19 00:01:24,125 --> 00:01:27,688 The second topic to discuss is the end of the Wild West event. 20 00:01:27,688 --> 00:01:30,482 We congratulate team “Sheriffs” for their victory. 21 00:01:30,482 --> 00:01:35,998 You managed to keep the pressure on team “Bandits” and did not let them take control of the Wild West. 22 00:01:35,998 --> 00:01:39,730 All the rewards are already in your accounts, check your Garage! 23 00:01:39,730 --> 00:01:44,555 Finally, the new Halloween mini-game started 11 hours ago! 24 00:01:44,555 --> 00:01:46,352 Do you know all the details? 25 00:01:46,352 --> 00:01:47,996 If not, here you go! 26 00:01:47,996 --> 00:01:52,535 It’s easy to participate, just open the website of the mini-game and log in. 27 00:01:52,535 --> 00:01:55,727 Soon after that, you will see the round game board. 28 00:01:55,727 --> 00:01:58,644 You need the special «Lollipop» currency to make a move. 29 00:01:58,644 --> 00:02:07,943 To get units of this currency, you can complete special missions, purchase special offers, or buy packs of «Lollipops» for crystals and Tankoins right in the Shop. 30 00:02:07,943 --> 00:02:12,454 One more way to receive it is to catch special Gold Boxes in Matchmaking battles. 31 00:02:12,454 --> 00:02:18,032 The rest of the information is available on the homepage of our website and in the mini-game’s video guide. 32 00:02:18,032 --> 00:02:19,564 Good luck out there! 33 00:02:19,564 --> 00:02:22,293 And now let’s discuss some upcoming updates. 34 00:02:22,293 --> 00:02:27,569 Upgrades for Crystals, Modifications for Tankoins! 35 00:02:27,569 --> 00:02:31,371 The prices of buying equipment modifications will change with an upcoming update. 36 00:02:31,371 --> 00:02:37,920 The overall plan is to simplify the system by eliminating the forced purchase of modifications once they become available. 37 00:02:37,920 --> 00:02:42,875 Instead, the player will be encouraged to go through the upgrade steps within the current modification. 38 00:02:42,875 --> 00:02:47,001 When you buy a new modification after fully upgrading the previous one, 39 00:02:47,001 --> 00:02:51,825 you pay a hefty price, yet the characteristics of the equipment do not change at all. 40 00:02:51,825 --> 00:02:57,920 Therefore, one might argue that the crystals one spends do not bring any value in terms of your battle performance. 41 00:02:57,920 --> 00:03:06,315 It feels unfair that you need to spend 50% of the crystals on gradual upgrades and another 50% on removing the “lock” icon. 42 00:03:06,315 --> 00:03:09,527 As a result, it was decided to settle on the following option: 43 00:03:09,527 --> 00:03:15,683 the cost of upgrade steps will remain the same, and the purchase of a modification will cost you close to nothing. 44 00:03:15,683 --> 00:03:20,134 The modification can be unlocked for a very low and nominal cost in Tankoins. 45 00:03:20,134 --> 00:03:22,611 In the end, we will reach the following: 46 00:03:22,611 --> 00:03:29,314 the players will not overpay in any way while upgrading equipment, and the modifications can be purchased with Tankoins. 47 00:03:29,314 --> 00:03:32,354 You can earn 100 Tankoins from the Battle Pass, 48 00:03:32,354 --> 00:03:38,457 and a further 24 Tankoins per week can be obtained from Weekly Containers — you get three per week. 49 00:03:38,457 --> 00:03:42,603 Also, new Tutorial missions will become available for all ranks very soon. 50 00:03:42,603 --> 00:03:47,833 They will have stages, like the current Weekly Missions, and will become available gradually. 51 00:03:47,833 --> 00:03:50,779 At least a hundred Tankoins are included as a prize! 52 00:03:50,779 --> 00:03:55,713 Oh, and there will also be a new source of Tankoins, which we haven’t told you about yet… 53 00:03:55,713 --> 00:04:00,790 Rank Progress Screen 54 00:04:00,790 --> 00:04:05,310 We want to share with you how comfortable and simple the rank progress screen will become. 55 00:04:05,310 --> 00:04:08,556 Now the final stages of tests are being completed. 56 00:04:08,556 --> 00:04:12,882 The rank icon in the Lobby will become clickable and will have several functions. 57 00:04:12,882 --> 00:04:18,216 Every time you get a new rank, a notification sign will appear on the rank icon. 58 00:04:18,216 --> 00:04:26,581 By clicking on it, you will open the progress screen where you will see the ranks you have reached and how much experience you still need to earn for the next one. 59 00:04:26,581 --> 00:04:33,023 Also, all the rank icons on that screen will be clickable irrespective of whether they have already been reached or not. 60 00:04:33,023 --> 00:04:39,656 There you can learn what items or features you unlock, like accessing the in-game chat, or access to PRO-Battles. 