For holdout players who play on Flash

  1. 1. Before Tanki gave us Flash players their obnoxious pop-up, did you know that Flash was being phased out and would be discontinued?

    • Why No! ...I had no idea! Thank goodness Tanki has been so thoughtfull as to remind me every two minutes!

That pop-up is not aimed at you. The very fact that you logged into the forum and are using it to post your opinions already means that you are more involved in this project and the community than, I'd guess, 90% of the players. The vast majority of people only log into their account to play some battles and complete missions. They don't care about having in-game friends, joining groups/clubs, doing eSports, or even following the V-logs and updates. Those are the people, who may not be aware about the situation with Flash, and who may be encouraged to switch to HTML5 after seeing it.

Regardless, I don't see the point in protesting and boycotting HTML5 so relentlessly. This isn't a matter of choice or opinion, because Flash WILL be shut down within a few months, and at that point you will only have two options: move to HTML5 or quit the game.

HTML5 will continue improving over time, but there obviously won't be any major changes (like adding an option for the old interface) that would instantly change your opinion about it. Yes, there are issues and design decisions you may not like — it is what it is. So if you want to continue playing Tanki, I would recommend trying HTML5 at least for short periods of time and gradually get used to it, so that you won't have to experience the sudden change when Flash becomes unavailable.

If the pop up is not aimed at us, then why is there no option to cancel it, or dismiss it? 

There is nothing gradual about this transmission process. If you can, tell the developers to stop telling lies in the previous VLOG's.

Why can't there be an option for a retro interface?

 

Haha honestly guys, there are better games you can play. I think two of the reasons why I'm still here personally is: 1. Never had a PS4 / Xbox, but Tanki normally runs well even on office PC's so I am able to play. I would have loved to try games such as GTA 5, maybe FIFA with friends. Even GTA 4 I tried it but it wouldn't run well on that laptop ?

Honestly PC gaming looks like the best option due to the shared TV.

 2. Like others, been here for about 7 years surprisingly. I do genuinely like the game and always want to improve my skills. 

If not for these 2 reasons and mostly reason 1, I would probably be on other games. Despite their terrible management, it is a good game to play and relax.

but I don't use it for playing any more because it's too unstable

How is it unstable in your opinion?

people who really want to play the game will switch to html5 after flash is gone

those who are playing just because the last few weeks remaining now of flash will leave for good after its gone, nothing you can do to get these players back

right now the stupid popup and missions thing is only making players who still use flash leave... i dont know of a single one who has switched to html5 after these useless updates

Very true,but the number will be significantly reduced though.

Tanki will start advertising in 2021 most likely if it wants to sustainably survive with profit.
