Tanki V-LOG 100

2
00:00:30,920 --> 00:00:31,680
Hello Tankers!

3
00:00:31,680 --> 00:00:32,790
In today’s episode,

4
00:00:32,790 --> 00:00:35,330
we’ll be telling you about the latest update,

5
00:00:35,330 --> 00:00:37,220
and answering some of your hottest questions

6
00:00:37,220 --> 00:00:38,990
from the past few days.

7
00:00:38,990 --> 00:00:41,520
And since it’s the V-LOG’s 100th episode,

8
00:00:41,520 --> 00:00:43,680
we’ll also be giving you a backstage look

9
00:00:43,680 --> 00:00:45,320
at how it all comes together!

10
00:00:46,760 --> 00:00:49,940
Let’s start with some news from the development field.

11
00:00:49,949 --> 00:00:51,470
The automated DM tournaments

12
00:00:51,470 --> 00:00:54,290
are currently in the final stage of development.

13
00:00:54,290 --> 00:00:56,629
Our developers have fixed all of the bugs,

14
00:00:56,629 --> 00:00:58,300
and with the release of the latest update,

15
00:00:58,300 --> 00:01:01,730
they have moved this feature into the final testing stage.

16
00:01:01,730 --> 00:01:04,059
The battles are back in the game, but once again,

17
00:01:04,059 --> 00:01:06,270
they are only open to Generalissimos.

18
00:01:06,270 --> 00:01:08,250
If the update proves stable,

19
00:01:08,250 --> 00:01:10,110
we will gradually open the tournaments

20
00:01:10,110 --> 00:01:12,010
to lower ranks as planned.

21
00:01:13,000 --> 00:01:16,090
The latest update has also introduced the new Shop,

22
00:01:16,090 --> 00:01:18,620
which we’ve already mentioned a number of times.

23
00:01:18,620 --> 00:01:21,070
The new Shop has 3 main purposes:

24
00:01:21,070 --> 00:01:23,470
cleaning up the top panel in the game lobby...

25
00:01:23,470 --> 00:01:25,799
simplifying the purchasing process...

26
00:01:25,799 --> 00:01:28,719
and introducing the option to purchase unique content.

27
00:01:28,940 --> 00:01:31,260
One of the primary changes in the shop’s functionality

28
00:01:31,260 --> 00:01:33,800
is that you now choose the desired package first...

29
00:01:33,810 --> 00:01:35,530
then you choose a payment method.

30
00:01:35,890 --> 00:01:38,480
Another change is that the Shop now has a scrollbar

31
00:01:38,480 --> 00:01:39,580
that makes it much easier

32
00:01:39,580 --> 00:01:41,300
to browse through our products.

33
00:01:41,690 --> 00:01:43,550
For now, the contents of the Shop

34
00:01:43,550 --> 00:01:44,970
have remained unchanged.

35
00:01:44,970 --> 00:01:46,290
There are the usual packages

36
00:01:46,290 --> 00:01:48,690
for crystals and Premium Account time,

37
00:01:48,690 --> 00:01:51,360
but new content including the “Gold” supply,

38
00:01:51,360 --> 00:01:54,250
as well as two out of the eight recently-added paints

39
00:01:54,250 --> 00:01:56,210
will be included in future updates.

40
00:01:59,040 --> 00:02:01,720
Some of the features that have been introduced lately,

41
00:02:01,720 --> 00:02:03,850
have become the subject of much debate,

42
00:02:03,850 --> 00:02:07,000
anger and most importantly, misunderstandings.

43
00:02:07,000 --> 00:02:08,459
You’ve sent us your questions,

44
00:02:08,459 --> 00:02:09,939
and we’re about to give you the answers.

45
00:02:10,440 --> 00:02:14,920

46
00:02:15,360 --> 00:02:18,220
Before the update, the mode was unbalanced.

47
00:02:18,220 --> 00:02:20,340
By using protective paints,

48
00:02:20,340 --> 00:02:22,769
Wasp was basically equal to Hornet…

49
00:02:22,769 --> 00:02:25,060
but with the added advantage of being faster,

50
00:02:25,060 --> 00:02:28,440
more agile, and smaller, which makes it harder to hit.

51
00:02:28,440 --> 00:02:30,060
Now, if you want to benefit

52
00:02:30,069 --> 00:02:32,450
from all the advantages of Wasp,

53
00:02:32,450 --> 00:02:34,080
you will have to accept the fact

54
00:02:34,080 --> 00:02:36,480
that it can be one-shotted by Railgun.

