00:00:15,740 --> 00:00:16,740
Hello Tankers!

2
00:00:16,740 --> 00:00:19,759
In today’s episode we’ll be telling
you more about Alterations,

3
00:00:19,760 --> 00:00:23,900
and answering your hottest questions
about the upcoming game balance changes.

4
00:00:23,900 --> 00:00:27,599
We’ve also got some cool news
about the Tanki Online Newspaper.

5
00:00:29,200 --> 00:00:30,660
We’ll be starting today’s episode

6
00:00:30,660 --> 00:00:33,440
by answering the following
question about Alterations:

7
00:00:33,620 --> 00:00:37,400
“Will I be able to install more than
one Alteration on my turret?”

8
00:00:37,640 --> 00:00:40,180
The answer is: “Yes of course!”

9
00:00:40,180 --> 00:00:44,200
Every turret has up to 4 slots
one for each category:

10
00:00:44,440 --> 00:00:47,180
One Alteration that
changes the shot color

11
00:00:47,180 --> 00:00:50,750
One Alteration that introduces
small gameplay changes

12
00:00:50,750 --> 00:00:54,600
One Alteration that changes the
turret’s characteristics even more

13
00:00:54,600 --> 00:00:58,720
And one more Alteration with a secret
effect that we’ll be revealing at a later date.

14
00:00:59,600 --> 00:01:02,480
In the future, every turret will
have a choice of Alterations.

15
00:01:02,480 --> 00:01:06,700
Moreover, every category will have
more than one Alteration to choose from.

16
00:01:06,700 --> 00:01:08,000
Using these modifications,

17
00:01:08,000 --> 00:01:11,660
you’ll be able to tune your turret
to better fit your playing style.

18
00:01:12,620 --> 00:01:14,600
In last week’s V-LOG,

19
00:01:14,600 --> 00:01:17,100
we announced a number of upcoming
changes in game balance.

20
00:01:17,100 --> 00:01:20,240
Many of you had a strong
reaction to this announcement.

21
00:01:20,240 --> 00:01:22,399
Some of you were upset,
some were happy,

22
00:01:22,409 --> 00:01:24,580
and some others were a bit confused.

23
00:01:24,580 --> 00:01:27,399
So, today we’ll be answering
some of the big questions

24
00:01:27,410 --> 00:01:29,910
you’ve been asking us about
the game balance changes.

25
00:01:30,140 --> 00:01:32,240
First of all, based on the
community’s feedback,

26
00:01:32,240 --> 00:01:34,660
we’ve decided to change the final prices.

27
00:01:34,660 --> 00:01:37,179
The changes in attributes
are still the same,

28
00:01:37,180 --> 00:01:39,340
but the jump in prices won’t be so big.

29
00:01:39,350 --> 00:01:43,479
The special Wiki article has already
been updated with all the changes.

30
00:01:43,479 --> 00:01:46,239
You can find the link to the article
in the V-LOG’s description.

31
00:01:53,160 --> 00:01:54,380
Of course not!

32
00:01:54,390 --> 00:01:56,530
All equipment that has been
purchased before the update

33
00:01:56,530 --> 00:01:58,590
will remain in players’ Garages.

34
00:01:58,590 --> 00:02:01,359
Of course, because of this,
some players will have equipment

35
00:02:01,359 --> 00:02:04,790
that shouldn’t be available at
their rank after the update,

36
00:02:04,800 --> 00:02:07,200
and this might cause a bit
of imbalance in battles.

37
00:02:07,200 --> 00:02:09,500
But this will only be a
problem for a short while,

38
00:02:09,500 --> 00:02:12,400
and everything will balance itself out in time.

39
00:02:14,160 --> 00:02:16,300
М3 kits will change.

40
00:02:16,300 --> 00:02:17,700
First of all, their prices will change

41
00:02:17,700 --> 00:02:20,980
to reflect the changes in price of
the equipment they contain.

42
00:02:20,980 --> 00:02:24,660
As for availability, right now,
all M3 kits are available

43
00:02:24,660 --> 00:02:28,390
two ranks lower than the highest,
minimum rank requirement inside the kit.

