Gameplay Ideas and Suggestions!

Hello Tankers and "Tanki",

 

I thought that will be usefull if in my health bar of my tank is shown exactly how much health is left on my tank . With numbers, so i can decide which enemy i must avoid and with which i have chance >

 

Other idea is about map. 

What about if you update map and make some mud or water from where tankers will be go away very slowly. That might be tricky for those , who carry flag :)))

 

 

Regards,

Vasil

The numbers won't give you much, as the damage from guns varies so you can't ever know what guns you will definitely not get one-shot with.

 

The mud and water idea is interesting, but I think it isn't possible to be made well with the current game engine.

Fix : Freeze slowing you down in the air, It's impossible, and it's caused me to flip before. 

Fix : Railgun lag, sometimes it doesn't fire at all, sometimes it fires and does no damage, sometimes it fires through walls!

Fix : When from the lobby, it says there are people in the battle and you join and press tab, half of them have vanished, but from the lobby they are still there.

Fix : Ricochet and twins firing invisible pellets. It's so annoying and it's not lag.

Fix : Twins "Burst fire" when a twins players lags, for an enemy they temporarily stop firing, then a few seconds later all of their shots shoot out at once and can knock tanks over! 

Fix : The game sees turrets as invisible, so if you back up to a tree you see inside, and when you flip you are flat on your hull, turret going through the ground. Make the turret like the hull, so you can attempt to self right.

 

Add : Mud and water, Very requested from players! 

Add : Armour, above your yellow health bar is another smaller "Armour" bar thats slowly deteriorates. This would lead to more interesting team battles and teamwork!

 

Thats about all I can think off for now.

Well the game is changing to unity soon, and they said they don't plan it in the future :(

This is impossible to fix. It's yours or the Railgun's internet connection issue. Can only be fixed by improving your internet - the developers can't do anything.

It's lag. They are not designed to shoot invisible charges.

 

Fix : Twins "Burst fire" when a twins players lags, for an enemy they temporarily stop firing, then a few seconds later all of their shots shoot out at once and can knock tanks over! 

This is also lag and can only be fixed if the lagging player improves their connection. Applies to all guns. The developers can only add a kick feature for players with high ping, but that might be seen as unfair by low-end internet users.

 

Fix : The game sees turrets as invisible, so if you back up to a tree you see inside, and when you flip you are flat on your hull, turret going through the ground. Make the turret like the hull, so you can attempt to self right.

Two main problems with this:

First, it would change the gameplay completely, making it unnecessarily more difficult and annoying. You wouldn't be able to do the swift manoeuvres you can do now, because your turret would constantly get stuck on obstacles. It would be a huge disadvantage to Shaft and Railgun. 

Second, it would increase lag in the game, reduce FPS and increase the battle loading time. More polygons will lead to more complicated collisions and models that take up more memory space. I think it's okay the way it is now, despite being unrealistic.

 

 

Add : Armour, above your yellow health bar is another smaller "Armour" bar thats slowly deteriorates. This would lead to more interesting team battles and teamwork!

I don't get it. The Yellow bar is the reload bar and even if there was another bar added above health it would again, only make the game unnecessarily difficult. The "health" bar is technically the armour bar.

High ping means u get Golds so many peeps do it on purpose

Not necessarily. Often when you have bad internet you can't pick up drop boxes, including golds. Happened to me once  :(

[Loackie 269]

how about, oh i don't know, *not* reward campers for their game-ruining playstyle? (includes me too but i'll change if everyone else does)

We already have an Ideas and Suggestion topic in... Ideas and Suggestions section (wtf?)

And honestly nor devs, nor mods even take a peek at those topics, so you're basically speaking without saying any words.

If you are talking about this topic then yes - the developers and helpers pay less attention to this that the topics in ideas and suggestions. However they definitely do check the Ideas and Suggestions section, as I've seen both helpers and developers answer in the topics there.

Then I wonder why devs only noticed the Ricochet physics topic I made there only when I e-mailed them about it...

I don't know… Maybe they're busy with other ideas at the moment.

Suggestion: no one can enter/help/profit by entering the winners side. As long as you are in advance in a battle, no new team members are allowed. I think this would make a better game.

There are so many games where I see the losing team having at least two team members less. It is even no fun winning such a game. And if you look in the play lists there are a huge amount of games that got unbalanced so far it is no option to join them.

So if we're winning and half of our team suddenly leaves, we're not allowed to have new players until the other team catches up? Just no. Not happening. It's like if in football a team is winning and some players get injured and have to be replaced, but they don't get replaced because "oh, you're winning anyway so you have to be weaker now to allow the other team to catch up".

 

Do you really think it's fair if the winning team was putting huge effort into capturing flags against the full enemy team, yet they can easily even out the score by capturing flags when your team is half empty? Think again.

Good point, if you are winning and half your team abandons you, you should loose the game.

 

Not sure if I was clear, if a loosing team has 3 and a winning team has 3 members. You will see the winning team gets the 4th member quickly and the loosing team falls further behind.

If you see a loosing team of 3 battling a winning team of 4, you cannot join the winning team, very good. But if you join the loosing team you will most often see the winning team gathers another member quickly. Loosing team 4 against winning team 5 still one behind.

 

I propose that  if a loosing team has 3 members and a winning team has 3, you can join the loosing team but not the winning team. As soon as the loosing team has one more member, you can again join the winning team again as well.

OK, that's more reasonable  :)

[aniakki 8]

Will there be a sell option i the game in future or in unity version?????

[Maf 32,312]

There are no plans regarding the addition of a sell option and ideas to add such an option are rejected.

 

In the future if you want to ask a question about the game, please refrain from creating new topics and use the official Questions and Answers topic.
