00:00:15,640 --> 00:00:16,720
Hello Tankers!

2
00:00:16,720 --> 00:00:17,940
In today’s episode,

3
00:00:17,940 --> 00:00:21,380
we’ll be having an in-depth look
look at the new Magnum artillery turret,

4
00:00:21,380 --> 00:00:24,020
and getting more back story about its creation.

5
00:00:24,020 --> 00:00:26,980
We’ll be also be telling you about
a cool giveaway we’re having,

6
00:00:26,980 --> 00:00:29,820
where you can get the new
Magnum turret… for free!

7
00:00:31,200 --> 00:00:33,360
The hottest topic in the game right now,

8
00:00:33,360 --> 00:00:37,100
is the release of the new Magnum
artillery turret in Tanki Online.

9
00:00:37,340 --> 00:00:39,040
Let’s have a closer look at it.

10
00:00:39,680 --> 00:00:42,700
From day one, the rocket
launcher and artillery,

11
00:00:42,700 --> 00:00:45,629
were conceived as turrets that
would be challenging to play,

12
00:00:45,629 --> 00:00:49,120
take lots of time to master, and
probably not multi-purpose.

13
00:00:49,540 --> 00:00:52,680
Striker and Magnum took roughly
the same time to develop.

14
00:00:52,680 --> 00:00:57,120
However, while the rocket launcher was
more demanding on the programming side,

15
00:00:57,120 --> 00:01:01,200
artillery took longer in the creation
of graphics and sound effects.

16
00:01:01,200 --> 00:01:03,800
Before they actually started
working on the Magnum,

17
00:01:03,800 --> 00:01:08,020
our game-designers were considering
two possible variants for this turret

18
00:01:08,020 --> 00:01:11,520
the classic artillery, where the
barrel goes up and down,

19
00:01:11,520 --> 00:01:15,100
AND a kind of Bombard,
which is a short barrel cannon,

20
00:01:15,100 --> 00:01:18,680
where the turret has a fixed angle,
but can rotate horizontally.

21
00:01:19,060 --> 00:01:23,280
We chose not to make the Bombard,
because we didn’t find it cool enough.

22
00:01:23,280 --> 00:01:28,580
Our plan was to have an artillery turret that
would be great at mid to long distances,

23
00:01:28,580 --> 00:01:30,940
but suffer at close combat.

24
00:01:31,380 --> 00:01:34,620
It’s not just the controls of
this turret that work differently,

25
00:01:34,620 --> 00:01:36,340
but also the sound effects.

26
00:01:36,340 --> 00:01:39,680
For example, the sound of a
shot depends on its speed.

27
00:01:39,680 --> 00:01:41,350
Here’s the sound of a slow shot…

28
00:01:41,900 --> 00:01:45,560
and here’s what a shot at
maximum velocity sounds like…

29
00:01:48,200 --> 00:01:51,120
Artillery also has 2 new kinds of sounds.

30
00:01:51,120 --> 00:01:55,270
The first one is the sound the projectile
makes when it s about to hit you,

31
00:01:55,270 --> 00:01:58,260
like when a Striker rocket flies close to you.

32
00:01:58,260 --> 00:02:01,760
So, when Magnum is about to
hit you, you ll definitely hear it!

33
00:02:04,560 --> 00:02:07,000
The other one, is a distant booming sound.

34
00:02:07,000 --> 00:02:10,700
You will hear this no matter how
far away you are from the turret,

35
00:02:10,700 --> 00:02:13,460
and it is a reminder to all
the players on the map,

36
00:02:13,460 --> 00:02:15,980
of Magnum’s terrifying power.

37
00:02:19,260 --> 00:02:20,800
Now the practical part.

38
00:02:20,800 --> 00:02:23,300
Artillery is very good at team battles,

39
00:02:23,300 --> 00:02:27,060
but if you’re skillful enough, you can
also be quite successful at Deathmatch.

40
00:02:27,440 --> 00:02:29,520
These are the turret’s strong points:

41
00:02:29,820 --> 00:02:30,920
HUGE damage.

42
00:02:31,280 --> 00:02:33,180
Artillery with Double Damage,

43
00:02:33,180 --> 00:02:36,720
can one-shot kill a heavy hull
of the same modification level.

44
00:02:37,220 --> 00:02:39,469
The biggest splash damage in the game.

45
00:02:39,469 --> 00:02:44,100
In fact, it is not uncommon to deal
damage to two, three, or even four tanks.

46
00:02:44,720 --> 00:02:47,080
The ability to shoot from behind cover.

47
00:02:47,080 --> 00:02:50,540
You can deal damage to enemies
from a point where they can’t hit you.

48
00:02:50,720 --> 00:02:52,300
But what about the weak points?

49
00:02:52,640 --> 00:02:56,600
This is a very new, and really
challenging turret to use.

50
00:02:57,000 --> 00:03:00,400
First of all, the control keys work differently.

51
00:03:00,400 --> 00:03:05,240
Pressing the left turret rotation key,
will point Magnum down, and vice versa.

52
00:03:05,480 --> 00:03:07,560
It can be a bit confusing at first,

53
00:03:07,560 --> 00:03:11,400
but as you might know, it is now
possible to customize controls.

54
00:03:11,720 --> 00:03:15,480
The second, is that this turret
gives you limited visibility,

55
00:03:15,480 --> 00:03:18,000
because it doesn t rotate horizontally.

56
00:03:18,000 --> 00:03:22,080
This makes it impossible to look
around while driving to a location.

57
00:03:22,080 --> 00:03:27,200
And of course, there s the huge self-
damage that can ruin your kill/death ratio.

