valid Best friends system / friend categories

[duck100101 965]

Okay thankfully there is a friends system, that you can find friends and play with them of invite them to your battles...

 

But what about a best friends system where you can send PM to them and when your friends comes online it will say Nickname is online or offline..

 

You might ask why do we need a PM system in the game, we already have a great one in the forum?

 

Here's why.. Not many people use the forum sadly and having a PM system in the game would make talking to your friends much easier..

 

It would look like Nickname has sent you a PM open or view later and it would give the headline of the PM..

 

Also in battle or, main chat, it would say "nickname" has sent you a PM, View now or later.

 

I also thought of having  voice chat, which would also be cool, it would well really with when tanki moves to unity

 

 

Also you categorize your friends into groups, like Parkour, Clan, Besties, etc.

 

 

 

 

 

 

It  would be very useful and helpful..

 

Like or dislike and comment please..

 

~Duck100101 Thanks :) :D

Good idea, but it would be more helpful to just let you categorize your friends into groups, like Parkour, Clan, Besties, etc

 

 

Press, spoiler to see what MarineMan2 thinks about this...

This actually sounds interesting, though here is where I think you should edit the topic to improve the idea.

• Your friendly list should already be your "best friends" list. Don't let anyone on to it unless you are actually friends with them.
• There should be no hold option for messages, as this could potentially disrupt game play if someone takes a break once a big heat of battle slows down so they may read.
• Furthermore, I would think there should be a limit regarding how many messages you could send per, minute, half hour, hour, ect (something along those lines).

Disruption of game play is really my main concern.

i wish you could send a private message to your friends on the game because a lot of my friends don't look on forum or they won't read it infill couple days or week after i sent it so i wish you could send a private message when there offline and when they log on it will show them there message. Also i wish you could put hidden places, secret places so you can get in they were fun when this game had them specially for parkour its not as fun, i know people will hide in them with the flag but like i mean they were still fun and you could make it where you can't bring flag in or not in ctf battles but those maps where fun like pass, and highland, skyscrapers called now which was altar before or something like that but those were so cool. maybe make like parkour battles or parkour maps so you can play on and don't have like a battle so know one will join and start killing people like crazy and ruin it , i mean it would be very awesome

My bad you had this forum post b4 I had this post made but still cool we had same idea Xd

Still waiting for this to come out.

How about a small change? I was thinking how in a lot of MMORPG's I've played there is a chat that you can see at any time. And you can choose to filter out what people in certain groups are saying. Like, you can choose to only see what your guild, realm, friends, or entire sever is saying. And you can also choose to only let people in your guild or realm to see what you're saying. So, sort of like having "groups" of friends, only in chat. This would be a good idea because then we could chat with clan members without having to go the forum, e-mail, or facebook, etc.

You could be able to "favourite" some of your friends. And it would tell you when they come online/go offline - if this would be a distraction, then you could be able to disable in settings. Also, you should be able to send a message to anyone through in-game. Just incase you wanna invite someone, they would know the reason.

A small messaging system while sending an invitation would be awesome too. You can send a message 30 letters max when inviting, because most of the time you don't actually know why your friend is inviting you..

 

 

 

 

How it works on playstation-network (PS3) Also you can reply to your friends or send a PM to them.

 

 

 

 

PS4 What it looks like

It could work. There would be like a second friends button where you could sent your message

mash40

I like the idea!

 

ExtremeKiller26

An enveloper pic with "Messages" next to it. New messages get lit up by a little exclamation mark like friends tab.

 

Truthteller

Overall your idea  is great duck  ;)

bluelight1209

A genius idea. Hope this gets enacted for sure.

gus166

The only issue i have is that it would detract people even more to go to the forum but other than that i like the idea.

Truthteller

Thats like dozens of notifications thats allot for gismmos see maybe add a button where you can tur the notification on/off

 

deadtoyou

 

What if, this idea was tied in to the Achievements Idea, and your friends could see a notification saying "Your friend has completed achievement bla bla bla....."?

Also, what if your friends could see when you ranked up? Or better, could they also see how much experience you have so they could know when you're close to ranking up?

 

Kevred

Great "idea" about an in-game PM system! You can hardly claim the "idea" since probably everyone once gave it a thought or so. Especially like the 'idea' of sending a small message with the battle invitation.

 

Loackie

why not a PM time limit? say, 20 or 30 seconds, which is around a 30 word message for what I would assume the average typer.

 

 

 

doughnut2100

This is a great idea, which I had thought of when having a rank party and others not knowing what it is, so refusing. Also simply to communicate with your clan and see if they can attend training, or busy in battle, etc.

:wub:  yes good idea like watapp skype hmmm sounds good type chat and voice chat :wub: :wub:

 

 

eswarsrikanth.v

Nice idea bro!it will be good if we can send PM's in game because when it come's to disabling invites we can't call them but if we have messaging system we can send them a small note

Shad0w365

This is just what tanki needs. Ive wanted this for ages :)

 

genak138

This should really be in the game. I have a lot of friends but i want to know when my actual FRIENDS are online. Also, the fact that we could message eachother would be pretty cool. Especially if we want to tell them why were inviting eachother (e.g. : I need someone to come to this battle, please help it grow, theres only 4 ppl) or maybe: Our team is getting hammered could you please help?

