1 00:00:15,599 --> 00:00:16,599 Hey tankers! 2 00:00:16,600 --> 00:00:20,020 In today’s episode, we’ll be reviewing this week’s game update. 3 00:00:20,020 --> 00:00:23,840 We’ll also be telling you about the mobile version of Tanki Online, 4 00:00:23,840 --> 00:00:27,340 and launching a new contest where YOU can win your Dream Tank. 5 00:00:28,720 --> 00:00:31,820 This week’s update brought a lot of changes to the game. 6 00:00:31,820 --> 00:00:32,820 In this episode, 7 00:00:32,820 --> 00:00:36,360 we won’t be focusing on the balance changes that were implemented. 8 00:00:36,360 --> 00:00:40,640 For that, we’ve made a special video with our game-designer Semyon Strizhak. 9 00:00:40,640 --> 00:00:44,280 In it, he explains in detail what has been changed, and why. 10 00:00:44,280 --> 00:00:46,360 The link to the video, is in the description. 11 00:00:47,260 --> 00:00:49,140 In addition to the balance changes, 12 00:00:49,140 --> 00:00:52,850 the latest update also introduced a new type of daily missions. 13 00:00:52,850 --> 00:00:56,360 To complete these missions, you will need to earn crystals in battles. 14 00:00:56,360 --> 00:00:58,359 You might have to do it in a specific game mode 15 00:00:58,360 --> 00:01:02,340 such as DM, CTF or others, or in regular battles. 16 00:01:02,340 --> 00:01:06,880 In December of 2016, battle creation became a PRO-only feature. 17 00:01:06,880 --> 00:01:10,360 Unfortunately, this reduced the variety in Daily Missions. 18 00:01:10,360 --> 00:01:14,880 But now, we have implemented a new kind of mission to make up for it. 19 00:01:14,880 --> 00:01:20,300 The update did not affect the percentage chance of getting supplies or crystals prizes. 20 00:01:20,300 --> 00:01:24,159 The update also brought a cool surprise for Premium account users, 21 00:01:24,160 --> 00:01:26,520 who will now be receiving a daily bonus. 22 00:01:26,520 --> 00:01:29,500 This will consist of 2500 crystals, 23 00:01:29,500 --> 00:01:32,820 3 Repair kits, and 10 of each of the other supplies, 24 00:01:32,820 --> 00:01:34,760 with the exception of gold boxes. 25 00:01:34,760 --> 00:01:37,520 This bonus is constant and is not connected to rank. 26 00:01:37,960 --> 00:01:39,300 Oh! A bonus! Cool! 27 00:01:39,300 --> 00:01:40,560 But it gets better. 28 00:01:40,560 --> 00:01:44,460 Now, those who wish to buy crystals, have two options. 29 00:01:44,460 --> 00:01:48,240 They can either buy one of the crystal packs, or buy Premium. 30 00:01:48,240 --> 00:01:53,880 For example 90 days of Premium cost roughly the same as crystal pack number 4. 31 00:01:53,880 --> 00:01:56,080 But even with a double crystal card, 32 00:01:56,080 --> 00:01:59,380 the 90 days of Premium is STILL more profitable. 33 00:01:59,380 --> 00:02:01,140 Additionally with a Premium account, 34 00:02:01,140 --> 00:02:04,760 you also get lots of supplies, plus a boost in experience, 35 00:02:04,760 --> 00:02:09,820 extra crystals in battle, and all the advantages of a PRO-pass. 36 00:02:09,820 --> 00:02:13,740 Of course, to get the maximum benefit out of your Premium account, 37 00:02:13,740 --> 00:02:18,540 you will need to log into the game and claim your daily bonus every day. 38 00:02:18,540 --> 00:02:23,520 And finally, the flag in Tanki Online has received a well-deserved makeover, 39 00:02:23,530 --> 00:02:27,160 to make it consistent with the futuristic style of its base. 40 00:02:27,160 --> 00:02:30,900 The old flag was kind of a legacy of the very first version of Tanki. 41 00:02:30,900 --> 00:02:34,080 It had a simple look, a piece of fabric hanging on a pole. 42 00:02:34,080 --> 00:02:38,420 This new design makes it look like a piece of technology with lots of flashing lights. 43 00:02:38,420 --> 00:02:40,760 And now there’s a logical reason why it glows. 44 00:02:41,600 --> 00:02:44,900 The latest update also brought changes to the Siege map. 45 00:02:44,900 --> 00:02:46,860 This map always had a problem. 46 00:02:46,860 --> 00:02:49,900 One team could trap the opposing team in their base. 47 00:02:49,900 --> 00:02:53,620 This problem became even worse with the release of the Magnum turret. 48 00:02:53,630 --> 00:02:55,280 So here’s what we did. 49 00:02:55,280 --> 00:02:58,160 We made the hill in the center of the map, bigger. 50 00:02:58,160 --> 00:03:01,120 This makes it harder to see opponents and fire at them. 51 00:03:01,120 --> 00:03:03,500 We also spread out the respawn points further, 52 00:03:03,500 --> 00:03:06,060 to make it impossible to trap a team inside their base. 53 00:03:09,160 --> 00:03:13,540 Two weeks ago, we had a live Q&A session, instead of the regular V-LOG. 54 00:03:13,540 --> 00:03:18,640 In it, we mentioned that our developers are working on the mobile version of Tanki Online. 55 00:03:18,640 --> 00:03:21,440 With the release of Tanki Online on mobile devices 56 00:03:21,440 --> 00:03:23,330 such as smartphones and tablets, 57 00:03:23,330 --> 00:03:25,850 we want to make the game more accessible for everyone 58 00:03:25,850 --> 00:03:28,230 and of course, attract new players. 