55
00:02:36,680 --> 00:02:38,760

56
00:02:39,000 --> 00:02:40,040
With the split,

57
00:02:40,040 --> 00:02:42,120
paints now have a different kind of value,

58
00:02:42,120 --> 00:02:43,980
and that is their appearance.

59
00:02:43,980 --> 00:02:44,879
Before the update,

60
00:02:44,879 --> 00:02:46,359
the price of a paint was determined

61
00:02:46,359 --> 00:02:48,199
by the kind of protections it offered,

62
00:02:48,200 --> 00:02:50,359
while its appearance didn’t really matter.

63
00:02:50,359 --> 00:02:52,879
Now, paints have become a status symbol.

64
00:02:52,880 --> 00:02:53,860
If you want to stand out,

65
00:02:53,870 --> 00:02:55,999
you’ll have to save up for the Tiger paint.

66
00:02:55,999 --> 00:02:58,119
I would compare paints with watches.

67
00:02:58,120 --> 00:02:59,880
Even a 10 dollar ordinary watch

68
00:02:59,889 --> 00:03:01,269
can show the exact time.

69
00:03:01,269 --> 00:03:03,660
But if you’re wearing a designer watch

70
00:03:03,670 --> 00:03:06,500
worth several thousands of dollars on your wrist,

71
00:03:06,500 --> 00:03:08,560
it will DEFINITELY get you A LOT more attention

72
00:03:08,560 --> 00:03:10,560
than the 10 dollar piece of plastic.

73
00:03:11,040 --> 00:03:13,160

74
00:03:13,170 --> 00:03:14,670

75
00:03:14,920 --> 00:03:18,000
The situation with special paints is the following:

76
00:03:18,000 --> 00:03:20,359
Those who own the “Champion” paint

77
00:03:20,359 --> 00:03:24,049
will receive a +25% resistance module,

78
00:03:24,049 --> 00:03:27,969
the “Silver” paint will get a +20% resistance module,

79
00:03:27,969 --> 00:03:32,079
and the “Bronze” paint will get a +15%
resistance module.

80
00:03:32,079 --> 00:03:34,760
The TOF tournament champions will receive

81
00:03:34,760 --> 00:03:37,220
a +20% resistance module,

82
00:03:37,220 --> 00:03:40,080
and the same goes for the helpers of the month.

83
00:03:40,080 --> 00:03:43,100
These modules will be handed out in the near future.

84
00:03:43,620 --> 00:03:50,080

85
00:03:50,409 --> 00:03:51,889
The answer is simple

86
00:03:51,889 --> 00:03:53,159
it was a programming mistake,

87
00:03:53,159 --> 00:03:55,639
and it will be fixed in an upcoming update.

88
00:03:55,760 --> 00:03:58,800
Both paints and modules will be added to the statistics.

89
00:03:58,809 --> 00:04:00,139
We’re also considering

90
00:04:00,139 --> 00:04:02,119
a set of improvements for this feature.

91
00:04:02,680 --> 00:04:06,620

92
00:04:06,980 --> 00:04:08,660
When we first decided to use

93
00:04:08,660 --> 00:04:11,540
the R key for the stats indicator menu,

94
00:04:11,540 --> 00:04:14,480
we thought one key would be sufficient for this function.

95
00:04:14,489 --> 00:04:16,230
But following the tankers  feedback,

96
00:04:16,230 --> 00:04:18,750
we’ve decided to add the V key,

97
00:04:18,750 --> 00:04:21,070
which will function in the exact same way.

98
00:04:21,070 --> 00:04:23,060
Some tankers also suggested

99
00:04:23,070 --> 00:04:25,560
we make the key an on/off toggle

100
00:04:25,560 --> 00:04:28,070
press it once, it opens up the menu,

101
00:04:28,070 --> 00:04:30,830
press it a second time and it will close the window.

102
00:04:30,980 --> 00:04:33,620
We haven’t made a decision about that yet,

103
00:04:33,620 --> 00:04:35,060
and it might take a while.

104
00:04:35,420 --> 00:04:40,680

105
00:04:40,880 --> 00:04:43,700
The lag issue is a top priority for us,

106
00:04:43,700 --> 00:04:46,080
and we are constantly working on fixing it.

107
00:04:46,080 --> 00:04:48,670
The consequences of last Monday s server crash

108
00:04:48,670 --> 00:04:50,140
have finally been eliminated.

