What do you mean about default skins? Are default skins XT versions of skins?

A default skin is the way your tank looks when you have no skin equipped. This is an example of a default skin:

Ah, now I understand. A default skin is when you have no skins equipped. That is an excellent idea. This V-Log 278 does not properly explain that.

I personally think that developers should do the same thing for paints. A default paint would consist of only one paint when your tank has no paint equipped. A good idea for a default paint would be a "dead paint" like the one we seen on Halloween 2020, a while ago. I always thought that it would be a good thing to unequip your paint when you do not want to wear one.

Well, the default paint is more-or-less the Green paint, since it's the one everyone starts with when they register, and it's the standard camouflage colour for real tanks operating in the temperate region.

@Maf

I understand your concern here, but what if you, me or any other player wants to unequip that paint? I mean remove that paint completely so your tanks does not have a paint equipped. That would result in a rusty looking tank. Something like this:

No paint equipped means that your tank would have a rusty appearance. That's what I mean by unequipping your paint.

I haven’t read all the comments so I might be repeating somebody, but my suggestion is, re-add the bad quality original M3 skins as optional, free skins in the garage, because you can be certain some people will complain.

Well, the bad quality skins are going to be replaced with good quality skins. That's what's going to happen because if developers plan to make Tanki Online better in visual effects and graphics, they are going to need to eliminate the bad stuff that is old and outdated to be replaced with brand new skins and graphic textures for tanks.

@RIDDLER_8 Oh i agree, the graphics of this game as they are are very outdated. But it’s just that the way this community tends to be so obsessed with the past, I’m thinking a bit of the whining could be avoided by giving players the option to keep using the old skins, in other words the same as with the current legacy skins but for free. It wouldn’t affect the gameplay and shouldn’t be very hard to implement, so why not do it.

I guess that the new default M3 skins are going to be similar as the legacy skins, but with a twist, they are going to be improved versions of legacy/XT hybrid skins. I may be correct here. That's what I think will happen.

I wish we had the "dead paint" look to unequip paints.

Not a problem. It is not on the HTML5 version of the game yet.

So, if the improved versions of the skins that are going to replace the current default skins, will the skins players own in their garage be replaced or removed?

They will be updated (get the new skins) and if you have them you will find the new mdified skins in your garage

[RIDDLER_8 5,552]

@Xx_Im_a_Legend_xX

That's great that I will get to keep my default M3 skins with modified appearances. Turrets and hulls themselves are going to get a completely new re-design overhaul which is also amazing for getting the best possible graphics in Tanki Online. After that, maps are going to be graphically improved as well.

[RIDDLER_8 5,552]

Perhaps in next week's V-Log 279, developers are going to discuss about the end of Flash, or the week after that. However, for sure, in the upcoming V-Log 279, developers are going to talk about the end of this experiment and what it brought for Tanki Online for a future update on turret and hull buff.

Read the news about the Mad Tanks experiment here:

This experiment forum is still open, so hurry up posting there your feedback on how the experiment went.

Yeah I agree! We should still be able to obtain them some way. We've had them for 8-9 years. It'd break my heart to see them go. I know the new skins will look the same but in HD but it'd still be nice to have them.

Umh... this reminds me of something...

I have seen your YouTube channel. Its great. I even subscribed to it.

Tomorrow's V-Log 279 news about how the experiment went will be exciting to hear. There is also mentions in this new episode of the V-Log, a new ultra weekend. That's before Black Friday 2020 sales.
