Is it possible for Hammer to get OD activated in less than one minute after battle has started? It just happened in Brest. I was the only one in the area who was ready for battle. There was one ghosting and the other 3 weren't moving. Hammer came in with SB activated, activated OD, killed me and left with our flag. 

Nuclear Energy.

Also, if he got a few kills the Driver drone could have boosted him to 100%. Less likely though.

There wasn't enough time to get any kills. Seems that he and I were the only ones moving. I know our team wasn't moving much. It was like the Twilight Zone. He capped, I respawned and everyone had started to move around. I know I wasn't lagging because I did damage to him as he came in. Before my team could get organized, the other team came in, took over the base and capped two more flags.

Well it would be the nuclear energy

Parade of the Beginners

[CommanderTFR2346 64]

I came back to this game a two weeks ago after 2 or 3 years without playing it. I remember playing on Madness. I can’t play it now because I am on mobile as it is the only thing that can run Tanki (my laptop is way too slow now). I am aware that it has changed after seeing many threads saying, “bring back old madness”but I have a few questions.

 

1) Is the ambient sound still there?

I really liked this unique feature.

 

2)Why was the skybox changed to a boring green hill background?

If they had to change the map, why did they need to change the skybox, it made you feel like you were fighting in space and just gave the map a unique feel.

 

3)Why was the map changed in the first place?

I’ve said the word unique multiple times but I’ll say it again. It was a really unique map and it was fun driving off the top, hoping you would land right side up or without falling into the void.

If they had to change the map, why did they need to change the skybox, it made you feel like you were fighting in space and just gave the map a unique feel. The former skybox has been put to use in the actual space mode, along with (I think) the music.

I’ve said the word unique multiple times but I’ll say it again. It was a really unique map and it was fun driving off the top, hoping you would land right side up or without falling into the void. I think they said balance reasons, but frankly I think it was a terrible mistake. The map went from regularly played to never seen.

[CommanderTFR2346 64]

Ok thanks. I have another one.

 

Is Thunder obsolete in High ranks (General upwards), because I’ve seen a lot of people with protection modules against it. I run an M2 thunder and am curious if it’s worth investing more crystals in it in the future. I don’t want to spend crystals on something that everyone has 50% protection against.

Thats interesting. There is a reason everyone has those modules: it is OP. With the modules, it becomes balanced or even slightly underpowered, but it can wreak havoc on anyone without the modules, or you can use Hornets overdrive to ignore them. Ofc this is coming from a non-thunder user, but I think its pretty accurate.

Many reasons: Instant travel time, kill targets even they are hiding, fast reload time, Sledgehammer Round, and long distance.

And the fact that it's easy to use and it's rewarding which is a great combo for someone who doesn't want to put in effort to learn a turret with a steep learning curve.

Does problems with forum glitches go into "Bugs and Glitches"? I posted one glitch there but no one responded. Now it's gotten worse. I need to know if it's me or the forum.

It may be you. I don't seem to be having any problems.

When you are in edit mode you cannot click on links. I always had that. It might also depends of the browser too (I use Firefox).

If you double clicks, it opens the panel.

Thanks. But is it still effective enough at those ranks. For example if used properly, can you top the leaderboard with a dictator m3 thunder m3 combo? Also do you guys think it needs a buff or is it fine how it is?

I am fully aware of that. I've been making links to Tanki Wiki, offsite websites (ie: YouTube) and players' nicknames and making spoilers successfully on this browser, Chrome, the only one I use for Tanki (Firefox isn't working right on Tanki). 

 

Last night, I spent over 1 hour 30 minutes trying to update my topic http://en.tankiforum.com/index.php?showtopic=380010. Nothing was working right. I would put the spoilers and links in correctly, but when I hit the Save Changes button, the links were in the color of the text and the spoilers weren't working. Then the text started changing to the default color grey. I cleared my browser, cache and even all 813 cookies. (What a mess this is going to be). Didn't work. This morning, I worked on it for another hour, still same problem. A few minutes ago, I went back to my topic and the links were there, not in color of the text. The colored text that went from my chosen color to default color is back in my chosen color. I'm afraid to try to use the spoiler for fear everything will change again, but not the way I wanted it. 

 

I'll try a spoiler here: 

 

 

Is it working?

We shall see. I see the link worked, too.

[Viking4s 10,791]

Try the BBC code mod. Or select the eraser to remove all format. Save and then edit.

I'm sorry, I don't understand what the BBC Code mod has to do with the links and spoilers not working in my topic. Please explain.

Yes, it is possible to top the leaderboard. Its already OP, protection modules just balance it.
