are flying near it so fast they easily take it before dying or get hurt. Only more usefull in Gravity or Noice, but mostly for kills. Also as I've mentioned Gold Boxes, are there really increased chanes of Gold Box being dropped?! Just few in 1 battle is a joke seeing how "More Gold Boxes" are turned ON. And the fact most of them are 1k crystals + 2 bonus gold boxes or some lame m-m-m-m monster kill when no one's around. Luck is needed to both get something really good than usually and to catch it since it's dropping faster than usually and hiding in tunnel or under bridge or as mentioned hoppers quickly getting them with jumping or their speed. Guess I'll begin to hate April Fools events and find some other favourite event in Tanki.

I don't really understand the current change with special modes, divided by duration on weekdays and weekends. Just more of them for what, for "more variety" for that event in general and only that?! The fact that only for those weekend Special game modes will apply boosted funds and experience + special mission to get 700 reputation points for 1 epic key prize is a big "nerf" for players, when in the previous event we had whole time boosted funds and experience for whole duration of St. Valentines 2025 in special modes. All time boosted xp and funds on special modes for whole duration of event, now just for weekend modes. Same with special missions. Why not to keep those boosted funds and xp for those modes? Or at least make more special missions with getting 700 reputation points for each special mode, not just those for weekends? At least some more small motivation to encourage players to play those modes instead promoting how it's "fun" or "more variety". Many will ignore those modes at all seeing no bigger advantages of playing it. Hope that will change!

Na pewno ktoś pamięta o tym polskim kąciku na angielskim forum, lecz dużo mniej osób do niego zagląda. Na pewno ja, polskizolnierz i chyba Who_Is_Next oraz Dumbledore6969 pamiętają. Co do reszty grających z Polski ciężko stwierdzić. Wielu z nich albo nie wie o tym w ogóle albo mają to gdzieś i nie są wielce zainteresowani tym tematem. Niestety widać wyraźnie jak polska społeczność w grze się kolosalnie skurczyła aż doszło do feralnego zamknięcia polskiego forum i wikipedii tankowej oraz ograniczeniu zakresu języka polskiego w tej grze (jedynie polska wersja językowa dalej jest). Ale nic dziwnego po akcjach ich twórców. Nie dość, że złodziejstwo/oszustwo/scam w postaci zlikwidowania 10 dronów z gry i przywrócenia części z nich jak urządzenia, to jeszcze na każdym kroku wielce kozaccy gracze na tych ich paladynkach, skoczkach, krzyżowcach z przeróżnymi urządzeniami dostępnymi jedynie ze skrzynek dodawanych co prawie każdy update byle kasiorka wpadała, a nie czy graczom się podoba. Grywalność zanika coraz bardziej, a to że się otworzyli na Nintedo co niby zmieni? Otworzyli się na telefonach, a teraz jakby porzucili kompletnie wersję mobilną. I jak tu nie sądzić, że z Nintendo nie będzie podobnie? Nawet to że oni planują wydać Tanki Classic niewiele zmieni, bo kto niby z Polski i nie tylko wróci do nich, jak wielu z nich już dawno odeszło z gry na zawsze, znalazło sobie partnerkę/partnera, znaleźli solidną prawdziwą pracę, ożenili się, obrazili się na tanki na zawsze, niektórzy może mają dzieci i mają co robić, a nie pykać w Tanki + jeszcze te ich płatne subskrybcje na czat i robienie bitew czy overdrive'y zależne od skina xD. Samo to że te klasyczne czołgi mają być reklamowane przez YT-Berów a nie samych deweloperów guzik da, bo Tanki na YT straciły na popularności i ilu wielkich nagrywających to na tej platformie pożegnało się z grą, a patrząc jakie dziwactwa mają być w Classicach to tylko ich to zniechęci, a wątpię by chcieli wydawać kasę na wczesny dostęp i ankiety gdzie mogą głosować. Ogólnie to za wielu do nich nie przyjdzie, a samo to że dla nich "najbardziej lojalnymi graczami" nie są ci co od kilku-kilkunastu lat grają/grali w tą grę, tylko ci co sypną kaską na te oferty do wczesnego dostępu pokazuje jak oni szanują weteranów tej gry (nie licząc tych co dalej im sypią kaską). Szacunek wręcz zerowy, no chyba że dasz im pieniędzy to będziesz dla nich super duszyczką... Przykro się na to patrzy, ale co zrobić? Pozostaje jedynie z pozostających jeszcze na YT filmików o tankach powspominać dawne lata czy na internetowych archiwum zobaczyć jak to kiedyś wyglądało czy prywatnych screenów/filmików. Na szczęście pozostaną z nami wspomnienia dawnych i złotych, lecz starych lat, których nikt nam nie odbierze. I to na zawsze

