After all the negative points of this update there is one positive point that the game has become more epic and a little bit twisty which is good :).

Crystal box mechanics improved

 

A growing battle fund now causes boxes to contain more crystals, rather than drop more often. A box can now contain 1, 5, 10, 20, 50 or 100 crystals. The bigger the increase in the fund since the last crystal box drop, the bigger the number of crystals in the next drop. As a result, crystal boxes for high ranks will be less frequent, but contain more. This will make them more of a benefit and less of a distraction. Crystal boxes will also remain in place until collected. This means that you'll be collecting more crystals overall.

 

Now everyone will wait to catch these "mini-gold boxes" and it creates more distraction sometimes. Also, I don't know if it's just me but I'm lagging more than before the update.

Hello,

 

Now because of this update the players are camping for crystal boxes or goldbox. No one is now concentrating on capturing the flag or killing other players. The fun of battle is now ruined. If any developer is seeing this please do something.

 

 

If you like my comment, +1

 

 

Bad update(s) :angry: :(

 

Revert the changes that this update caused.

There are so many mults waiting for 100 crystal boxes now. 

even they will wait for 10 crystal box before update also ;)

[Musty9 51]

Thats true but i have never seen such a whole bunch of people  and comparing it to the other 10 cry boxes  it has definetly increasd now and battles have been runined for most players

[deadmanrising 715]

So many mults, the gameplay is completely ruined........ people are fighting over 100 crystal boxes, and sometimes people don't play at all, my suggestion would be to make the goldbox and the supplies predictable and not the crystal boxes, wow anyone who upvotes this update is stupid

[Xenophobia 457]

even they will wait for 10 crystal box before update also ;)

True but now it's much more a disaster than it was before. Mammoths and titans sitting on crystal drop zones and just killing other people for 100-crystal boxes.

Before, crystals were dropping in small amount but more frequently, everyone was able to get some.

Now, crystals are dropping in big amounts but more seldom, only few players are able to get them.

 

Do you call this "sharing" ? While some players will become richer by collecting, others will become poorer and poorer

 

Now there are 20 players waiting for gold boxes in the same spot by shooting each other. You call this skill ?

 

It would be better if you change everything back, even bring tanki old version back, it was much more better.

 

I remember the time when we weren't hearing gold notification. It was dropping somewhere sometime secretly without us not knowing it. It was then only luck and skill, when few players see them they were racing to get it. Then we were seeing on the screen "xxx has taken the gold box" and we were all like "whaaa ? gold box dropped?" it was more entertaining. Now we know everything before they come. Where is the joy here ?

 

If I had found this game recently, not few years ago, I wouldn't register myself here. I don't think more new players will join.

I really miss old tanki

*USELESS UPDATE*

 

100 crystal drops, EVERYWHERE, EVERY BATTLE from Recruit to Generalissmo today. Every single player is focusing on picking a 100 crystal box instead of playing for the team. Make 10 boxes of 10 crystals drop but 100 crystals single box No Way!

 

I played today, I am like the only player playing to win. All others focus on picking a 100 crystal box.

 

Predictable Drops for Crystals and Supplies are perfect but for Gold Boxes?

Players who do not have good equipment will simply lose the chance to get gold as well and give up on playing !

 

I joined this game 8 Months ago, March 2014. The game was so perfect that time.

 

Now a days?

 

Firebirds are fatal. if you get damaged by a firebird you have no chance of surviving until a freeze cools you, an isida heals you or you pick or equip a medkit.

 

Isida's new effects look so bad, if they were like 50% thinner than now they will look perfect and Railgun's new effects look great.

 

These new kits are horrible. I think hardly 30% players would like these new kits. And Supplies Kit + Lots of supplies kit, both are going to be removed today, these kits were so necessary for players!

 

Developers, think about your updates once again! Just load the Tanki before the V-LOGs started rolling out and play it for an hour with your office people and do the same with the Tanki now. See the difference...

 

Basically, the player who purchases crystals, wins this game.

 

Else is up to you, developers.

Hello, you are right. i was the only player playing for my team. Others were camping.

