1
00:00:16,100 --> 00:00:17,330
Hello tankers!

2
00:00:17,330 --> 00:00:25,700
The Tanki V-LOG is back, fresh and full of
energy after its summer break!

3
00:00:25,700 --> 00:00:27,060
Let’s get cracking!

4
00:00:27,800 --> 00:00:34,580
This Wednesday, yet another update landed
on the Tanki Online servers.

5
00:00:34,590 --> 00:00:37,300
Here’s what it brought with it.

6
00:00:37,300 --> 00:00:44,870
The nicknames of all chat moderators and administrators are now marked with a special icon.

7
00:00:44,870 --> 00:00:51,449
Finding them in chats and getting qualified
help is as easy as ever, while trying to trick

8
00:00:51,449 --> 00:00:56,629
other tankers by impersonating a moderator
is virtually impossible.

9
00:00:56,629 --> 00:01:03,269
Also, based on numerous requests, we’ve
added the option to manually adjust the speed

10
00:01:03,269 --> 00:01:05,649
of the turret rotation camera.

11
00:01:05,980 --> 00:01:13,240
And finally, the most important thing — a
new bunch of tweaks to the game’s balance.

12
00:01:13,250 --> 00:01:20,060
Hulls haven’t undergone many changes: mediums
and heavies got a hefty increase to their

13
00:01:20,060 --> 00:01:21,460
maximum speed.

14
00:01:21,460 --> 00:01:28,640
Things are a lot more interesting with turrets,
with lots of changes happening, particularly

15
00:01:28,640 --> 00:01:29,980
to Freeze.

16
00:01:29,980 --> 00:01:37,080
The turret now slows enemy tanks more effectively
and has more energy to work with before needing

17
00:01:37,090 --> 00:01:38,399
a recharge.

18
00:01:38,399 --> 00:01:44,869
The update has affected supplies as well:
the cooldown time on Repair Kits has been

19
00:01:44,869 --> 00:01:50,820
increased, while mines can be planted more
often than before.

20
00:01:50,820 --> 00:01:59,679
And the last thing: gold boxes are now dropped
not 20, but 30 seconds after the notification,

21
00:01:59,679 --> 00:02:04,919
which means more players will be making it
in time to the drop zone.

22
00:02:04,920 --> 00:02:11,400
More info on the update can be found on the
homepage. The link is in the description.

23
00:02:14,440 --> 00:02:22,720
A couple of weeks ago, our community managers
Max and Nick grabbed a car and went on a journey

24
00:02:22,730 --> 00:02:29,390
through a number of Russian cities, meeting
with local tankers, handing out presents,

25
00:02:29,390 --> 00:02:32,550
and showing a demo of the New Tanki.

26
00:02:32,550 --> 00:02:35,770
How did it all go? Let’s find out!

27
00:02:36,500 --> 00:02:42,920
Tanki Online has just tried out a new way
to meet our players: a road show.

28
00:02:42,930 --> 00:02:50,240
5 days, 5 cities, hundreds of tankers and
lots, LOTS of great moments.

29
00:02:50,240 --> 00:02:52,460
More on that, in our report.

30
00:02:52,460 --> 00:03:00,060
A bit of imagination and vinyl transformed
an ordinary saloon into the Hornet M3.

31
00:03:00,060 --> 00:03:04,840
Its crew are our community managers Nick and
Max.

32
00:03:04,840 --> 00:03:08,580
Wrapping the car in Tanki stickers took us
a whole day.

33
00:03:08,580 --> 00:03:14,360
Something like that is usually done by professionals,
but we decided to do it ourselves.

34
00:03:14,360 --> 00:03:20,200
It was really windy. We were about to give
up and just keep the logo on the hood. But

35
00:03:20,210 --> 00:03:22,060
in the end, we managed.

36
00:03:22,060 --> 00:03:27,290
The car’s interior was stuffed with things: souvenirs, video equipment, a

37
00:03:27,290 --> 00:03:33,790
PC to show the demo of the New Tanki, a folding
table and a chair… not to mention our personal

38
00:03:33,790 --> 00:03:34,920
belongings.

39
00:03:34,920 --> 00:03:41,370
All this effort is to prepare for the road
show — a massive car journey to meet with

40
00:03:41,370 --> 00:03:44,150
tankers all over the country.

41
00:03:44,150 --> 00:03:46,200
And it’s time to start!

42
00:03:46,200 --> 00:03:52,960
The road our guys took to Chelyabinsk would
be a great tour for any tanker, as here you

43
00:03:52,960 --> 00:03:57,620
can see several towns that gave their names
to Tanki maps.