Another luck-based event, in which to complete it we have to spend a lot of time and money, as stated above. Pure gambling, use energy to play that roulette and hope to NOT get "Skip a turn". In mini-games we could have at least guaranteed a move or more(whether silver contract or golden one), here it's a big risk. I won't even mention how short it lasts. Just 2 weeks is way too short. Why not to make it like 3-4 weeks? Even for f2p it's not really worth buying that silver contracts, but good they got a lot cheaper than usual. Spending many crystals on them for 1 word, which might be from 6-8 words and to get just... 15 common keys. From daily supermissions and weekly missions we might get 4 + 9 = 13, but also 8 common keys from 1 set of special missions from St. Valentine's Day 2025, so from them it's way more common keys to get and we don't have to spend that much time grinding 3000 reputation points to get some skip a turn or choosing wrong letter. Well yeah, there is a chance to get 250k crystals, but it's quite rare to get it. I assume chances are as low as getting crystals from exotic or legendary category (might be wrong a bit). Getting 13 energies from all those missions for it to just complete 1 word to get 15 common keys, but in worst case you may get NOTHING in return!! And what the heck is that skin?! Vulcan Legacy? Looks like how it would like if it was introduced to game in 2009/2010. That weapon surely isn't the "OG" turret, Legacy skins reminds of those really old times of Tanki and how first weapons in game which used to be there looked like, but now it is ruined to milk money out of people since Tesla Legacy got introduced into game. What's going to be next? Gauss Legacy? Maybe Scorpion Legacy? Maybe Legacy skins for hovering hulls?! Next thing, why event website can't be opened from the announcement website?! I click that "Log in" button and nothing happens!! Only way to get there is via lobby in the right-down corner of it. Luckily it's working, because otherwise probably no one could be able to even participate there and/or try own luck. Advantages: Cheaper price of silver contracts Tanki Alphabet special missions - At least free energies for this event to try own luck. Disadvantages: Not well organised event - Yeah, it's that mentioned no possibility to open event website via announcement with details. Also the time how long it lasts. IMO too short. Roulette - Risk of getting a "skip a turn" after grinding those 3000 reputation points, which means wasted time and money (not always). As I wrote, at least in mini-games we could have a guaranteed move or moves. Prizes - Good at least small amount for free (not always), but to get all of them - 90 common keys, 18 rare keys, 30 epic keys, we have to grind so much that it might be not worth it. I agree that 250k crystals might be pretty big amount of crystals, but depends for who + it's really rare.

Good luck to participants

Pretty interesting to see rare keys in supermissions. Small bonus, a good change. Maybe it's not a lot and same amount to get from encore weekly missions, but still better than nothing. Maybe one day we'll get more rare keys in there or few common keys in supermissions. Who knows? Hope for more buffs to supermissions. Also good that mission with getting 500 reputation points in X mode got divided into 3 sets of missions (3 of them has such missions). Finally I don't have to play so many battles (at least 6-7) to complete just 1 set with missions. I really like it and hope it'll stay like that in game for longer time.

Good luck to participants!

