1
00:00:09,309 --> 00:00:12,110
In today’s episode
we’ll be looking at Overdrives,

2
00:00:12,110 --> 00:00:14,400
which have FINALLY been
released this week.

3
00:00:14,400 --> 00:00:17,120
We’ll also be announcing the
Masters of parkour contest,

4
00:00:17,120 --> 00:00:19,240
and talking about cosmic adventures.

5
00:00:21,220 --> 00:00:22,360
Hello tankers!

6
00:00:22,360 --> 00:00:27,820
It’s been 82 weeks since Overdrives were
first announced at a tanki meet-up in Moscow.

7
00:00:27,820 --> 00:00:30,600
And this week, they
have finally been released!

8
00:00:30,600 --> 00:00:34,240
Some did not believe they would be
released before Tanki’s 10th Birthday.

9
00:00:34,240 --> 00:00:37,380
Others had given up hope that they
would ever see them in the game.

10
00:00:37,390 --> 00:00:41,280
But now, the biggest update
of this season is finally here.

11
00:00:41,280 --> 00:00:45,290
As for the bugs - well, there are still
a few scattered here and there,

12
00:00:45,290 --> 00:00:49,300
but they’re so rare that only experienced
testers will be able to catch them.

13
00:00:49,300 --> 00:00:52,600
Now you’re probably asking,
“What took you so long?”

14
00:00:52,600 --> 00:00:55,909
You see, Overdrives are like no
other update we’ve ever had.

15
00:00:55,909 --> 00:00:58,549
They touch ABSOLUTELY
all parts of the game.

16
00:00:58,549 --> 00:01:00,589
If you were to compare
Tanki to a human being,

17
00:01:00,589 --> 00:01:03,339
it’s the equivalent of
performing a delicate surgery

18
00:01:03,340 --> 00:01:07,240
on the whole body of a person who is
constantly running an endless marathon,

19
00:01:07,240 --> 00:01:10,080
and only stopping for a
5-minute break once a day.

20
00:01:10,080 --> 00:01:15,360
In short, it was a very VERY complex task
that required accuracy and caution.

21
00:01:15,360 --> 00:01:17,120
Fortunately, it’s done now.

22
00:01:17,120 --> 00:01:18,240
YEAH!

23
00:01:18,240 --> 00:01:22,320
By the way, we won’t be showing you
the Overdrive for the new hull just yet.

24
00:01:22,330 --> 00:01:23,409
It’s still a work-in-progress.

25
00:01:23,409 --> 00:01:25,800
But we’ll drop you a hint.

26
00:01:25,800 --> 00:01:28,900
This thing here… that’s not
just a random object.

27
00:01:31,800 --> 00:01:35,280
Together with Overdrives, we’ve also
released an update for Drones.

28
00:01:35,280 --> 00:01:38,480
Now, on top of helping you
with their standard abilities,

29
00:01:38,480 --> 00:01:42,620
drones will also passively boost your
turret’s damage and hull’s defense.

30
00:01:42,630 --> 00:01:47,549
The buff can go from 1 to 5%
depending on the Drone’s upgrade level.

31
00:01:47,549 --> 00:01:48,590
But pay attention!

32
00:01:48,590 --> 00:01:53,090
A drone will only give you these buffs if
it is being powered by a battery in battle.

33
00:01:53,090 --> 00:01:54,090
No batteries?

34
00:01:54,090 --> 00:01:57,530
No standard abilities
and no extra damage and protection.

35
00:01:57,530 --> 00:02:01,159
The Driver drone has also received
some tweaks with this update.

36
00:02:01,159 --> 00:02:02,780
Now that Overdrives are in the game,

37
00:02:02,780 --> 00:02:07,250
this drone’s parameters needed to be toned
down a bit to make sure it wasn’t overpowered.

38
00:02:07,250 --> 00:02:10,620
So now it takes a bit longer
to recharge your Overdrives.

39
00:02:13,470 --> 00:02:16,660
The latest release also included
some balance tweaks.

40
00:02:16,670 --> 00:02:20,790
With this update, Vulcan lovers
will love us… a bit less now.

41
00:02:20,790 --> 00:02:25,080
Now, after overheating, the Vulcan
will only deal a third of its damage.

42
00:02:25,080 --> 00:02:27,879
The point here is HOW
this turret was being used.

43
00:02:27,879 --> 00:02:31,420
The self-damage from overheating was
intended to be a warning to the tanker

44
00:02:31,420 --> 00:02:32,939
“Slow down hotshot.”

45
00:02:32,939 --> 00:02:36,569
“We know you wanna get that flag bearer,
but stop firing for a moment”.

46
00:02:36,569 --> 00:02:39,189
At least, that was the theory behind it.

