1 00:00:16,190 --> 00:00:17,650 Hello, tankers! 2 00:00:17,650 --> 00:00:24,540 The Tanki V-LOG is on air, and we’ve got quite a lot to tell you about! (Semyon Kirov,community manager) 3 00:00:24,540 --> 00:00:26,500 In today’s episode… 4 00:00:26,510 --> 00:00:29,050 News from game designers… 5 00:00:29,050 --> 00:00:31,210 News from an analyst… 6 00:00:31,210 --> 00:00:34,140 and a story from a community manager. 7 00:00:34,140 --> 00:00:35,780 Let’s get cracking! 8 00:00:37,600 --> 00:00:43,420 Soon, we’ll make some small but pretty important changes to the game. 9 00:00:43,420 --> 00:00:49,280 Heavy and medium hulls will receive a slight increase in their armor, 10 00:00:49,290 --> 00:00:53,510 while Speed Boost will increase not just the speed of the tank, 11 00:00:53,510 --> 00:00:56,920 but also the speed of the turret’s rotation. 12 00:00:56,920 --> 00:01:01,460 Our game designers will tell us more about these changes! 13 00:01:02,240 --> 00:01:07,520 Recently, we’ve been actively studying info on the use of hulls. 14 00:01:07,530 --> 00:01:12,410 We realized that medium and heavy hulls are not popular enough. 15 00:01:12,410 --> 00:01:15,840 Every second hull bought in the game is Hornet! 16 00:01:15,840 --> 00:01:20,900 Only 5% of total game time is played on heavy hulls. 17 00:01:20,900 --> 00:01:27,480 Due to that, the game is becoming less diverse, the gameplay doesn’t work as it was developed. 18 00:01:27,480 --> 00:01:33,580 So, it was decided to make heavy and medium hulls more in demand, by increasing their armor. (Vladimir Kovtun,game designer) 19 00:01:33,580 --> 00:01:40,160 The amount of extra HP depends on the rank at which a specific modification becomes available. 20 00:01:40,170 --> 00:01:50,150 The increase for medium hulls varies from 5HP on M0, to 15HP on fully micro-upgraded M3. 21 00:01:50,150 --> 00:01:54,280 Heavies get a boost from 10HP to 30HP. 22 00:01:54,290 --> 00:02:00,390 The change feels minor, but it will allow you to survive an extra hit in some situations, 23 00:02:00,390 --> 00:02:02,630 which is important. 24 00:02:02,630 --> 00:02:06,000 Another thing we decided to balance is the Speed Boost. 25 00:02:06,010 --> 00:02:12,890 Based on our data, it’s less popular than DD and DA, while the price is the same. 26 00:02:12,890 --> 00:02:18,900 To make it more competitive, we’ll make it increase not just the speed of a tank but 27 00:02:18,900 --> 00:02:21,870 also the turret’s rotation speed. 28 00:02:21,870 --> 00:02:28,560 Here, it’s important to note that the supply increases the turret’s maximum rotation 29 00:02:28,560 --> 00:02:31,520 speed, not its acceleration. 30 00:02:31,520 --> 00:02:36,980 So players will NOT need to learn how to handle their turrets from scratch. 31 00:02:36,980 --> 00:02:41,720 The goal of this change is to make supply battles even faster, as sometimes a turret (Semyon Strizhak,game designer) 32 00:02:41,720 --> 00:02:43,760 can’t follow an enemy tank on Nitro. 33 00:02:43,760 --> 00:02:46,300 This is also an improvement for heavy hulls. 34 00:02:46,300 --> 00:02:51,000 Increased turret’s rotation speed makes them more capable when a Wasp or a Hornet 35 00:02:51,010 --> 00:02:53,020 tries to go in circles around them, 36 00:02:53,020 --> 00:02:55,220 or they are being Freezed from behind. 