59 00:03:28,230 --> 00:03:30,710 The task is definitely NOT a simple one, 60 00:03:30,710 --> 00:03:35,520 and for everything to work as it should, we first need to complete at least 3 tasks: 61 00:03:35,520 --> 00:03:38,030 The first one is the matchmaking system. 62 00:03:38,030 --> 00:03:40,990 Besides the obvious advantages that it brings to the game, 63 00:03:40,990 --> 00:03:46,080 it will also allow mobile phone players to find battles with just one click. 64 00:03:46,080 --> 00:03:49,420 The second thing is switching the game to HTML5, 65 00:03:49,420 --> 00:03:53,320 because mobile devices are not very friendly with flash technology, 66 00:03:53,320 --> 00:03:56,320 and browsers are now moving away from it too. 67 00:03:56,320 --> 00:03:58,400 And the third is controls. 68 00:03:58,400 --> 00:04:02,820 Right now, we are testing different versions of controls for the game. 69 00:04:02,820 --> 00:04:08,200 The main difficulty is to fit everything you need for the game, on a smartphone screen. 70 00:04:08,200 --> 00:04:11,880 We still don’t know how the game will be launched on mobile devices. 71 00:04:11,880 --> 00:04:13,600 There are two main options. 72 00:04:13,600 --> 00:04:18,000 The first is to launch the game via the mobile browser, just like you do now. 73 00:04:18,000 --> 00:04:22,100 You go to tankionline.com, press Play and so on. 74 00:04:22,100 --> 00:04:25,320 The second option is much more common for smartphones users 75 00:04:25,320 --> 00:04:27,440 to launch the game via an application 76 00:04:27,440 --> 00:04:30,540 that you need to download from the AppStore or GooglePlay. 77 00:04:30,540 --> 00:04:31,840 Closer to the launch date, 78 00:04:31,840 --> 00:04:35,100 we will tell you which version will be included in the first release. 79 00:04:35,100 --> 00:04:36,220 The important thing 80 00:04:36,220 --> 00:04:40,140 is that this will be the same game that you play on your computer. 81 00:04:40,140 --> 00:04:42,640 You won’t have to create a new account, and 82 00:04:42,640 --> 00:04:45,360 you’ll be able to play on your existing ones. 83 00:04:45,360 --> 00:04:47,870 For now, we don’t have a clear release date. 84 00:04:47,870 --> 00:04:51,940 As we’ve already said, we need to do a number of things first. 85 00:04:51,940 --> 00:04:56,000 We have to sort out the controls, switch to HTML5, 86 00:04:56,000 --> 00:04:58,320 and roll out the matchmaking system. 87 00:04:58,320 --> 00:05:02,720 Once we’ve done all of those things, we should be able to set a release date. 88 00:05:04,700 --> 00:05:06,120 Video of the week! 89 00:05:06,120 --> 00:05:10,420 Last time we asked you to shoot a video using Magnum in a REAL battle. 90 00:05:10,420 --> 00:05:12,340 Let’s check out the best entry. 91 00:05:46,460 --> 00:05:49,820 For next episode, show us something cool on a space map. 92 00:05:49,820 --> 00:05:54,020 Remember, you can activate Space mode in ANY map, not just Silence. 93 00:05:54,020 --> 00:05:56,280 And this mode isn’t just for parkour. 94 00:05:56,280 --> 00:05:58,280 You can play regular battles too! 95 00:05:58,280 --> 00:06:00,520 Just make sure you’re wearing the Red paint. 96 00:06:03,160 --> 00:06:05,460 Tanki’s birthday is in 6 weeks. 97 00:06:05,460 --> 00:06:09,300 To keep you entertained while you wait, we’re launching a cool new contest. 98 00:06:09,300 --> 00:06:11,640 If you’ve been following our V-LOG for a while, 99 00:06:11,640 --> 00:06:13,880 you’ll be familiar with how it works. 100 00:06:13,880 --> 00:06:17,620 We’ll be hiding a special code in every one of our upcoming V-LOGs, 101 00:06:17,620 --> 00:06:19,120 including this one. 102 00:06:19,120 --> 00:06:21,360 You will need to find the code and submit it, 103 00:06:21,370 --> 00:06:23,700 along with your nickname, in a special form. 104 00:06:23,700 --> 00:06:26,220 The link to this form is in the V-LOG’s description. 105 00:06:26,220 --> 00:06:29,340 Those of you who manage to submit all the correct codes, 106 00:06:29,340 --> 00:06:33,400 AND do it faster than everybody else, will win awesome prizes. 107 00:06:33,400 --> 00:06:36,210 The first tanker to submit all the correct codes, 108 00:06:36,210 --> 00:06:42,669 will get a fully upgraded Dream Tank including a hull, turret and module of his or her choice. 109 00:06:42,669 --> 00:06:43,920 The next 8 tankers, 110 00:06:43,920 --> 00:06:48,140 will get a fully upgraded hull OR turret OR module of their choice. 111 00:06:48,140 --> 00:06:52,160 And finally, all tankers who manage to submit all the correct codes, 112 00:06:52,169 --> 00:06:55,640 will get 3 gold boxes and 3 days of Premium account. 113 00:06:55,640 --> 00:06:57,420 Good luck and happy hunting! 114 00:07:00,000 --> 00:07:01,380 That’s it for today. 115 00:07:01,380 --> 00:07:03,620 Don’t forget to subscribe to our channel! 116

guess whose projectile would travel farthest. 119 00:07:18,820 --> 00:07:20,480 The correct answer is... 120 00:07:20,480 --> 00:07:21,980 tank number 3. 121 00:07:21,980 --> 00:07:23,100 Here are our
