So here's what I think after playing for a day. 1. The group idea isn't too bad, but needs to be more advanced and have more customization. 2. The battle options are just bad. I'm sorry but as of right now they are. It needs to be updated with filters where you can choose the maps you would like to play on, and the maximum rank of player that you want to play against.That way there are not too many imbalances in rank, and if not choosing the actual map you want, you have some random selections to work with. 3. The Missions button should go back where it was. Or at least have the star back in it's place when you're in a battle. It's hard to keep track of your progress on missions when you can't pull up the info inside the match. 4. The Battle list is alright, maybe a non-pro list can be added as well like before in addition to the matchmaking system we have now. It's nice to browse what battles are available, and if the idea of filtering your options in the battle system is added, then I could really get into having my preferences locked in and having the game do the searching. For example. If I wanted a specific battle, I would click one of the buttons ( CTF, CP, DM ) that would open a window where I could then adjust the max and min rank of players in the game, (maybe like the slider for creating matches) and then select types of maps I would like, say...Sandal, Sandbox, Serpuhov, and Bridges. Then I could confirm the options and it would then bring up the waiting page it has now, and now the game will try to find one of these maps with the rank constraints. As it is now, I have no idea what equipment to use in a battle if I don't know what map I'm playing. I think those are all my thoughts on the update. Keep it going.

Some ideas off the top of my head. Please like this if you want some of these ideas too. An Overdrive that makes all teammates heal gradually over a minute of so. For those times that there are no Isida on the team/at hand. Maybe about a quarter as effective as the health supply. Just enough to stave off heating damage and freeze. For those moments when you have some breathing time behind a wall and you know that you don't have enough health to survive the next shot to come at you. An Overdrive that brings back self-healing for Isida. Same approximate time as supply Overdrive. For the lols you can call it Vampire. XD An Overdrive that lasts 15 seconds and allows you to drive/ghost through other tanks (both teams). You can still be shot and killed. Maybe to make it fair you can't pick up gold boxes while in the mode. It can be called Phantom. Maybe an Overdrive that is charged when you get killed. When full, you activate it and (A) you immediately blow up with a massive radius and with damage equal to or more than Magnum. (b is almost the same as A, but you blow up when you get killed the next time after activation. Great for sacrificing yourself for your team in goldbox piles and for those games when you are getting owned, be it in Team Battles or DM. It can be called Kamikaze. Maybe an Overdrive that makes all of your teams weapons and hulls the next Modification for a duration of about a minute. So if you have M2 you get M3 stats, M0 and you get M1 etc. It could be called Hardware. And my final idea is an Overdrive that when activated, stops the enemy from re-spawning for five extra seconds the next time they die. not at the stage where you're a ghost but that moment before the camera goes to the re-spawn point. It could be called Jamming. And one more is an overdrive that can be activated in the time the camera takes to move to your re-spawn point, that will re-spawn you where you died.

I think that the current system is good, though I liked when you could cheat finish first battles by creating a battle with one player per team with the flag limit as 1 on Island. :rolleyes: On to the real topic though. As daily missions now require you to play in server created battles to complete them, I've hit upon a problem. Sometimes there just aren't enough battles of my rank to complete missions. As a Major General, the max rank I play against is Marshal or General, because after that they have access to M3 and it's not worth using all those supplies just to keep up. But the main problem is that for example, I have a mission now for 500 xp in DM. I have scoured servers 2-12 for a DM battle but are literally none. Not one. I would propose having the system create new battles every minute and have players "flag them down" so people can pick the type of battle they require. Of course, I don't know how feasible that is, but that's the first thought that popped into my mind. So that's my contribution. Hope it's valuable.

Small problem I have that irritates me. Sometimes I'm playing a match and then in the last 5 or so seconds my screen freezes. So being concerned that I'll lose my crystals I wait more than the remaining time. Then I reload and end up in the next game and no additional crystals from the match in my account. now, I'm tempted to start screaming "hacker!" immediately, but I'm wondering if the problem is on the game's end or mine. Though I would go with the hacker option because it's so convenient that at the very end of the match people "leave" and the battle fund goes to the remaining few. It's happened about 20 times in the past few months ,but as this is the second time this week I thought to mention it now. Also I was wondering if there could be an in-match report/kick button for those annoying players that push you of the map and in general deliberately hinder the team. And have half the team vote for the player to be kicked before they are actually kicked.

Ugh! Do you mean to tell me that I'll only get 10% back??! That's so low. couldn't they just halve the speed of healing? that gives me like 10 hp (in older settings not this ten 100 thing they have going). I like vampire rampages. :unsure:

Hi, not sure if this is a problem or if this aspect was removed along with the re-balance, but my Isida is not self-healing. It damages opponents, and heals allies, but if I'm damaged and I empty out the bar and I'm not being shot at, I still don't self heal. tried emptying my cache and refreshing the page but that didn't work. As I'm also here, a separate thing I wanted to mention was that the download client for Tanki is for Windows and I have a Mac. Is there going to be one for mac soon?

I hate you so much... And I'm barely joking... The amount of doubt that I have about the final answer is unbelievable and to think I narrowed it down to two options and I KNOW one of them was right. I nearly went crazy Thanks a lot for that dude. I hope it was worth the hour of time and sanity lost.

can I put in multiple answers? I have two.

I think I have it but it's one of two things. Question is, should I punch in the numbers or letters?

True, most times I played the map something like that would happen however that's mostly the players' fault and not the game mode. I did have about a dozen matches that were well and truly fantastic. I'm not talking about dominating the other team comfortably (which is sooo boring, and kinda mean), I'm talking about real teamwork where we all decided who's best or fastest to capture the flag, and then three of us would go in with the flag guy and then split up and attack from different directions. a lot of the time the flag guy would deliberately drop the flag as a feint and charge in and take most of the rail fire and mines for the guy behind to pick it up and capture. :D True story. The other game modes don't require that lvl of teamwork or commitment and if you're red and you want to win, then you have to team up. Really it provides incentive. You guys think we can make a poll or petition to have the mode added permanently to Tanki, or maybe to Tanki X?

It is a USB keyboard, is there any way I can modify the keys so they aren't so grouped? And what kind of keyboard would you recommend?

Brand says Lenovo, not too sure about the quality of keyboards and mice.

I have noticed a problem with shooting backwards. When I reverse and then shoot I can still shoot, but when I reverse and turn then I can't shoot. There's and opposite problem as well, if I reverse and shoot it's fine but while I reverse and shoot I can't turn. I have to stop reversing to turn, same thing with turning and shooting and then trying to reverse. It seems that one can only do two of those three options at the same time.

great work i just skimmed through it cuz i have to play :) but it's good keep up the good work

i don't know if it's am or pm and i live in south america so i won't know what time it is
