I think this is a brilliant upgrade. With all the changes to the turrets and over drive, the fire power is overwhelming. Anything less than a Mammoth, you are dead meat. Players will have to consume more of their supplies to survive the onslaught. A good move on Tanki’s part to make more $.

I stopped playing TankiX because of MM, you had no idea how long to wait. I only like to play certain maps, and the matching algorithm is poor. Once assigned to a team, I know whether the team will win or not based on the team list. In TankiX, you lose points if you lose a game. If you leave the game, you get punished. I mean, we are not in grade school. Playing game should be fun, not like living in a communist country, for crying out loud. I think it's time to look at other games like fortnite…. I have not have play Fortnite, yet. But it made $223M in March alone!

Oops! Did not scroll all the way to the bottom.

Hasn't the developers learned anything from the last "test"? I like to choose tank, turrets etc to match the map. I like to choose the map I like to play. In a world where there are more, and more choices, Tanki is determined to take choices away from us. This is like going to a multiplex theater, you do not get to choose the movie you want to watch. Instead, you are assigned a movie by the theater.

"Ding Dong The Witch Is Dead" But will it return.....

This nightmare will end soon.... It's just a dream... just a dream..... I will wake up and everything will be fine again. It is just a dream................

Just realize the reasons behind this Matchmaking idea: - Tankionline is doing it best to discourage people from spending endless hours on playing silly games. - Tankionline is encourage us to spend our time on more productive activities. Like spend time with family. - Most important, Tankionline would like to discourage its users from spending real money on silly things like paint. I would like to thank Tankionline for this social services. So, everyone, you should spend time with your family. Spend that $10 to treat someone with an ice cream cone. Since there are over 240+ people in queue in every battle types. I am taking my dog for a walk now. TankiOnline, Thank You.

Another stupid idea!!!! Have to wait to get in a battle. I would rather go through all 20 servers to find a suitable battle. Does anyone at TankiOnline understand UI/UX?

I understand balancing. The trouble with this model is I spent X crystals to buy an item with specific functions and features. For example, I purchase an item for the speed. Then, Tanki slow it down for re-balance. It is like after buying a pair of washer and dryer. The vendor came back 3 months later to increase the capacity of the washer but it will take longer to dry for the dryer. This is done to re-balance the entire product line. There must be a better way not to make us feel like being cheated. Tanki could offer compensate if it alters a feature to be less powerful than what was purchased.

How come I feel like Tanki is running a scam? Tanki is offering discounts on purchasing or upgrading turrets, hulls etc. I spent my crystals thinking I will get better protection or more fire power. Then, come the “rebalance”. It took away what I have paid for. This is like ordering a double cheese burger and an order of fries. After you paid for your burger and fries, the cook decided to re-balance the meal by taking away a slice of the cheese and half of my fries. What is the point of upgrading knowing it is going to be taken away in the near future? It is like I have 5 apples, I pay for 2 more apples. Thinking I will have 7 apples, But Tanki takes away 4 apples. Yes, I did received the 2 apples I paid for, but I no longer have 7 apples. Trumponomics?

There is a lot less players than before. That is for sure.

There are always players who would use tons of drugs during play. Good skills along with sound strategy and effective tactics, drugs are only necessary in critical situation. Each player needs to evaluate and decide how much drugs should be spent. Does it make sense to spend 1000 crystals worth of drugs to earn 300 crystals? From my experience, the best players make about 1000 +/- crystals, at best. In most cases, it is just in the hundreds or less. The only time a player could make a lot of crystals was back in the days when there was no time limit. There were battles that lasted 2 - 3 hours, top players were able to earn significant crystals. But those days are long gone. : ( Tanki is in business to make $. It will make decisions to maximize ways to make $. However, there literally hundreds of online games out there. Players should decide whether Tanki is still worth playing. It seems users opinions are no not valued by Tanki. I stopped providing feedback or filling out surveys, knowing it is just a waste of time. Tanki will do whatever it wants. I will keep playing until it time to move on. Tanki is not the only online game. After tanks, I think I will try war planes.

The New Year Map is boring....

Normally, I would take advantage of the discount. But with bundled micro-upgrade, I need to figure out whether it's worth it. There are parameters I do not brother to upgrade. Now, it's all or nothing..... I might go with nothing... Have some time to think about it.

I do not care for this bundling of micro-upgrade. I only upgrade the parameters that best fit my play style. This is a lot like the cable TV. I have to pay for 500 channels, just to get the few channels I wanted. : (
