00:00:15,560 --> 00:00:16,600
Hello Tankers!

2
00:00:16,620 --> 00:00:19,80
In today’s episode, 
we’ll be giving you some updates

3
00:00:19,80 --> 00:00:21,459
on the situation with DM tournaments.

4
00:00:21,460 --> 00:00:25,180
We’ll also be telling you more
about the separation of paints in TO

5
00:00:25,180 --> 00:00:27,40
and announcing a football event.

6
00:00:28,620 --> 00:00:32,400
DM tournaments are picking up speed,
and if you’re a Generalissimo

7
00:00:32,400 --> 00:00:35,660
you might have already had the chance 
to test this feature.

8
00:00:35,940 --> 00:00:40,379
Battles are played on a daily basis,
and every day the number of battles is increasing

9
00:00:40,380 --> 00:00:43,940
with an average participation 
of 900 players per round.

10
00:00:44,760 --> 00:00:46,960
Please understand that this rank limitation

11
00:00:46,960 --> 00:00:50,740
is NOT meant as a discrimination against lower ranks.

12
00:00:50,750 --> 00:00:55,70
We want to limit the number of participants
because it makes testing more manageable.

13
00:00:55,70 --> 00:00:58,90
Also, to those of you 
who are getting kicked out of the tournament

14
00:00:58,90 --> 00:01:01,400
during the battle creation screen, don’t worry!

15
00:01:01,400 --> 00:01:05,280
We are aware of the problem,
and we are working on fixing it.

16
00:01:05,560 --> 00:01:10,380
As we make progress with resolving the issue
of players being unable to join battles

17
00:01:10,390 --> 00:01:13,750
we will expand the bracket of ranks 
that can join the tournament.

18
00:01:14,60 --> 00:01:17,60
We’re still deciding on the minimum rank
that players will need

19
00:01:17,70 --> 00:01:19,360
to participate in the DM tournaments.

20
00:01:19,360 --> 00:01:23,380
But don’t worry. We promise you that 
the majority of TankiOnline players

21
00:01:23,380 --> 00:01:25,179
will be able to participate.

22
00:01:25,180 --> 00:01:28,800
We also need to decide 
on the size of each rank group.

23
00:01:29,120 --> 00:01:31,840
For now, the plan is for tankers in DM tournaments

24
00:01:31,840 --> 00:01:35,80
to only battle against players with their same rank.

25
00:01:35,90 --> 00:01:39,740
But, if we see that this restriction is making it hard 
to find enough players for a tournament,

26
00:01:39,740 --> 00:01:42,240
we ll consider having a wider rank bracket.

27
00:01:42,440 --> 00:01:46,380
Now that the battles have started,
the leaderboard is starting to take shape.

28
00:01:46,380 --> 00:01:51,420
At this point in time, the ranking leader
has already passed the 2600 points mark

29
00:01:51,420 --> 00:01:55,200
having started with a base score of 1500 points.

30
00:01:57,820 --> 00:02:02,479
It’s been several weeks, since we announced
the separation of paints from their resistances.

31
00:02:02,479 --> 00:02:06,298
Lots of rumors have been flying,
but in the meantime, we’ve been hard at work

32
00:02:06,300 --> 00:02:10,000
and now we’re ready to give you
a progress report about this update.

33
00:02:10,680 --> 00:02:13,380
We’re actually already in the testing stage.

34
00:02:13,380 --> 00:02:17,380
For now it’s a closed test,
and only the testers are involved in this process.

35
00:02:17,700 --> 00:02:22,79
Later on, when it’s time to do a load test,
you will all be able to join in the testing...

36
00:02:22,80 --> 00:02:25,260
well… depending on how many players 
will fit the server.

37
00:02:25,600 --> 00:02:30,400
Some time ago, we told you how enemy resistances
would be displayed in the TAB menu.

38
00:02:30,400 --> 00:02:33,160
However, this information wasn’t fitting properly

39
00:02:33,160 --> 00:02:36,560
so we decided to come up 
with a different way of displaying it.

40
00:02:36,980 --> 00:02:40,859
We’re adding a new menu
that will be accessed by pressing the R button.

41
00:02:40,860 --> 00:02:45,780
It will show you a player s resistances,
as well as his turret and hull upgrade levels.

42
00:02:45,780 --> 00:02:49,660
This will make it easier to understand
what kind of opponent you are dealing with.

43
00:02:52,470 --> 00:02:55,730
The TX tournament 
among the AlternativaPlatform employees

44
00:02:55,730 --> 00:02:59,230
has come to an end, 
and it turned out to be very exciting.

45
00:02:59,230 --> 00:03:01,149
We had 32 people participating

46
00:03:01,150 --> 00:03:03,950
some of whom were playing the game for the first time.

47
00:03:24,420 --> 00:03:25,920
So who won?

48
00:03:25,930 --> 00:03:28,810
Having passed 
every stage of the tournament undefeated

49
00:03:28,820 --> 00:03:31,840
including the finals played on the “Sandbox” map

50
00:03:31,840 --> 00:03:35,800
the team that took home the trophy was...
Team “Keyboard Smasher”

51
00:03:35,800 --> 00:03:40,500
with our programmers Aleksey and Vitaly,
and our designers Mihail and Evgeniy.

52
00:03:40,500 --> 00:03:42,220
Congratulations!

53
00:03:44,780 --> 00:03:50,160
This year’s EURO 2016 football cup
is the most discussed event of the summer.

54
00:03:50,170 --> 00:03:53,119
The first matches of the quarterfinals 
have already started,

55
00:03:53,120 --> 00:03:55,560
and we’ve prepared something special for the event!

56
00:03:55,780 --> 00:03:59,900
As the semi-finals kick off,
you will be able to join in the Football Frenzy

57
00:03:59,900 --> 00:04:04,380
by purchasing one of four paints 
in support of the semi-finalists.

58
00:04:04,680 --> 00:04:08,340
Of course, the paints will only be available
for a limited amount of time

59
00:04:08,340 --> 00:04:14,980
BUT during that period, they’ll be giving your tank
15% protection from all turrets and mines.

60
00:04:15,120 --> 00:04:16,340
And there’s more!

61
00:04:16,500 --> 00:04:21,399
If the team you’re supporting, places 3rd or 4th,
you will be rewarded with supplies...

62
00:04:21,420 --> 00:04:26,660
If they place second, you will get 1 day of premium,
as well as 25 units of each supply...

63
00:04:26,810 --> 00:04:30,650
And, if you’ve been backing the team
who wins the EURO 2016

64
00:04:30,650 --> 00:04:35,830
you will receive 20k crystals,
 3 days of premium, and also supplies!

65
00:04:36,260 --> 00:04:39,700
The event is scheduled to start next week.
Don’t miss it!

66
00:04:42,000 --> 00:04:43,360
Video of the week.

67
00:04:43,360 --> 00:04:46,870
Last week, we asked you to send us a video
with a football theme

68
00:04:46,870 --> 00:04:50,530
— “I am playing in the stadium”. 
Let’s watch the best video.

69
00:05:13,840 --> 00:05:18,000
The theme for next week’s video is...
“I am playing on the Rio map”.

70
00:05:18,000 --> 00:05:21,560
Make sure it’s a normal battle, not parkour.

71
00:05:23,880 --> 00:05:25,80
That’s it folks!

72
00:05:25,80 --> 00:05:27,979
Make sure you keep an eye on DM tournaments…

73
00:05:27,980 --> 00:05:32,300
and participate the EURO 2016 Football Frenzy event.

74
00:05:32,540 --> 00:05:33,200
Good Bye![]