I have to say I’m really disappointed at that mini-game. Just as many „updates” in this game. Advantages: - New, pretty good prizes there (depends) – Yeah, if that’s an advantage it depends what we know about them and if we like them or not. I mean those new augments and skins. For sure it’s a great way to get them without need to pay real money, but that means we’ll have to play a lot more to get it (I’ll mention it later). Disadvantages: - Costs of contracts and amount of moves we get for them – Huge disadvantage of this mini-game! Firstly, Golden Contracts. In the past for 990 Tankoins (We haven’t rubies in game yet) in CyberTank 2024 mini-game we could get 100 Energy to make 10 moves. Currently for the same amount of Rubies (Which replaced what we used to buy for Tankoins, except Tankoins paint) we get only 50 Gingerbreads (which has the same function as Energy in mentioned CyberTank mini-game) to make 5 moves. Same cost and less moves!! Secondly, Silver Contracts. In the past CyberTank 2024 mini-game for that type of Contract (Not special offer of it) we had to pay 30k crystals (29 900 to be exact) for 10 Energies = 1 move, now for the same amount of moves we have to pay 50k crystals (49 900). Same amount of moves but the cost is higher! Thirdly, Bronze Contracts. Not sure if I like that it’s only available from 1st check to the end of the event for whole time for free. It does really show that if we are willing to pay less to get those Gingerbreads, we’ll have to play more to get them. A lot more. Just 2 Gingerbreads, which is 20% of 1 move, so we need like 5 Bronze Contracts to get 1 move. For me they are pretty useless since I have more than 1 milion crystals, so I can get Silver Contracts. I don’t know, maybe there are for few poor players that can’t afford getting Silver Contracts to somehow try get something in entire game... let’s move into next point. - Moves – Only +1 or -1 (50% of moving one field back that when entering them) That means we can’t espace any traps and we can be moved back many times. For example in CyberTank 2024 we could make 1 move or 2 moves, but there could be chanes to be moved back 1 field (Same in „Trick or Treat” Minigame 2024). And that’s what I liked. We could escape some potential traps and move more forward than currently. A risk depending on luck. - Prizes for Checkpoints 1 and 2 and costs of getting there - But first, the „path” of mini-game. Assuming none of traps work, from Checkpoint 1 to Checkpoint 2 we need 18 moves and for the rest of path between checkpoints, we need 17 moves, so in total as you can see in event website, we have to make 103 moves (103 – 18 – 17*5). But it’s highly unlikely that happens, so we’ll need a lot more than that. And because silver contracts require 50k crystals (rounded) to make 1 move, from CP1 to CP2 we need at least 900k crystals (18 * 50000), while for rest of path between islands at least 850k crystals (17 * 50000). So, for spending +- MILLION crystals we get a: Some special paint, possibility to use bronze contracts, 10 nuclear energy supplies, +1 protection module slot and 15 common keys. As I’ve mentioned that +1 protection module, once again we see such news regarding that slot: so that’s another great reason to discourage players from taking part in that mini-game. Those 15 common keys won’t even return 1/4 of the crystals we spent to acquire it. Totally not worth it. Maybe in the next Checkpoints prizes are better (depends because not everybody might like those skins + some of augments are not that good, which says opinions above), but the cost of reaching CP2 might discourage them to go further). As @TheCongoSpider mentioned, many have spent their crystals on 50% sales and you think they still have milions of crystals to go for all prizes there?! You think everyone got so quickly maxed whole garage and don’t have anything to spend those crystals?! Now some general talk: What the heck is happening with this game?! Many times getting constant nerf of prizes when having to put a lot more effort to complete them, not just for F2P players but also for buyers (Gold Contract containing 5 moves in current mini-game instead of 10 in many past mini-games, e.g CyberTank 2024, not everybody who won Rubies from Rubyfund spend them on Gold Contracts), Epic Keys prize for super mission nerfed from 15 to 3 and Advent Calendar super prize from 5 to 3, Silver Contracts costing more, but containing same amount of moves, Gold Contracts having less moves when the cost is the same. If you don’t want to increase prizes for specific cost, at least don’t decrease them when having the same cost. I won’t even mention the unfamous Inactive accounts deletion (1 year inactivity for non-buyers and 3 for who bought at least once for real money) which made many people abandon this game FOREVER!! No, they won’t begin again from zero after such time, after spending lot of money in this game, after spending hundreds or even thousands hours here!! And I’m not suprised many think tanki classic won’t succeed. People just won’t trust it + many have already quit game forever and spend time having fun with friends irl., find husband/wife or simply begin adult life or find something better to do with their lives + no updates. It looks like you try to get rid of as much old tanki „veterans” as possible, especially F2P ones. I have a feeling not just F2P ones. Don’t you think it’s time to end such madness?! Are there even so many new players coming to this game?! What I’ve heard from Taspens Interview with Opex Rah Tanki may be ready for advertising, hope it’s not a lie... Cause this is really going into really bad direction!

And Congratulations to The Best Helpers of 2024

Congratulations to The Best Helpers of December 2024

Impressive

Merry Christmas I Wish you lot of money, happiness, luck and may all your dreams (those not breaking any rules ofc) come true!!

I've tried that myself and I have to admit, something got changed. In the past it was like that. Keyboard only and was working fine for me. I should've tested it before answering you. My bad. I'm really sorry about that.

You open settings in game Lobby (that what appears to you when you open game) ---> Go to "CONTROL" section ---> In "Input device" you change it to "Keyboard". That should work.

Thanks for this Token of Apology. It's a really good one, especially that there will be twice 50% discounts and contain 150 Rubies. Have fun during this Festive Season event!

