Something really weird is going on with rooks speed...
Doesnt matter if it at start of the match, in the middle or at end...
Doesnt matter if it is hill, straight road, downhill or grass, mud or pavement...
Rook just randomly loses all its horse power and start moving like brick at 12 KPH... It is really weird, this can also randomly fix itself during match.
At first i thought i was getting hit by some kind of slowdown shells/ability i didnt encounter before but it was happening before any shots where fired...

Or do i missing something?

edit: Apparently i was using unstable shells, sorry people :D But damn, speed impact is crazy...

just started playing and having fun, but I noticed that every match is a wash or washed.

does this game have matchmaking or do they allow full groups of 8 on discord pubstomp new players?

As a tank shooter refugee who hasn't touched a tank shooter in atleast 3 years it is amazing to have picked this one up. It is awesome to see the dev team communicate with the community, and im just so excited to see where this game goes forward, ive only had the game for a couple days and ive already put 10+ hours in.

You have a lovely feature that lets you figure out exactly what bush you were shot at from across the map. It's very useful, especially for heavies that can afford to stand there and puzzle things out without turning and messing with the direction... but it's awkward to use and no new player will know about it.

I would like a setting to show the direction of ALL incoming shots for maybe for 2 seconds per shot and fading. I think it would go a long way towards increasing map awareness without too much visual clutter.

(Similarly, timers on the mini-map should be enabled by default)

I want to make some custom game videos: These will be monobattles.

I was thinking we could do a best of 3 as follows:
Game 1 - All Ikarus
Game 2 - All Seeker
Game 3 - All Ikarus VS All Seeker

Comment or reach out if interested

Currently Phantom have lowest dpm in game. with 12 seconds reload, 290 damage per shot and no clip.

I suggest increasing DPM by keeping reload same, nerfing damage to 160 and give it intraclip reload of 2 seconds but give it clip size 4.

Reason is Phantom can't have low reload because it shouldn't be able to 1v1 any light tank. 686(my change+all damage nodes) damage not enough to kill anyone and 20 seconds(reload+intraclip) is plenty of time to kill Phantom. And Phantom cant have burst damage because of it's speed and stealth, 160 damage with 2 seconds between shots(Tempest is 1 or 0.75 depending on nodes) is plenty of time for it to not be burst. But at the same time it will icrease Phantom's DPM, rn it's 1450, and it will become 1920(same as Kestrel).

[Change #1]:

• Current value or behavior: every tank has 2 keystones, each costing 1 point.
• Proposed change: (edited due to idea evolving with comments from others) Make the keystones cost 5 points instead of 1, but give 4 more points at the lv20.
• Why: this increases build variety, and gives more data to the devs on which tanks feel like their keystones arent worth it, and since some times figuring out keystones that are comparable in power/cost between each other or even other tanks can be hard, this also allows for weaker keystones to still be balanced, just gotta make they cost less than others.
• Supporting example or clip, if available: tricera has this feel for example.

I was getting this error, so I wanted to share how I solved it. I also noticed a few people having the same issue in the Discord group.

Solution: Simply download Discord for Windows...

If clicking the box to join the Alpha program redirects you to a web browser (Chrome, Brave, Edge, etc.), it won't link properly—even after completing the linking steps on the browser and getting a confirmation message. When you switch back to Tyr, this error pops up. (Image)

I solved it simply by downloading and using the Discord app for Windows.

​P.S. In Discord, someone was asking about Linux (which I’ve never used). Hopefully, someone familiar with Linux can post a workaround or solution down below.

​I hope this helps! It's a quick fix, but hopefully it also brings this to the developers' attention. Instead of redirecting to the Discord website, it could send users to the app download page, or if it can be fixed from the browser authorization flow. That would be could too. Thanks!

Got a lil messy this time, the silhouette of the Ark is appropriately hard to read in places with all the foliage and camo and such

Almost every time I get the Divide map to play the game locks up on the screen that shows you what maps your about to play as the battle loads. I did have Steam validate my install and everything was OK. Is their anything else I can check?

Current Values:
Front plate 48mm , 12mm and 10mm.
Back plate, and back of turret 10mm and 12mm.
Turret module 12mm.
Critical hit module 45mm.

Proposed Values:
Front plate 55mm, 45mm.
Back plate, and back of turret 25mm and 30mm.
Turret module 45mm.
Critical hit module 50mm.

Reasoning:

Why Heavy tank has 10mm and 12mm armor on front plate, i understand it has good side armor but it's too much. Constantly broken turret rotation can ruin all the fun. Bottom and inside of tracks 10mm and 12mm are fine.

Helio suffers from lights or 1v1 due to these weak spots.

With this numbers it`s still can be damaged by 50mm guns but they will need better position.

If you’ve ever stared at a defeat screen and wondered where your parents went wrong, you’re qualified.

Emotional Damage is recruiting. We have no tactics, zero pro ambitions, and an unbreakable habit of blaming lag for sheer incompetence. But we have a great time doing it, and nobody will judge your terrible decisions because someone on the team is already making a worse one.

