2
00:00:08,700 --> 00:00:10,260
In today’s episode we’ll be talking

3
00:00:10,260 --> 00:00:12,860
about balance changes
for Ricochet and Magnum.

4
00:00:12,860 --> 00:00:15,420
We’ll be also discussing
the length of battles and

5
00:00:15,420 --> 00:00:18,080
introducing a big pack of new drones.

6
00:00:19,480 --> 00:00:20,680
Hello tankers!

7
00:00:20,680 --> 00:00:22,900
Last week had a bunch
of interesting updates.

8
00:00:22,910 --> 00:00:24,689
Let’s discuss them
in a bit more detail,

9
00:00:24,689 --> 00:00:26,390
than in the Patch Notes on the Forum.

10
00:00:26,390 --> 00:00:27,390
Ricochet.

11
00:00:27,390 --> 00:00:30,790
We saw many comments along
the lines of “Ugh, Rico is nerfed!

12
00:00:30,790 --> 00:00:32,610
It was already pretty weak!”.

13
00:00:32,610 --> 00:00:34,210
This is not entirely true.

14
00:00:34,210 --> 00:00:36,580
Yes, the range of the
turret was reduced,

15
00:00:36,580 --> 00:00:39,390
but the turret now also
uses less energy per shot,

16
00:00:39,390 --> 00:00:42,679
so you can fire more shots
before you run out of energy,

17
00:00:42,679 --> 00:00:46,469
plus this parameter now depends
on how upgraded the turret is.

18
00:00:46,469 --> 00:00:51,440
Previously, using a full tank of energy,
Ricochet would fire only 14 shots,

19
00:00:51,440 --> 00:00:55,640
and now with an upgraded M3
it’s a whole 29 shots!

20
00:00:55,649 --> 00:00:57,399
Ricochet is now way
more comfortable,

21
00:00:57,399 --> 00:00:59,489
so definitely try it out!
Now Magnum.

22
00:01:00,670 --> 00:01:03,109
Its changes were more
intricate and of course,

23
00:01:03,109 --> 00:01:05,861
overall it was a small decrease
in the turret’s power

24
00:01:05,861 --> 00:01:07,950
which had been requested
for a long time.

25
00:01:07,950 --> 00:01:10,360
So, splash damage
is now weaker –

26
00:01:10,360 --> 00:01:13,440
5-tank monster kills will
be harder to pull off.

27
00:01:13,440 --> 00:01:14,659
And the second change:

28
00:01:14,659 --> 00:01:17,009
reload speed at short range
was increased

29
00:01:17,009 --> 00:01:19,340
and at long range
it was reduced.

30
00:01:19,340 --> 00:01:22,080
This way we’ve once again
established that Magnum,

31
00:01:22,080 --> 00:01:23,180
first and foremost,

32
00:01:23,180 --> 00:01:26,340
is meant to be artillery
-- a long range turret.

33
00:01:26,340 --> 00:01:28,020
One more considerable change --
the length of battles was
reduced to 9 minutes.

34
00:01:30,800 --> 00:01:33,300
We continue to experiment
with battle duration,

35
00:01:33,300 --> 00:01:34,899
and as practice shows,

36
00:01:34,899 --> 00:01:38,520
in Matchmaking games short
and dynamic battles always win,

37
00:01:38,520 --> 00:01:41,680
since in the same length of time
you get more maps, more teams,

38
00:01:41,680 --> 00:01:42,860
and more excitement.

39
00:01:42,870 --> 00:01:44,259
The advantage is clear --

40
00:01:44,260 --> 00:01:46,880
the shorter the battles, the
more often they are finished,
and the more often the
Battle Fund gets distributed,

41
00:01:49,380 --> 00:01:52,700
which in turn means that
overall you get more stars!

42
00:01:52,700 --> 00:01:54,789
Bobruisk is in Matchmaking.

43
00:01:54,789 --> 00:01:57,939
This is the 4th map to be added
in standard battles this week.
We’ve talked about
the 3 others earlier.

44
00:02:00,009 --> 00:02:01,470
Compared to the base version,

45
00:02:01,470 --> 00:02:04,119
the Matchmaking version of
Bobruisk is more rounded,

46
00:02:04,160 --> 00:02:06,280
and some obstacles and
walls have been changed.

47
00:02:18,180 --> 00:02:20,880
And the last point among
more noticeable changes:

48
00:02:20,880 --> 00:02:24,330
M0 equipment now has
twenty Micro-Upgrade steps.

49
00:02:24,330 --> 00:02:28,040
The overall cost and time of upgrading
remains the same as before the change.

50
00:02:28,880 --> 00:02:31,080
And don't forget about the Star Week.

51
00:02:31,080 --> 00:02:34,640
There are discounts ahead in
Tanki Shop and in the Garage,
as well as the last
chance to earn stars.

52
00:02:37,640 --> 00:02:42,220
This time getting 700 stars will
bring you 30 containers in total,

53
00:02:42,220 --> 00:02:45,160
and a brand new
animated paint "Runes"

54
00:02:45,160 --> 00:02:46,560
Hurry up, tankers!

55
00:02:49,140 --> 00:02:51,280
Now let’s talk about Halloween.

56
00:02:51,300 --> 00:02:53,940
More precisely, the updates
planned for Halloween,

57
00:02:53,940 --> 00:02:56,840
and even more precisely
- the upcoming drones.

