TankTrouble Online is in development. If you dare you can try the test version - look for BETA! When TankTrouble Online is ready to be unleased, everyone can play online and it will be free!
BETA is a test site were TankTrouble scientists test new inventions. Currently scientists are developing and testing TankTrouble Online. If you dare, go and give online battles a try!
BETA is currently open for everyone so you don't need a membership to enter. That's why TankTrouble is currently not accepting new BETA Members.
Laika is an automated, Russian space dog, and as such she has been trained to a high level in the fine art of destruction by the scientists. You can find more information about Laika in the news section.
To get the achievement, not only do you have to beat her 10-0, you have to it without dying too. Good luck!
Those tanks are moderators whose job it is to remove spam and obscenities from the forums, whilst still maintaining a friendly environment in which people can chat.
Be active on the forums, don't spam and keep the content of your posts clean. Please don't ask to become a moderator; if we decide we need more moderators and believe you to be the best candidate, we will ask you!
Laika has only been programmed to use the laser, so when battling her you cannot activate other weapons. After all, we wouldn't want her being too destructive, now, would we?
We hand out these cool hazmat suits when crises are imminent. If you missed the last one, fear not; in the underground TankTrouble laboratory we have several, old nuclear reactors from the USSR.
When the old Scrapyard reached 999.999.999, it ran out of digits. It started to behave most abnormal and revealed secret backdoor codes. When added to the URL after www.tanktrouble.com/? these codes unlocked odd, glitchy tankcessories. We have fixed the Scrapyard now but we left the secret backdoors ajar. We cannot tell you the secret codes because they are ...secret! Ask around on the forum, dig in old news, fish about on the Internet; the codes are out there!
...alright then. We'll help you out some:
Hint 1: Name of the inventor of the Death Ray.
Hint 2: The date of the very first news.
Hint 3: The location of the secret, underground laboratory.
Hint 4: /?todo
Hint 5: The other animal besides Laika that resides in the underground laboratory.
Hint 6: /?whosthr
Hint 7: How many times did Laika orbit earth? (check the very first news)
Hint 8: Your all-time favourite space dog!
Hint 9: /?calc
Hint 10: /?snf (Sheep 'n' Fences - a game on your tank!)
On to the super secret backdoors - these are really hard:
Hint 11 + 12: Examine the polaroids in the news from 04-11-2014 closely!
Hint 13: Equip snf (Sheep 'n' Fences) on your tank and score 50 points.
Hint 14: The first 10 codes each reveal a secret word. Write them all down in order.
Hint 15: The scrapyard scientist once sent postcard... (search the news)
Hint 16: Roll two sixes!
Click on the small "?" on the login box. Then you will be asked to type your username or email and shortly after you should receive a new password by email. Of course this only works if you registered your email address when you signed up. If you didn't, sadly there's nothing we can do.
This phenomenon is a mystery to the TankTrouble scientists. We have been trying to swat this bug for quite some time and with no luck. So if you are one of the dizzy tank operators please help us and report to laboratory@tanktrouble.com.
Meanwhile we suggest you try:
Click on the maze with the mouse.
Press all your controls again, one at a time.
As a last resort, restart your browser.
The scrapyard is the total number of tanks destroyed worldwide. It updates instantly whenever, wherever a tank blows up.
To add friends (and foes), you both must log in on the same computer at the same time and battle each other.
People that post with this avatar are the admins. They rarely post so keep an eye out!
Look out for trips and tricks on the forums and search YouTube for guides on how to blow up this mean machine. And also, practice makes perfect!
Instead of releasing the shoot button, you must hold it down for as long as you dare to unleash a fury of mini (but just as deadly) bullets!
Unfortunately it seems some web masters aren't nearly as fond of destruction as we are and therefore blocked our website. Sadly there really isn't much we can do about that. We suggest you start a riot, take some prisoners and demand TankTrouble unleashed! While waiting for that to pay off you could google the web for other sites that host TankTrouble.
Go to the garage (the wrench at the top of the screen), then click on the wrench below your tank. Now, indulge in cool swag.
At certain times of the year special colours are made available for a limited time. Look out for such occasions and grab yourself a new look!
The TankTrouble scientists work from a secret laboratory hidden deep underground in the cold Siberian wastelands. The Russian government is relentless in their efforts to obliterate the research facility and the Internet connection is as stable as a game of Jenga in round 102. Under these circumstances developing TankTrouble is a hazardous undertaking and updates are risky business.