47
00:02:39,189 --> 00:02:42,820
But in practice, if you were using a
heavy hull with Firebird resistance,

48
00:02:42,820 --> 00:02:45,060
and getting constantly 
healed by an Isida,

49
00:02:45,069 --> 00:02:48,280
you could virtually keep 
firing without ever stopping.

50
00:02:48,280 --> 00:02:53,680
This update forces players to control overheating,
while also reducing sustained firing time.

51
00:02:53,680 --> 00:02:56,030
However, we’re balancing
out this new mechanism

52
00:02:56,030 --> 00:03:00,629
by reducing the amount of time it takes
for Vulcan to start firing, by half a second.

53
00:03:00,629 --> 00:03:03,980
Additionally, Vulcan’s alterations
have also been tweaked.

54
00:03:03,980 --> 00:03:05,980
You can get the details in the patch-notes.

55
00:03:08,909 --> 00:03:12,340
Hey Masters of parkour...
it’s time to take to the skies!

56
00:03:12,340 --> 00:03:15,709
The tournament kicks
off this Tuesday, April 16th.

57
00:03:15,709 --> 00:03:19,080
Since our autumn announcement,
we have slightly revised the prizes.

58
00:03:19,080 --> 00:03:21,010
Of course they will be a little higher.

59
00:03:21,010 --> 00:03:22,050
But by how much?

60
00:03:22,050 --> 00:03:23,050
We’ll see.

61
00:03:23,050 --> 00:03:25,480
And while we’re on the topic,
many of you have been asking,

62
00:03:25,480 --> 00:03:28,220
“Since the 2018 edition didn’t happen,

63
00:03:28,220 --> 00:03:30,520
will there be an additional 
contest this year?”

64
00:03:30,520 --> 00:03:32,160
Of course! Why not?

65
00:03:34,280 --> 00:03:39,180
Today, Friday 12th, Cosmonautics Day
celebrations kicked off in Tanki Online.

66
00:03:39,180 --> 00:03:42,060
As always, there’s lots 
of cool stuff happening:

67
00:03:42,060 --> 00:03:47,200
Discounts of 30 percent for three days,
festive decorations and great value bundles.

68
00:03:47,200 --> 00:03:48,880
But the best thing is…

69
00:03:48,880 --> 00:03:50,610
Gold meteorites.

70
00:03:50,610 --> 00:03:53,750
The siren sounds...
a meteorite appears in the sky…

71
00:03:53,750 --> 00:03:57,290
smashes into the ground and
pulverizes everyone in the area,

72
00:03:57,290 --> 00:04:02,000
leaving behind lots of scrap and of
course... a Gold Box or a container.

73
00:04:02,000 --> 00:04:06,320
And these cute bundles of destruction
will be falling 20 times more often!

74
00:04:06,320 --> 00:04:10,380
So make sure you enjoy these three
days of meteorites… and overdrives.

75
00:04:12,200 --> 00:04:13,340
Video of the Week

76
00:04:13,340 --> 00:04:16,480
Unfortunately, we felt that none 
of the videos we received

77
00:04:16,480 --> 00:04:18,339
were good enough to 
deserve the win.

78
00:04:18,339 --> 00:04:20,859
So we’re carrying the prize 
over to next week,

79
00:04:20,860 --> 00:04:23,640
for a total of 100 thousand crystals.

80
00:04:23,640 --> 00:04:27,360
With Cosmonautics day in full swing,
and Overdrives in the game,

81
00:04:27,370 --> 00:04:30,360
we have the perfect topic for
the next Video of the Week.

82
00:04:30,360 --> 00:04:32,900
“How Overdrives helped me catch a meteorite”.

83
00:04:34,920 --> 00:04:36,220
That's all, tankers!

84
00:04:36,220 --> 00:04:39,680
Next week there will be no video blog,
but there will be a livestream.

85
00:04:39,680 --> 00:04:41,060
What will we discuss?

86
00:04:41,060 --> 00:04:42,100
Who will be our guest?

87
00:04:42,100 --> 00:04:44,100
We’ll give you the details a bit later.

88
00:04:44,100 --> 00:04:44,760
Bye!

89
00:04:50,920 --> 00:04:54,500
A week ago, several tankers
rushed for the April Fool's Gold.

90
00:04:54,500 --> 00:04:57,180
You had to guess what surprise awaited them.

91
00:04:57,180 --> 00:05:00,930
The correct answer is...
10 thousand crystals, option C.

92
00:05:00,930 --> 00:05:02,140
Here are our winners.

93
00:05:02,180 --> 00:05:03,520
And here’s the new question.

94
00:05:14,560 --> 00:00:00,000
Where will Wasp get stunned?[]