[PAKISTANII 2,586]

Now most of the players waiting for Crytals drops ( 50 - 100 ) Multing whole game 
Bring kick system back as well , to kick those noobs  , i am losing every game because of these mults waiting for drops only and not helping the team to win !!! :angry:

True but now it's much more a disaster than it was before. Mammoths and titans sitting on crystal drop zones and just killing other people for 100-crystal boxes. 

today is double fund so this thing may happen lets see tommorow and they reduced the crystal drops area also

[williew 1,999]

Video 1, to be continued.. :lol: :lol:

[Xenophobia 457]

Yeah, I suppose we'll have to wait until tomorrow to see how it goes.

[jimboe2 35]

A game can get old as f*ck but still stay fun !

even when its already for a long time the same, maybe a little less updates..

Point taken :)

[slow_motion_man 0]

Lukey0 has said most of it.  I've been playing 8 months with multiple accounts.  I've never posted before.  These changes are absolutely horrible.  Instead of being a tank  battle, it's now a "gather the crystal"  game.  Everyone is just sitting next to supply and crystal markings.  I'll make more crystals just getting one "100" crystal then I will, in many cases,  winning a 10-15 minute game.  Please remove this tomorrow, I know you have backups of you're software, so you can restore easily.  This has made the game miserable.  BTW, before this change, this was by far my favorite game ever - of any kind.

[BlitzPanzer12345 241]

i love u developers

give me your address

i can gift u a hug

:)

[thunderrsam_shaft 0]

Good at least the Gold has been improved a bit by not taking a ridiculous 3min to drop.

 

I'm sorry Tanki, you have finished this game. I've been playing for 3 years now and never had an update released as bad as this.

 100 Crystal boxes sound cool but really everyone just waits for then to fall and just drug to get them. Before in DF I would of made over 1K since I posted this but I've only made 400. Crystals hardly drop and when they do the whole battle stops and runs towards them! I remember you saying the 10 crystal drops were a distraction but these 100 ones well...they are a even bigger distraction!

 

I thought smart cooldowns was bad well this topped it off, Tanki where is your head! I thought you could make this work but you couldn't. Did you even take you consideration into account? Well releasing an update the day after you tested it on the test server it really doesn't seem like it.

 

Tanki Gold is impossible to get. All the maps I've played in have had 1 drop zone for Gold. You said getting Golds now requires more skill, well unless you consider just trying to get on top of everyone more skill I don't know what you're talking about.  Gold was fine before why would you change it?

 

Also it looks like mults got there way there's only like 1 or 2 people on a team trying to win! Everyone else is just getting 100 crystal boxes!

I feel the same way luke.. BUT there is a simpler method by which we good players can easily get rid of muts. Semyon a long time ago said that they will be creating a system by which we can vote those players who we don't want in a team, and now problem solved . no more mults

My last post was just complaining.  Now for some ideas on changing.  How about adding some new turrets, like a gatling gun (extremem rapid fire, low damage) or a sound wave gun _{(wide range damage, dissipates with distance).  How about allowing tanks to damage buildings and trees so we can make new entrances during the game.  Going thru a new opening in a building would be very realistic, that's what tanks do.  Maybe allow the destruction of bridges as well.  Have tanks that are like bulldozers to clean up rubble after damage - kind of like healing.  But please get rid of today's changes.}

LOLZ. Only some of your ideas are good not all  :P 

[Timetoplaythegame_2 24]

Please put it back like it was before, it has become a crystall battle with teammates, and the enemy go in and out of the base like taking a walk in the park, ridiculous flag numbers, 200, 300, 500, on one side, the gold box drop zone symbol has also made it impossible to catch a gold, last week, I picked up 10 golds, on 2 different account, because noone knew where it dropped, now that everyone knows where it is, everyone puts power ups on and presses health, it's worst than the test server, the gold dropped right infront of me but I had to move becaue an isida came with full power ups on and, it's ridiculos.

 

Fixes, don't mark where the gold will drop.

 

Increase the rate at which boxes drop.

 

So that teammates don't kill each other to pick up a double energy :wacko:

[tastytank 12]

ridiculas . now ppl will use more drugs to get those 100 cry boxes. n that will lead to more cry buying. no fun at all. tanki is playing with mind of small n immature kids. tanki is  temping them to buy more n more crystals.

That's the bottom line; market the game in a way to reap more profits. This is also why you must pay 500 crys. to create/play a 'Pro' battle which relies on skill and can eliminate this mess.
