Hi 

 

Contrary to many people here i'm not a hater of new physics.  In fact I have been in private testing of it for quite a while now.

 

However there is now something a little concerning that I feel needs to be investigated ASAP. 

 

I myself have had some mild head aches after playing tanki after the recent updates.  Now I don't know in my case if this is the new physics or the new dynamic lightings, but something is definitely not ok here. 

 

I did not bother about it until my little cousin told me he got the same symptoms.  And now several other tankmen are reportin to me the same things, and i'm quite concerned with this.

 

Reminds me of what happened to children in Japan when Pikachu gave a thundershock once. I guess its a bigger concern.

@satyamdf:

 

Or remember the Pokémon Episode: Porygon Warrior? Or something like that. But that episode, when it went Live in Japan Only, gave MANY children Seizure symptoms. They all had to get hospitalized I think. Why? The episode was way too flashy.

 

And in testing, you know Lavender Town in the Pokémon games? Well that music hurts your ears- literally. It is known to give people headaches, affect their vision a little, and basically pierces your ears. It hurts I've heard- ALOT!

 

@Damn Slow: I have not had these symptoms from playing Tanki Online. However, that may be due to the fact that the maximum times I play Tanki is like 2-3 times a day. And each time is only like 20-30 minutes. However, now that you mention it I would be concerned over those that play like 5-6 hours, or 12-13 hours. Yikes!

Yeah that was what I was referring to. Due to flashy graphics, one in 100 or one in 1000 get affected like that. Considering million+ children were watching, it lead to a lot of hospitalizations.

 

Guess tanki is also having excess flashes that may affect some people in minor ways, though the number may be much less. They could give it a check.

 

 

About lavender town, I never heard about that, I ll give it a read though, interesting. :)

 

Your name suits you DidYouKnowThat ;)

Noooo! Do NOT listen to it. I don't remember much of it except that it hurts your ears, but I reviewed it, and ''the truth was that the game contained a high-pitch binaural effect (different frequencies in each ear), which caused children with still developing ears to get migraines after listening to it for a while, causing the games to get recalled in Japan after the initial release.''

 

The most creepy part about the Lavender Town music was that, someone used special computer software to analyze the frequencies of the music, right? Apparently it produced a Ghost like image, and it also produced an image of Unknown. You know, the Pokémon ''Uknown.'' The weird part was that the pokemon ''Unknown'' was not introduced to the game until Generation 2, Gold and Silver games. They did not display in the game Lavender Town at all. And the Uknowns spelled ''Leave now.''

 

The part of the story where they said it caused people to kill themselves , usually by hanging, is untrue however.

 

But then again Lavender Town is a town known for Ghost Sightings + Grave-sites. So . . . weird huh?

 

Anyways, back on topic: Physics UPDATE. Lol!

6 months of hard FAILS!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!

[jordan61 120]

actually I like the new physics. Mammoth and titan are supposes to remain near flags and defend. Dont worry if someone takes flag and you kill him and return it you get nearly 30 points.Medium hulls are supposed to be an all rounder ,defend a little,attack or capture.Light hulls are there to capture

[Buggati_The_Best 1,233]

When do u think a ****CHRISTMAS**** sale will be? Maybe during Christmas. Prob 50% on hulls

easy dude and i dont think will be 2 sales on New Year and Christmas :P

[Buggati_The_Best 1,233]

@Bayside_Wisconsin/ @themaster765:

 

This was the closing message Semyon had at the 25% Discount for Crystals topic.

 

''Thanks for taking part in the sale. Hope you guys bought some crystals, you'll need it soon! ''

 

This caught my attention! You see, I'm not sure if he's talking about:

 

Micro-upgrades

 

or

 

Sale!         

maybe both :lol:

I dont get why people think shaft is nerfed

I had a 7.00 DL with m0 yesterday and was first.

they dont like that the reload is very slow,but the charge is superfast

they feel that the gun is unbalanced

but i find it great :lol:

@Jordan: If that's true, then it should get some more Hp.

@Jordan: If that's true, then it should get some more Hp.

Well then, if a mammy with such a large amount of hp is camping on their flag, a light hull will find it impossible to destroy the mammy whilst trying to dodge several other enemy players meaning that capping a flag is out of the question... One of the reasons why the NP was implemented was to increase the level of dynamic gameplay in a battle and this can be achieved by an increase in the rate at which flags could be capped or control points captured or enemy players destroyed. Thus, explaining the increase in speed of the majority of hulls. This would be ruined if a mammy had an increase in health since it would be harder to eliminate.

 

Just stating my opinions :)

This is the frist update I actually like since the RB, I might return to play ;)

You change our équipments, then, you must repay us, that's all !

I was trying to adapt to new shaft and get used to it. But what I have realized is that shaft is playable only in Stadium or in Bridges, in such large maps.

Lets look at the definitions of shaft:

Shaft: The Shaft gun was designed by scientists who gave it enormous capabilities. It can make coffee (really?), deliver pizzas (come on already), pay bills, 

but its main features is the sniper mode, which allows you to stay one step ahead of your opponents. Get a unique opportunity to fight at long and short distances,

as you can fire without using its sniper scope

 

Now isn't that cheating the customers? Is that new marketing technics? You can not fight without using its sniper scope, because it is useless.

And you can not fight short distance, because it is too slow when the enemy is turning around you.. You can't use its sniper mode. They should have changed the description of it, when they have changed its characteristics

I ranked up just today and I don't think I will play again. I have achieved the target. Becoming Marshal without paying a single cent and make at least three m3 combos. And new physics, which I never stop calling rebalance, is giving me headache. I mean, a real headache. Tanks are too fast, turning around you, camera is too fast and it really hurts the eyes. I was here only because tanki was not that crazy fast game. I can't play "Counter Strike" or "Need for Speed" or any fast games, since it really hurt my eyes and brain. Now tanki has become one of them. After playing more than an half hour, I feel dizzy. I may return only if they make the game slower, the way it must be. I will come for daily bonuses perhaps. But if that goes like this a long long time, then I doubt if i log in even for daily bonuses. It could be boring, waste of time.

 

P.S: The "adem_2011" is also my account. But I don't need to use it anymore, since one of my account is Marshal now. I don't care much. The game is not healthy anymore. Literally

Lol,I'm starting to like the new physics now Cuz I know how to solve it. :P

:o Not impressed with new changes,  Shaft is way tooo slow to respond to threats, any tank with a shaft is easy pickin's,  My garage is worthless now, too much invested in mamoth and shaft.

[okatamura 6]

Im very disappointed about that update. My shooting skils are gone. My hornet running like crazy - unnaturally. Its just impossible to shoot while driving or turning (Railgun). Its only good for stilling flags. There is almost no different between normal and NO2.  Freezers, insidas are happy, but thay were happy already before. Its unfair to change the rules like this. I was one of the best in my level in shooting - now its lower than average.  What am I supposed to do? By Mammoth and stay on position all battle?! Thats not my style ! Thank you very much - "developers"!!!

My hornet was mad too, but you just have to practise. Now, I really like my hornet!