44
00:03:57,620 --> 00:04:03,680
Here’s a riddle for you: red town, blue
village and a factory in the middle…

45
00:04:03,680 --> 00:04:04,460
Kungur!

46
00:04:05,380 --> 00:04:13,280
The plan was simple: visit 5 Russian cities
in 5 days — cities Tanki had never been

47
00:04:13,290 --> 00:04:14,120
to before.

48
00:04:14,120 --> 00:04:19,940
That’s why we decided to skip
Yekaterinburg — TO has already been there.

49
00:04:20,920 --> 00:04:24,940
This is where the border lies between Europe
and Asia.

50
00:04:25,300 --> 00:04:31,120
Despite the weather, the Chelyabinsk meet-up
attracted more than 200 visitors.

51
00:04:31,120 --> 00:04:35,140
They were the first to welcome our community
managers.

52
00:04:35,140 --> 00:04:42,220
Local tankers were shown a demo of the new
Tanki. Players asked many questions about

53
00:04:42,230 --> 00:04:49,240
Tanki’s present and future, and even answered
some questions themselves about the game’s history.

54
00:04:49,240 --> 00:04:57,000
The topmost experts with T-shirts, badges,
and a 100 000 crystals each!

55
00:04:57,620 --> 00:05:01,140
We honestly didn’t expect SO MANY players
to come.

56
00:05:01,150 --> 00:05:06,220
During the meet-up in Chelyabinsk I thought
I was going to lose my voice.

57
00:05:06,220 --> 00:05:10,700
In the end, me and my vocal cords managed
to survive all 5 meetings.

58
00:05:11,050 --> 00:05:14,290
A quick nap and back on the road.

59
00:05:14,290 --> 00:05:18,490
The journey to the next city was full of truly
staggering landscapes.

60
00:05:23,160 --> 00:05:28,720
In Ufa, Tanki Online handed out presents,
and got some too!

61
00:05:28,720 --> 00:05:34,420
The current Miss TO and her brother presented
a Tanki flag to Max and Nick.

62
00:05:40,660 --> 00:05:43,400
Going from to Samara wasn’t easy.

63
00:05:43,400 --> 00:05:50,750
Fast and nimble Hornet M3 was fighting its
way through loaded trucks and road repairs.

64
00:05:50,750 --> 00:05:55,290
In the end it was worth it — the weather
in Samara was excellent.

65
00:05:56,220 --> 00:05:59,010
Samara is the midpoint of our journey.

66
00:05:59,010 --> 00:06:04,010
Two more cities lie ahead, but first we’ll
meet some local tankers!

67
00:06:05,180 --> 00:06:12,160
Lots of well-known tankers came to the meet-ups,
including members of the Chaos clan.

68
00:06:12,160 --> 00:06:17,639
But even they didn’t know the answers to
the trickiest questions on Tanki history.

69
00:06:17,639 --> 00:06:21,030
The fourth day on the road was the longest.

70
00:06:21,030 --> 00:06:29,630
800 kilometers to Nizhny Novgorod took about
9 hours, but again, it was worth the effort.

71
00:06:29,630 --> 00:06:36,000
One of the famous Russian Tanki youtubers,
Berik, traveled a thousand kilometers from

72
00:06:36,000 --> 00:06:39,580
Belarussia just to take part in the meet up!

73
00:06:39,580 --> 00:06:45,980
This kind of an event is an awesome chance
to meet Tanki devs in real life, win some

74
00:06:45,980 --> 00:06:48,260
prizes and learn some new stuff.

75
00:06:48,840 --> 00:06:54,120
He was accompanied by another famous local
letsplayer, Zheka Mix.

76
00:06:55,310 --> 00:07:02,060
These outdoor meetings are awesome. Many questions
got answered. I’m already waiting for the

77
00:07:02,060 --> 00:07:03,880
next event like this one.

78
00:07:04,680 --> 00:07:08,300
The last city on the trip was Kazan.

79
00:07:08,300 --> 00:07:15,220
The local meet-up attracted a record number
of tankers — more than 250.

80
00:07:15,220 --> 00:07:19,360
Kazan was a real surprise with so many pretty
ladies.

81
00:07:19,370 --> 00:07:26,250
The event was also attended by moderators
Evgeniy and Regina, who are husband and wife.

82
00:07:29,440 --> 00:07:36,240
Local tankers also turned out to be the greatest
experts on Tanki history.

83
00:07:36,240 --> 00:07:40,710
The atmosphere was so warm that tankers didn’t
want to leave.

84
00:07:40,710 --> 00:07:43,410
The meeting went on till the very evening.

85
00:07:44,820 --> 00:07:50,740
This Tanki Road Show was just the first test
for a new way of meeting and communicating

86
00:07:50,740 --> 00:07:51,960
with players.

