Join the experiment with crystal drops

[GoldRock 6,165]

Excellent idea, and I'm sure a lot will be learnt from this experiment! Shows that the devs really do listen to feedback...

[xert88 3]

The problem is that i don't get the boxes beacause everyone is pushing and shooting so they can get the crystal box 1000,100,50,20...

i like this idea but it would be much better for us if the crystal boxes still dropped and at the same time they are added to the battle fund.

 

just saying

Players are complaining about getting nothing if they leave a  battle early.

 

My advice is AVOID LONG GAMES.

 

Long games, games with high flag counts (50-100 flags), and games with no time clock are really just set-ups fro raiders. 

 

Play only SHORT games with a time clock of 30 minutes or less, and/or low flag counts (5-10).

 

Anyone who enters a game with a 300 minute time clock is a fool.  

 

This has always been true, and I don't know why people do it.

We Want crystal Boxes back adding crystal to the battle is no fun I hate this thing better you add them to our account before the battle ends like bonus

I LOVE the immediate goldbox siren. Just got a goldbox there by pure chance.

Before, heavier tanks just pushed others outta way, especially with 30s-90s to find marked landing spot.

Goldbox is done & dusted quickly and everybody dosn't need to drug up unnecessarily.

 

Doing rewards by just end game battle funds.

Why would anyone stick with/join a losing team, if not for falling crystals???

Also would seriously advantage Shaft. Shaft already faciltates quick kills /rank ups. Tankers would all turn snipers/shafters.

 

I suggest.

1. Have an option of crystal drop boxes, when setting up a new battle. Let players decide how they want to play.

2. When only 1 player/team left, PLSx3 END BATTLE & share out the fund. Too many people leave out timers, or have ridiculusly long timers. / ridiculusly too many flags.

3. Bring back KICKOUT system. Too many players have long complicated names to use the \vote system. Least have a click on player name system.

 

 

Thanks, D

WORST UPDATE EVER!!!!!!!!!!! please change it now and lets keep it that way

[Rob 141]

Another thing! The gold. Got to test it. I capped a flag in a big map (Berlin). And it showed - Gold has been dropped. How is that fair? If my drugs have just ran out and I'm far from it? Unfair guys, unfair...

I hate this update!  Now it will be nearly impossible for lower level and less skilled players to get a decent amount of crystals, because other players will dominate the battle fund, and the little guys will have no other chance to find crystals. :angry:

this experiment is crap this is not good for tanki plz take it off!  :excl:

[LukasFromLithuania 0]

this sistem is bad, but November 18 is good
:)

 

[tnt384 12]

uhh... don't know what to think.. of course this means noobs will no longer be walking along crystal hunting and doing nothing but getting a few bonus crys from the boxes was nice.. 

[BJBlazkowicz 20]

 

lool lets spam here with gifs XD

[r_benisjamin0 1]

NO MORE CRYSTALS?! Why didn't you guys just get rid of the stamps and keep the box values (1, 5, 10, 20, 50, 100, etc.)?

[tomatenpuree 183]

Bad update!

 

They're all waiting for the 'Gold Box' now....

[guerrero25 62]

mults and campers only cry :D

[kijoa 1]

Why that experiment takes so much days? :angry:

return crystals to game!!!! 

[Daveski123 13]

I could not agree more with the crystal box idea. but the only problem is, with the gold box idea, people will not actually play the game, all they will do is camp around where the gold drops and will push their allies so they have no chance in getting it.

ok, here are my thoughts on this update in a nutshell... it is stupid.

reasons?

A. you have to stay till the end of the battle to get ANY crystals.

B. everybody knows you only get serious crystals from the battle fund if you are on the winning team, if your team loses, then you only get like 100 crystals if you are first for a moderate length battle. now if your team is seriously losing you will get discouraged because there is NO chance for crystals, then people will leave, is that any fun? also people won't join the losing team, before I would join almost any battle, because even if I can't turn the game around I can still get some crystals.

D. Gold boxes should be about skill as they have always been, now it is just the fastest tank will get it because it is the first to find the box.

d. more people will start drugging so that they win, then we get back to the problem of too many drugs which is what smart cool downs what trying to fix

E. this discourages brave tankers from playing in high rank battles, because again they can't get xp as quickly, therefore less crystals, it much easier to play with your own rank, this is the same if you want to play with your friend who is a couple ranks higher than you, he may get a couple hundred crystals and you one hundred which isn't fair.

 

I think the previous update was great just how it was, If there are people sitting on the crystal drop zones just kill them. Crystal boxes shouldn't be removed from the game, they are just too big a part of the game to get rid of

 

Another idea is to have two options when you make the battle drop boxes or no drop boxes

Brilliant experiment! This is Tanki in it's purest essence. Thank you very much...

 

My personal preference would be to add the gold box to the battle fund as well, but I can most certainly live with it now.

 

I think this update will be bad now no one wont play for losing team as there will be no crystals for you.

There will be no crystals yes, but only if you have captured no flags at all. You have probably chosen a battle out of your league when that happens. Your only option now is to leave and chose your battles more carefully. Basically you're being forced out, while previously (mostly lower ranked) players chose to stay and collect crystals.

[surirajput 21]

it is good but the distribution of crystal should be fair eg crystal can be distribute on the basis of  the point a player earn during the match

[Mr.SV.ENS 738]

Sounds good but really unfair for the losing team. I think this can work if you make the difference between the reward for a losing and winning team smaller, this will also motivate players to join or stay in the losing team.

 

I also think that you should keep the gold notification back to how it was because it didn't caused a big problem but now more people will be just waiting for the gold.

Crystal boxes = Crystals for other ppl who aren't very good, not just the really good ppl at the top of the scoreboard <_<

No Crystal boxes = only big ppl get Crystals
