Wow! Although I also like abstract games like the previous versions, it looks really great now! I’m in love!

Nice game!

I can’t wait to see the tutorials!

In particular, I’d like to see how you handle matchmaking and replication of game objects.

Yes, me too! I am very curious how the environment is made.

I believe @sumygin is planning on writing a blog article explaining some of these things.

Froze & crashed when I shot someone, roughly when the shell hit the enemy tank. Haven’t been able to reproduce

Cool game otherwise! I love the camera work, feels really nice

This is a most excellent game, glad it’s back!

Is the helipad skybox used in any material in scene? Since it’s not rendered for the skybox, I’d say a smaller one, in file size, could produce mostly the same lighting and help with loading times.

Well spotted, @Leonidas. As it happens, all DDS files on the server are not being served with gzip content encoding for some reason. If @sumygin fixes that, it should roughly halve the DDS file sizes.
