@Opex-Rah Can we Expect changes to Event mode, Like the on ewe had in corona days?

[Reviced 387]

Tanki not working on 1st of April. Is this a April joke? Can anyone fix it fast I wanna go sleep soon.

[WieLKo-PoLski 347]

As expected, another Fool Day event and another Hopper Festival. Guess imma create a petition to rename that event from "Fool Days" to "Hopper Festival", unless someone else will be faster or did it already, which I doubt. I'm pretty busy in my real life and may not have time to do it.

Why exactly this event must be with those jumping thingies? Why exactly the only event where April Fools Gold Boxes drop, which are way more valuable than regular Gold Boxes (that’s actually debatable because of the prizes it offers [Monster kill and overdrive fully recharged], which are randomly selected) when we can get something more than just 1000 crystals?! What's so unattractive about rest of the events that there can't be hopper domination or turned ON overdrive kept?

Just like it was year ago and 2 years ago (who am I kidding, many more times), hoppers taking almost every April Fools Gold Box and teaming (if 1 tanker attack them, all attack you). Literally few or at least that one hopper jumping for AF Gold Box in over 90% cases. Luckily I was able to catch few Gold Boxes without it, even 50k crystals one with small help of hopper boi (if you read this, hope you caught at least one 50k crystal Gold Box as compensation for such bad luck). I’ve posted that in Gold Box topic in this forum and Discord servers.

If you really thought that turning off Nuclear Energies and giving everyone Salyut grenade would solve the issue, then you were WRONG. Even the Overdrives nerf didn’t do anything about.

1. Nuclear energies being turned OFF didn't solve any problem with those jumping poops. Yeah, it's better that they don't spam with it, BUT you've completely forgot that Overdrives are ON (again) and they could just drive with their OD's ready and use it until that Fools Day Gold Box drop. So it did almost nothing. Not much. Everywhere hoppers waiting for that special Gold Box
2. Salyut grenades didn't change situation at all. As I said year ago when there were introduced to special mode, they don't help at all because those hop***s (sorry, but that word itself make me sick) take that GB faster then that grenade explodes + fact that many of them had Lifeguards or Stun immunity, which don’t stop them from taking those Golds at all.  They were more useful to kill enemies rather than stop those jumping you know what. That was the actual point of that grenade? I think not.

Is it really that hard to just turn off Overdrives for that "Randomizer" special mode? Or at least make Fool Days longer and give both "Randomizer" and "Legendary Randomizer" where overdrive were turned ON in 1st one and turned OFF in 2nd one just like it was in 2023?! Are you really that afraid of comments how Dictators dominate each Gold Box hunt and others barely have any chances? And stop with these “improvements,” like the ones mentioned above or for example turning off Augments, Drones, Modules, Grenades instead of turning those overdrives off in next years, cause that won’t solve anything.

You didn’t learn anything from mistakes in previous years and even not much from Reviced’s opinion with as many as 59 reactions under Fool Days 2025 topic. Also few YT-Bers even recorded videos about the situation, hope you also watch it if you didn’t.

I have a really good idea of the special mode that might actually solve those problems: just make a special mode where everyone has equipped the same hull, for example Hornet or Viking. By that there won’t be any issues regarding hop***s, no issues when it comes to Dictators. Pure fight for Gold Boxes that are more equal and require to use some brain to try catch them (I mean think of smart way to get it before someone else get it). By that I’m sure more people will enjoy Fool Days events in Tanki than in last 3-4 years. Or even make Hop**r and Railgun special mode, where everyone has it and also have more equal changes. Am I asking for too much?

If that’s too problematic, just rename this event „Hopper Festival” and let us openely know what you think of April Foo... I mean Hop***r festival and how much it should stay as it is.

