I have looked in the test servers to see if the Crusader hull was there, and it is not there. That is unusual.

Why is Crusader not in the test servers? I am aware that Crusader will be released next week, like it says in this V-Log 281.

Я просмотрел тестовые серверы, чтобы увидеть, был ли там корпус Crusader , а его там нет. Это необычно.

Почему Crusader нет на тестовых серверах? Я знаю, что Crusader выйдет на следующую неделю, как написано в этом V- протоколе 281 .

Hello.Test servers are not game servers for the entertainment of players. They are necessary for testing the game, identifying bugs and other shortcomings. Each of them is a developer tool - it can be enabled or disabled when needed by developers and can have a variety of settings

I guess that it would be a good idea if developers added another test server which only included hulls that are in beta testing so that me and other players can do a mass testing of new hulls and turrets before they are released on the main servers.

The test servers can be improved so please make improvements on them. Test servers can be used like a sandbox for testing purposes of equipment in late development stages.

Why are new turrets and hulls in pre-release category called "spoilers"?

cuz they're gonna spoil game balance after being introduced Maybe since only a little info about them is explained till their release. A small "sneak-peek"...

I am sorry if this mistake caused you any inconvenience.

I forgive you for nothing. Why would supply boxes cause anyone inconvenience?

This is the episode of the V-Log 281 where we all celebrate and wave goodbye to the good old Flash version of Tanki Online. I was very happy, a while back that developers announced that there were going to be a celebration for Flash so that players could have some nostalgia about that old game client which came to an end for Tanki Online.

As for some websites, Flash will continue to get some minor support until December 31st 2020, which is approximately three weeks time. After that date, Flash will no longer receive any support updates, so that will be the total death of the Flash client. HTML5 and other technologies will take much greater grip with usability and technology support with new and even better features than now.

There are lots of cool and interesting stuff coming in 2021. I am not sure what, but my best guess is more turrets and hulls for this coming year. In the meantime, let's celebrate Christmas and Happy New Year 2020 in Tanki Online when that date arrives in three weeks time. Stay informed in upcoming V-Logs for that epic holiday.

You need to then place the idea in the topic ideas and suggestions. https://en.tankiforum.com/forum/182-ideas-and-suggestions/

I did that already.

Flash is now dead. That means that HTML5 and Android versions of Tanki Online will get updates twice as fast. That's a great thing. I hope that Tanki Online will become available someday on PlayStation 5 and on Xbox Series X.

I honestly have hope for tanki, I feel like this is just a phase and more players will join gradually soon enough it'll be as big as it use to be! Who knows we might even get star ladder back-or just a huge esports community.

That's how Crusader looks like when flipped over.

That's what is overdrive does.

Could you flip Crusader in normal gravity, Mr. Riddler?

[RIDDLER_8 5,552]

@Venerable

You could flip Crusader in normal gravity but I haven't tried yet. Since Crusader is just as stable as Hopper, it is very difficult to flip. I have noticed that when I get killed using Hopper, the hull flips over most of the time after is blows up. Crusader flips over as well when it blows up.