58
00:03:27,440 --> 00:03:28,600
One more thing.

59
00:03:28,600 --> 00:03:31,780
Although this turret can
fire from behind cover,

60
00:03:31,780 --> 00:03:34,040
its booming sound, big flash,

61
00:03:34,040 --> 00:03:38,100
projectile trail, and long barrel
sticking out from behind cover,

62
00:03:38,100 --> 00:03:39,960
make it fairly easy to find.

63
00:03:39,969 --> 00:03:42,030
And here s an important tip:

64
00:03:42,030 --> 00:03:44,640
Shaft can actually hit Magnum’s barrel.

65
00:03:44,640 --> 00:03:48,419
Damage indicators are a very
important tool for the Artillery user,

66
00:03:48,420 --> 00:03:51,080
since you can t always see where
your projectile has landed,

67
00:03:51,080 --> 00:03:52,919
and whether there was anyone there.

68
00:03:52,919 --> 00:03:53,950
But thanks to this feature,

69
00:03:53,950 --> 00:03:56,700
you ll be able to know whether
you need to correct your aim,

70
00:03:56,700 --> 00:04:00,019
or whether you ve destroyed your
target and need to find another one.

71
00:04:00,020 --> 00:04:02,660
So, make sure you always
keep this setting activated.

72
00:04:03,000 --> 00:04:07,100
And to conclude, “Why «Magnum»?
Couldn t you come up with something better?”

73
00:04:07,340 --> 00:04:10,880
This name won, because of
the raison d être… the “Why”.

74
00:04:10,889 --> 00:04:15,730
In Latin, Magnum means “The Great”.
High caliber shells are also called Magnum.

75
00:04:15,730 --> 00:04:17,780
Additionally, it is an international word,

76
00:04:17,780 --> 00:04:21,840
and most people pretty much understand
that “Magnum is something powerful”

77
00:04:24,920 --> 00:04:27,240
We ve already got some
cool gameplay videos

78
00:04:27,240 --> 00:04:29,700
from some of the top YouTubers
in our community.

79
00:04:29,700 --> 00:04:31,300
Make sure you check them out.

80
00:04:31,310 --> 00:04:33,450
The links, are in the description.

81
00:04:33,450 --> 00:04:37,729
We talked about how Magnum’s recoil
would make it a great turret for parkour.

82
00:04:37,729 --> 00:04:41,460
So, two giants in the international
community’s parkour scene,

83
00:04:41,460 --> 00:04:43,150
have put aside their rivalry,

84
00:04:43,150 --> 00:04:46,560
and collaborated to bring you the
first ever Parkour with Magnum.

85
00:04:46,840 --> 00:04:51,780
Please welcome, The Flying Parkourists,
and Fight and Flight, for your entertainment.

86
00:05:23,160 --> 00:05:24,460
Over the past week,

87
00:05:24,460 --> 00:05:27,880
Tanki community managers have
been playing around with the new turret,

88
00:05:27,880 --> 00:05:29,520
sometimes in regular battles,

89
00:05:29,520 --> 00:05:31,930
but mostly against each
other in office battles,

90
00:05:31,930 --> 00:05:33,240
with everyone using Magnum.

91
00:05:33,240 --> 00:05:34,940
It’s pretty fun actually!

92
00:05:34,940 --> 00:05:38,620
If you re itching to try the new turret,
you can buy it right now…

93
00:05:38,620 --> 00:05:40,560
OR you can try to earn it.

94
00:05:40,560 --> 00:05:42,759
On Thursday the 23rd of March,

95
00:05:42,760 --> 00:05:47,560
we launched a special giveaway, similar
to the one we had for Striker’s release.

96
00:05:47,980 --> 00:05:51,880
Every day during the event,
we’ll be randomly choosing a winner

97
00:05:51,880 --> 00:05:57,740
from among those players who
have made 500+ kills in 24 hours,

98
00:05:57,740 --> 00:05:59,980
in regular NON-PRO battles.

99
00:05:59,980 --> 00:06:04,780
Additionally, tankers who make over
one thousand kills in 24 hours,

100
00:06:04,790 --> 00:06:08,949
will get a free Griffon T-F module
with Magnum resistance.

101
00:06:08,949 --> 00:06:12,900
You can find the link to the full contest
details in the VLOG’s description.

102
00:06:12,900 --> 00:06:16,560
Make sure you read the
rules and the F.A.Q. Good luck!

103
00:06:18,780 --> 00:06:20,320
Video of the week!

104
00:06:20,320 --> 00:06:23,860
Last week’s theme was open.
Let s see the best entry.

105
00:06:54,920 --> 00:06:55,919
Well done.

106
00:06:55,919 --> 00:06:58,080
For next time, the theme will also be open,

107
00:06:58,080 --> 00:07:00,960
but you need to be using
Wasp with the orange paint.

108
00:07:03,880 --> 00:07:05,440
That’s it for today!

109
00:07:05,440 --> 00:07:07,560
If you still have questions about Magnum,

110
00:07:07,560 --> 00:07:10,389
ask us in the comments
below, or on the forum.

111
00:07:10,389 --> 00:07:12,760

112
00:07:12,760 --> 00:07:14,120
See you next week!

113
00:07:20,560 --> 00:07:24,060
Last time you had to guess how
many flips Wasp would do

114
00:07:24,060 --> 00:07:28,830
after being shot by 1 Hammer and
3 Railguns on the Esplanade map.

115
00:07:28,830 --> 00:07:31,300
The correct answer is… 5.

116
00:07:31,320 --> 00:07:34,080
Here are our winners, and
here s the new question.[]