 Seems a certain era in this game has definitely come to an end. R.I.P Fool Day [*]

Its not even worth to keep trying anymore. Either its not in their plan to change it yet or they don't have that much time to change it or they don't see a reason to change it. Anyways they doing it on purpose. Nobody can't even respond to us (tbh I would like to see a Hazel's respond to this event). I tried to get attention with others from Tanki. Its not possible unless they cared enough. Looking back to my post last year on Fool Days 2025 they proved I was too optimistic when I was hoping for a change atleast after a year and theres nothing that can be done  They will never deliver a good Fool Days anymore with options and I don't trust them anymore. Like literally whole community was asking for a change in this mode in the past 3 years. Thinking about it why are they so strict with everything and can't make a change while its happening? They fix it if its broken or abused and when Hopper is abused in the mode and they do nothing about it it means they exactly wanted it like this. From now on Im just waiting on updates they release and see if Im gonna like it or not but Im not playing it actively. I bet theres gonna be 5k contracts again in the upcoming Space minigame so not worth to do anything F2P and no reason to play more. Ofc skin on Energy will be the stupid bad looking ball reused on every single currency gold box.

People over here  complain about Hoppers taking golds easily as if they don't have that hull in their own garage. 

I can understand the emotion behind the OG style of parkouring or fighting and taking golds but if you still cry about Hoppers stealing gold in 2026 it's just terrible coping mechanism.
The simple logic is either use hopper and actually earn some golds or sit back in map and cry over nothing. 

I don't use hopper and don't like playing that hull due to low health, but I still used it for the gold hunting event and got about 30 days premium, 1.1m crystals. I wouldn't earn all this if I sat and cried how strong hopper is.

If nuclear energy were switched on it would make this event even more of a hell. Since there are players out here saving 600-1000 nuclears for April fools. So just be happy that did not happen. Because it seems like players just want to complain and not grind for things.

I hear you. They learnt from last year, people used to nuke for golds.

But I'm kinda tired of seeing augments on. You see the usual set of meta gaming you don't want to see in a mode a lotta people wanna have fun in.

April fools coulda forced everyones tank into Extreme lightweight lowkey.

Though it is what it is. Nonetheless people always make a nice profit this event to prepare for tanki bday. All round has been a great event for a lotta people even if they complain.

Arms race map choice is very questionable though.

as for the supergold special mode...

DO NOT FALL FOR THE HOPPER & DICTATOR PROPAGANDA. THEY ARE LYING TO YOU. TITAN IS THE BEST HULL FOR CATCHING GOLDS. PRAISE TITAN.

What about the new Turret in Arms Race?

I think it is amazing.

And it is better that no one has any protection for it!

Feel free to check my profile, I have it, but don’t use it... because I CAN. That’s how choice works.

I'm not some hypocrite who complains about hop***s and plays them at the same time. Haven’t touched those floating  for like... I don’t know, + - 3 or 4 years. And I’m proud of it. And nah bro, way more options exists. For example 3. Keep trying to catch April Fools Gold Boxes with something else than that hull. 4. Not play that mode at all and save time 5. Leave game. I Have chosen the 3rd option and caught some April Fools Gold Boxes. Feel free to check "Gold Boxes!" topic in this forum and Discord server of TO in #tanki-images channel. Not much, but once again, I’m pretty busy in my real life and have better things to do and spend time on.

As I said, it's better they don't spam with it, but it still didn't change the fact that hop***s were taking over 90% April Fools Gold Boxes because of a simple fact that they were "saving" OverDrives (not using for some time) until AF Gold Box dropped. And that didn't change much. Still that's better, but not enough. I know, I ask for too much, no need to tell me that.

"A balanced game is a state of fairness and strategic variety where no single strategy, character, or item dominates, ensuring that all options are viable and victory depends on skill rather than overpowered choices. It maintains an equilibrium between player challenge and skill, preventing frustration while allowing for diverse"

What you said was definitely one of the worst things that has been said to defend the game state. Players don't "cry" because they don't take golds, they "cry" because of hoppers existinece which is two different things that you had them mixed up. April fools and golds events exist way before Hopper appered late 2020 and not every player was able to farm and take golds just like now, but suprisingly such "crying" was not there before.

A bronze ranked player will lose becuase of his poor skills, therefore he won't blame the game. However, if that same bronze player lost becuase of unfair matchups, he will rightfully so blame the game for his lose.

Forcing an option to take golds is the opposite of balance. Players don't mind not taking golds, I don't think we will ever see a player criticize by saying: the event is bad because I did not take x number of golds.

if i was that kind of person, i'd say that the modern events require a whole lot of crystals to even get something decent. but because i'm still a nub with 3 mk7-0 setups and a few 30% prots, personally i wouldn't say that.

@Baal the logic behind everything is simple:

me like box.

hopper od designed to take much box.

me hate hopper.