That's way better Festive Season (Christmas & New Year) than last year's one. Advantages: More festive decorations (Gold Box festive skins, which makes them look like a gift) Man it reminds me of those gifts which were in game before removing Flash from the game. Badge, Like, Golden Wrench, Blue Sphere and holiday ones. I'd really like to see them in this game. Discounts - I think no need to say more about it ? More Gold Boxes in all special modes - really good addiotion for all Gold Hunters and other players who can earn extra crystals from battles (Although it's not a lot from them). Festive maps in PRO Battles - I really like the idea of bringing back old festive maps for PRO battles,(Old New Year 2015, Snowman, New Year) it's a really good option for those who miss old vibe of Christmas in Tanki. I hope more often such option will be in game when for example Halloween or such Festive Seasons. It's a win-win for those who prefer old maps and those who enjoy current, new maps. Disadvantages: Repetitiveness - Missions repeat whole time. Not even set of them is changing. Comparing to the last year festive festival, we needed only 500 reputations points than 600, but also have to finish 7 battles (4 times) to be able to complete whole set of missions (in past in 2 set only finish 5 battles and appearing only 2 times), super missions had 15 stars back then, now just 3 epic keys + use overdrive 12 times when in last festive season 10 times and also + 1 more mission to each set now. Also fact that there were 3 special missions (in general) for everyone, when now only 1 for those who don't have Premium and Battle Pass bought. Many other missions also repeat ( get into TOP-3 once, be in winning team 3 times each set except 1st one) What about adding mission to catch Gold Boxes, for example "Catch 10 Gold Boxes in matchmaking battles." ? Catching Gold Boxes is pretty easy, but of course depends in situation in battlefield and equipement you have equipped, so such missions shouldn't be a really big problem to complete. Maybe a mission "Use grenade 10 times" or 20 times could be a good idea? Yeah, they aren't as cheap as supplies, but still the requirement to complete them shouldn't be a really huge problem. You can buy grenades in showcase with 90% discount + opening containers give many 1000 crystals (0,8 grenade ) so it shouldn't be a really challenging thing. Ofc there is new type of mission to kill 1 player with grenade but just 1? Why not something new? Prizes from missions - Yeah, many times prizes decreased (Supermissions) and we need to play more to complete whole set. It used to be a lot more Epic Containers back then (Now we have epic keys) - 15. Decreased to 3 (Ice Age 2023), Increased to 5 epic keys (Halloween 2024 and Tankers Day 2024) and again to 3 epic keys (Winter Festival 2024 and now Festive Season). Not to mention fact that supermission for Advent Calendar (F2P one) also had 5 epic containers/keys (Autumn Festival 2023, Tankers Day 2024) and also decreased to 3 (Day of The Dead 2024, Winter Festival 2024). What's next?!... or maybe not to "give ideas" about it. Just play more for less prizes... Snowman special mode - again that? Now it's a tradition or something?! Meh, I'm not a big fan of that. In a random moment getting that Pulsar status effect with many useless status effects (EMP, Armor Piercing, Jammer) and get knocked down easily. By now that's all from me. Maybe later I'll write something more.

Congratulations to the winners!

That skin looks really impressive. I like it!! Hope one day I'll be lucky enough to get it from Epic container.

1. Remove all of the hovering hulls (Of course without forgetting about milions of crystals as a compensation for them). No balance changes would fix how broken they are with that air drifting power... 2. Remove all of those old-drone-based augments (Lifeguard, Blaster, Miner, Driver). Literally removing them from game and bringing them back as augments was one of the worst updates ever happened in this game. Pure cash heist!! With those hovering hulls they make unbelivably OP combo that destroys many battles by one-sided win. 3. Remove "Dead bodies" heavyweight. Too heavy to be pushed and blocking the way (not only in road meaning, but also for many weapons, e. g. smoky shots often blocked, shafts in arcade mode, meanwhile firebird, freeze or splash damage weapons/augments can easily deal damage through them. 4. Decrease time limit of equipment changes in battles. Only 1 thing changed and can't do anymore changes. Like 4-5 minutes cooldown would be fine...

Sadly, this is what has been done to this game. In many battles playing the objective (Trying to capture flags in CTF or ASL, or capturing points in CP or SGE) makes no sense when in enemy team there are groups of those "stronk" players with their Paladins, Crusaiders, Hoppers or other hulls with Lifeguard or Blaster or Miner and broken augments to their turrets and destroying your whole team every 4-10 seconds after you respawn. I think only point to try to those objectives is for points or stars (challenges if not completed yet and you care about challenge accepted(optional)) and crystalls or for daily mission and weekly one. It's really discouraging to see you being the only one or one of the few that tries and you also stop to care (ofc not always, but such situation happens). No wonder lot of players treat all battles as some kind of TDM. Not sure if raising points for doing the main point of mode would work, players will still don't care and just destroying every enemy after respawning in their base... So I understand your point!