This should just definitely be in the game as it is a great idea.

 

deadtoyou

Great idea, this would be a really convenient addition to the game. :)

I have several friends who I play with regularly, but I have tons of other "friends" who just see my high rank and friend me, and I accept cause why not. So It would be cool to have this in the game so I can see when my REAL friends are online, and this idea would benefit by including a PM system, cause I have trouble with posting a private battle and random people joining. :) Also a really great way to chat Privately with your friends cause they're just so cool. B) (and with no eavesdroppers)

mohammad95s_FX

It's good ;)

 

dilsharox

i said it may affect other players 

& by this some players will not socialize with others & get into fights with others cuz they only chat with his/her best friend & it may end up becoming a dating site

 

aBdUlLaHkInGg

I really liked lordmostafa's thoughts about this :D, same are mine :).

 deadtoyou

You know what? I've visited several different topics, and you are always downvoting everyone's ideas. <_< 

Your input doesn't mean very much to me anymore, and it should't mean anything to Duck, this idea of his is awesome.

the_blue

Would you be able to disable them? 

where would the message show up?

 

Sorry for the questions, 

Good idea Duck!

 

Jesse_X99

 

Wow Duck, as others have said you cant quite claim this as your idea.. but this is a great one!

I've always wondered the same thing, wouldnt it be easier? Lol

For instance I'm in a stadium game a few minutes ago, i leave because a friend invites me to his game.. i go like a good friend and, its a hopeless case... :L

I wanna know what im going to and why, and to talk to freinds in little messages. :D

Dev's do something everyone can agree on and not just the buyers, xD

 

 

millsman

But as you saying yep... Awesome .... So you know oh they didn't quit tanki or you know that's why there not active.. Etc... Plus be awesome if you could see when was last time they logged on... In your friend list so you know if they active... Example yo haven't seen someone or talked or etc in like 6 months or a year you be who's this and maybe could delete them... But you know how people take breaks.... So as you saying it be cool oh I'm going to take a long break from tanki for like 6months or what ever so you know oh ok.. You be still active wants your back so I won't delete you... Plus it be good if you could see how much do they have left till they rank... Example you log on oh they have 1k pretend there offline... You be oh I'll make sure I'll be on later or the next day when there on because they probably be ranking....li see what I mean.,,, so you never miss the day there ranking...!!!!

 

 

deadtoyou

How about this:

 

Regular Friends show up like this: deadtoyou

 

Best Friends show up like this: deadtoyou

 

 

 

blackflag444

maybe it could have its own little icon at the top of the screen and if someone has messaged you there will be an exclamation mark on it until you read it.

 

TankiMedic

 

This idea sounds awesome!

 

snipe3000

This would make a good update only I would really like the "Best friends" thing. I have way too many friends to count and I would have to delete every friend that isn't someone who i am friends with in order to clear my friends system. Being in a clan would be easier if you could put them in a "Best friends place" and then they would be separated from other friends,

 

 

Potatoe10937

This is a good idea, they can make another section when you click friends button and between friends,sent requests, there should be a button called close friends where you can add your fellow clan teamates for or anyone in real life. when you click on your close friends, there should be a extra button called message where you can message them indulvisually in battles and on different servers. :D good idea

 

generalpotato_PRO

this would be great cuz i have a lot of friends and they should add more tabs for organizing friends

for example, i have clanmates in one tab

friends i know in real life tab

and friends i met online,

etc.

 

plus msging other players is good too because sometimes i need to talk to my friend but he is in a battle i cannot join (high/low ranks, full, pro) so then i cant talk to him and when he gets out of the battle i have to get offline

 

hasan66hasan66

finally someone have same of my ideas 

 

delnina2

Very good Idea ! 

 

I think that it will be very useful .  One of the best ideas I have seen ! 

 

5 stars from 5 . 

 

A tip . Because your idea's topic has 17 pages and 67+ upvotes . Please send a Pm to Hazal Rah . I love it! BUT (yea always gotta have a but) they would have to monitor what people say and it might get a little vulgar. Also, we don't want tanki in the same category as match.com HOWEVER I think it is a WONDERFUL idea and would love to have it.

-yoshicool

 

i really need PM in game , this would be verrrry useful for us 

 

and the voice chat should have been already added to the game long time ago

 

XmeDavid

 

Instead of  having two separate buttons, why not just have like a star next to each friends name, and you can on click it to "Add to favorites", Inside the favorite tab, next to incoming request  you can see all your favorite friends, and/or send messages trough there or something, I would imagine the friends tab looking something like this :

 

 

P.S If you don't like me using your nickname on this topic just tell me and I will remove it, right away!

[Invincitron 888]

This might make even more of those annoying chatterboxes that would rather talk to their friends than play in the battle (that always refuse to leave) but oh well. A PM system in-game would be awesome and I could find use to this (clan members on "best friends" list and normal friends on "friends" list :)).