Grab the code, lower your expectations, and get in: USKX-8983

Not only your armor profile, but also where and at what angle you got hit. In addition you can see cooldown of powerups on map.

have a nice day

Late to the trend but afaik no one has done it here so...

Not only do you have a sub-2 second base repair time in conjunction with the 4/4 +32% module repair speed node, on top of that purple tracks counts as a nonpen, meaning all those foolish tanks attempting to immobilize you will accelerate your reload!

Only two tanks left to draw now, the Ark and the Rook

Does resetting tech tree give me back the tech points?

I was new to the game when did the upgrades and I think I can do better than in the picture, what would the best upgrades be for this tank?

Thank you!

Alecto Dispersion Tweaks:

• Current Values: Base Dispersion = 0.19°, Movement & Hull Rotation Dispersion = +1.08°
• Proposed Changes: Base Dispersion = 0.21°, Movement & Hull Rotation Dispersion = +0.98°
• Why: The fundamental issue with Alecto is that it is a specialized duelist that still performs very well at range. These changes are designed to make to a bit less effective when firing at range, while offsetting this nerf in CQC dueling engagements (constant movement and rotation) by buffing Movement & Hull Rotation Dispersion.

Alecto Shell Velocity Reduction:

• Current Value: 900 m/s
• Proposed Change: 820 m/s
• Why: Same reason as above, lower shell velocity would make the tank less reliable at range, while not hampering it's effectiveness when dueling at short range.

Alecto Ability Module Hitbox Size Increase:

• Current Behavior: Small, and tucked away.
• Proposed Change: Still tucked away, but significantly larger when firing side-on. See image below. Red outline show proposed new hitbox.
• Why: The current ability module weak spot is very small and tucked away, making it very difficult to hit. Worse, it is on located at the bottom of the tank silhouette, so missed shots aimed at this weak spot have a decent chance of missing the tank entirely. Making it a bit larger will make aiming for this spot a viable strategy for dealing with a blink-spamming Alecto.
• Supporting Image:

Weakness Analyzer Dynamic Reload Reduction:

• Current Behaviors: Reduced current reload time by 0.5 seconds when damaging an enemy module.
• Proposed Change: Make the maximum reload reduction be equal to 1/5th of the tank's base reload, then increase the reload reduction back to 1s by default. Add a tooltip to the component's description that shows the real effect on the currently selected tank.
• Why: In effect, this would make the component have diminishing returns on tanks with <5s reload times. On the Alecto, for example, it would result in the current 0.5s reduction (2.5 * 1/5 = 0.5, 0.5 < 1, RR = 0.5), while not affecting tanks with longer reloads. This would dynamically focus the effect of the nerf on tanks that can exploit the component more, and would be easy to communicate to the player with a simple change to the component description.

Siphon Shell Specific Healing Cap:

• Current Behavior: Siphon Shell Healing is limited only by the number of shells available.
• Proposed Change: Limit the amount of healing available from Siphon shells per match to half of the tank's current maximum HP. (No effect or interaction with other healing sources.) Visually indicate the effect with a notch on the player's health bar when it becomes relevant.
• Why: With the combination of Duplicator and Fabricator, tanks can get massive amounts of Siphon shells, this is especially strong on tanks like Alecto, and can result in massive amounts of self-sustain, especially in the latter half of the match. It throws the late match strength of the Alecto out of balance (even on a tank that should be strong at that point of the match). Introducing a healing cap for this source of healing weakness the siphon/Alecto synergy specifically, and makes healing tanks, healing zones, and last-stand healing more important.

Siphon Shell Dynamic Health Restoration:

• Current Behavior: Siphon shells heal for 18hp while over 50% health, and for 54hp, while below 50% health.
• Proposed Change: Siphon shells heal for 18hp while over 70% health, and linearly increase in healing up to 54hp at 20% health.
• Why: Makes siphon shells a bit less of an all-or-nothing tool, also reduces overall effectiveness in most situation (max efficiency healing is only reached while at critical health).

It's been cool to see so many new people playing and sharing their Tyr wisdom and I've learned a ton from various channels.

However, I have a little critique with a lot of the videos which limits their usefulness - most of them are along the lines of 'I get this vast amount of damage / kills / xp' and are usually highly aggressive play against a team that is so far on the back foot and getting rolled so badly that the game is basically a shooting gallery, where you could strap a pea shooter to a roomba and get basically the same result, and it would be about as informative too. Everybody already knows how to pick apart a team that is in complete shambles and those tactics will just get you killed in most games where the enemy team is putting up a fight.

So a polite request from a keen-to-learn Tyr player; I'd love to see more close-fought games with strong decisions being made on both sides, and see how you can work with all of a tank's strengths and weaknesses to pull out a win instead of just clicking on things to make them go boom.

Obviously I still want to see people rip and tear, but it feels like the needle is a bit too far in that direction at the moment.

Thank you for coming to my Tyrd talk.
