[Only_Event 254]

Still not Tanki classic news? At this point I lost hope and I think it got cancelled 

[Hypervenom 12]

Where’s promocode for 1-day premium?

Once again no information regarding Tanki Classic?! You're literally destroying whole hype for that game (even though game was/is overhyped). 

What was even the point of releasing information about that thing, when you literally avoid answering people's questions, requests about it etc.?! What was the point of even introducing "Tanki Classic Diary" when you haven't done it for 3 V-LOGs?! You think people will wait 10 V-LOGs or X times more for it?!

@Opex-RahDid something go wrong when working on that Tanki Classic?! Have you changed your mind about it and decide to secretly cancel it?! Why that's another V-LOG without information about it?! When EXACTLY can we expect next Tanki Classic information?! Is it really that hard to simply tell what went wrong and if it might affect the start date of Tanki Classic Early Access and global launch of it?! I'm pretty sure many would understand situation and wait longer if you tell us what is going on with it, if any problems appeared during coding, if something broke down etc. Do you even read comments under V-LOGs?

It's way better to tell us what is happening with Tanki Classic than not tell anything at all .

By now I see clearly someone's words didn't age well... 

If not, then prove it by telling us what is going on, why there's another V-LOG without any information regarding Tanki Classic and about questions above. You actually want to create this game or can we confidently call it Tanki Failassic?! Because that's the direction it's heading in!

well then the legal clause will force them to refund all the TANKOINS (nuh uh no real money!!!!!)  

they also have around 18 months or whatever before they're forced to refund if nothing happens. so you have a long long time lol.

and im pretty sure you'd have to submit a refund request and not just automatically get tankoins so they're really doing everything in their power to dodge any potential refund

Oh and BTW, do you even check the V-LOGs before you publish them? Because that 1st Tank from "Spy Tank" Contest in last V-LOG wasn't Wasp Smoky in Rust Paint. It was Hunter Twins in Mary paint.  If you'd look closer to that, you'd notice more white paint, which is not visible on Rust paint at all (On Rust paint there's more gray and dark red or something like that). If that actually would be that Wasp Smoky in Rust paint, I wouldn't be there and many other people in that draw (correctly guessed 1st Spy Tank was Twins Hunter Mary). Altough rest of tanks are correctly said, still that 1st one makes no sense and create big confusion. Be more careful next time!

I want to clarify something about TC;

Game companies always wants to play it safe; they don't invest in projects that won't make money, and they don't take risks unless there's demand. So it's very likely that development began after the TC early access bundle(s) sales ended.

Delays are common in the gaming industry, but what I'm curious about is this:

Looking at what they've shown us, there's almost nothing “classic” in Tanki Classic, so why  y'all so excited for it?

Excitement about that game somehow still exists, because there are some parts of old tanki, even though many things aren't "classic". Many people missed "old tanki" and some of them got hyped because of the name of that project - "Tanki Classic" and that it will be some kind of old tanki(debatable).

I even mentioned what Hazel himself has written under the topic of Tanki Classic Early Access + fact they extended it by one more month.

Quote

On the very first day, we reached the level of support needed to lift the restrictions on the project’s development.

Quote

The number of players we have now isn’t just enough for a closed test — it’s enough for a large-scale closed test.

After all these years, our dream of bringing back those very tanks has never felt more real.

I think we can clearly say that thing was a cash-grab action, because then they told about "alterations"/augments matched to skins, voting which another turret to add to Tanki Classic between Striker and Gauss and many things that actually weren't in old Tanki back then. If they announce those things BEFORE they gave offers to gain early access for TC, I'm sure above 70% of that people wouldn't even buy it at all. And it could make TC be cancelled quicker.

"Delays are common in the gaming industry..." Yes, but don't you think it should be better to tell players that it will be delayed and reasons like "continue to work out the details to make sure at early access there won't be so much problems." than not tell anything and just "figure it out by yourselves"? For example, the producers of GTA VI officialy announced their game will be delayed. That's a good example of pretty good contact with players. Here? There's barely any contact. No specifics. Just hopeless generalities and some "Figure it out yourselves, if you don't understand, that's your problem!". As I've mentioned above "It's way better to tell us what is happening with Tanki Classic than not tell anything at all ."

I guess demand for that Tanki Classic went so low it might not be released at all since "they don't take risks". Let's wait for December's V-LOG.

Thank you so much tankionline developers for this amazing put together video!

or it can be released and canceled later on like what happened to TX unless the developers forgot that lesson....

and i doubt there'll be anything about classic in December given that they will talk about festive season, eSports finals and probably the medic grenade and maybe another remastered map, so better wait till 2026

When Tanki Classic was first announced, Hazel advertised it as a “dream version of Tanki Online” to the players.Then he started talking about skin related augments  and overdrives etc., and many players lost hope before the game was even released.

People who are still  eagerly awaiting it, i hope the developers won't fail meeting your expectations.

You're right about that, but ever since Tanki Online started evolving and losing players, the developers haven't been honest with us.

They genuinely don't care what the community thinks or says because they look at the analyses, not what people think.

They ignored the questions, ignored their responsibilities to the players, made decisions without consulting the community, and here we are today.

So, in the current situation, the last thing we can expect is for them to be honest with us. It's painful, but it's the truth.

 

or maybe they just overly antisocial lol

This year 2025 has gone so quick. There's only one month to go.

Absolutely yeah, once I look back at Jan it's like the events unfolded just yesterday but when I remember the details it felt like the year stretched quite good.

when you realise that "5 years ago" refers to 2020 and not to 2015....

[muzamil 146]

it took less time for tanki x development but took more to make all the hd skins and maps of main game.....
years by years, they are adding more skins and augments instead of fixing previous ones (PR skin, no combo for old DC skin for firebird, slugger had same effect as boxer), most of them almost have same mechanics, and just fooling by the names of augments.....
