Height just helps you to catch the gold from a position on the ground, before a tiny Wasp can climb on the bulk of tanks and grab the gold from above you. But then neither Titan nor Mammut will help you then.

You are right, but that argument would lead to a shutdown of everything you know :p It's not about "can be abused" it's more about "how hard is it, to abuse something, and is the effort of abusing it bigger, then the effort of just doing it the right way". Another thing: in the past we had daily gifts, and the income from them was part of our weekly crystal income. Now the missions are here, but .. not loved at the moment ;) So will we get a free gift again if we don't do a misssion and still log in? :) If not, will we get a higher battle reward? Because if not, it's kind of inbalanced.

ty :)

The question that I have, is if Tanki would accept proposals for missions that can not be abused that easily, but still draw the players in frequently.

Enjoy, stay kind and clear, and .. speed up your life a bit :P best wishes ;)

not my fault - they forced me to! Nah kidding :P -238

In that case it's best if the player him-/herself contacts the chat moderator Administriation via PM. They sort things out.

absolutely I'm with you, that the amount of time must be "ok", and that 45 minutes are way to long for a single mission. Maybe I have no time on one day and can barely squeeze in some 15 min to keep my chain up (else the chains have no use any more). If the missions are designed in a way, that in 15 minutes of gameplay you could complete one mission and almost complete another (like cap 2/3 flag + get 3/3 boxes) it's perfectly ok for your chain today and makes it easier on your chain tomorrow. This would be a great deal. But.. I am not the designer, I'm just a player like you ;) I think.. ..missions should be a _reason_ to come here on a regular base and to spend time here, having fun while doing so. You should be able to complete at least 1 mission per day withing 15 min of gameplay. There could be a bonus for free players that like to invest more time (free players pay the game with their free time) by doing more missions. Missions should not feel like a daily chore that makes me feel like work.. because then the players will sooner or later quit the game.

If you have doubts that the 200/box points margin is too high; then it's maybe because of your rank. We could have the point limit adaptable by the rank of the player; this would make sense. I actually can't imagine issues to find battles with 5..6 people per team, in order to fullfill the "cap flags when both teams are at least 4" criteria. Please remember that it is called "mission" not "free gift". So you have to do something for it. The closer the missions come to your personal preferences of game mode and gameplay, the more fun you will have there (fun is key to liking the game). But it's still something you have to "do". It's not like playing ClashOC by clicking on the goldmines once a day.

I like your text about the Wasp, as it reminds me of the days, when my well crafted Wasp M2/M3 matched your well crafted words. Unfortunately those days are gone.. no speed.. no agility.. :( But please keep the text, it's a nice read and reminds of good old times ;)

Flooding is banned for a reason - It blocks the chat from being used what it's meant for. Those flooders block the chat for all other players that might like to talk to their friends; so what happened was no censorship but just something to make the chat work again and to remind the players of the rules.. Criticism is best placed right here in this section, as the dev's read here. If someone writes a negative post here, and it's mature and non-insulting while still direct and on the point > and it get's hidden > then you can talk about censorship.

The whole point of missions and mission chains is to get the players to play every day for a certain time. Don't let em forget the game.. keep them in. Keeping players in is cheaper then advertising for new ones. Of course 2h per day are too much.. while 5 minutes per day are a fail too. Maybe 15min per day/mission are perfectly fine. I absolutely agree to you, that the missions do not pay off any more. You waste more drugs then you get.. or if you don't like to use drugs (like me) then you have to play a game mode that you do not like. Therefore I completely stopped to do my missions yesterday. I don't want to spend my "fun time" on something, that makes no fun to me. Therefore I am so curious about the explanation in the vLog.

The most of the battles out there are more then 4vs4 anyways. Sandbox is a 4v4 map but usually players stop to cap flags if the teams are not at an even size. Having this kind of mission would actually increase the fairness, as players are more motivated to wait for a smaller team to fill up. And I guess you take more then 3 flags in a "whole day". If you think it lasts too long, then decrease the number of flags or boxes per mission; but keep up the principle. Because it will work. If you just want to go back to a "5 minutes Tanki per day for 4000 crystals" experience, then I doubt that you will get that.

I'm truly nosy about tomorrow's vLog. I guess we get an explanation on the reasons behind this very disliked mission update.. and I wonder if the reason will be "because solving missions in pro battles was abused all the time". It's always tough to force players into playing game modes that they do not like. IMHO the better solution would have been to make the mission completion a little bit more tricky. Check the spoiler for examples. but maybe the reason was completely different anyways.

That's actually the wrong thread to as such questions... but as you are new to the forum I doubt you will find your post and the answers, if your post is moved. Find your answers below ;)

As an April's fool event the garage you drive into, could give you some random equipment, which you have to deal with for the next 5 minutes :)

Players that just played occasionally, had the chance to earn the crystals for the pro pass by doing some few missions. Abount 2 missions per week per account were enough to earn enough crystals for a pro pass per month. By this update you cut them off from playing pro.

my M3s are already converted now; it's too late to make use of the update

ty ;)

Thanks for all the updates, they are nice.. ..except the one, that let me finish missions only in non-pro battles from now on. Sorry, I play 99% pro battles most of the time.. and you in fact locked me out from having any more mission progress now. I'm simply not interrested in playing the game with drugs; and if I join a drug battle I feel like a mult (because not using drugs harms my team). And now I _have_ to do this, because of the update. What was the intention behind the update? To make the mission completion harder, or to boost the number of non-pro battles? If it was the mission completion, then I would apriciate it, if you could find another way to reach your goal. Still, thanks for the rest ;)

With an 1/100 chance your tank will not shot, but a giant banana will pop out of it :) ..and of course some queeky sound effect
