Tanki X

Patch Notes 08.06.2018 - New map and paints

Greetings, tankers! 

Today, during the second half of the day, Tanki X will officially be released in Turkey. This is one of the many countries and regions that we are planning to release the game in, during the second half of this year and the entirety of the next year. We believe this is a good reason to celebrate, just a little. 

New map



Or better said, an old map with a new visual design. Specifically for this event, we are releasing the reworked Iran map under the name "Arabian night".

The desert at night can be a very cold place unless you’re in the midst of a battle. Both Antaeus and Frontier are alternately trying to catch each other by surprise by attacking at different times of the day. Your platoon was ordered to attack today at dusk. Make sure your tank is in excellent condition, equip your best paint, and get ready to blow up some enemy steel. One tanker can make all the difference. Today, that tanker is You!




New paints



Between the 8th and the 20th of June:
  • Use the "EasternStar" promo code and get a gift paint called "Eastern star"!
  • An additional paint will be available in our in-game store, called "Mosaic" for the price of 250 X-crystals. 



These paints will become unavailable on June 21st. 

Have a wonderful week and have fun!

Patch Notes 31.05.2018 - Season of the Tiger

Greetings, tankers! 

Today marks the end of the 6th ranked season. Every player that played at least one battle during this season, has already received the deserved rewards. Just like at the end of previous seasons, we've reduced the reputation points for the majority of players, so that in the new season, everybody can have a decently fair chance at getting at the top of the reputation ladder. 

Here are the principles that we currently follow when reducing reputation points at the end of a season: 
  • Players with end the season with less than 400 reputation points don't lose any;
  • Players who end the season in the Master league, get their reputation points reduced down to 2750 reputation points;
  • The rest of the players get their reputation points reduced by 40%.

Good news!


Based on the feedback that we got from players, we decided that the "Hero" paint, that was recently introduced as a reward for the best-ranked player of the season, will not be passed on from a winner to another every season, but will rather permanently remain in the winner's garage. 



The first owner of this paint has officially become, the player under the nickname "Immediate". Congratulations!

The list with the top50 standings for the previous season is available below.



Season of the Tiger!


This season will last until the 12th of July!

A couple changes that will take effect with the start of the new season:
  • The Master league minimum reputation mark has been increased from 2500 to 2750 reputation points. 
  • The number of containers that players from the Bronze, Silver, and Gold league get as season rewards, was increased to 15. 
  • The "Hero" paint was updated with a unique animation. The paint will be awarded to the best-ranked player of the season and will permanently remain in his garage. 




Celebration!



In celebration of the new season and Children's Day, we've prepared a couple of surprises for you this weekend. The celebration will last between the 31st of May and the 4th of June! 

Double experience rate!



During the next 4 days, every battle you play, that awards experience, will earn you double the amount of experience. This will significantly boost your tank upgrades, rank, and the container progress bar. 

Play and upgrade, baby. Oh, and don't forget to activate that premium, the numbers will go skyrocket!

The "Spectre" paint is temporarily available for sale!



It's Children's Day and what do most of us (children) love most of all? Balloons, Lego, and everything that is colorful. We believe that this is the best timing we could pick to put the "Spectre" paint on our store shelf for a limited time. Last time players could acquire this paint, was during our last Winter Holidays celebration. It is a rare opportunity you're getting here, so don't miss it!



The paint will be rewarded to you as a gift, upon buying the 4th, the 5th, or the 6th X-crystals pack in our in-game store. You end up with both X-crystals and a rare paint. If that's not an advantageous deal, I don't know what else it is.

The celebration along with the special offers is scheduled to end on the 4th of June, at 5:00 UTC.

Special Offer – Double X-crystals!



Your favorite special offer is back, guys.

The double X-crystals special offer will run during this weekend (25-27th of May). Upon buying any of the available X-crystals packages in our in-game store, you will additionally receive 100% of the amount as a bonus.

The offer works for Steam and prepaid vending machines.

Attention! This offer will not work if you still have the first buy or any other account bound special offers. If you never bought any X-crystals before, you will have to use the first buy offer first, and only then you will be able to use this one.


The special offer will be removed on the 28th of May, 5:00 UTC.

Have a nice weekend!

Tanki X Development Roadmap for 2018!

Greetings tankers!

We're happy to present to you the Tanki X development roadmap for the next half a year. These tasks are subject to change in terms of implementation order, but in essence, they will remain unchanged, meaning that they are taken into development. We want to be transparent in our plans and will try to cover the development process as often as possible.

Please keep in mind that the development of the game in 2018 is not limited by the plan below. These are just some of our main focuses.

The main focus of our development team for the next couple of months will be:
  • Improving the game experience for both new and veteran players;
  • Fixing the current matchmaking issues;
  • Balancing the weaponry;
  • Optimizing the game.

The development plan



Battles
  • Reworking the pre-battle lobby. Some of the first steps towards that will be making only the weaponry and equipment choices visible to other players (with the avatars being visible as well once they're added).
  • Bonus points for an uninterrupted series of battles played, where each battle played will earn players bonus points. Breaking the series will result in the bonus being reset.
  • Deathmatch will return to Matchmaking.

