"Notifications are messages that show up in the middle-top of the screen when something special happens in the game.

Trivia[]

  • There are currently 52 possible notifications in the game.
    • There were formerly 83 notifications in total, but 31 of them were removed due to the removed content/features.
  • The notification “The game crashed, refreshing page to recover from error” was found buried inside the game's source code before it was seen in-game.[10]
  • If you kill a tank, then they are immediately killed, then they respawn immediately, the “you’ve killed” notification is present on your next round for a few seconds.
  • Different notifications have different colored backgrounds.
    • The "Arena Closed" and "Full team" messages are colored deep red.
    • Mode notifications are colored deep blue (except for Sandbox's God mode).
    • Any team-related messages are colored in the team's color. (The neutral color, which is shown when Dominators are being contested, is yellow.)
    • All other messages are grey.

Footnotes[]

  1. The Brown team was replaced by Green, & no longer exists in-game.
  2. These kinds of notifications only take place in Domination.
  3. The message is the same for both teams, and only differs in the background color of the notification (which corresponds to the team color of the player), thus there are two possible notifications.
  4. These kinds of notifications only effect a single person.
  5. Doesn’t appear in FFA / Maze if the victim is twenty or more Levels below the player’s own.
  6. These notifications existed before the March 9th, 2017 update, where auto maximizing of stats was replaced with the introduction of stat upgrade queuing.
  7. These kinds of notifications only occur after becoming a certain kind of tank.
  8. These notifications only occur if an out-of-game condition has been met.
  9. The U key was later used for another function, so it was changed to "I".