37 00:02:55,220 --> 00:03:02,140 Both of these changes are aimed at making Tanki more balanced and diverse, and we do 38 00:03:02,150 --> 00:03:04,050 hope you will enjoy them. 39 00:03:04,050 --> 00:03:05,490 See you in the game! 40 00:03:08,560 --> 00:03:15,300 Soon, the current score multiplier pass will be replaced by 3 brand new ones! 41 00:03:15,300 --> 00:03:17,940 Here’s some more information on that. 42 00:03:17,950 --> 00:03:24,110 We have analyzed the score multiplier pass and understood that it’s not as good as it could be. (Evgeniy Gilmanov,analyst) 43 00:03:24,110 --> 00:03:32,270 Increasing the XP accumulation rate is a very specific feature, not used by all the tankers. 44 00:03:32,270 --> 00:03:39,020 And for those who DO need it, the price is too high, especially if you take into account 45 00:03:39,020 --> 00:03:43,820 the minor increase in experience growth — 30%. 46 00:03:43,820 --> 00:03:53,870 So, in the near future, we’ll remove the existing 30% score multiplier pass costing 12,500 crystals 47 00:03:53,870 --> 00:04:02,740 and will replace it with 3 new ones: a 30% one for 2,500 crystals, a 50% one for 5000, 48 00:04:02,740 --> 00:04:06,800 and a 100% one for 15000. 49 00:04:06,800 --> 00:04:13,480 So, a 30% boost to XP earned will be one fifth of the price, and for roughly the current 50 00:04:13,489 --> 00:04:18,239 price of the existing pass, you’ll get TWICE as much experience! 51 00:04:18,239 --> 00:04:24,970 The change will be appreciated by those who want to rank up faster, or get access to a 52 00:04:24,970 --> 00:04:30,610 specific weapon as soon as possible, for example, in time for a sale. 53 00:04:33,560 --> 00:04:42,020 Last week we told you about funny bugs that come up during the development of the Unity version of Tanki. 54 00:04:42,020 --> 00:04:44,150 We hope you enjoyed it. 55 00:04:44,150 --> 00:04:51,150 Now, finally, it’s time to hear a funny story from us, the community managers. 56 00:04:56,320 --> 00:05:02,080 Once, I received a PM from the mother of a 7-year old kid, who was asking for help. (Mariya Trusevich,community manager) 57 00:05:02,080 --> 00:05:05,290 “Why doesn’t your game save any progress?” she asked. 58 00:05:02,080 --> 00:05:09,190 “Why does my son have to start from the beginning every time?” 59 00:05:09,400 --> 00:05:13,680 We started a long conversation to find out what had actually happened. 60 00:05:13,900 --> 00:05:22,080 “My son is so sad.He had some high rank, major I think,and the last turret he bought was some……Shmaft.” 61 00:05:22,460 --> 00:05:27,630 It turned out that the beginner tanker had registered his first account in the game, 62 00:05:27,630 --> 00:05:31,780 clicked “Remember me” and had been playing like that for ages. 63 00:05:31,780 --> 00:05:37,100 But then, his cache got cleared, or his parents switched to another browser, and when he entered 64 00:05:37,100 --> 00:05:40,300 the game again, he saw the authorisation menu. 65 00:05:40,300 --> 00:05:46,190 He entered his nickname, but STRANGELY, the system said that it was already taken! 66 00:05:46,190 --> 00:05:51,699 So he added a couple of random symbols and created a new account… and he kept doing 67 00:05:51,699 --> 00:05:54,179 that EVERY time he entered the game! 68 00:05:54,180 --> 00:05:58,600 Tutorial, recruit, empty garage… every single time! 69 00:05:58,610 --> 00:06:03,910 We restored his access to the original account and advised to link it to Facebook. 70 00:06:03,910 --> 00:06:08,910 Then we got the last letter from the tanker’s mother, with thanks and best wishes. 71 00:06:08,910 --> 00:06:11,430 And he lived happily ever after :-) 72 00:06:14,700 --> 00:06:17,520 Welcome to esports news, tankers!
