Patch Update #750 - Released 22nd December 2023

 

• Keys

  • Instead of Regular Containers, players now receive Common Keys

  • Instead of Weekly Containers, players now receive Rare Keys

  • Instead of Ultra Containers, players now receive Epic Keys

  • Instead of Skin Containers, players now receive Legendary Keys

  • (Note) You no longer earn containers. They are now always available in the Containers menu screen. However, you need to earn keys. A key is used to open a container of the same type.

• Players no longer have units of containers in the Garage

  • If a player agreed to the conversion procedure, 1 key has been added for each 10 containers they had.

  • If a player didn’t agree to the conversion procedure, all the containers in their Garage have been opened and the prizes added to their accounts.

• The contents of Epic Containers have been updated.

  • Added a new augment for Striker — «Vacuum Missiles»

    • (Note) The further a target is from the epicenter of the explosion, the more damage it receives. Pressing the fire button again immediately detonates the missile while it is still in the air.

  • Added the «Blaster» augments for Wasp, Hornet, and Hopper

  • Added the «Lifeguard» augment for Viking, Crusader, Hunter, Paladin, and Dictator

  • Added the «Miner» augment for Ares, Titan, and Mammoth

• Epic Keys are now always available in the Shop.

• Added tankoins to Weekly Missions

  • (Note) This is to compensate for the lack of tankoins in Rare Containers which replaced Weekly Containers.

• Improved the captcha feature.

I have agreed to the conversion procedure, but I want to know 9 containers =0 key or 9 containers= 1 key?

If I only have 2 Skin Containers now, will it be converted into a key, or will it disappear directly?

Previously they said it was rounded up, but now that Skin Containers' 3:1 conversion ratio has changed, I'm not sure if the rules have changed again.

Will it prevent saboteur drone mines from disappearing after dying?

This update is probably the biggest update we had in this game. It is also the best one in my opinion. Striker Vacuum is not gonna break the game as many of you have stated. This is only for skilled player who know how to use it and it will be skill and not just power. They have to be accurate and straight to get the biggest damage. Also, remember to thank the devs for their hard work on this update because it is truly amazing. I can't wait to see what good will come in 2024. Best Wishes!

You can't be serious... Hard work on this update..?

Keys - NOBODY asked for them. New animation. Yay. Now I have to wait 10 seconds to get my 100 mines! Sure HD conts look better but i'd rather have OG conts I don't really care about container looks. Not to say the scummy thing of nerfing rewards and then turning 10 conts into a single cont.

 

Striker — «Vacuum Missiles» - Just Remote Rocket Explosive Augment with inverted range + damage calculation. No coder but doesn't sound like a hard thing to do.

 

Blaster, Miner, Lifeguard hull Augments - Toxic AS HELL. Also the drones had the same exact thing on them and were way easier to deal with cuz you saw a blaster and you know the tank is going to explode. Now you'll have mammoth randomly exploding in your face because you didn't check the TAB and new player joined. Same with other ones just different situation.

Added tankoins to Weekly Missions - Cool I guess. Once again something that took 5 minutes of work? 6?

The event is trash and BORING. Even TANKI MODS are hostile towards it and if that's not a bad sign then I don't know what is.

Due to experiences with "technically proper and 100% working" bigger updates in tanki online's history:

Which time tomorrow you are planinng shutting down the servers und are going to post the common phrase

"Unfortunately the update doesn't work as it should be... bla bla... kind of unknown bug... bla bla... we apologize... bla bla...

My guess: 8:30 utc.

Hey, they may put  out an apology/make-good and only tell you its not 24hrs in a sneaky edit to their original post.

*spelling

edit again:  Scorpion color effects would be cool, like Strikers rockets have color effects and so do Magnum shells, Scorpion being seen across the map with colored trails and explosions would be fun.

Why do tankers keep insinuating conflict and lie about the devs. The devs would never take your apology mission in less than 24 hours. They would give everyone a chance to get it and make sure people are ready for the big update. I'm sorry that people are so self-centered they forget every time they comment, they are breaking the developers heart.

please do not lie about other players who bring up recent and bad practices.

After countless bad updates, the developers of this game seems to never learn, this will make more players quit, bad points of this update:

1) A new UI that nobody asked for(The Ui of the "new" mobile is good but what's the point of changing the position and size of buttons of the screen if you can't place them where you want?).
2) Keys rewards are the same reward where you will get a decent amount of them and getting 1000 crystals, supplies and a PAINT.
3) Keys will be frustrating "gather 100 keys through months and when you open them hoping you will get a good reward you'll get the crap rewards".
4) This new Ui will make the game more complex for new players(They want to bring new players but their actions seem to be the opposite".
5) Could be the Best update of the year but became the worst.

Maybe some Youtubers will be "Retaliating" the game with less uploads.
With each update the community of this game shrinks even more, i remember when there was over 100k players playing simutaneously in the LATAM server, now it's probably not even 1k in the EN server.
Hazel said they will make a change to "revive" the game, at this point they better start making this change now because as the time passes the players you have are leaving because of someone's greed, you can't revive this game if it dies completely.

The next updates can save or bury this game forever, be careful with decisions you make from now and so on, grenades are one of the updates that can make your game shut down next year.

[MrRodent 85]

Terrible update.

Weekly Containers got nerfed a while back when the prizes were halved, and now..... Weeklies no longer give out Tankoins... and Scorpion has been nerfed as well so it takes 14 years to lock onto a target.

 

Way to go devs.

Just noticed that the "Epic" item (purple) from regular containers can now be an epic container card. 

What used to be  a lucky draw of  25,000 crystals, now will more than likely ends up being a bunch of worthless mines or speed boosts. 

 

If you're gunna do crap like this balance it with a buff. Epic containers desperately  need a buff. 

3000 crystals?  Mines? speed boosts? These are trash items and have no place in epics. 

Buff your epic containers and you may actually get more people willing to pay actual money for  them. 

Would love to feel excited about opening these "epic" containers. it's always  just disappointing.  

You are totally screwing up on how to properly exploit the gaming/gambling psychology here by filling these things with trash all the time.

Knowing how they operate i'd say people should stop asking for "epic" container buff.

They'll just nerf normal containers and make it so its 50 supplies and 500 crystals or something like that but leave "epic" ones the same and say they buffed them.

Tankoins were removed from weekly (rare) containers and instead added directly to weekly missions. It's still the same amount, 24 for completing the first set of weekly missions.

I assume they did this so they can give out weekly (rare) containers in more places such as challenges, as a bundle of supplies and crystals, without giving out too many tankoins. Maybe we'll see them handing out rare containers a lot more often.
