Greetings, tankers! Better wear sunglasses – this weekend is thrice as lit. Let's talk about the beta, the first season and a new radioactive weekend.
Welcome to the beta
As you know, we released the alpha version of our server on October 9. "Wait, we're still in alpha?" Yep! It's been quite a while since then. Since the release, the server has been worked on continuously. Some of the changes are very noticeable, while others happened in the backend, like performance improvements.
In the last few weeks, the server got more updates, bug fixes and stability improvements than ever before. We're now transitioning into the beta stage. The final release doesn't have a set date – it will happen once we've decided the server is ready. Development takes time, and we only have one developer.
The first season
To mark the beta, we're starting our first season! It begins a new season cycle instead of continuing from season 19, where the original game left off. This is because we want to reuse the old graffiti – it would be a shame not to see and use them, right?
The reputation system has been reworked and is now fairer. It is similar to the original, so it's now easier to rank up in the lower leagues than in the higher ones.
Because of this, we're partially resetting reputation. Nobody loses all of it, but it is decreased across the board, and the highest reputation anyone starts with after the reset is 4500. You can learn more about the season rewards and the reputation reset in the updates channel on our Discord server.
Radioactive weekend
To celebrate these changes, we're announcing a radioactive weekend and a 50% higher gold box drop chance! Starting right now, tank speed is increased by 50%.
We hope you enjoy the season start as much as we will, and have a great time fighting for the top.
Thanks for playing, fire at will!