87
00:07:51,960 --> 00:07:58,420
We collected all the feedback possible, and
paid attention to both good and bad points,

88
00:07:58,430 --> 00:08:01,780
so that the next event of this sort is even
better.

89
00:08:01,780 --> 00:08:10,340
In 5 days, Max and Nick covered more than
3500 kilometers, often sleeping on the go,

90
00:08:10,340 --> 00:08:12,420
recovering for the next meet-up.

91
00:08:12,420 --> 00:08:19,760
Waking up at 5-6 am, long road to the next
city, meet-up, hotel, and exactly the same

92
00:08:19,770 --> 00:08:21,550
sequence on the next day.

93
00:08:21,550 --> 00:08:27,540
But talking to our players gave us a huge
boost of positive energy, that’s for sure.

94
00:08:47,160 --> 00:08:48,300
By the way!

95
00:08:48,300 --> 00:08:53,780
Lately, some rumors about the future of Tanki
started appearing in the community, especially

96
00:08:53,790 --> 00:08:59,090
about whether it will be possible to move
your account from the current Tanki to the

97
00:08:59,090 --> 00:09:00,880
new version of the game.

98
00:09:00,889 --> 00:09:07,399
Guys, please understand that rumors tend to
become distorted as they pass on from one

99
00:09:07,399 --> 00:09:09,339
person to the next.

100
00:09:09,340 --> 00:09:15,840
Over time, the original message ends up changing
to something entirely different.

101
00:09:15,850 --> 00:09:24,369
The only information sources you can rely
on 100% are Tanki V-LOGs, news on the homepage,

102
00:09:24,369 --> 00:09:27,169
and forum posts by the developers.

103
00:09:27,169 --> 00:09:33,989
Rest assured, that once we get precise, final
info, you’ll be the first to get it.

104
00:09:37,520 --> 00:09:40,020
Welcome for eSports news!

105
00:09:40,029 --> 00:09:47,420
The group stage for Star Series Season 4 is
about to wrap up. Now, let’s analyze the

106
00:09:47,420 --> 00:09:50,129
current state of the league.

107
00:09:50,129 --> 00:09:56,319
With 2 weeks till the end of the group stage,
we already have 4 solid finalists who will

108
00:09:56,319 --> 00:09:58,720
fight for the prize pool.

109
00:09:58,720 --> 00:10:01,600
In leading position, we have Epic Guards,

110
00:10:01,600 --> 00:10:05,840
who have been performing insanely well this season.

111
00:10:05,850 --> 00:10:13,639
All In, Arcade and A&D, who currently occupy
second, third and fourth places respectively,

112
00:10:13,639 --> 00:10:16,309
will be trying to catch up with Epics.

113
00:10:16,309 --> 00:10:21,720
But there’s a lot ahead — the teams are
to determine from which positions they’ll

114
00:10:21,720 --> 00:10:26,980
be entering the finals, and who will face
whom in the play-offs.

115
00:10:26,980 --> 00:10:30,840
Unfortunately, it’s not all good news this
week.

116
00:10:30,840 --> 00:10:34,460
Alert announced they are shutting down.

117
00:10:34,470 --> 00:10:40,220
The team will get a technical defeat of 0:3
in all future matches.

118
00:10:40,220 --> 00:10:42,440
That’s all for now, goodbye!

119
00:10:45,040 --> 00:10:51,420
While we are on the topic of esports, you’ll
be thrilled to hear that a new tournament

120
00:10:51,420 --> 00:10:53,610
is starting in Tanki.

121
00:10:53,610 --> 00:10:55,960
It is called Hardstyle.

122
00:10:55,960 --> 00:11:05,020
It marks the return of good old Hard format:
any turret, any hull, any paint and lots...

123
00:11:05,029 --> 00:11:06,820
LOTS of supplies…

124
00:11:06,820 --> 00:11:09,100
This will be a massacre!

125
00:11:09,100 --> 00:11:12,160
32 teams will be taking part.

126
00:11:12,160 --> 00:11:15,660
The tournament starts on the 4th of July.

127
00:11:15,660 --> 00:11:18,060
All the info is on the homepage.

128
00:11:27,680 --> 00:11:36,000
It’s been 4 weeks since the last V-LOG,
which means we have 4 winners and 4 excellent

129
00:11:36,009 --> 00:11:37,529
action clips.

130
00:11:37,529 --> 00:11:39,329
And here is the best of them!

131
00:12:05,680 --> 00:12:07,519
That’s it for today, tankers!

134
00:12:21,600 --> 00:12:23,600
See you in 7 days![]
