That is the norm for Tanki. Their developes are not capable beyond the basic programming and they do not have the knowledge to fix the bugs that we report. This is not something new. I remeber it happenning even before they implemented what in someone's demented mind is "MatchMaking". Like the idiotic change in the awards we get from missions. Now we get only 2 and one of them is 1 container which , of course, gives us nothing of value but useless paints or even more useless MK1 tanks that some of us have no intention of ever getting! I call that cheating and dishonest. Here is another expample of cheating and forcing us to buy stuff: You work to upgrade one of your weapons, you are 1 away from getting the next level, you rank up and now they force you to buy the next level at the FULL price and not the upgrade! Perhaps is not done intentionally, although, I highly doubt it, but you would think they would have fixed by now. Just like the unreasonable weekly mission of "of get 15 top 3 places in the winning team". Good luck completing that! So, in one of my account I have 2 weeklies like that! one for 15 and one for 7 which means I can only complete 1 out of the 3 weeklies! I am a recreational player and I do not play that many hours to even attempt to complete these missions, let alone the ridiculous "Special missions"! This used to be a great game, but now it is just trash.

Interesting that my posts that refer to Tanki developers as "idddiots and cheats" keep disappearing! Another great example of biased sensorship! Just because you delete them, it does not negate the fact that they are idddiots and cheats. Youc an keep deleting them and banning me if you want but I can always keep creating new accounts and still get the message across. If you have the guts and integrity to debate me, let me know.

Can please explain to me who was that thought it is wise to replace the crystals we used to get when Ranking up with containers that gives you uselss items like Lime Burst Piant? Another nice way of cheating us Tanki! This game is becoming more by the nanosecond!

Yeah, I had the same concern since I have a fully uprgaded Rico and I got an MK1 in a container. I checked and the upraded was still there so, as you said, we got nothing for that conatiner! I guess it would have been too much to put an "if statement" to check if we arleady have the item! More over did anyone notice that in the Dialy missions they give us now only 2 rewards instead of 3 and one of them is a container? Which in reality means that 99.9% of the time we will get either mines or speed boost to go with the other thousands we already have? I said before that I left right after the idiotic MM system was put in place only to come back now and see that the same idiots have come up with even more idiotic stuff! But hey, as long as there are even more idiots buying stuff, why not, right? Hahaaaaaa, Tanki fixing bugs? only if they knew how! (hint, they have no clue how to fix bugs that's why they are not fixed, ever!)

That is your biased opinion. My opinion is based on facts like 69 pages of complaints vs only 9 for compliments. All the things you listed will NT make the game better unless Tanki fixes the EXISTING issues. It is laughable to mention "improved physics" After 2 years absence, I can see very clearly that the physics have gotten worse. I see my tanks flip very easily without any reason, I see every time when the stupid flying tanks use the flying OD 99% of the time wind up upside down and many other that I will not bother list here. Of course your opinion will be biased and I am not expecting any honest comments. I made a comment earlier about that! they want you to pay for "ultra continers" only to get 3,500 crystals or worse yet as it happened to me with the containers I get from the "special missions" 99% give me 125 mines! That's why they will never see a penny from my money. Also you are correct not to expect a reply. Do you expect them to tell you that they are scamming you? This confirms what we already have suspected all along! I am not sure if Alternative Games Income is derived 100% from Tanki revenue or they have other business that produce income. Perhaps Tanki's contribution to the income loss is ever greater than what they let us to believe. It shows that these guys have no business acumen, as some of us have pointed out many years ago! I left Tanki 2-3 years ago, just a few months after they forced on us what they call "Matchmaking" because it was more of Mismatch than anything else and now I see it is still the same crap. It follows that there will be a negative impact on their revenue. Yet it is amazing that they continue their failed business strategy.

I guess you are missing my point here which is that this game has not changed for the better and it is even more crap than before! I couldn't give a rats ass about strategy as most of the battles I have been dumped on rarely last long enough for my OD to charge! besides I play very little to care. just making observations that perhaps will spae a poor soul from wasting their parents money!

You must be a coule of french fries short of a happy meal! Of cource NOT all players like balance! I am sure if you are a Legend you do not mind playing against Generals and Marshals! ( I know in my Legend account I love coming across lower ranks and beeting them up!) By the way, no one is asking to have the same items. If you really aggragate all the complaints this is what all we are asking: 1. to have comparable ranks in battles, 2. to have items we paid for not changed after a few months )either because of poor planning or just as a strategy to force people to pay more) 3. to have a chance to complete reasonable Weekly missions ( good luck if you are a non-buyer Marshal completing the ridiculous "get 15 time 3 top places in a winning team") 4. fix the reported bugs in a timely manner. 5. Not to be dumped in battle that ends within a few seconds of entering. Is it too much to ask?

