Patch Update #752 - Released 16th February 2024

 

• Added a new Vulcan augment to Epic Containers — «Magnetic Band».

  • (Note) Critical damage applies the «EMP» status effect to the enemy tank.

• Changed the way you get stars for battles

  • Now the maximum number of stars you can get per battle depends on battle duration.

    • (Note) A battle should last at least 11 minutes for the TOP-1 player to get 3 stars. If a battle lasts less than 3 minutes, players don’t receive stars at all.

  • For battles that are longer than 13 minutes, i.e. special mode battles, the maximum number of stars is not limited to 3.

    • (Note) For a battle that lasts 30 minutes, the TOP-1 player may get 8 stars.

• Entering a matchmaking battle with the «Quick battle» button gives you an extra star.

  • (Note) Thus you may get a total of 4 stars per battle, or 8 if you have Premium Pass.

• Added a number showing your chance to get the item in the list of container rewards.

  • (Note) Chances are different for each player because they depend on how many of other items available from this container you already have.

• Fixed the bug that crashed the game client when you click the Missions tab once a battle finishes.

• Fixed the bug that crashed the game client when you redeem certain promocodes.

• Fixed the bug that caused your tank’s camera to stay at the place your tank was destroyed and your tank not respawning.

• Fixed how the shot geometry works when you use Shaft’s sniping mode.

  • (Note) The geometry has become rougher, but it saves memory significantly.

• Changed mission rewards

  • For Daily Supermission — 3 tankoins

  • For Daily Encore mission — 1 star

  • Player doesn’t receive rewards for completing Weekly missions anymore

  • For Weekly Supermission — 3 tankoins (instead of 24)

  • For Weekly Encore supermission — 1 Rare Key (instead of 1 Epic Key)

  • For Weekly Encore missions — 1 Common Key

  • Lifeguard for Viking

• Increased parameters of all hulls and turrets in modifications from Mk2 to Mk7:

  • The difference between the Mk7 and the MkMAX modifications has been halved

  • The changes affected the way Gear Score is counted. Now Mk7 modification gives you 2300 points instead of 2100

  • (Note) This change should reduce the «difficulty» of the game for owners of Mk7 modifications, who have not yet had time to upgrade them, but have already faced Legends in battles

Hmm, this makes me wonder whether its even worth the time to open the missions tab and claim these anymore.

[Gabku 194]

Nice! No reason to log in daily anymore! Doing missions is worthless now, thanks Tanki!

Note that, u get 3 tk a day for the basic dailies supermission, so 7 days, thats 21, that comes back to 24 in total with the weekly mission, effectively you are less forced to play certain modes to get tk now with a smaller loss.

well, I mostly completed the missions for the epic key and stars, both of which have been reduced quite a bit (if I understand the update correctly).
But yeah, I guess for tankoins it is a bit more convenient

I mean, why not let him cope :trolldespair:

Also, time to see all the star speedrunners cope too, guess challenge accepted will become a bit more p2w now. Just ever so slightly.

• Changed the maximum number of players for the following maps in matchmaking:

  • Chernushka from 16 to 14

This map needs more players tbh and a reworked ASL placement.

Yeah, the key nerf itself, I'll have to double check, not nice to see a reduction in items gained.

Chernuska ASL is a throw of a dice, where if the defenders team is somewhat decent or has a miner it's an impossible task to deliver flags.
Now that miner augments will become more common (and mammoth overdrive slower to load), it will become even worse.

I am star speedrunner. Though I speedrun the Passes. Now I just won't buy them. Heard me @Opex-Rah? I won't be buying them now!! nobody is going to buy Premium trust me this will result in more players just not playing at all.

this map taught me to leave the battle so fast i get soft-locked. this map needs to be removed from existence

Yeah... We won't..... huffing copium aren't we?

_{(you're not ready for 1 common key as the new reward instead of mono paints)}

i didnt get that MK7 HALVED update.

[Fischer 159]

more P2W updates than last time

[Fischer 159]

more dissapointed than last time...

basically, it's buffing lower modifications stats, so that low end people have a slightly better gear set when facing endgame players

[M.C.L.A.R.E.N 37]

Promocode doesn't work, it gives an error, you know, 24 hours?

[Dopamine 2,161]

@HydroXes Please use english only in your replies.

[ShadowBreath 20]

Damn, imagine wasting so many hours grinding out a phoenix augment that only you have and then it gets nerfed a few days later 

Also...

[DSSJKJK 18]

When can they repair the bug of gauss and magnum? 

[sza 138]

Time to crush Assault Mode.

They did AgentSix dirty

[Mihoyo 52]

Whenever I think this is the worst update, they always use the next update to prove that I am wrong.

[TheDetective 20]

the worst part about this update is the phoenix nerf and that we don't get as many containers anymore. (which really sucks). but everything else seems good

This sounds terrible, but it's so good. Now you can gain tankoins just by completing daily missions, while until now a casual player could never finish all weekly missions.
The total amount of tankoins is unchanged, and I don't think the container count was changed either? I'm not counting encore missions, they don't exist to me.
Weekly missions are a joke now tho.

So new meta is clicking quick battle, finding a 80% finished battle, getting top3, taking 8 stars and repeat.

[Akame 4,577]

The pheonix nerf is hardly much, why r people even complaining about that
I guess yall would prefer that they had changed it and not announced it, because they sure could have with ease and since hardly anyone owns it, by all means, the initial stats they had could have been wrong and unintended for reasoning purposes.

We all know that augments and game items may be subject to change regardless of what they are, and the pheonix augments are no exception to this. It ain't a big deal for what it was, it is still more than busted. And well, at least he has more of an incentive to grind other pheonix augments. 

 

Most of this patch is about getting people to play and commit to games, whilst not speedrunning, but I can see people potentially stalling games now.

Would it be bannable for a player to hold the 7th flag to gain stars from the early set of minutes? Technically is sabotage but people will want stars. Especially for this short 3 week elite pass and adjusted starset.

The problem is that Phoenix augments are suppose to be the Cream of the Crop. Hazel literally said that you're supposed to see the Phoenix Icon in the Leaderboard and go "What the hell is that? This madman actually did it!" Ignoring the fact that average player would have to play for 13 > YEARS < without changing a combo it takes around 130+ legends worth of grinding. After doing that I'd expect to have something OP that I know won't get changed since it's supposed to be beyond endgame tier. 
People called trophies a scam and waste of time after seeing 5 million score. imagine spending literal months of playing without a single break getting an item just to be constantly thinking that it might just become completely useless because some guy with a ponytail decided to do something stupid. All of this is the last thing that would make a person be interested in grinding another phoenix.

On 2/15/2024 at 5:29 PM, Dopamine said:

I dont think this is a fortunate decision.
Players will stall for time which in turn is asking for sabotage charges.
Round duration should be ensured organically via team balance, not artificially via reward restrictions.
I understand the system will never be perfect, but why not at least give 1/3 or 1/2 of the stars for short battles, instead of none.

Buyers still going to be playing ASL. farming  killing F2Ps with ease after teaming up with another OP buyers then after a couple minutes when you can get starts they speedrun the flag capping. It took me 2 seconds to come up with this strategy so it's safe to say others have the same idea too.

tank mod saying L is wild

as for removing country paints i'd like a compensation since I BOUGHT them for tankoins to remove filler from my conts. Pretty sure removing Pay to Play lootbox items for nothing in return is illegal. or let me guess they added a funny line in ToS that allows them to do it legally? pretty scummy either way.
