I doubt Tanki has enough things to "learn" in order to have a whole TIL topic aboit it, but we'll see where this goes.

I find new lines of sight often and it's fun watching people trying to work out where that annoying Smoky is, but I'm not sure if I want to share them...

Today I learned that someone should move this to the Forum Games section and add the tag: [Forum Game] to the start of the title.

 

Also, if that's off-topic, then I also learned that the October challenges are starting on October 2nd. 

 

Also, Viking kinda sucks without it's OD

When you're randomly selected as the next juggernaut, then get killed, the percentage by which your hull overdrive had charged will be reset to zero. This is especially painful when using Viking.

How? I mean yea it slides around too often, but you can't just say a hull sucks lol. That's a subjective topic.

Oh jeez, I hadn't even thought of that! And Viking Overdrives are crucial to victory. I use Hunter in that mode so I didn't mind it much. I guess even more incentive to protect the Juggernaut.

Today i learmed that Tanki is dying harder then i expected . I do not mean it bad , and i knew i was coming , MM made biggest contribution to it , but now today im without mission or challenge i feel totally lost in the server . Noise , oh 1 game to join but its about 50% full , even polygon no games there and then i realised ... this game is walking not on its last legs but it is hanging by a single wire .

This game is dead , we all know it, it is a shame and i feel sad because of it but it is a fact . They have done it to themselves and that is the biggest thing . Tanki could have suprvived a lot longer imho if they left it the way it was a few y ago . Yes i know , a game evolves but they have made the wrong decisions even when people told them . MM was the biggest thing , it ruined all fun game play ... i can go on and on and on .... but the facts are what they are ....

PS i do not play any other game , and beside any card game id not know where i gonna go next and i still hope for some kind of reappearance in the world of gaming .

That I'm always the first jugger, what is this based on?

 

edit: on my alt btw

Maybe your PC has faster than average loading? So you are the first to spawn and thus; receive Juggernaut.

But isn't it random who gets juggernaut at the start of each match?

 

I remember joining some battles with my name showing up first on the score board but the jgr being given to someone else.

Nothing was mentioned about how the first Juggernaut is given so I'm not too sure, I would assume its the same system as when the Juggernaut dies since I've noticed that if I load particularly fast I'll get it.

 

Maybe there is a slight difference from what shows on your screen and server side due to ping.

When the juggernaut dies, the game looks for the players who've either just been destroyed or are in the process of re-spawning. I don't know what it does to end up with a certain player, but I think it could be by random choice as well, or the player who's closest to spawning.

 

Maybe there is a delay on my side, since my ping's been pretty annoying lately, but I can't know for sure if that's always the case.

 

If the developers could do a little more clarification on this aspect of JGR it'd be really appreciated.