109
00:04:50,140 --> 00:04:52,940
There’s one more important step to this process,

110
00:04:52,940 --> 00:04:54,200
which according to our data,

111
00:04:54,200 --> 00:04:56,130
should make the situation a lot smoother.

112
00:04:56,600 --> 00:04:59,080

113
00:04:59,080 --> 00:05:02,440

114
00:05:02,920 --> 00:05:05,580
First of all, I want to clarify that the “Gold” supply

115
00:05:05,580 --> 00:05:08,660
will be available for purchase exclusively in the Shop,

116
00:05:08,660 --> 00:05:09,660
for real money.

117
00:05:09,660 --> 00:05:11,860
This decision was taken in order to avoid

118
00:05:11,860 --> 00:05:13,130
players transferring crystals

119
00:05:13,130 --> 00:05:15,050
from an account to another.

120
00:05:15,050 --> 00:05:16,300
Here is some additional information

121
00:05:16,300 --> 00:05:17,340
you will want to know:

122
00:05:17,340 --> 00:05:21,020
The box will always contain 1000 crystals.

123
00:05:21,020 --> 00:05:22,100
Even during holidays

124
00:05:22,100 --> 00:05:25,230
when gold boxes can contain up to 3000 crystals,

125
00:05:25,230 --> 00:05:27,080
a “Gold” activated by a player

126
00:05:27,080 --> 00:05:29,680
will still contain 1000 units,

127
00:05:29,680 --> 00:05:31,040
and its corresponding texture.

128
00:05:31,040 --> 00:05:32,700
As we’ve already mentioned,

129
00:05:32,700 --> 00:05:34,420
this supply will also be available

130
00:05:34,420 --> 00:05:36,370
as a reward in daily quests.

131
00:05:36,370 --> 00:05:37,440
We still haven’t decided

132
00:05:37,440 --> 00:05:38,550
the minimum required rank

133
00:05:38,550 --> 00:05:40,030
for the “Gold drop” mission.

134
00:05:40,030 --> 00:05:41,780
There will be an in-game option

135
00:05:41,780 --> 00:05:43,900
to have a notification saying that it was YOU

136
00:05:43,900 --> 00:05:46,980
who activated the gold box when the siren sounds.

137
00:05:46,980 --> 00:05:48,810
So, if you activate this option,

138
00:05:48,810 --> 00:05:51,570
the notification
“A gold box will soon be dropped”

139
00:05:51,570 --> 00:05:52,660
will be replaced with

140
00:05:52,660 --> 00:05:54,980
“ will soon drop a gold box”...

141
00:05:54,980 --> 00:05:56,360
or something like that.

142
00:05:56,360 --> 00:05:57,520
This option can be turned off

143
00:05:57,530 --> 00:06:00,650
in order to mask your gold box as a normal box.

144
00:06:03,360 --> 00:06:05,720
Video submissions for the 　Welcome Tanki　 contest

145
00:06:05,720 --> 00:06:06,940
are now closed.

146
00:06:06,940 --> 00:06:10,000
We’ll be announcing the winners on Monday, July 25th,

147
00:06:10,000 --> 00:06:11,720
and we’re planning on having the meetup

148
00:06:11,730 --> 00:06:13,210
on the 7th of August.

149
00:06:13,210 --> 00:06:16,140
The time and place will be announced
at a later date.

150
00:06:16,140 --> 00:06:17,540
Stay tuned for updates.

151
00:06:20,180 --> 00:06:30,200

152
00:06:53,880 --> 00:06:57,160

153
00:07:00,180 --> 00:07:03,900
Our V-LOG has reached the 100 episode milestone.

154
00:07:03,900 --> 00:07:05,660
It’s been an exciting journey,

155
00:07:05,660 --> 00:07:07,030
and many of you have been with us

156
00:07:07,030 --> 00:07:08,560
for a big part of it.

157
00:07:08,560 --> 00:07:10,680
Some of you have been around so long,

158
00:07:10,680 --> 00:07:13,540
that you even remember
the V-LOG s humble beginnings,

159
00:07:13,540 --> 00:07:15,730
using cheap, handheld cameras,

160
00:07:15,730 --> 00:07:18,150
primitive editing, and improvised scripts.

161
00:07:18,150 --> 00:07:21,870
Looking back, our V-LOG
has definitely come a LONG way.

162
00:07:22,780 --> 00:07:26,280
In fact, these days, things work very differently.

163
00:07:26,280 --> 00:07:28,080
Wanna have a look behind the scenes?

164
00:07:28,080 --> 00:07:28,900
Let’s go!

165
00:07:29,540 --> 00:07:31,380
The process starts with Kasim.

