Ideas for Game Modes!


 Share

Recommended Posts

Tanki has a lot of good ideas. I love where the graphics are going. The invasion mode sounds like it'll be wicked but the game is so seriously unbalanced that I have lost interest in playing. If I ever log in again, it will probably be one of the last times. It's INSANE that so many players 2 and 3 ranks below me can kill me with a single shot in an M2 Viking but I have to shoot them full power shaft 2 or 3 times to kill them. I can expect that from people who out rank me 2 or 3 ranks but people way below me?  I wasted probably $200 on this game. I'd need $200 a week to keep up with those kinds of upgrades. Every day I don't spend I get farther behind. On top of that they buy supplies by the hundreds and drug and drug. I might as well not even waste my time since I cannot afford to buy supplies at the rate they do and I cannot make up for it with skill. I'm a good tanker. I play every day. I'd happily put $20-40 a month into the game. I cannot afford that really, but if nobody paid there would be no game. But I don't have hundreds of dollars to throw in and there is no way to get better. It doesn't matter how many times I shoot them, they just need to hit me once and I'm dead. Doesn't matter what turret they use any more. I'll admit my M2 is new, but who has the crystals to upgrade much? Takes me 2 to 3 days, to do an upgrade below 15. 15-20 I'm lucky to get an upgrade a week. Above 20 forget it, only time I can do those is when I advance a rank. Then I have to pick between hull or turret. I can't upgrade both. It's 10k of crystals to upgrade anything now. Thats a week or more of crystals to make ONE upgrade. The people I am playing against are doing upgrades every day apparently.  It's VERY frustrating to try to find a game where I am not badly outclassed any more in hull and turret.

 

You really just need a better combo. I would suggest M2 firebird as it goes great with ur M2 Viking

Can't afford to start over. I have M1 Twins that are at 43 of 50, just cannot afford the upgrade costs. Prefer the long range maps anyway. Or I'd go with the Isilda, which is at least M2.  Big thing is I lost ground. I didn't keep up with the upgrades. I tried to keep 3 turrets, 1 hull and 1 paint upgraded and I was upgrading slower than folks the same rank. At 2nd Luie I often had totals like 45 kills to 3 losses. Seeing people my own rank was still a good thing. Today I see people my own rank and I cringe, knowing I cannot kill most of them with less than 3 shots. 

 

What I should have done was abandon Twins and Isilda. Gotten a Mammoth or Titan instead of a Viking and done it that way. Too late now. By the time I upgraded a Mammoth to M2 or saved up to buy one I'd be a 3 star general and need an M3 to be competitive. I don't see a way to fix it.  Some maps it's like the old days. I shoot people and they die. Some maps I shoot them an infinite number of times and they just roll on. It'll be worse when I advance. I'll lose a lot of maps and be pitted against lots of generals. I can't kill them generally. They can stand there and I'll do full power shots at idle generals and need 3 sometimes 4 full power shots to kill one. Usually only time I kill a general is if they are almost dead already when I shoot them. If it was something I could just push through and I'd be back to being tough I could do that but every day the battles get more lopsided. Wish I could do a screen cap to show just how insane it is sometimes. 

 

Thanks on the suggestion though.

I like the last tank standing idea. I also like the multi team idea. Though 3 or going tandem is a better way. Four teams are too many. Far too many folks if they get the lightest beating leave. Go up 3 flags on them and they quit. Get 10 tank lead on them in TDM and they run. I hate that, I'll be on a losing team but it's still close, then turn around and find out more than half the team quit and we are now outnumbered 3 or 4 to 1. So you want to keep the teams down to where at least two stick it out or go with pairings. So many people team in DM mode nowadays anyway. Really frustrating when they do that, but it's rare to see a DM mode game today where at least one such pair is operating. You'll see them grouped together shooting EVERYONE but each other or openly admit it in chat.

Tanki developers please let the assault mode stay even after new year celebrations are over. Instead of having a Christmas tree in the centre, you can replace it with a simple thin tall building or a cool looking tower. U can then also make the map a daytime only map and rename the map Kremlin.

But pls pls pls let assault mode stay... Also add 6 new achievements in the ratings section. Earning experience in assault mode will unlock these achievements. Pls let assault mode stay!! Guys who all are with me? U can also design daily missions with regular difficulty and reward level.

Assault is a very nice game mode. Guys if u like assault mode too just up vote my post and also request for assault mode to stay

I kinda like the map but the gamemode was ruined by mults who didn't defend and bored guys who din't attack.

Agreed.

But it could be fun when it was filled to the max and everyone was playing

Yeah, it was fun when that happened but that was quite a rare occurrence to see. Also, i found that lagged a lot worse in that gamemode.

This is about skills, sneaking, teamwork and playing highly tactical:

 

Game mode: Last man standing / Last Team standing

 

first 5 minutes:

- The game starts like normal DM/TDM in order to fill up. Kills are not counted in this period.

 

As soon as the battle is full or 5 minutes are over, it switches to Last man Standing:

 

Next 5 minutes:

- no new tanks are accepted to this battle

- each tank has 3 lifes (displayed above him like a supply).

- after loosing the last live, the tank will see the view of one of his teammates and can watch him playing

- In this mode you give 20 experiance poits per kill (splitted if in team mode), as the players have to play less risky

- The battle is over when only one tank / one team is left alive

 

This battles have always just a fixed runtime - so no 1h battles with 2vs2 tanks...

Runtime should be corelated to amount of tanks in battle (above values in minutes are just examples).

 

EDIT: please look there for clarificaions on the battle fund share: -> link to my seond post in this thread

EDIT2: obviously someone had the same idea short before me: -> link

this idea is awesome i would lay nothing but this mode all day

There should be a new type of battle in Tanki Online where players take part in a battle mission, where a team of players rescue a hostage player.

 

The players team up against enemy tanks and rescue the captured tank and take him to his hanger alive.

 

For every hostage tanks saved players receive 100 points.