61 00:04:39,656 --> 00:04:49,262 Once you reach the Legend rank, one more part is added which updates every 200 000 experience points and shows how far you have progressed within the Legend rank! 62 00:04:49,262 --> 00:04:53,646 Expect the update to hit the main servers in the first half of November! 63 00:04:53,646 --> 00:04:58,009 Q&A section 64 00:04:58,009 --> 00:05:00,517 We got another set of questions from our players. 65 00:05:00,517 --> 00:05:02,063 Let’s answer them now. 66 00:05:02,063 --> 00:05:08,793 That’s what the Blitz Q&A section of the V-LOG is for, and Hazel is here to give some answers! 67 00:05:08,793 --> 00:05:15,881 DespairRUS asks: How is it going with gifts? Will they be added till the end of the year? 68 00:05:15,881 --> 00:05:22,680 Gifts will come back to the game, but only after we add public profiles of players inside the game. 69 00:05:22,680 --> 00:05:31,897 Vladimir2001A asks: Will all the skins be added to Ultra Containers during the «Black Friday» event?\ 70 00:05:31,897 --> 00:05:37,603 Now this has become an official tradition and we will continue it. 71 00:05:37,603 --> 00:05:49,227 The-END asks: Will you exclude purchased stars from the rating of the «Challenge Accepted» event to make the fight for the prizes more fair? 72 00:05:49,227 --> 00:05:53,649 The option to purchase stars in the «Challenge Accepted» event is intentional. 73 00:05:53,649 --> 00:05:57,193 Changing the rules of the event will affect the set of rewards too. 74 00:05:57,193 --> 00:06:00,322 Take a look at other events we have. 75 00:06:00,322 --> 00:06:13,601 Paparik asks: In episode 440 of the V-LOG you told us about the idea of graffities in the game after the system of decals is added. Did you cancel or postpone it? 76 00:06:13,601 --> 00:06:16,724 As for now, we put this idea on the back burner. 77 00:06:16,724 --> 00:06:22,901 It is also crucial to mention that we do not want graffiti to become another feature like paints that players do not care much about. 78 00:06:22,901 --> 00:06:25,532 It would be interesting to give graffiti for some achievements. 79 00:06:25,532 --> 00:06:39,312 The-END asks: Are you going to add an update to PRO battles such that it will be possible to automatically remove players from battles if they are intentionally inactive or try to play in favor of the opposite team? 80 00:06:39,312 --> 00:06:45,833 An option to make a vote for a kick of a player is in our backlog of PRO battles. 81 00:06:45,833 --> 00:06:55,162 Soothing asks: Should we expect Pulsar augments for each turret to be added to Regular Containers in the future? 82 00:06:55,162 --> 00:07:02,557 The Pulsar augments were designed to be the content of special events and we have no plan to add them to Regular Containers. 83 00:07:02,557 --> 00:07:17,642 014 asks: Don’t you think that it is time to fix the way of grinding points in the Juggernaut mode to obtain the Phoenix augments as well as take back the items received due to this bug and halve their mission progress? 84 00:07:17,642 --> 00:07:20,324 We do not identify it as a bug. 85 00:07:20,324 --> 00:07:26,843 But as we said in the previous episode, we do not like that players started to spend too much time in the Juggernaut mode. 86 00:07:26,843 --> 00:07:29,527 We are going to fix it. 87 00:07:29,527 --> 00:07:36,616 MEXICAN-SKY asks: Will it be possible to change the hotkeys for Grenades in the future? 88 00:07:36,616 --> 00:07:41,671 You already can change the hotkey used to throw Grenades in the Settings. 89 00:07:41,671 --> 00:07:49,978 If the question is because of the fact that you cannot throw a Grenade when you have a flag, it is not a problem of hotkeys, but an intended limitation. 90 00:07:49,978 --> 00:07:53,924 A player that holds a flag shouldn’t be able to use Grenades. 91 00:07:53,924 --> 00:07:58,814 Question of the Week 92 00:07:58,814 --> 00:08:05,863 Last time, you had to guess what percentage of HP Godmode_ON had left. 93 00:08:05,863 --> 00:08:10,740 The correct answer is: 50. 94 00:08:10,740 --> 00:08:12,872 Congratulations to the winners! 95 00:08:12,872 --> 00:08:15,385 And here is the next question: 96 00:08:34,140 --> 00:08:40,226 Which Wasp will fly the farthest after being hit by a single shot? 97 00:08:40,226 --> 00:08:41,774 That was all for this week. 98 00:08:41,774 --> 00:08:45,124 Share with us how you’re going to spend your weekend in the comments below. 99 00:08:45,124 --> 00:08:51,970 Don’t forget to check our social media pages during the weekdays, and subscribe to this channel if you haven’t done so yet! 100 00:08:51,970 --> 00:08:53,537 We will see you in a week. 101 00:08:53,537 --> 00:08:54,530 Bye![]
