Come on Tanki, put buttons back: player would be happy, it is not a big change for programmers ... is a win-win situations ;)

don't be so pessimistic ... for example TO did something to reduce drugs impact's (no more 2-3-4, no more 70% discount), they put english subtitles on youtube video, ect. ect. You must remember one thing: TO staff have more informations than you, me and others users who read the forum: they have statistic from hundred of games with thousands of users, and they know what's happen. don't forget that tons of player never reads the forum, so we are only a small percentage. The real 'playground' is on the battles, TO staff know and we don't. we will see -- Andrea PS: I see you are interested on this thread, you wrote a lot of post ;)

hehehe, no need to be rude, it's a videogame :) -my first tip. Put again the 4 buttons for select the kind of game, so every player could see only the interesting games (for him, of course). Some player love CTF, some player love DM, ect. ect. and if someone want to see all kind of battle, they simple would press all the buttons. Easy, in my opinion, and no one spend money, and no one have lag, and no one have something to complain. I really hope TO could consider this options. -my second tip. Generally, price (in crystals) are very different from low rank to high rank. For example, M0 turrets cost less than 1000 crystals, M3 turrets cost 20000 crystals (more or less). Same for tanks, same for low rank paint and high rank paint. Did you noticed the difference ? from 1000 crystal to 200000 crystals, it's 200 times less expensive !!! I think PROpass could have different price for different rank: why not ? 5000 for one month is really a big amount of crystals for low rank player, but is cheap for me (and highest rank than me). One good 'price range' for one month PROpass' could be: 50 crystals for low rank, when a player increase his rank also the price increase more and more, until you became one high rank and you pay 5000. Why not ? I hope TO could think about this, I hope they don't forget about low rank player because they could be future hig rank player my 2 cents :-) -- Andrea

this is my opinion about the updated battle list: -now is more easy to get informations about every single battle, GOOD -I always wondered 'why you show me a battle whom I can't play ?', now these battles are gone, GOOD -I liked the buttons which select the type of game: I always press only the CTF button because I play only CTF and I don't care other kind of battle. And it's useful especially on the busy servers with a lot of battle ... why TO delete this opportunity ? BAD -private battle only for PRO users: may be it's ok but TO could change the ProPass price for low rank. M0 are cheaper than M3, low rank have less crystals than high rank, etc. etc.:TO should decrease the price of one month PROpass for lower rank before this update. BAD just my 2 cents -- Andrea

hehehe, it's me ! actually I don't like smoky . But I like your giude, well done. +1 for you

I did ;)

hi,I read your post and I have an opinion about this. For first, I like what you wrote, because you try to explain your point and you did very well. Now I try to reply, I hope you read this. Your complaint about supplies are true: we all see lot of battles where players with more drugs will win.I have something to say about this, I try to explain myself. During the last months, TankiOnline start to manage this problem: they introduced 'smart cooldown' and since then we don't have '234' anymore. and a few weeks ago, TO deleted the 1000 drugs kit with 70% discount. IMHO it's a good idea, TO started to do something against 'druggers'. BUT ... but ... they can't do more: why ? because players who buy drugs (and lot of players buy tons of drugs) spend 'real money' every week. I know ... everybody (me too) wants a free game, but server cost real money, programmers cost real money (I am a programmer !), designer cost real money, etc. etc. Last thing: please don't call TankiOnline 'greed' ... they don't deserve it. One example ? every day http://tankionline.com/ have thousand of visits, but they don't put advertising (Adsense for example) ... and IMHO it's a good behavior. I hope someone read this: may be lots of players will disagree, but at least a few would agree Andrea (from Italy) PS: I am also a buyer, but not a 'drugger' ;)

I read a lot of post (not all the thread ... 39 pages ! ); I think that lots of players they forgot about one point: Tanki Online is a game about Tanks ! for many of them, play TO is collect crystal and wait for gold box. it's not ! And I am glad with this update because now you can see lot of players (I am talking about CTF) wander around the maps ... without know what to do :-) It's time to learn how to play: if you join a CTF battle you have to play and fight, defend the flag ,kill enemies, help your teammates, try to capture the enemy's flag. TO is a fight game, and now you must fight: what's wrong with this ? someone thinks it's not funny anymore ? please leave and go play angry birds. Andrea

ho modificato il pulsante, ecco il risultato

hehe ... nice thread, I am not alone :-) I am 46 years old, I am a programmer and I play video games since tetris was created ! And I own a computer until I was on my ' teen, my first home computer was Commodore vic 20 on 1983 and I had my first internet connection on 1994. Andrea (from Italy)

+1 for you, I like your post. I agree

I like this update: IMHO TankiOnline is about a fight between tanks, hulls and turrets. Actually I play CFT all the time, and I hate all whom join only for collects crystals and ignoring the battle , the flags, the team mates. Now you join, you play until the end, and you get the rewards; and if you have 2 kills and 28 deads, you will have nothing. you mark my words: TO is about tanks, not about crystals Andrea

I don't think so, low rank players still have another option: they will play in low rank battle. they play until the end, and they have rewards .

please ... stop complaining about crystal campers on high rank battles. When high rank players creates battles with a big range of rank admitted, what do you expected ? I saw tons of battles with rank from Generalissimo to ... very low rank, every day. People who created this kind of battles could be more wise, it's useless to complain on the forum. Andrea PS: of course no offence to you, I am talking generally PS: forgive me for my conjugation of verbs, my english is not so good :rolleyes:

nice post. sometime I did the same, and I am not from russia :-) IMHO there is no point to fight 5 vs 1 ...no fun, no crystal , no final reward ! usually I wait for more players and I ask to my teammates to do the same agree . I never did something like this, and I hate when even my teammates do the same.

I wonder which kind of names for ranks more over than generalissimo ... something with stars ? or planets ? galaxies ?

+1 I have the same doubt ...

you wrote Grandiose ... where are you from ?

nice video: good editing, no endless fighting scenes, a lot of suggestions ... well done, you did a great job. And you added english subtitles, good idea. +1 for you. You could be one of the winner . Good luck !

Already linked. Thanks again for the crystals :)

well said. I have another thing to say: there are NO ads on this game ! I like very much, because some ADS are very annoying ... How many visitors everyday? how many unique visitors ? did you know that ... with ads TO would get lots of money every months but they didn't. Also, they didn't write two different kind of account: one for buyers without ADS and another with ADS for free player ! I appreciate this behavior so, when I buy crystals, I am happy to support this game .

yes, tons of player does things like this :angry: oh yeah, I hate this style of 'fight' and the boring boom boom boom boom boom boom boom boom boom boom ..... Andrea PS: I am a twins player ... but I don't have this behavior

I like this two sentences: -So when people tell you that dreams don’t come true, tell them to sod off- -always remember, skills can be learned, but passion is a gift. So if you’ve got it, use it- absolutely true. I am more older than Semyon, but I thought the same. When I was a kid, I started with my home computer and , from the beginning, I loved programming language and I loved to write programs. And now I am a programmer, and I love my job ... and this is great: I see every day tons of people whom hate their job, and this is very bad.

hey, it's a great challenge for people not "english mother tongue" ... 20000 it's a little reward :blink:

nickname shouldn't count (like someone already wrote) , but generally ... good update . Well done TO ;)