This game WAS fun unce upon a time. Now it is not. That's why there are 69 pages of complaints and only 9 of compliments! I have been playing Titan in my other account for years and I know how to play it. Wasps bombs kills me all the time inside the dome and as I said it is the most useless OD since it is the only one where you are standing waiting for everyone to attack you! AT least they could have made the dome to move so you are not standing and they should have never taken the healing function out of it. I am not one to complain unless there is a reason. and after 2 years absence, when I see the same problems that are not fixed, I will voice my opinion. I play mostly World of Warships for 2 years and I have yet to find anything to complain! If you really want to see what a TRUE MM game is, give it a try. All battles start when all players are present and you never have more than 1 rank higher than you and the ships are like for like, so there is tremendous balance. Oh and I never had any glitches that affected my play! As fara as that stupid mission, there is no way I will clear it in the next 2 years or so since I am pitted against legents and I have 2 missions like that. 1 for 15 and the other for 7 top 3 places! In other words, I am expecting a 3rd weeikly like this so I will have no weekly missions to complete in a week. Perhaps they should rename them to century missions, because it will take that long to clear them,!

Me too! I "love" those country paints that I will never use! especially the ones I receive through the Ultra containers! Can you imagine to buy an Ultra container and get a usless paint? Is that a highway robbery or what? Good thing I do not fall for this and I do not buy anything! So far the Ultra containers that I got through missions have proved to be totaly useless as the most i got was 3,500 crystals (I get more from normal containers!) and mostly useless paints!

This guy thinks we are dumb? Evrything is OP he says? Take the Titan OD and tell me how OP iti is against all other ODs! It is totaly useless and offers no protection whatsoever!

The game is pretty much the same crap as before. Uneven teams, lower ranks against legends, dumped in to battles that end within minutes because it is so unbalanced and weekly missions that are impossible to complete like get 15 top 3 spots in a winning team( good luck with that!). Also, I noticed some unrealistic tanks, (floating, OD that makes them indestrcutible, and Titan OD is made even more useless since pretty much everyone kills me despite having boosted shield inside the dome and a Titan fully upgraded to the max!) All that makes this game even worse that it was before. Yet I see alot of people complaining about spending money on things than now are worth nothing! In other words nothing much has changed! I play for fun, I dont care if I complete any weekly missions and I never chase after gold. Oh and the funny things is Tanki programmers still cannot program anything if their life depended on it! every other game whneh I open more than 3 containers the 3rd one does not open and I have to exit the client and enter again! Oh did I also mention that many times after I change equipment when I come back to battle my tank is invinsible and I cannot move? yet I get a message saying I will be removed for inactivity! I have many other glitches I can point out, but I really do not care as I do not play much. I just check the forum to see that there are still fools parting with their money and then complaining!

It is fascinating that they blame the thieves when they are willingily hand them their wallets! as they say in my village: you cannot fix stupid! There are so meny warnings about that in the forums but they still make the same mistakes and then they blame the scammers for getting scammed! Even the Romans thousands of years ago said " Caveat emptor" "buyer beware"!

I admire you courage to write all these issues! However, as an pre-MM player, I can tell you it good that you documented all the issues but you just wasted your time since Tanki will do nothing about it. Like I said in ohter posts, I stayed away form Tanki from about 4 months after they implemented this joke of MatchMaking until now and I came back only to see that things have gotten worse! Yet there are some poor soulds that are so ignorant and willing to part with their money only to complain that later on their "investment" is not worth the price they paid since Tanki chnaged it and made it weaker! Only if the fools had read the comments in the complaint section! But hey, as long as there are suckers willingn to part with their money, Tanki will be happy to take it from them.

I have been away from the game for over 2 years and now I came back to check on things and I see that nothing has changed and everything has gotten worse! Yet ignorant people pau good money to buy stuff and then complain when Tanki nerfs everything and now they have to buy even more. I was going to write about this very topic that you mentioned since it is unfair to have this kind of weekly mission that we cannot change and worse yet, we do not not eve have a chance of completing it! I have several accounts below the Legend rank and I have 2 Weekly missions of Get 15 Top 3 and get 10 top 3 which I will never be able to complete as I am placed in battles against Legends and Buyers and I do not have any chance of getting anywhere near the top! Worse get I am getting dumped in battles that finish withing a few minutes of me entering so sometimes I have tough time completing the Daily missions let alone the Weekly. This was a problem 2 years a go and many players had complained but the idiots at Tanki still insist on keeping it there! We should be able to change the weekly missions but the dumb game designers hope they will entice us to become buyers! well, stupidity has no end in the Tanki organization!

Seriously? you want to spent money after they are ignoring you? Then you should not complain!

I remeber you from the good old days. I know you were playing the shaft all of the times and we played quite a few battles with and against my other account. I had shaft with Titan and back then it was fun to play. Titan used to be one of the best hulls abd now the OD is one of the most useless as it does not give any protection. I rememberwhen it used to heal inside the dome. Now if you have a Titan with OD and Shaft you are a sitting duck with the slow reload and a slow tank. For the life of me, I have no idea why would anyone give money to a game that has the most bugs than any game I have ever played!

