Community Stream: Dev Stories

[r_Nives5 15,148]

 

Hi, everyone! :)

 

Join me this Sunday for a round of very special interviews with the developers of Tanki Online.

 

The interviews are off-script, NOT live recordings I've made back in September from the office in Perm, Russia.

 

Between each interview I will do a LIVE Q&A, sharing my feelings about working at Alternativa and answering any questions about Tanki, game development in general and what we have in plans for October.

 

See you on the stream ;)

 

NOTE: There will be no promo codes, battles or gold box drops this stream—it's about the people who make Tanki.

 

LIVE Q&A: You can also post your questions for me in advance, here. And yes, I will read the names out loud.

 

THE STREAM:

 

[Hate 5,582]

Favourite sports for the developers, including you.

[Fruit 6,570]

Sounds like a very interesting stream, hope I'll be able to check it out!

[Kurt_KurtDGreat 2,259]

Nice to have a stream where the comments aren't all about bashing you cos the codes aren't working, even though manyyyy people explain to them they have to be the first. Hope they are related to the stream and interesting now :ph34r:

[Hatty1994 819]

Will developers come & answer questions of players in this stream ? 

[robbiealdo 373]

Can you already tell us anything about the Halloween event? It's one of the most exciting events of the year.

[Apex_Predator 537]

OMG OMG OMG  :wub: 

 

i wish if you have a full Interview with Anna  :wub:  :wub:  :wub: 

 

and don't waste time on that troll Hazel  :angry:  :angry:  :angry: , he only make Bad updates, i've been asking him to add more paints since 2016  :( 

 

also i want the old paints bellow back, because i wasn't around when they where here so it's not fair to not have them.  :(

This stream the interviews will be recorded, not live.

 

In the future, I hope to introduce live Q&As with the devs :)

[Misery 1,415]

No profit, not interested.

Just kidding!

[Ninja 10,468]

I'll be there, as usual. :P

[SamirAWSM 203]

Could you allow us to complete the Daily Mission in PRO BATTLE because players who are ranked with general and legends are suffering from completing the 9999 mission and its really difficult to kill in non pro battle

Or I can suggest another idea ...just allow us to complete ONLY the 9999 mission in PRO OR NON-PRO

 

Thank You

Sergei abi what are your future plans for Tanki Online ? :)

[Like.Dead2 4]

And Sergei abi we will see you in later vlogs ? :D

[Hex 11,520]

Sounds interesting!

[Magenta 5,165]

I will be there to give you moral support, Nives. Unless I don't finish all the weekend work I have procrastinated.

 

Q: When will Alternativa resume advertising Tanki Online? How soon can we expect the player counts to rise like it used to, in the initial years?

 

We already know the devs story thx very much :P :

One day, a kiddo named Hazel said:
'Lets make a bad game that no one wants to play!'

So he set up a company called AlternivaPlatform and created a game called Tanki. But loads of people came to play so Hazel recruited a potato called Ostrica to try to make everyone quit. And 16 years later...

Players online: 0

:mellow:

Hazel is not the CEO, Founder, or anything like that. He is just an employee of the company, tasked with advising the company about making changes to Tanki Online. Tanki X, for instance, is 100% out of his jurisdiction.

 

That's right, he is an adviser in essence. He cannot just wake up one day and order the nerds who code up the game to do put a new overdrive in the game. He must inform those higher up, and wait for their approval.

 

Calling him the Founder is like calling a bank branch manager the founder of the bank.

 

Not to mention that the tyrant ( :P) was recruited by the all-loved bigger-tyrant @semyonkirov.

Hazel didn't set up that company, nor does he own it. He's an employee of the company.

[Magenta 5,165]

All thought I must say, Hazel looks (and only looks) like a @Mad@Scientist.

[Stratosphere 2,234]

I'll be there. Remember the time I sent you a few badges in the middle of the stream?  :ph34r:

[Magenta 5,165]

Am I not allowed to have some fun too after getting banned :huh:?

Of course you can, but there are people who don't care about checking their facts, who will believe anything they are told and they want to believe. What you said is clearly a joke, we understand, but there are those who don't, will take it seriously, believe it, and live to spread the rumours. Ever wonder why so many actually sincerely believe that admins drop gold (which they do, but rarely :P, but they believe that only admins drop golds)?

 

Obviously, you can go on cracking such jokes if you will kindly put this banner at the top:

 

THIS IS A JOKE DON'T TAKE SERIOUSLY

 

If you do that, Coop won't bother you no more ^_^

When you implement the unified battle list (good) and/or Matchmaking (maybe good, maybe not), will you remove Missions like Finish 1st and Crystal Missions? Finish 1st will be very hard, only two in 20 will accomplish it, and Crystal Missions are not fair to the players of the losing team that stayed in the battle until the end.

 

Could you explain the system of rewards that you will be implementing for Standard Battles with Matchmaking, is it the same as the one used during the 48 hour mass testing? (I don't remember it well) Is it similar to Tanki X? (I think I like it)

 

If you play as a close defender or camping defender, which Hull with abilities would you choose between Hunter and Dictator?

Good Luck! :D

[BlackWasp777 4,498]

cool idea :)

I maybe can not watch the live stream at it's streaming time, so I hope the recorded version will be online soon thereafter ;)

[delnina2 1,570]

I have a question for you. 

 

Are you really sleeping in the office ? 

[Stratosphere 2,234]

any promocodes?

None. It has been clearly stated. :)

[NXS_Neta_King 654]

Sounds interesting! :rolleyes:
