10 Things ONLY Tanki Online OG's Remember!

[@Lingeroni]

literally just the ambiance from the maps and noises it made are nostalgic.

[@bappy316]

I’ve been playing for 6 years and i remember i didnt sleep for three days to get m1 firebird and i was always impressed by yellow railguns

[@cybernit3]

Ya, I started around then too about 2016-17; thanks Taspens for showing far back had no idea what it was like. When I started I used Rico but didn't do that well then went to smoky did a bit better. Lol...my 1st acount was wrecked like 0.76 kdr...so made a new one; now I am above 1.0....like 1.2 kdr. I should be higher but playing too much siege with smoky viking ruined my record..... I noticed campers or good juggernaut players have like beyond 2 kdr.... makes me feel newb.

[@cybernit3]

Ya, I sort of like that by color you know the rail strength. All I remember rail was killing me a lot back when I started, smoky and rico didn't have much a chance. The key in this game per MM game choosing the right protection and immunities is key, 1 messed up and it will make your game very hard. With rail and armadillo it maxed it is way easier now, and I play with wasp/defender is a good combo for CP game mode.@@FruitUproot

[@LuminousCatt]

Wow that sucks...

[@preffler]

Remember all

[@doppelklinge9494]

yellow railgun was such a big flex back then coz only a few people had it

[@goodfella7t67]

I have been playing Tanki Online for over 10 years. I remember all the things you mentioned in the video. Back then, it was extremely difficult to acquire a new rank. I used to play with my little brother, and sometimes we would argue when we couldn't catch a gold box. It was boring to wait for another one, and even if it did drop, many competitive players would emerge to block you. However, now it is too easy to acquire gold boxes, and no one seems to care much about it.

[@K-kof2000]

It's just that 1k crystals is an irrelevant value for Legends.

[@periodtthatson3582]

Dropping goldbox gave me ANXIETY ifelt it in my stomach when it dropped, everyone was waiting it was so iconic. Goldbox videos got millions of views, i really miss that era:(((

[@xp.wesley858]

Generalissimo being max was Tanki's peak, but actually Marshal, was originally the final rank. Even says on the Wiki.

[@sneaky_killswit9972]

True I my dad played during this time, and something a lot of players don't know is that after marshal the next max rank was field marshal not Generalissimo only after field marshal was max rank Generalissimo became the new one

[@xp.wesley858]

@@sneaky_killswit9972 Field Marshal Commander and Generalissimo came at the same time

[@loydbh9872]

I remember watching creators as Claudiu, Oufa and pauliusdaone. Man the memories…

[@bobblenidenisovich2216]

Claudiu's XP/BP and OUFA's goldboxes 🥲

[@nousername_david2369]

As a person who used to be a tanki online player since the first couple weeks, and quit a year ago, the nostalgia really does get you going. This game made my childhood, and wish the old, non p2w tanki came back

[@baphometasmodeus36]

Respect to you, legendary OG David o7

[@doppelklinge9494]

tanki nowaday sucks. OP Overdrives, OP gun-variations (back then variations intented to change the playing style of a weapon and not to make it stronger), OP effects like getting stunned, losing your buffs etc, and OP drones (although they nerfed them some time ago)

[@dsmaazlive]

One more thing, there used to be kits, like for 50k you could get an m2 kit with a paint and on purchasing that you used to get some free supplies. Osaka kit one i remember with isida. The green effect for twins was so good 😭♥️

[@herobrine1847]

Around 5 years ago, I was saving up for a kit as a non-buyer. I think I accrued around 100k crystals at the time. Then I stopped playing for about 4 years to focus on school. When I returned 1 year ago, to my dismay, there were no kits available to purchase for crystals anymore, only tankoins.

[@vertun7937]

I remember tornado, i think it was railgun m2 and hornet m2, ehhh i miss old times

[@trollkachu3744]

I remember seeing the railgun and hornet xt and hoping that some day i would get to buy it. That day never came.

[@adsz]

They were in challenge last year :/

[@vivaHSR]

I think theyre referring to the og railgun xt and hroent xt, when they werent skins @@adsz

[@adsz]

@@vivaHSR oh, gotcha

[@athanasg.1936]

Awesome video. I remember how I used to get VERY anxious about catching the gold box, it was actually unhealthy for a child to get so ramped up about a game, but a gold box was a gold box! I really liked reminiscing of sll the things you mentioned, I just loved eveything, but I still like playing Tanki periodically, currently I'm playing hard again, liking it a lot!

[@herobrine1847]

Haha, yeah now that you bring it up I vividly remember feeling my adrenaline course through my veins when I heard that gold box siren in the hopes I would be the one to catch it against all 19 other tankers. Ofc I rarely caught any but it was a thrill.

[@QuanticEagle]

I've been playing this game since early 2010, I even managed to enjoy the first world cup event at Tanki and how they progressively increased the amount of crys a Gold Box had during the event. And just seeing all these things gets me nostalgic, I really miss the shot effects of some turrets changing while upgrading. And that og isida that was op af

[@stripedsupremes9258]

Duuuude the custom little banners made by Tanki when you were loading in to servers or battles that would say something like "Do not share your account password" were always neat

[@FonixTO]

HOLY THIS IS THE PERFECT TIMING FOR THIS VID. JUST WHEN I CAME BACK! I Remember all things from this video :)

[@TheNamesShad]

Ong back then when I was in low ranks, I'd get so hyped on seeing a purple railgun shot, and even more when I see a yellow one. The sheer sight of an m3 hyped up low ranks, because of the unique skins. Only m3 hulls had the blue lights in front, and that was one of the main reasons I wanted to have one so badly. I remember grinding hard to buy ricochet mk0, which had a price of 1800 crystals at the time. You only used to get 50-80 crystals per battle. The progression was absolutely fun (Apart from a lot of things).

[@redpilledmenpowerment705]

throwback to when there was no yellow shots but it was red on m3

[@Alexander_-bg3cm]

I cant remember when I started, but it was around 2010. I remember buying my first M3, which was hornet. (I was mainly an XP player.) But if I were to think of an OG thing it would be something simple. Such as the old loading screen. When it use to be bullets flying across the loading screen. I also remember that cause my computer ran slow sometimes so they looked like they were in slow-motion. Much love to my OGs out there and best of luck to the new folks.

[@mrorrr7284]

First of all og will remember that isida was built in vampire nanobots Also there was event every day with helpers that you could participant if you are lucky to get in quick that was so good

[@krad5169]

I think one thing you forgot to include, is the parkour gamemodes. They were actual parkour back then, it was hella fun, but now it's just druggers flexing their XT skins

[@briandurant1109]

I really miss this game

[@rextro-gaming]

Nostalgic hitting hard, but my favorite time of tanki was 2015 - 2019 where matchmaking was actually good.

[@FonixTO]

How did you say this 8 days ago lol

[@leejuseop3693]

I remember 2018-2019 being the worst year for Tanki tho

[@FonixTO]

@@FruitUproot Bro was living in the past and went forward in time 🤣

[@rextro-gaming]

​​​@@FonixTO The video was actually public 8 days ago when I was scrolling through taspens channel and was the first person to watch it He probably uploaded it last week and than made it private but I happened to watch it early

[@FonixTO]

@@rextro-gaming Oh lol

[@TheMolman048]

I really miss the old maps with the secrect rooms. like Barda in 2015 under that 1 bridge there was a maze where you could jump in. And in the map Osa you had to climb over the trainrail border to get in. That's was for me the best time period of Tanki Online.

[@herobrine1847]

HOLY SHIT I forgot about those secret rooms.

[@Abdulghani_CT]

Red Alert XP BP was amazing

[@lincolnshen4778]

i only started playing in 2022 so i don't get any of the og stuff that you talked about but i still like the way the game is right now hopefully i get to play this game for 10+ years and share my memories with new comers

[@ninjapirate123]

No way, you only started playing this game in 2022, I started in 2015 and had so many memories

[@ninjapirate123]

how old are you bro

[@bobblenidenisovich2216]

Nahh man u missed the gold days of tanki online

[@Crewmew]

The shot effects were definitely the most exciting things to look forward to. I remember when I bought railgun m1 and m3, I was honestly shocked that I finally had something powerful and the color looked amazing.

[@Zaary]

i completely forgot about the server selector but now i remember that it was an insanely good feature

[@zach_zach5898]

What a blast to the past. I'm going to spend a bit of time tomorrow just seeing what the game is like. I remember getting diamonds was super slow and I would grind the f out of any event where boxes of diamonds would drop randomly in a map. It was in 2012 or 2013 and it was the 1st online MP game I played. Man I hated how paintjobs increased resistances to certain attacks and to 11year old me they were expensive af.

[@aceshigh3051]

If you played tanki before the rebalance in december 2012 you're a true OG

[@saad-wo3kb]

One more thing back then in some time around 2015,2016 if u bought a modification for a turrent or hull u would automatically get a discount on all m's available on that rank and the discounts would increase as u bought another modification till 70%

[@sliceds]

i still remember when the vlogs were introduced, used to watch it every week for years lmao

[@rahulsingh-yf8kc]

Nothing is forgotten from my side Still look for Old tanki Vibes

[@ZivOfficial]

I've started playing 10 years ago, in 2014. This video brought back so many old memories... Gonna do a binge on old TO videos now lol

[@Info-Marius]

You need to include the rebalance, at least for me and the people around me was an insane moment

[@GoldsCatcher]

Tanki online was assuredly one of my childhood back in the days... Although it has changed a lot currently.

[@kirylrabushka8260]

Only the OG’s will remember, but very early on Gold Box with 100 crystals would drop without a warning. Probably back in 2009-2010. Every time the gold dropped, my heart would start to race

[@jerryyys2129]

playing for 14 years i am litreally crying rn so much nostalgia

[@EscapeTheMatrixRightNow]

I remember back in the day you didn't have to spend money on creating a pro-battle. It was free for everyone. You could choose whethere or not threre would be drug boxes in the game. I was so fun! Also my favorite map in Tanki Online was Gallery. Such a beautiful map

[@vedantmemane1673]

Back then the in-game economy was crazy,ror f2p players having m1 equipment was a feeling of such accomplishment!! And supply usage especially in the lower ranks was restricted to the buyers mostly. Also loading times were crazyy long ,and having to open the garage,in a battle took super long. I still remember my beart racing, everytime i used to hear the Gold Box siren blaring! Watching cladiu,OUFA,Mr.Thunder,GhostAnimatorTO And a lot of tanki youtubers for not only the awesome gameplay and gold box montages,but also for the absolute banging EDM music!!

[@tankeryy1566]

2011 to 2018 players here, most memorable moment i had is when i upgraded my firebird to make it flames become color violet and the time i caught a 500 crystal football-themed gold box Edit: blue flames not violet

[@danielh.5116]

2013 player here😢 RIP to the old tanki

[@hikari4483]

i remember in my first account i used to rent and buy paints only and i was like warrant officer with only paints and not even a single m1. And i liked how a turret/tanks looks changed when u upgraded them

[@abdurrafae.16]

You missed the OG of test server and. It's craze

[@Yacinebbg]

One of the most fun updates tanki added was secret rooms , you cant go wrong with them while searching for them and trying to acess them.

[@EscapeTheMatrixRightNow]

I remember when I got my firebird upgraded to M3 :O it was before the rebalance of all turrets and hulls. The flame was blue, and for M2 the flame was purple. So beautiful. I was so sad when with the new texture update the blue firebird was no more :(

[@kingmndargus9367]

I playd this game (2010 /2023). And this is soo nostalgic... I remember that tanki good old days... Fcking money will runing game now... Back then in old days if you get m3 turet and m3 hull and Generaliso rank you dont hawe to woryy abaut,, beter tanks“. This days...Only ewents bring me back to game. Ty for nostalgic memories Taspens.

[@Ivory207]

i remember renting a railgun augment for a few days, i think it was large calibre rounds, interesting mechanic

[@Pist3l]

I’ve been playing over 10 years I don’t know a game more og than that of og TANKI online the noise the effects the skins everything

[@bobblenidenisovich2216]

This game meant the world to me back then,Madness goldboxes was my best thing ever 😢

[@lusion5480]

You missed that even before the Legend rank, the highest rank was Marshal. They only added Generalissimo in 2012 I believe.

[@acidize55]

It didn't stay for a very long time, and it actually isn't that old, but the system of Shards where you would be able to get a currency called Shards by watching ads or doing missions, and if you got enough shards, you could get a container

[@UmerFarooq-gq6hh]

In older days Marshall was the last rank before they added the 3 more ranks till Generalissimo.

[@legendaryking8952]

2:25 looking at the prices to change missions reminds me how crystals used to be valued way more

[@alinzamfir4923]

Ive been playing since 2010/11, back when freeze, richochet and thunder were not even in the game. I have three good things most OGs forgot. One thing most OGs 100% forgotten is that turrets and hulls used to have no change in skins in relation to the upgrade. m3 dictator looked the same as m0 dictator. Another thing most OGs forgot is that DICTATOR used to be the FASTEST hull, faster than Wasp even. Yet another thing most COULD remember is that you could climb up walls with RICOCHET or THUNDER by hitting the ground. It was OP on maps like Combe, Brest, etc.

[@phantomd5844]

In the old days Shaft didn’t have the red laser pointer. That was added around 2016-17

[@kareemodeh2550]

i can't believe that i have been play it since 2011-2012

[@thegoblinsglen]

So good! You got crystals for signing in and then you found these blue boxes with either xp or crystals in them. I don't remember if it's 1 or 10, but I think they still have them on lower ranks. I definitely remember the paint protections but they were so hard to get! Honestly I think they should have capped the ranking at Legend.

[@Southeyyy]

I remember when Tanki would give you a lot of crystals if you hadn't logged in for a while back in 2010 -2011. I would play for countless hours and not get bored. Catching gold felt very rewarding too back then.

[@The_Hakaishin_Saiyan]

The thumbnail 😭❤️

[@CrystalCyberTankz]

Jesus christ. So much nostalgia in only 8 minutes and 6 seconds

[@pacolara3684]

Taspens..I wish you could have or find images of silence 3 and 4 (which had several arches at the top and you could jump over the red team very easily) They are very good memories of clicking and clicking to enter a battle together with friends. There was a program called clicker, which clicked on its own, you set the time you wanted it to click until you entered the battle. Thank you for bringing back so many memories.

[@notyash0p]

Im playing tanki from 7 years and i remember the change of shot color after u upgraded it from m0 to m1 m2 and m3.

[@omaritwan]

The sound effects too are nostalgic. Thanks for the video Taspens, really brings me back.

I’ve been playing since 2011/2012 and I didn’t even know that Tanki had a pass that let you use supplies without wasting them. Btw I remember that one Smoky XT video from a decade ago where the guy is using Dictator and « In Love » paint I remember click-spamming on the last place available in a battle that I wanted to join in case someone left so I could join fast Btw I totally agree with you, it was so hard to rank up back then. I came back to Tanki last year and I was A Generalissimo with like 98k kills, and nowadays I see Legends with 10k kills Thanks for this video, you should definitely make a part 2 👏🏼

[@wotdragonracer5624]

I have one: back when augments required a specific level to unlock and depending on the level you would have to pay a certain price. Like the first rail gun augment was 20k crystals (the shot stabiliser one I can’t remember its name)

[@krad5169]

been playing since 2013, 11 years, i still play sometimes, game defo evolved lmao

[@syedanonymous]

almost every m2 which had shot colour in low rank was so good and having in your team was almost everytime win

[@PyroYeet]

I played as a kid for aaaaaages and only ever reached warrant officer 2, I quit around 2014 I think idk

[@boldizsarpuspoki933]

i remember i play this first at 2012-3 when i was 11 y.o. I miss the old tankiii 🥲😭🥺

[@phoenixyoutuber6616]

M1, M2, M3 was the best thing ever, it looked so good and it was fun to play back then. But now it is literally an event, if the event is fun I would like to play or else no motivation.

[@GabeOstberg]

I remember when hornet released and it was the most op hull I also remeber tanki X, im so sad it never came to be sadly

[@Rnzlr]

The Premium Mac & Cheese paint protection (only available while you paid for premium) - initially the devs set it to 20% and everyone complained it was too much to those that had it. Then the devs lowered to 15% and increased the damage output of the turrets. Those same people who complained the protection was too much now said it was garbage because it offered no real protection at 15%. Go figure. I miss original Smoky - instant hits on target, the high impact, and the only turret to deliver critical hits all rolled into one. I wasn't there when Shaft came out and didn't have a beam.

[@RebbyAivazian]

I wish the devs will bring back the Gifts feature someday. I remember back in late 2013, in my old account, I sent like two "Thumbs Up" to an individual to cheer them up. I think this feature was very useful back then when you want to send an important message to your friend even though they are offline. That "Individual" in question haven't been online for years now and I even remembered they sent me a gift as well as a response to my message on one of the gifts I sent to them. Stating something like that they have been busy with life and Tennis stuff too. I hope they are okay still.

[@astreixohh7025]

I knew all of these stuff. still watched for the sake of old tanki. it is so sad what happened to the game, the game was all my childhood. when I enter the game these days I just cant play it..

[@MatthewHackett]

Everybody hated the update where they separated paints and protections initially because they completely screwed up the prices of everything including kits

[@Daniel-Davies-Gonstead-Student]

I was so hyped when I got the blue-shot M1 rail

[@agustinalca]

2:04 OUFA THE GOAT

[@nahidbepari5459]

Well it was a fun time playing this game, personally this game was one of my first destinations while going to the journey of discovering the internet, so i have special attachment to this game 😊 , unfortunately i so busy with life now can't really play anymore, but maybe someday if the still exists by then ..

[@khalid961]

Ive been playing over 10 years and it was acc so more rewarding to rank up back then.

[@FR_slimshade]

On Rio if you set it to parkour mode and space you can get behind the second largest building and see it was actually just a sprite,and at one corner you can clip out and get kicked out the match,it doesnt work anymore i think

[@danielvargas6005]

ive been playing since 2010 and recently quit but i might give it a second try even tho the game has gotten so scuffed

[@_rubyrose]

I remember Isida used to shoot out electric bolts instead of that weird beam they fire nowadays, It also used to suck out the health of the opponents and give it to you if you're damaged, Which I thought was pretty badass!

[@bobblenidenisovich2216]

Yea it used to be electric until the late 2013 update which revolutionised the graphics of the game

[@vibertparis1837]

Thank you kind sir.....now I remember why I loved playing this game❤❤❤❤

[@michal2696]

4:00 I think back in the more older days the max rank was Marshall. Then they added that 3 more ranks to Generallisimo and then the Legend rank, but i'm not 100% sure

[@omiecrockett3630]

Probably your best video

[@nothanad234]

RU1 was the best server, especially for xp bp mode. I used to play until reset and get like 30-90k crystals,depending on if i had premium

[@randyops5246]

I remember i play Tanki since Shaft was born. Every game have no lag, no dead body blocks your shots or your way. I love the new HD graphics of the game compared to old ones but the the game mechanics was so simple and better than today. I hate they just destroyed Isida. Isida was the best support and also a Vampire. Now you have to get Vampire nanobots to kill and not healing anything with 1hp or to get support nanobots for healing but poor damage and no life steal/self heal. And another thing... with Isida you could easy get a top 3 with the masive xp gain.

[@exodus9669]

I cant remember what it was called, I think it was called the tornado kit and it was m2 hornet and m2 railgun with the spark paint, I wanted this kit so badly lol The paint just worked beautifully with the turret and hull (especially with the purple m2 railgun shot), also I personally enjoyed the m2 versions of equipment more than the m3 since the m3 ones seemed over done sometimes, and also it was such an aesthetically pleasing difference in design going from m1 to m2. Repair kits being absolutely busted was also a very OG thing.

[@awakebs]

I haven't played this game since 2020, it was a great fun journey especially events, making youtube videos and whatnot. Hahaha it was my first online game that i enjoyed so much. Probably u must know ABDULLAH GMR, i had my channel with this name. Ahhh good old days 😊💜

[@ondrejveres435]

also i really enjoyed the models of turrets and hulls themselves being tied to your upgrades. i always looked forward to upgrading my tank so i can drive around in an upgraded looking hornet :-))

[@PJ3.6.9]

Taspens, is it possible for you to voice out to the tanki team to somehow bring back the OG madness map?

[@periodtthatson3582]

Ahhhh i can’t believe i’m saying this but i actually miss the old tanki, i forgot that i used to play HOURS in Hill and Silent for crystals but mainly for FUN now i only play if there’s a skin in the challange that i don’t have:/

[@LONDON.ENGLAND]

I miss playing polygon CP and noise CTF. Team work was actually needed back then

[@thethunderwarlord1703]

man old tanki has like 0 time to wait and it was hell to get to custom matches

[@RuglinTO]

I remember in noise when people were in the red team they were using magnum and isida all the time I raged so much from it lol

[@sliceds]

also remember the moon silence map with different gravity settings? That was considered O.G in 2014

[@ajwisniewski133]

That intro brought so much back