58
00:02:56,840 --> 00:03:00,170
Right now, there are 6 drones
in the game, and there will be 9…
NINE MORE!

59
00:03:01,670 --> 00:03:03,510
Which means 9 new game mechanics,

60
00:03:03,510 --> 00:03:05,780
which will all be added
to the game at once.

61
00:03:05,780 --> 00:03:08,950
Let’s go over each of the
new drones one by one.

62
00:03:08,950 --> 00:03:12,200
Just to clarify – the names
are subject to change:

63
00:03:12,200 --> 00:03:15,180
First drone -- Defender.
When using Double Armor

64
00:03:15,180 --> 00:03:19,260
its protecting effect will be boosted
for a short period of time.
Second -- Booster
-- similar to Defender –

65
00:03:22,250 --> 00:03:27,070
for a brief time it will boost the effect
of a Double Damage supply or drop.

66
00:03:27,070 --> 00:03:28,070
Sapper.

67
00:03:28,070 --> 00:03:32,820
After being destroyed, some previously
dropped mines will remain on the battlefield

68
00:03:32,820 --> 00:03:33,860
Camper.

69
00:03:33,860 --> 00:03:38,060
Speeds up the reload time for
supplies if the tank is at full health.

70
00:03:38,070 --> 00:03:39,140
Demoman.

71
00:03:39,140 --> 00:03:41,920
Explodes the tank upon
destruction or self-destruction,

72
00:03:41,920 --> 00:03:44,240
damaging nearby enemies.

73
00:03:44,240 --> 00:03:45,370
And Rescuer.

74
00:03:45,370 --> 00:03:50,060
After each drone’s recharge allows to
survive fatal damage done to the tank.

75
00:03:50,060 --> 00:03:52,090
And now the last 3 drones.

76
00:03:52,090 --> 00:03:54,110
Their appearance
is work in progress.

77
00:03:54,110 --> 00:03:55,110
Saboteur.

78
00:03:55,110 --> 00:03:58,960
After placing a mine it will also place
several additional mines around it.

79
00:03:58,960 --> 00:04:01,540
Works when the drone
is fully charged.

80
00:04:01,550 --> 00:04:02,550
Sprinter.

81
00:04:02,550 --> 00:04:05,560
After picking up the flag,
the ball or capturing a point

82
00:04:05,560 --> 00:04:08,840
it will activate Repair Kit,
Double Damage, Double Armor

83
00:04:08,840 --> 00:04:10,780
and Speed Boost
for a short time.

84
00:04:10,780 --> 00:04:13,620
Also works only when
the drone is at full charge.

85
00:04:13,620 --> 00:04:15,360
And the last drone is Trickster.

86
00:04:15,360 --> 00:04:17,960
When the drone is ready and
you’re using Speed Boost,

87
00:04:17,970 --> 00:04:22,220
the instant supplies reload will be
activated for nearby allies and yourself.

88
00:04:22,220 --> 00:04:24,600
In the end we will get a ton
of cool new mechanics,

89
00:04:24,600 --> 00:04:27,560
which will help some survive longer,
some to do more damage,

90
00:04:27,560 --> 00:04:30,880
and others to be more
effective at stealing flags.

91
00:04:30,880 --> 00:04:33,699
In future V-LOGs we will tell
more about the other updates

92
00:04:33,699 --> 00:04:35,680
that are prepared for
the end of October –

93
00:04:35,680 --> 00:04:39,040
some we’ve already talked about,
and some are yet to be unveiled.

94
00:04:41,020 --> 00:04:42,360
Video of the Week.

95
00:04:42,370 --> 00:04:45,300
In the last episode we’ve accidentally
tasked you with an impossible challenge

96
00:04:45,300 --> 00:04:48,750
-- to record a video on a
space version of a MM map.

97
00:04:48,750 --> 00:04:49,750
To make things easier,

98
00:04:49,750 --> 00:04:51,909
we accepted videos
recorded on all maps.

99
00:04:51,909 --> 00:04:53,180
Let’s watch the best one!

100
00:05:22,940 --> 00:05:25,500
And for next time the
task is plain and easy:

101
00:05:25,500 --> 00:05:27,720
Hornet, Smoky, not parkour.

102
00:05:27,720 --> 00:05:28,960
Record something impressive!
Don’t forget to wear the Green paint.

103
00:05:32,920 --> 00:05:34,700
That’s it for today’s episode!

104
00:05:34,710 --> 00:05:37,650
Enjoy the rest of the Star Week,
wait for more Mobile news

105
00:05:37,650 --> 00:05:38,949
and watch out for new movies ;)

106
00:05:38,960 --> 00:05:40,120
Bye!

107
00:05:48,260 --> 00:05:50,940
Last week we showed you
a tank in Spectrum paint,

108
00:05:50,950 --> 00:05:52,560
which changed several colors.

109
00:05:52,560 --> 00:05:55,410
You had to guess a specific
color at a specific moment,

110
00:05:55,410 --> 00:05:58,100
and the right answer is
-- Red, option B.

111
00:05:58,100 --> 00:06:00,580
Let’s welcome the winners
and here’s today’s question:

112
00:06:13,580 --> 00:06:16,620
How many shots will it take
to destroy Mammoth?[]
