When the XT skins update will be in the game ? 

According to this article, estimated date was Feb-March, but it's April already.

I hope it will come soon.  :mellow:

Cure for the general blues?

 

Tanki is boring the crap out of me at the moment. I'm outgunned and out hulled in every battle.

 

Sick to death of M4 twins, finger jammed on the space bar hitting 12345 as fast as possible. 

 

Spending hundreds if not thousands of Xtals per game in drugs to get maybe 40 back because the team I'm on seems to be made up entirely of chimps at the zoo or drunkards mashing the keys with their foreheads.

 

BORED BORED BORED

 

Someone tell me the secret of having all the drugs active all the time. I swear I've seen players self destruct when the drugs run out so they can respawn with a fresh set and go all over again. 

 

Is there light at the end of the tunnel or is it a railgun on drugs just about to do 4000 points of damage to my 3500 hp tank?

 

Oh and a little reminder to the 5 year olds. If the whole team goes tear-arsing off towards the opposition's flag it leaves ours undefended, idiots. 

 

Help, anyone?

patience ,dude ,play pro battle for a while and do all missions regularly for like 2-3 months with very few drugs ,then you dont have to worry about drugs and druggers possibly ever.

when will the new mission chain system start? 

Sometime next week, according to the devs- I personally think at the start of May.

If the update gets released as planned (next week), it's likely to start with the server update on Thursday, which is when updates normally get rolled out.

Who creates the non-pro battles that we see in the battle list every day? I've always been under the assumption that it's been developers and/or battle moderators, and the question has always been on my mind since.

 

Thank you in advance for answering.

I think they are automatically created by the server when the battle button is pressed.

what to do when you just clicked to join a good battle and stupid tanki redirect you to the lame html5 site ?

As maryam said, I believe they are randomly generated by the server. Some are created when Battle is pressed, some may be created automatically (Need a source for that).

apparently there is a noob software they call it "system " which makes the battle.how it makes battle and when it makes its unknown.

So you've already reached the lobby in the flash version and only after you join a battle you get taken to the HTML version? If so, I'm not aware of any solution yet, other than playing through the client or standalone flash player (since it's impossible to be redirected to HTML there).

 

As maryam said, I believe they are randomly generated by the server. Some are created when Battle is pressed, some may be created automatically (Need a source for that).

All non-PRO battles are created by the system when someone clicks the Battle button and no battles are available yet in the selected game mode. So yeah, in a way players create the battles, but the system randomly picks the map.

What does -70% cone angle alt mean? is it bad or good? for firebird

I assume you are talking about the High Pressure Pump alteration? Basically, -70% cona angle means that your Firebird will cover less area:

 

 

(Sorry about my cruddy digital art skilz) So, to answer your question, its bad. However, the alteration also makes firebird's range much longer which, if you ask me, makes it worth it.

You say its bad? then You say its worth it?  I'm confused

[Pyre 3,485]

Alterations make 2 changes to your turret : 1 good thing, and 1 bad thing. In this case, the bad thing is that your firebird covers less area. The good part is that it shoots further. I think that in this case the good outweighs the bad, and that the alteration is worth getting, if you have the crystals.

theoretically you're right but... the crazy devs don't make it as they say.. actual difference is much smaller.

 

without alteration and with

So technically without alteration is better because the fire has a wide angle? I don't get the alteration point, why did they make it straight.

not really, the alteration doubles the range of maximum damage... meaning without the alteration... you do weaker damage to targets beyond 10 meters... but with the alteration, damage only decreases after 20 meteres... so basically you kill them quicker from a further range.
