Is it possible for TO to fix the server issues?

[ekf 88]

Despite them saying that they were solved the are still issues with the serves in my experience- tanks teleporting, sometimes you dont re-spawn after dying, sometimes doing no damage randomly...

I heard that it's caused by a DDOS attack (not sure what that is exactly) and isn't Tanki's fault.

So how screwed is TO with dealing with this? Can they fix the problem completely?

Probably not. If you think about the number of different device/OS/ISP/location combinations players can have, there's an infinite number of nuances that can happen, causing the issues you described. There's no single solution to it all — the best thing devs can do is continually polish and improve their server architecture to allow it to deal with a wider range of errors.

There are many games where you rarely have to worry about lags and when there are lags, its mostly your internet connection. Idk why tanki is exception

Because of DDOs attack? Or low quality servers? If thats possible, I dont know how servers work.

as far as i know you arent only one who experiences lags, today i too experienced 1 lag which cost 1 flag but anyways. because many experience it, its probably servers fault. but to be fair this lags arent as bad as they were few months ago, and they are pretty seldom, at least for me. i doubt there is any more ddos attack, well they can use this excuse but if it really is it, then it is simply funny :DD. and if they have low quality servers thats straight of main problem lol

The annoying thing for me is the mini lags where tanks move in a choppy way making them hard to hit. Maybe its my internet connections fault of you dont experience the same thing.
