Hello, tankers!

 

A downloadable client of the HTML-5 version of the game is now available on our website!

 

We’ve already said many times, that Flash is a thing of the past. All the main browsers are gradually giving up on it, and already in October 2020, it will not be supported anymore.

We really want you to still be able to play “Tanki Online” for many years, that why we’ve created the HTML-5 version of the game.

 

Previously, the HTML5 version was available only in browsers but in parallel with the development of the browser version we were working on the downloadable client. We have already dropped a link to it under one of V-LOG episodes and on the forum a few months ago but haven’t replaced the link on the main page.

 

Due to the worldwide lockdown situation, we had to wait much more time to receive a special certificate to sign the application. That was the reason why we haven’t replaced the link on the main page, but finally, all steps of certification have been left behind and the new HTML5 client is available right on the main page.

Many of you have moved to the HTML5 version but others still doubt it. We would like to remind you about two main reasons to move to the new version.

First — there is not much time left before the Flash version will be discontinued and you will have to move to the HTML5 version in order to keep playing your favorite game.

Second — the HTML5 version has a lot of advantages!


Obvious advantages of the HTML5-version:
 

  • Smoother FPS on powerful PCs and absence of FPS limit for monitors with high screen frequency.

  • A drastic decrease in the number of critical error and “crashes”

  • Modern, practical interface.

  • Awesome visual effects, that were not possible earlier.

  • Unlimited potential for developing new content (including new turrets and hulls).

 

New engine - new features!

 

Download, play and give us your opinion about it in comments. We are actively watching your feedback and try to take it into account during the development process!

I don't quite understand, why can't Tanki just make the HTML5 version identical (or with a few fixes/updates) to the flash, seeing as 95% of the Tanki community don't even like HTML5?

HTML5 version takes much more RAM than Flash version. In flash client, I can play like 10+ matches before memory gets full.

But in HTML5, it slows down my PC.

In the official YouTube channel of the game, the reasons are mentioned.

Isn't it clear to Tanki that most people don't like HTML5 graphics etc?

It suits players who always say lagg

As how i understand it, it has to do with potential of the new interface, since they can bring much more to the table bcs of it.

They did that, they worked on it for 1 year, it was completely broken and then they had to make this one.

I was forced to play on it when my Flash didn't work for some reason. It was so trash.

Still don't understand why you cannot/don't make the HTML client same graphics as flash since it seems pretty clear nearly everyone prefers the flash graphics to HTML otherwise why wouldn't we have moved already, since much fewer errors the only thing stopping people is graphics and you have never answered this or changed it.

Please could you let us know why this is @Marcus

Downloaded. Launched. Deleted. My anti-virus software considered it a virus and snapped its fingers on the disgusting html5 version. That was not taken care of despite your claims. I am using McAfee. Luckily for me, it means I still get to enjoy the good old flash version (please bring back features of the flash version to the html. I don't see how anyone would play this sickening version once the flash will be gone).

That would be horrible. Tankis flash layout has been almost the same since 2010 (few new buttons etc). Html5 is much more modern and looks like a game you'd see in 2020 not 2010.

I got nothing and that was before this was "fixed".

make an alternate interface for html 5 that is identical to the current flash interface and you can chose what one you want to use. hardly anyone likes the html 5 interface compared to the intuitive flash interface. then again, hardly anyone likes playing this anymore so perhaps its fitting.