44
00:02:28,390 --> 00:02:30,910
The same principle will apply
after the update.

45
00:02:30,910 --> 00:02:34,780
All M3 turrets and hulls will become
available at the rank of Marshal,

46
00:02:34,780 --> 00:02:39,340
therefore, all M3 kits will be available
to buy at the rank of Lieutenant General.

47
00:02:46,840 --> 00:02:52,600
Armor and speed are mainly what
makes hulls light, middle or heavy.

48
00:02:52,700 --> 00:02:56,700
But characteristics such as
maneuverability, dynamics, and others,

49
00:02:56,700 --> 00:02:57,780
are also important.

50
00:02:57,780 --> 00:03:01,840
The Hornet will have better handling
and acceleration than Wasp.

51
00:03:03,900 --> 00:03:08,600
XT equipment will be changed
according to the balance changes.

52
00:03:08,600 --> 00:03:12,820
All characteristics, including rank
availability, will change after the update

53
00:03:12,820 --> 00:03:14,840
to reflect the standard versions.

54
00:03:14,840 --> 00:03:17,660
The only thing that won’t
change is price.

55
00:03:17,660 --> 00:03:21,240
XT prices will remain the
same as before the update.

56
00:03:24,390 --> 00:03:27,720
The number of MicroUpgrade steps
that players have applied

57
00:03:27,720 --> 00:03:30,859
to their hulls and turrets
will remain the same,

58
00:03:30,860 --> 00:03:33,200
but the price for each
step will change.

59
00:03:33,200 --> 00:03:36,839
It will be linked to the price
of its respective equipment.

60
00:03:36,840 --> 00:03:40,440
For example, the price for
Freeze M3 will increase,

61
00:03:40,440 --> 00:03:44,970
so every one of its micro-upgrade
steps will become more expensive.

62
00:03:44,970 --> 00:03:47,500
The opposite is true for Titan.

63
00:03:47,500 --> 00:03:50,780
After the update, this hull
will be cheaper, and as a result,

64
00:03:50,780 --> 00:03:53,560
every one of its micro-upgrade
steps will be cheaper.

65
00:03:57,300 --> 00:04:01,170
Of course, the characteristics of Wasp,
Hornet and Railgun will be different,

66
00:04:01,170 --> 00:04:03,940
but except for that fact,
the changes will be minor.

67
00:04:03,940 --> 00:04:08,340
Presently, you can join XP/BP battles
with M2 as well as M3 equipment.

68
00:04:08,340 --> 00:04:10,960
With M3 equipment,
everything is straightforward

69
00:04:10,960 --> 00:04:14,680
a Wasp or Hornet plus Railgun,
any paint, no modules.

70
00:04:14,680 --> 00:04:19,360
But if you’re using an M2 hull, its armor
automatically increases in such battles.

71
00:04:19,360 --> 00:04:22,520
This happens because the game
automatically equips your M2 hull

72
00:04:22,530 --> 00:04:25,369
with a special module that
protects you against Railgun.

73
00:04:25,370 --> 00:04:27,680
This is how the system
works right now.

74
00:04:27,690 --> 00:04:32,110
But after the update, M2 hulls will have a
slight increase in resistance against Railgun.

75
00:04:32,110 --> 00:04:32,950
That’s it.

76
00:04:37,160 --> 00:04:40,260
We’ve already dropped a hint
about this in the last V-LOG.

77
00:04:40,270 --> 00:04:43,599
For the duration of 4 days
after the update is release,

78
00:04:43,600 --> 00:04:46,000
battle funds will be
increased by 50%.

79
00:04:46,000 --> 00:04:50,800
For Premium account owners, the
increase will be two and a half times bigger.

80
00:04:50,900 --> 00:04:54,929
Additionally, for those 4 days, we’ll
also be having a 30% sale on supplies.

81
00:04:55,700 --> 00:04:59,820
The plan is to launch this update on
our test servers during the weekend.

82
00:04:59,820 --> 00:05:02,280
Those who can manage to
log into the test servers

83
00:05:02,289 --> 00:05:04,529
will be able to check out the changes.