Weaponry and Equipment
  • Weaponry balance, including fixing the Mammoth/Thunder combo problem.
  • Further development of the module system. An accurate and consistent balance of the current mechanics. We might even see resistances being implemented.
  • A slight correction of weapons parameters, aimed at creating more pronounced roles for different combinations and the possibility of constructing comprehensible builds.

Important! Any modules, weaponry, and other equipment balance will be done taking into account the resources invested in them by players and the effort they put into upgrading them. We will compensate it necessary.

Items
  • Deconstructing/recycling the surplus of blueprints, with the possibility of getting different blueprints in return.
  • Implementing a rarity gradation system for all the in-game items: Common, Rare, Epic, and Legendary.
  • Reducing the number of containers with items that are for sale and reworking the item drop system. Only 3 to 4 containers will remain in the free sale, which will have different levels of value/rarity. They will work differently than the ones we have now. Once this change will be ready to be released, players will be announced in advance, so that they can have the chance of buying any desirable items before the changes are implemented.
  • Releasing the avatars, along with a rarity system and different ways of obtaining different avatars.
  • New paints, graffiti, and XT skins.

Other
  • Improving the tutorial for the newcomers and adding video guides.
  • Improving the current premium system and the sales/special offers system.

Things that are currently being discussed and are under a "?" mark.



The implementation of the following tasks depends on their complexity and the allocated development time. If some of them prove to require complicated changes to the current system/mechanic, they can be postponed or canceled.
  • The possibility of having players create their own private battle and make it available for matchmaking (this would mean that they will be able to select whatever map and game mode available they want).
  • The possibility of being able to create private battles with bots.
  • A PvE mode (Player vs. Environment or none PvP) based on the game history and lore, such as battling against bots in a scenario.
  • Adding additional parameters for the matchmaking selection.
  • The possibility of temporarily nerfing players when they are matched with significantly weaker opponents.
  • A new graffiti spraying system (something much less boring than it is now).

Developer's comment:
"When discussing solutions for current game problems and making decisions, we try to take into account our experience, player's opinion, as well as the interests of the project. Very often this doesn't come easily to us, because in a game, everything is interconnected and every change needs to be balanced with whatever functionality it is linked with or depends on, a lot of time to study the impact it can have on the economy and the gameplay. There are factors that are often preventing us from making the most desired changes in record time."


A message of gratitude

The administration of the game would like to express their utmost gratitude to users that are constantly reporting problems on Echo and on our forum, as well as those who take their time to write complex suggestions. Each of those topics most often than not starts a discussion thread amongst the developers and helps them better understand what the players actually want.

Please share your elaborate opinion with us on any of the above in the comments below.

Patch Notes 16.05.2018 - Spy's Blueprints Container

We released a new container with blueprints, for those who want to faster upgrade their Tier 3 modules. The container is called "Spy's Blueprints" and it contains 70 blueprints, that include more than 7 Tier 3 blueprints, and more than 5 Tier 2 blueprints.

The container costs 299 X-crystals for a piece, and 1199 X-crystals for 5 pieces.

You can find it in the Blueprints section of our in-game store.

Patch Notes 11.05.2018

In today's update, we added penalties for players leaving a pre-battle lobby. As a result of leaving a lobby, players will get the "Deserter" status and a certain number of reputation points will be subtracted, depending on their league.
  • Players will not be penalized if every player in the lobby has left and the battle was canceled. 
  • In order to lift up the deserter status, players will need to play and finish a couple of battles (the required number of battles will be displayed in your garage).
  • Players with the "Deserter" status will be matched only with players with the same status. 
  • Players cannot get the "Deserter" status in custom battles, not they can lift off the status by playing custom battles. 

Additional changes:


  • The rank restriction was canceled upon buying premium.
  • The "Rent a tank" special offer will no longer be displayed for players with a rank 40 or higher.

The "Freedom" paint - available only until April 30th.



Greetings, tankers!

We released a new paint today, that will be available for sale only during this weekend. The paint was released as an homage to Telegram, the popular (encrypted) chat that is now fighting for its survival on the CIS territory.

"Weekend Rush" - In-game Contest!



Hear ye, tankers!

In our first episode of TX News, we mentioned a thing or two about some up and coming contests that will reward not only the usual in-game items and currency but reputation points as well.

That time has come. We would like to announce the "Weekend Rush" which is like a bonus level in which you can earn reputation points and many other rewards.

If you're an active player but maybe not one of the best on the charts, this is a chance to earn some extra reputation points and climb to the top.

21:00 UTC, today, marks the start of this race. It is at this hour that our systems will start counting your results in battles in three of the following nominations:
  • Destroyer - the number of destroyed tanks
  • Flag Carrier - the number of flags captured
  • Gold catcher - the number of caught gold boxes

Between the 27th and the 29th of April including, your every kill, flag captured, and gold box caught will be counted, offering you a chance at winning one of the following prizes.

Here are the rewards.


* the 2000 reputations points fund in each nomination will be split amongst the top 10 players, depending on their contribution. For example, if the top 10 players have captured 20 flags overall, but one of them has captured 10 out of the 20, he will be rewarded 50% of the fund pool, which in this case makes 1000 reputation points.

The same top 10 players will also get X-crystals equal to the number of reputation points they were rewarded.

To keep it intriguing, the results of the "Weekend Rush" will be published on the 30th of April or on the 1st of May. with no intermediate results. The rewards will be then transferred within 3 days after the results were published.

Fire at will!