I was here waaaaaay before this atrocious MM was implemented! The good old days where we could create our own battles with our friends and CHOOSE the maps we wanted to play and and see how much time was left in a battle and CHOOSE to join or not and we knew what kind of weapons and protection to have ahead of the time. Now you just get dumped in a meaningles lopsided battle with little time left and you have no idea what to expect and getting killed as soon as you enter because you do not have the right protection and what's that with flying and gliding tanks? Well this is the tanki messed up universe where a clueless person who thinks is a "game designer" makes all the decisions that no one likes! See, the game used to be fun, but became not so fun when they took away our choices! I mainly play World of Warships where it is a true MM system, every battle starts when all players have joined, you cannot join after the battle has started, you are matched against your rank or no more than one higher than you and after 2 years I encountered only one glitch that was fixed before I even submitted a support ticket! Good luck with that Tanki! But like I said, as long as there are fools who are willing to give them their money, more power to them. But players should not be crying and complaining when they know what they are getting into.

I left about 2 years ago and just came back to see what's new. from the comments, I can tell that nothing has changed and it is still the same crappy game witht he same crapy response. As a matter of fact it is worse than ever.(flying and floating tanks and crap like that! make the game even worse)! I played a few games using the HTML5 Client, got a daily and a weekly container, but it would not even open up! Nice, huh! I have an advice for those who complain about the developers not caring, wanted refunds, etc.: Stop buying stuff! it is as simple as this. If no one buys anything, they would have to listen or perish. But, as long as there are fools that spend their parents money, you deserve what you get. Before you spend any money, read the complaints in this formum. Then, If you spent any money, you have no right to complain because you did not pay attention.

You have not read an older post of mine where I explained the situation with the Tanki servers. It goes like this, the servers are located in Hazel Rah's barn in a small village where the connection to the internet is 1 string and 2 russian cola cans. Once and a while the server loses connection because his Mom takes the ethernet cable from the server to hang the laundry to dry. (if it is happening more often lately, it is because Hazel Rah happens to **** his underwear more often lately since that HTML5 thingy is not going according to plan). Also, in case you are wondering why errors take so long to fix, it is because Hazel Rah has to run around to find the "developers" whose main job is to tend the goats and the sheep. It takes time to go to the pasture and call them back to fix the problems. All this running around has clouded Hazel Rah's mind making him think that the dumb ideas he is forcing on the players is making the game better. In the mean time, the active players have dropped way below 10K.. Great job huh? a far cry from the 60-70K once Tanki had! Now you know the truth!

I love the Golden Antelope mission! Drop 25 Golds so you can get 25 Golds! Hahhhaaa whoever wrote this mission was either drunk or just plain dumb! What's the point of wasting time waiting an eternity to get into a battle only to break even?

Of course I will still be coming here to comment! It is free entertainment reading the comments of the frustrated noobs who spend good money on a bad game. Yes, Tanki used to be a great game in the past. After the MM went into effect it just became trash. Also, I guess you do not understand sarcasm, do you?

Nothing is balanced in the atrocity that Tanki calls "matchmaking" This is the #1 complaint since that system was forced upon us. Why do you think so many people quit? Who likes to be at the receiving end of a kill shot by a player 7 ranks higher than you? I can almost guarantee that if they were to balance ranks and equipment, you will not be able to find a single battle because there would not be enough players. I used to play everyday and do missions. Now I have not logged in to the game since the day I found out that I can no longer do missions in flash and I am not playing the HTML crap. I have moved on, like many players, to other games and so far, I am happy to say, haven't crashed once, haven't seen any lag, battles are always balanced, they do not have village idiots like Hazel Rah and Tanki is becoming a distant memory. However, I do come by the forum just to get a few laughs and get amused by the naive players and amaze myself with the fact that they are still people who try to defend Tanki!

Another example of bad programming that proves Tanki does not have the user in mind when they "develop features" and it also proves the ignorance of their "developers" or is it that they do it on purpose? (because they want you to waste your tankoins so you have to buy more? hmmmmmm.

You need to remove the Flash client then clear you cache, delete everything from your computer. If that does not work, buy a new computer that can handle HTML5. If that does not work, you need to move closer to the barn where Tanki keeps their server. If that does not work, run outside and try to find one of the developers who is tending Hazel Rah's sheep and goats outside the barn. If that does not work, then just give up Tanki. That's what I did along with thousand of other users. I checked the numbers in their main web site and it is 9:30 AM MST in the USA and it shows 8,676 users. When I started playing Tanki, before the atrocious MM system went live, there were over 60,000 concurrent users.

This is impossible! It is a figment of your imagination! After all, they are telling us they had to go to HTML5 because Flash is glitchy and HTML5 is much better, less bugs and so on. The "developers" do not lie! Your computer lies!