84
00:05:04,529 --> 00:05:08,419
At the same time, we are also planning
on testing one more tiny update

85
00:05:08,420 --> 00:05:10,240
visible damage counters.

86
00:05:10,240 --> 00:05:12,320
We’ll let you know if the
test will be happening.

87
00:05:15,139 --> 00:05:18,239
The official Tanki Online
Newspaper keeps growing!

88
00:05:18,240 --> 00:05:21,220
From this month, besides the
English and German Newspapers,

89
00:05:21,229 --> 00:05:24,808
we’ll also be having a newspaper
in Hindi, and one in Arabic.

90
00:05:24,809 --> 00:05:27,620
These new publications
will feature new content,

91
00:05:27,630 --> 00:05:31,630
as well as some top articles translated
from the English version of the newspaper.

92
00:05:31,630 --> 00:05:32,900
But that’s not all!

93
00:05:32,900 --> 00:05:37,760
The Brazilian and Spanish Communities are
both working hard to set up their publications.

94
00:05:37,760 --> 00:05:42,600
The team for the Brazilian paper
has been assembled and is good to go,

95
00:05:42,690 --> 00:05:45,749
so you can expect some cool
articles in the very near future.

96
00:05:46,820 --> 00:05:48,600
In the Latin American community

97
00:05:48,690 --> 00:05:50,790
we are looking for a few more
volunteers to set up our team,

98
00:05:50,790 --> 00:05:55,930
so, if you can write good Spanish and you’re
interested in writing articles about Tanki Online,

99
00:05:55,930 --> 00:05:58,290
please contact me, your
LATAM Community Manager!

100
00:05:59,300 --> 00:06:00,560
Video of the week!

101
00:06:00,740 --> 00:06:04,780
Last Friday we asked you to shoot
a video on the theme “Save the gold”.

102
00:06:04,780 --> 00:06:06,419
We received lots of videos

103
00:06:06,419 --> 00:06:09,900
and it’s probably due to the 5 gold
boxes we added to the prize.

104
00:06:09,900 --> 00:06:11,900
Let’s watch the winning video!

105
00:06:41,910 --> 00:06:44,189
The theme for next week
will be a bit simpler

106
00:06:44,189 --> 00:06:48,489
show us your top skills on the
Madness map in a REAL battle.

107
00:06:48,489 --> 00:06:50,729
Make sure you’re wearing
the Orange paint!

108
00:06:53,240 --> 00:06:54,480
That’s it tankers!

109
00:06:54,480 --> 00:06:57,320
Remember to look for the final
code in this episode,

110
00:06:57,320 --> 00:06:59,540
and submit it using the special form.

111
00:06:59,540 --> 00:07:02,540
In the next VLOG, we’ll be
announcing our winners.

112
00:07:02,540 --> 00:07:03,300
See ya !

113
00:07:09,500 --> 00:07:11,680
Last week we gave you
a number of clues,

114
00:07:11,680 --> 00:07:13,740
and asked you to identify a map.

115
00:07:13,749 --> 00:07:15,780
The correct answer is Highland.

116
00:07:15,780 --> 00:07:17,539
Now, an important announcement.

117
00:07:17,540 --> 00:07:19,200
We’ve been thinking about increasing

118
00:07:19,290 --> 00:07:22,759
the number of winners for the
Question of the week, from 5 to 20.

119
00:07:22,759 --> 00:07:26,219
The prize per winner will be decreasing
to five thousand crystals,

120
00:07:26,220 --> 00:07:29,940
BUT your chances of winning will
be increasing by four times.

121
00:07:29,940 --> 00:07:33,640
In the VLOG’s description you’ll
find a link to a special survey.

122
00:07:33,640 --> 00:07:37,240
Use the survey to tell us which
version of the contest you prefer.

123
00:07:37,240 --> 00:07:40,660
In the next episode, we’ll let you
know what the majority has chosen,

124
00:07:40,660 --> 00:07:42,740
whether it’s 5, or 20 winners.

125
00:07:42,740 --> 00:07:44,200
And now, the new question!

126
00:07:57,680 --> 00:08:00,640
How many times will the shot bounce?[]
