00:00:07,839 --> 00:00:09,259
Hello, Tankers!

2
00:00:09,259 --> 00:00:11,660
The Tanki Online V-LOG team is back!

3
00:00:11,660 --> 00:00:15,570
April Events are ongoing, and our work on
simplifying the game continues.

4
00:00:15,570 --> 00:00:18,930
The next change in line is protection modules:

5
00:00:18,930 --> 00:00:21,231
their upgrades, price, and availability.

6
00:00:21,231 --> 00:00:25,498
Protection Modules

7
00:00:25,498 --> 00:00:29,900
It is considered difficult to master the mechanics
of protection modules.

8
00:00:29,900 --> 00:00:32,860
Many new tankers are unfamiliar with protection
mechanics

9
00:00:32,860 --> 00:00:35,200
and don't equip the right modules.

10
00:00:35,200 --> 00:00:38,930
In addition, protection modules are less effective
at lower ranks,

11
00:00:38,930 --> 00:00:41,410
so most players don't bother to upgrade them.

12
00:00:41,410 --> 00:00:44,469
That’s why we decided to make protection
modules a feature

13
00:00:44,469 --> 00:00:48,590
available mainly for high-rank players, starting
from Marshal.

14
00:00:48,590 --> 00:00:53,540
Our numbers show that most players start actively upgrading their modules once
they reach this rank.

15
00:00:53,540 --> 00:00:56,109
They have already gained experience in battles

16
00:00:56,109 --> 00:00:58,930
and understand why and how to use modules.

17
00:00:58,930 --> 00:01:02,160
Thus, you will no longer be able to purchase
modules in the Garage

18
00:01:02,160 --> 00:01:04,569
until you reach the Marshal rank.

19
00:01:04,569 --> 00:01:08,310
Players at lower ranks who already own some
modules won’t lose them.

20
00:01:08,310 --> 00:01:11,880
Other players in this rank category who do
not have any modules

21
00:01:11,880 --> 00:01:16,360
will only be able to obtain them in Events
or from special offers.

22
00:01:16,360 --> 00:01:18,229
What conclusion can we draw from this?

23
00:01:18,229 --> 00:01:20,659
Yes, if your rank is lower than Marshal,

24
00:01:20,659 --> 00:01:23,900
hurry up and purchase protection modules while
they are still in the Garage!

25
00:01:23,900 --> 00:01:25,530
The option to purchase them

26
00:01:25,530 --> 00:01:28,320
will only be available for high-ranked players,

27
00:01:28,320 --> 00:01:30,189
and the prices of their upgrades will increase.

28
00:01:30,189 --> 00:01:35,245
Yes, we are going to alter the prices of module
upgrades and the system itself.

29
00:01:35,245 --> 00:01:38,890
Protection modules will no longer have modifications,
just like drones.

30
00:01:38,890 --> 00:01:43,159
You will only need to upgrade them from 5%
to 50% protection.

31
00:01:43,159 --> 00:01:45,450
That’s all we can tell you for now.

32
00:01:45,450 --> 00:01:50,729
Watch the next episode: we will tell you more
about the upcoming changes in a week.

33
00:01:50,729 --> 00:01:55,310
Q&A section

34
00:01:55,310 --> 00:01:57,390
After a major update such as this one,

35
00:01:57,390 --> 00:02:01,180
we feel that it is necessary to answer some
of your burning questions.

36
00:02:01,180 --> 00:02:06,359
You left over 300 questions in the comments
under our various social media posts,

37
00:02:06,359 --> 00:02:10,199
and here are some of the most popular ones:

38
00:02:10,199 --> 00:02:11,920
Artem Alimov asks:

39
00:02:11,920 --> 00:02:15,319
When will the Ratings page be finally updated?

40
00:02:15,319 --> 00:02:19,170
The Ratings website will not be updated.

41
00:02:19,170 --> 00:02:21,950
We have plans to move the ratings system into
the game itself,

42
00:02:21,950 --> 00:02:27,030
so there is no point in updating the website
anymore.

