Right now the game is unplayable. It lags so bad you can't even load a game. And it has me listed as a Warrant officer 3 with 4.2 million points. It would not even let me use drugs or overdrive. Something has happened because this morning everything was fine, except for the huge number of cheaters getting their double battle funds.

 

Someone please report.

Based on your description,I think you were redirected to the HTML5 version of the game. This version is still in testing phase, which is why the performance for some players isn't good yet. You can access the Flash version again by using this link: tankionline.com/flash

Still waiting over 2 minutes longer than the average wait time. If i just quit and rejoin, it does the same thing or it artificially decreases the average wait time.

 

Or should I still not post this yet?

try doing this . when the timer reaches about 30 seconds and your still waiting . then hit exit button and then rejoin battle button again . but this time it will get you into a battle with in 5 seconds and I have  been finding most of the ones I do join are like 10 minutes / or about 8 minutes still in battle time. been finding the system is making battles but not sure why there not adding  players who are waiting. 

if you do get into a battle on long wait times I find most battles are less then 5 minutes still on timer to battle.. just been doing this these past few days and its been working..others are also been doing this..

Cooper - exactly right - going to flash works great.

 

Now if you could just do something about the cheaters

Yeah that'd be great.

Hey, why are we releasing the mobile version when if we could intergreat mobile with the current game and we turn on mobile version from the settings, because with the release of HTML5 we will be able to play Tanki online on browser on mobile device without needing flash, when they had a test of HTML5 on the main servers I logged onto my Tanki account using safari on my iPad,

 

Just a idea :)

The mobile version will be far more optimised in nearly every way than playing in a browser. And having a full mobile game attracts new players.

Missions don't get completed easily now. Like mission in which we have to earn experience doesn't counts correctly. I earned 700+ exp in a match for a mission which required 500 experience to complete but it only showed 350 exp. Please fix this

Battle points/scores are not the same as experience points (green bar). The battle point are generated by performing key action in battles. Then they are used to calculate your crystal reward.

They used to be the same though, right?

Used to,but they were small differences, like if you self you would lose some score point but not the experience points.

Mine hack ?
I was playing arena DM and a (Russian) player typing a lot of words like a mad in Russian (aliens) language then all voted him then he left , how could that be possible ? He was putting invisible mines I swear he annoyed me a lot like you moving ur tank in peace and looking around and ... Boooooooom ! Your tank has been destroyed by invincible mine .
He is in my friend list I'll invite him and I'll use google translate to talk him and to tell him use that hack I want to see it again then I'll record him .

The best to complete exp msiions are DM it gives same exp & points i think

We need to make ranks cost 2x the xp so we can get more crystals in a rank before having to level up and face harder people

Missions don't get completed easily now. [...]

in my opinion I enjoy how it's more hard to complete my missions, I come to Tanki to look for a challenge and I barely found those kind of battles before MM and of course led to easily completing missions and it was too easy for me, I wanted a challenge now that MM I've got that. Yes there is all that talk about improvement etc. But that's just my own opinion of how easy and how things got boring for me before MM.

[Pyre 3,485]

Tanki may have found a new way to cheat the players.

 

When I bought Hammer I bought the 5-shot clip alteration.

 

I have NEVER turned it off.

 

I just get out of a game because all I had was a 3-shot drum!

 

I am carefully checking everything I own to make sure tanki is not sabotaging me. 

All alterations were unequipped when the XT skins were released.

And protection modules... explains the easy deaths...

And protection modules... explains the easy deaths...

Many people in battles still haven't noticed they don't have any protection equipped.

A bug is by definition is an error in a computer program or system. If it happens time to time then it is still a bug as something clearly didn't happened as intended, you should have been placed in a battle within the time frame intended. 

Once you will develop complex program that require internet you will find out interesting results. Maybe internet failed, maybe your pc is old, whatever,.. a programmer should be able to reduce some of the issue, but the user should be able to find some work around too - So if it takes too long, just exit.

Anyway glad to see that it didn't happen to you all the time.

Obviously, your comment here indicates that you have neither developed a complex program nor you have managed a business that depends on the internet! I can't imagine an Airline reservation system, or a healthcare system having this kind of issues and the frequency it happens in Tanki! How long do you thing they will stay in business if they told their customers "sorry you have an old computer and we cannot process your request"! 

 

It is astonishing the amount of bugs in the Tanki program! You cannot deny the fact that every single time that even when the smaller change is made, the program contains multiple bugs. From the notorious lag to the blank screens to the nebulous "an error has occurred". Yet, no one wants to admit that this MM system has been an utter failure since the majority of the players do not want it, for various reasons, among of which one is the bugs that seem to plague Tanki even more now than before. 

 

Just do an experiment and bring back the regular battles in the battle and leave the MM button there. Let's see how many players will chose the MM. But I know something like this will not happen and since I do not have the time to wait 1-2 min between battles that last maybe 3 min at the most, I have reduced my playing time significant.  Also, for your information, I do have a fast computer, with dual Xeon processors, 16 GB RAM, an NVIDIA video card, with a 250 Mbps very stable Internet connection and I am hardwired to a router with a Gbit connection and I still have all the problems that many experience here.  So, what is the common denominator here? You go figure and let us know.

 

You can try to justify Tanki's shortcomings as much as you want but you are in the minority.

Mission score not being counted properly or I have missed something? 
Did ~450 exp in CTF, mission only counts ~320.

Wow !

Same thing for me and for one of my friends but I'm too lazy to use google translate and find the words to explain !

Saudi Arabian people are saying "we don't mind losing from Russian but 5-0 is humiliating now we are leaving this game"   :ph34r:

Battle Points (BP) as in the battle score board are very different form experience point (shown in green XP bar) now. The mission count the XP gained (added to the green xp bar), while the score board show how you are participating int he battle. For example, capping will always give you 50 BP (as today) while before it was 10 time the number of enemy. BP are higher than xp. So this is why your  missions show a lower value.

Being a mod I though you'd be aware about match making update, They made changes in exp. I mean messed the exp with score, means you'll earn more in game score but same exp as before. Which will give you more rewards. I know I made it more complicated for you?  :ph34r:

Shouldnt have asked, brainstorm, blown mind, explosion.
