In this episode, we’ll be reviewing the latest updates. We’ll also be announcing the legendary “Capture the map” tournament, and giving you fresh news about Overdrives.
With the server restart at 02:00 UTC tomorrow, March 15, a new update will be released in the game. The changes include Google authorization for your Tanki browser version account, and fixes to how groups work in matchmaking.
Groups
Recently, we’ve been observing frequent cases of sabotage using groups. As you know, a group always fights against another group. But unscrupulous tankers began to exploit this mechanism, deliberately seeking a situation where a group of inactive tankers fell on the opposing team.
In this update, we're going to make matchmaking changes that should prevent this exploit from being used.
Authorization Changes
Many players have been unhappy about the fact that accounts registered through the Google service on Android cannot log into the browser version of the game.
Now we have the solution! Authorization via Google is now available in the browser version of the game.
Click on the G + icon when entering the game, select the desired Google account and continue playing.
You can also register via Google in the browser version, and then continue to play on your Android device from the same game account.
Important: After you log in to the browser version of the game through your Google account, go to the settings on the Account tab and set the password. The password is still required for authorization on the forum, help portal and the “Gender Wars” website.

BREAKING NEWS: The Men’s faction is being humiliated by the Women’s faction in the Gender WAR.
This month’s themed WAR is Men vs Women.
As of writing this announcement, the Women’s faction aren’t beating the Men’s faction…
No…
They are literally ANNIHILATING THEM, wiping the floor with their puny little tanks, crushing them to bits, and then vacuuming their sorry wrecks to dump into the backyard dumpster.
Then again, it’s Women’s Day, so maybe the Men’s faction are just being respectful.
It remains to be seen.
The WAR ends on March 28th. Are you doing your part for your faction? Will you get your animated paint?

==========================================
Tankers!
The new Challenge starts tomorrow (March 2nd).
Throughout your quest, you’ll be collecting some great rewards, including thousands of crystals, loads of supplies, batteries, paints (both animated and regular), gold boxes, containers, shot effects, Premium, and other goodies*.
* The complete list of rewards will be available shortly on the Wiki
As always, you can access rewards from the Silver Tier for free, including the final prize — Shaft XT.
Or if you want even more rewards for your efforts, a Battle Pass (available from the Shop) will unlock the Gold Tier for you, where the Hornet Legacy skin awaits. It’s the perfect match for the Legacy Railgun skin that you worked so hard to get in the February Challenge.
And remember, now you can also purchase the Battle Pass bundled with Premium, which gives you double Stars for every battle you complete!
Finish your Challenge with half the effort with Premium, and claim all the rewards with a Battle Pass.
So, log into the game tomorrow and start collecting those Stars. The first stage only needs 10 Stars and will bring you the cool Aqua shot effect for your Ricochet, or Dark Moon for Freeze if you have a Battle Pass.
Today, we’ll be explaining how the increased gold drop frequency works. We’ll also be talking about the upcoming March challenge, and discussing further tweaks to the game’s balance.