43
00:02:27,030 --> 00:02:28,670
Nikita Ivantsov asks:

44
00:02:28,670 --> 00:02:32,090
Will you ever make a drone that shoots at
enemies while driving around

45
00:02:32,090 --> 00:02:34,220
(for example, like Vulcan)?

46
00:02:34,220 --> 00:02:39,030
Current drones are made in such a
way that they interact with supplies,

47
00:02:39,030 --> 00:02:41,849
therefore shooting mechanics aren’t really
suitable for them.

48
00:02:41,849 --> 00:02:44,640
But if you really insist on having such a
drone,

49
00:02:44,640 --> 00:02:48,640
we may try to figure out ways to create one
that shoots at nearby enemies.

50
00:02:48,640 --> 00:02:53,530
It’ll be just like in Tanki X!

51
00:02:53,530 --> 00:02:55,250
Misha Korolev asks:

52
00:02:55,250 --> 00:02:58,069
Will it ever be possible to upgrade mines?

53
00:02:58,069 --> 00:03:02,049
Answer: We’ve thought about the possibility
of this before.

54
00:03:02,049 --> 00:03:06,500
In the early stages of the game, Mines are
very effective and fun to use.

55
00:03:06,500 --> 00:03:10,220
But at higher ranks, their effect becomes
noticeably weaker.

56
00:03:10,220 --> 00:03:14,030
Perhaps we could combine the upgrading of
Mines with the upgrading of Drones

57
00:03:14,030 --> 00:03:17,560
as it is done for Boosted Armor and Boosted
Damage supplies now.

58
00:03:17,560 --> 00:03:19,560
We are still thinking about it.

59
00:03:19,560 --> 00:03:23,086
Alexey Alekseev asks:

60
00:03:23,086 --> 00:03:29,230
Will there be notifications in CTF mode
when somebody loses/returns the flag?

61
00:03:29,230 --> 00:03:32,060
We haven’t forgotten about this
problem

62
00:03:32,060 --> 00:03:34,920
and will further improve the game interface
and notifications

63
00:03:34,920 --> 00:03:38,360
as soon as we get back to working on the battle
HUD.

64
00:03:38,360 --> 00:03:41,179
Ivan Klevogin asks

65
00:03:41,179 --> 00:03:43,890
Will the Challenges be diversified?

66
00:03:43,890 --> 00:03:48,560
The current ones are boring and the prizes
are often repeated.

67
00:03:48,560 --> 00:03:52,209
No, the Challenges will not see any substantial
change.

68
00:03:52,209 --> 00:03:55,540
Currently, Challenges are needed to earn crystals
and supplies.

69
00:03:55,540 --> 00:03:58,840
Augments and skins are considered an additional
bonus.

70
00:03:58,840 --> 00:04:01,810
We cannot create new augments and skins at
such a rate

71
00:04:01,810 --> 00:04:04,959
that a new one appears in the Challenges every
two weeks.

72
00:04:04,959 --> 00:04:08,569
However, there might be another way: On Tanki’s
birthday,

73
00:04:08,569 --> 00:04:12,980
we’re going to try something new in addition
to the usual Challenges.

74
00:04:12,980 --> 00:04:18,668
Follow the news so as not to miss any upcoming
announcements!

75
00:04:18,668 --> 00:04:20,279
Kamil Rabadanov asks:

76
00:04:20,279 --> 00:04:24,810
When will we get the promised 1 free nickname
change?

77
00:04:24,810 --> 00:04:28,130
The function is still in our development
plans.

78
00:04:28,130 --> 00:04:32,550
Hopefully we can get started with it soon.

79
00:04:32,550 --> 00:04:33,919
Nikita Ivantsov asks:

80
00:04:33,919 --> 00:04:38,940
Why are the Trophy Missions only with Striker
and Dictator?

81
00:04:38,940 --> 00:04:42,710
Trophy missions will feature all turrets
and hulls,

82
00:04:42,710 --> 00:04:45,259
but they will become available gradually.

83
00:04:45,259 --> 00:04:49,580
We don’t want the entire game to be full
of Phoenixes within a year.