166
00:07:31,380 --> 00:07:33,050
His job is to gather information

167
00:07:33,050 --> 00:07:35,740
regarding the top events in the game and community,

168
00:07:35,740 --> 00:07:37,680
write the V-LOG script in Russian,

169
00:07:37,680 --> 00:07:40,520
and then hand it over to be translated into English.

170
00:07:40,840 --> 00:07:42,540
Once the translation is ready,

171
00:07:42,540 --> 00:07:44,020
it is passed on to Cedric,

172
00:07:44,020 --> 00:07:45,940
our International Community Manager.

173
00:07:46,260 --> 00:07:47,900
My job is to edit the script

174
00:07:47,900 --> 00:07:50,620
to make it relevant to the International Community,

175
00:07:50,620 --> 00:07:52,480
and set it up for voice recording.

176
00:07:52,880 --> 00:07:54,980
I also prepare the subtitles in English

177
00:07:54,990 --> 00:07:56,610
and pass them on to be translated

178
00:07:56,610 --> 00:07:58,620
by the other Community Managers,

179
00:07:58,620 --> 00:08:00,400
and the unofficial translators team.

180
00:08:00,880 --> 00:08:03,840
And then I record the script right here, in this room.

181
00:08:03,840 --> 00:08:05,260
And in case you guys didn t know me, I m Alex

182
00:08:05,260 --> 00:08:06,940
and I m the voice of the V-LOG.

183
00:08:07,540 --> 00:08:08,840
Once all of that is done,

184
00:08:08,840 --> 00:08:10,210
it’s up to me to make it look good

185
00:08:10,210 --> 00:08:12,250
with footage and editing.

186
00:08:12,250 --> 00:08:14,040
My name is Nik, and I’m the camera guy,

187
00:08:14,040 --> 00:08:16,900
slash editor, slash director of the V-LOG,

188
00:08:17,280 --> 00:08:18,860
and this is what the V-LOG looks like

189
00:08:18,870 --> 00:08:20,270
while I’m working on it.

190
00:08:23,700 --> 00:08:26,700
From Nik’s desk, the V-LOG is uploaded to Youtube,

191
00:08:26,700 --> 00:08:27,960
where the description,

192
00:08:27,960 --> 00:08:30,040
subtitles and annotations are added.

193
00:08:30,040 --> 00:08:33,000
All that’s left is to prepare the announcements and…

194
00:08:33,000 --> 00:08:33,640
publish!

195
00:08:38,300 --> 00:08:39,420
Video of the week.

196
00:08:39,420 --> 00:08:41,520
Last week, we asked you to send us a video

197
00:08:41,529 --> 00:08:43,899
featuring one of the lesser-known maps,

198
00:08:43,899 --> 00:08:45,880
while wearing the standard green paint,

199
00:08:45,880 --> 00:08:48,420
which can now be used with any protection module.

200
00:09:14,200 --> 00:09:16,500
Let’s stay on the theme of hidden gems.

201
00:09:16,500 --> 00:09:17,620
For the next episode,

202
00:09:17,620 --> 00:09:20,080
send us a video from the “Wolfenstein” map,

203
00:09:20,080 --> 00:09:21,940
while wearing the red paint.

204
00:09:21,940 --> 00:09:25,320
Make sure you record
some awesome and unusual footage!

205
00:09:27,440 --> 00:09:28,740
That’s all, tankers!

206
00:09:28,740 --> 00:09:30,680
A quick announcement before you go.

207
00:09:30,680 --> 00:09:33,300
Episode 101 of our videoblog

208
00:09:33,310 --> 00:09:35,290
will come out on the 5th of August.

209
00:09:35,290 --> 00:09:38,500
That means there will not be an episode next week.

210
00:09:38,500 --> 00:09:40,380
See you in two weeks time!

211
00:09:47,300 --> 00:09:49,880
Last week, we saw an M0 Smoky

212
00:09:49,880 --> 00:09:53,290
destroying an M3 Viking with 26 shots.

213
00:09:53,290 --> 00:09:54,410
The question was,

214
00:09:54,410 --> 00:09:55,790
what protection did Viking have

215
00:09:55,790 --> 00:09:57,560
against the Smoky turret.

216
00:09:57,560 --> 00:09:59,080
The correct answer is...

217
00:09:59,080 --> 00:10:00,580
+39%

218
00:10:01,140 --> 00:10:02,320
Let’s meet our winners

219
00:10:02,320 --> 00:10:03,699
and watch the next question.[]
