Why does Tanki Online load poorly with fast internet?

Question

Regularly, I check that my internet is working, and it is. All other websites load just fine, and a speed test reads "fast" (at least). And yet, it takes 2+ minutes to load into a battle and I frequently have incredibly high ping once I finally get in.

I doing something wrong that prevents me from properly loading a battle?

I'm using a Macbook Air, Opera browser, and the web HTML5 version. Cookies/website data are allowed to be stored.

Hi there. The Mac HTML5 Desktop client has been released for quite a bit of time now - here's a direct download link. It works faster for me when compared to the browser version, and hopefully it should work fine for you too.

I tried it, and it's a little faster. Still, not close to what I'd expect given my connection.

I think that it might be Tanki's servers, though. This is a fairly recent problem, and the servers appear to have crashed a couple of minutes ago. Hopefully, things will be back to normal once they come back online.

Hey, at least it's an improvement.

Maybe it could be HTML5 in particular. It usually does consume more data than Flash, so you could try the good old Flash version. Here's the download link for that.

And yes, there was an unannounced server restart several minutes ago. Let's wait for an official announcement as to why that happened.
