Update 169 — Friends System

[vkspaz 210]

Update 169 lets you keep your friends even closer than before!

 

 

Until this day, it was difficult to maintain friendly relations on the battlefield. We’ve come up with the Friends System in Tanki Online to let you keep in touch with your brothers in arms all the time.

 

On the upper bar you can see the Friends button. By clicking on it you open a menu that stores the names of all your friends as well as all the incoming and sent requests.

 

 

Please note that a player gets added to your friends list only after he or she confirms your request.

 

Another important addition is a player’s context menu that can be opened by left-clicking on a player’s nickname wherever you see it. You can use the same menu to send and accept friend requests. You will also find additional functions in the chat that allow you to copy a player’s nickname as well as send him or her a message. Experienced players can use "Ctrl + left click" combination to send a message to a specific player without using the context menu.

 

 

An indicator appears on "Friends" button when you receive a new incoming request or other player accepts yours to make sure you don’t miss anything important.

 

Friends system supports search. It allows you to send a request to a player whose name can’t be found in the chat or interface. To use search, open Friends menu and click on Sent Requests tab. Enter the player’s nickname, make sure that it was found in the data base and click on "Send" to create a new request.

 

Friends and Accepted Requests tabs also support search but it works only in the corresponding lists. Use it to quickly find a friend or a request.

If a player has already been added to your Friends List, his or her nickname will be highlighted in the battle statistics table, battle info and in the chat.

 

 

If your friend is in a battle, you will see a link to it in your Friends menu. Battles with your friends in them are always in the top of the list and show the number of friends in them. Currently nickname of your friend over his or her tank in the battle itself is not highlighted.

 

 

You don’t need a confirmation to delete someone from your friends list. If you decide to remove a friend, then you will be automatically removed from his or her list as well. Keep that in mind.

 

That’s it. Now, knowing everything about the Friends System, go to the game and find all your friends!

Feel free to share your impressions in this topic!

[POWERFULLSOUL 78]

wow like it !!!

[jonathanjoseph 71]

NICE!

Please though, make it so we can see if a friend is on another server so we can access that server. Like, it would say "Server 6" instead of a battle.

The test server had a glitch that when a person would be in battle, the friends list wouldn't show anything, as though the player was nowhere - so we couldn't follow them to their battle. Hope that works now.

 

Also it would be awesome if in the near future this feature appeared on the forum, so we can add friends on the forum and they go into our list, pm them, etc.

[cookiemonster321 37]

Yay!

[lizerdgirl108 397]

I'm not too fond of all these annoying noobs finding it more important for me to be in their friends list rather than actually getting to know me or even bothering to talk to me. 

 

But.. yeah... exciting new stuff.  ^_^  I'll try to stay positive about it

[xTremeAluminium 1,379]