84
00:04:49,580 --> 00:04:50,890
Serezha Ababkov asks:

85
00:04:50,890 --> 00:04:54,039
Will we ever see the reforming of the achievements
system (in the ratings page)?

86
00:04:54,039 --> 00:04:58,838
Will there be any prizes for achievements,
such as crystals or containers?

87
00:04:58,838 --> 00:05:02,870
We will not make changes to the current
achievements system.

88
00:05:02,870 --> 00:05:08,524
Instead it will be moved inside the game 
and will work similarly to the Ratings webpage.

89
00:05:08,524 --> 00:05:13,349
For getting new levels of achievements, we’re
planning to issue containers.

90
00:05:13,349 --> 00:05:15,872
nik.it.k4 asks:

91
00:05:15,872 --> 00:05:21,318
Please, explain why you added the “Buy Premium” button
on the results page after the battle is over,

92
00:05:21,318 --> 00:05:25,769
instead of showing the progress of Daily Missions
in there?

93
00:05:25,769 --> 00:05:30,382
We did not add the “Buy Pr emium”
button in the place of Daily Missions.

94
00:05:30,382 --> 00:05:36,611
We will be adding a button for Daily Missions
too, 
but this will take more time in development.

95
00:05:36,611 --> 00:05:38,291
davyd.leber asks:

96
00:05:38,291 --> 00:05:42,926
Will the development of XT Drones continue?

97
00:05:42,926 --> 00:05:47,374
After the rebalance of drones, it
makes sense to continue the work on this.

98
00:05:47,374 --> 00:05:50,481
It’s possible that we may add more XT drones.

99
00:05:50,481 --> 00:05:54,878
Let us know in the comments which drone you’d
like to see in XT form next!

100
00:05:54,878 --> 00:05:59,508
YouTubers

101
00:05:59,508 --> 00:06:05,067
Best combination for Juggernaut, new RetroFuture
skins, and better upgrades.

102
00:06:05,067 --> 00:06:08,747
It’s time for YouTuber digest – let’s
start!

103
00:06:08,747 --> 00:06:11,299
Are you a fan of the Juggernaut mode?

104
00:06:11,299 --> 00:06:15,188
ATM has found the best combo for destroying
the boss tank.

105
00:06:15,188 --> 00:06:16,433
Check it out!

106
00:06:31,736 --> 00:06:32,963
What’s your progress in the mini-game?

107
00:06:33,093 --> 00:06:35,850
Have you already received the RetroFuture
skins?

108
00:06:35,850 --> 00:06:40,812
If not, Jumper is here to show you how he
reached the grand prize!

109
00:07:03,000 --> 00:07:06,514
Let us remind you one more time how we’ve
tried to simplify the game.

110
00:07:06,514 --> 00:07:11,891
We have recently removed the upgrade timer,
and now you can upgrade any item instantly.

111
00:07:11,891 --> 00:07:17,591
It is not only easier for newcomers to understand
the game now, 
but also cheaper to upgrade their tanks!

112
00:07:17,591 --> 00:07:22,030
Watch TheDetective999Two’s review of this
update!

113
00:07:43,274 --> 00:07:48,408
Question of  the Week

114
00:07:48,408 --> 00:07:53,954
Last time, you had to guess how many Titan
domes would be left after everyone activates their Overdrive.

115
00:07:57,000 --> 00:07:59,122
The correct answer is: 3.

116
00:08:02,876 --> 00:08:05,133
Congratulations to the winners!

117
00:08:05,914 --> 00:08:07,889
And here is the next question:

118
00:08:21,000 --> 00:08:27,554
How many tanks are there equipped with the
Masters of Parkour 2023 paint?

119
00:08:27,554 --> 00:08:29,057
That’s all for today.

120
00:08:29,057 --> 00:08:32,741
The weekend is coming, so make sure to find
some time for your tank!

121
00:08:32,741 --> 00:08:38,020
Boosted funds and experience, the special
mode, and falling gold boxes await you!

122
00:08:38,020 --> 00:08:39,627
Bye![]
