The game cant be this bad...

[deadmanrising 715]

I come back after 2 years and find ....

 

 

- You cant invite people to your battles anymore unless you AND your friend are willing to shed 4400 crystals every month (this simple logic defiles me)

 

- You cant join battles anymore unless you shed 4400 crystals every month thanks to the match making system (again this strange logic is beyond me)

 

Although now that i think about it, its kind of the community's fault this has happened, they kept complaining about how they had to join unfair battles, now an AI is doing it for them, irony indeed

 

 

- You cant create your own maps or invite your friends to take part in events unless you AND all of those people shed 4400 crystals every month (im starting to sense a very familiar pattern here)

 

And you people actually applaud the developers for making these pointless changes? I've seen models like this before, and you all just fall for their trap? Hahahaha

 

 

It seems the developers have finally lost their minds, this game is nothing more than a scheme and a side project (Hey, they admitted it on their website) to pocket a bit of extra cash on the side while they work on tanki x (after 2 years of beta testing, yipee!)

 

Most of these changes just force you to buy pro battle pass to enjoy what the game was before (im being 100% serious!, nothing has changed! Only thing thats happened is the unnecessary features!),

 

Anyone using the match making system clearly hasnt got a pro battle pass, this game has clearly lost its magic, no it will never change, network traffic will just continue to fall until when the devs cant make any money off their side project, they will pull the plug and call it a day, flash is dying anyways, html5 has taken the web by storm

 

 

 

 

 

 

 

 

The games best moments ill never forget was between 2012-2013, game went to after that

No entirely true.

 

You can not complete missions in Pro-Batttles, so if you want to earn weekly chain rewards you need to play MM, even if you also own a Pro-Batttle pass.

 

Save enough golds from container rewards and it is worth it to buy the Pro-Battle pass just to drop the golds to yourself for income.

I know that, but now pro pass seems to be the only way to enjoy what the game used to be from when i left

 

Besides did people react positively to these changes? If so im probably wasting my time, since people who hated it probably left

[Maf 32,300]

While most of your complaints have some truth in them, your main argument is that the PRO pass is too expensive. So since you've been away for two years, I recommend you play the game for a while and get a feel of today's game economy.

In the past two years we've had:

• Permanent 2x increase of mission chain rewards
• Permanent 20% increase of daily mission rewards
• Addition of containers to weekly chains, which can give you things like crystal packs (up to 1 million), days of premium (double funds and 2500 extra crys every day), gold boxes (which you can catch and drop yourself)
• Mission chain never goes down if you stop playing. Ever.
• Increase of battle funds

So if you just look at the numbers, all you need is the two rewards of week 1 and week 2 in order to pay off the cost of the PRO pass. Or just a single reward of week 5 and above. And that's just one week for a whole month of PRO pass. So compared to how many free crystals you are given, it's safe to say that the price of the pass is completely reasonable.

It's true. Now you can't see 40K players online at the same time. It was the case like 2 months ago. But the last stupids, dumbs, brainless update forced a lot of players to leave.

 

[Rhythmic 80]

not to mention that passes were 5k across all ranks

[TaffyTank 1,890]

And you people actually applaud the developers for making these pointless changes?

So you haven't read the announcement topics on most updates then?

[Maf 32,300]

As for the other issues you raised - they've been discussed many times already so I won't repeat myself. To summarise:

• MM was added to modernise the game and make it appeal to new audiences
• Devs said on multiple occasions that Tanki X is far from being an independent (let alone leading) project, so their main focus is still on TO.
• If you can't accept these changes, you are welcome to buy the PRO pass and play custom battles just like the old times. Like I said above - the cost of PRO is negligible compared to the amount you can earn in a month from battles and missions.

1. MM actually works really well for me now. The battles have felt tough mostly and more even than they used to. No more battles of 10-4 players. My clan even made 2 groups of 3 and joined at the same time and ended up on the same team.

 

3. The Pro pass is paid off after 2 days of playing missions alone. If you play any other battles you will pay it all off very quickly. The cost is negligable

[Maf 32,300]

My clan even made 2 groups of 3 and joined at the same time and ended up on the same team.

I agree with the rest of what you said, but this part is wrong. It's not a good thing that you managed to get your whole clan on one team when you were in three groups. Unless the other team also had three groups of equal power, then MM hasn't done its job properly and didn't distribute groups into separate teams like it should have. I've been in multiple battles (and seen plenty of screenshots from others), where one team had one or two groups and the other had randoms. Needless to say, the team that has the group demolishes the other team in 9 out of 10 battles.

No one is forced to play, let alone buy anything from Tanki Online. One can always choose to turn off the computer and proceed live a fulfilling life.

can you stop leaving stuff out?

 

when they increased mission rewards by 20% they also decreased the chances to get crystal rewards from missions

 

permanent x2 mission chain rewards... yes it's x2 in terms of total value of crystals+drugs but when they added batteries they reduced the crystals and other drugs to make the total value you get the same as 2x but less crystals... so while the total value is doubled the crystals you get from the chain is not doubled.

 

 

he was talking about the value of Pro pass which has to be bought with crystals and not drugs so when you talk about increase rewards to comepnsate for the cost of pro pass what he cares about is the crystals.

I was going to mention the crystal reward chance reduction, but forgot. My bad.

 

I'm skeptical about the reduction of crystal and supply weekly rewards in favour of batteries - where did you get that info? Even I wasn't told anything about it, other than the fact that batteries need to be added to the reward tables on wiki.

 

I know he doesn't care about supply rewards in this case. I'm also only talking about crystals.

To prove that to you i compared the updated RU wiki mission chain rewards to the EN not updated mission chain rewards and... oops, looks like they increased the crystal and drug rewards when they added batteries. crap... I noticed the difference and automactially assumed tanki decreased the crystals and drugs instead of increasing... so now it's actually more than 2x.. I'm sorry

 

this is embarrassing :unsure:

wait no!! I think the devs have gone. I noticed that for week 6, 7, 8 and 9 they decreased the crystals and drugs you get but for week 1, 3 and 10 they increased the crystals and drugs you get. weeks 2 and 4 stayed the same.

 

so when they added batteires they increased everything for some weeks and decreased for other weeks.

For 2 days after the update of mission with batteries the mission chain value were lower, then they increased it at the level of now.

It's more like natural selection. Everyone who hates them quit the game. The only players now are the ones who can sort of cope with them.

So, this was right after restart, so not many people were on, which might be why it worked. We did win both, but just by a few CP points because the enemy was busy racking up a good d/l while we capped. My d/l was like .4 or something and it 6 non legends playing with 10 other legends, so it felt like we had an uphill battle and just got lucky

[fordmustang12345 3,910]

MM failed completely imo, half the time I'm facing a team of complete noobs who have no idea what they are doing, the other half I'm facing groups of M3s and M4s who (by judging their co-ordnation) are from a clan and are using Skype or something like that while my team is being slaughtered
