Mouse controls and changes in auto-aim mechanism

[tank_destroyer7 13]

Ok so i checked out mouse controls and i was really looking forward to it i was quite disappointed with what you have done to shaft the green brackets what are they for? I didnt like using mouse controls because i was rubbish when using it so i turned it off in the settings. However sometimes when i use shaft the turret just aims up when i aim and i cant bring it back down this makes it virtually impossible to use shaft another thing is the cross hairs are to the left of my screen and not in the center so i cant aim properly either. I spoke to my friend that uses safari browser so he dosent have the new feature and he also said his shaft was messed up. His cross hairs were inline where there supposed to be but his turret also aims up sometiems and has a mind of its own on some occasions E.G. his turret just goes round in circles. This never happened to him before moue controls were brought into the game. I hope you fix the buggy shaft soon becuase i love using my shaft and at the minute i cant

1) If you work for IT then you should know that sometimes things things can go bad

2) Open beta testing is for the public to try the new update out, so obviously it is out of curiosity, the "invite codes" are for the Russian testers.

3) It is 10x better than the mouse control in the beta testing stages

 

Correction should be video games

4) You don't need players to make a game

Obviously not

1) yes i know.. and if it happens once in a blue moon it can be somewhat accepted, but if it happens a lot.. the team gets fired...

2) you need to see the rush whenever the test servers open with or without an update being released.

2.a) and no not just the russian testers.. players too... prove me worong on that. and why just russian testers? dont other people know how to play the game or test and provide feedback?

3) that point doesnt make any sense... whats 10x better then the mouse controls?

4) yes and devs can play the game all day long by themselves.. lol

5) miss informed

 

you too have a good day now.. i am having a second good day without playing :/

 

on top of that just watched vlog 41.... new contorls are best for "shaft".. bullshi(bleep)..where did you catch this guy from to give tips on mouse controls and shafts? and symon telling us to look forward to the weekend playing... duh!!!

The testers are have to speak Russian because it is easier for them to communicate to the devs

And I meant that the current mouse controls are 10x better than the controls in the beta

 

Devs make the games, but the players play it. You don't need players to make a game, only the devs. THe players come in AFTER the game has been made.

 

I fail to see the potential of mouse controls in Tanki Online,

because it generally makes the game feel like just another

tank game in the bunch. Like I just said: "butchered World 

of Tanks", that is the exact feeling I'm getting from the game

right now, and it's safe to say I'm not the only one. If there was

any other term I could plaster next to the one I just mentioned,

it would be: "Call of Duty wannabe with tanks."

 

Those strict and clunky

keyboard controls gave the game so much depth, they made the

game unique compared to ANYTHING else out there, and now

that unique concept is butchered, no... SLAUGHTERED, just

so the game can try to appeal to a wider audience.

Mouse control has opened up a new level of gaming, almost on the likes (as you have mentioned) of CoD and BF. Sure, it may have been "unique" but a cybersport will change for the better (once mouse control is fully working). Edited April 10, 2015 by MusicJam19

look after these all posts i want to post 2..look mouse controls bad for twins i cant use properly,it is better to use keyboard than mouse control...bad update,i like twins more and mouse controls are not good for it..sorry.

[Opex-Rah 5,375]

I found a reliable way to replicate the shaft bug :)

 

1. Press space to enter scope mode, keep it pressed.

2. Press up key (or down, or left...), keep it pressed.

3. Release space to fire, while keeping the up key still pressed.

4. Release the up key after scope mode animation ended.

5. Press space to enter scope mode again.

 

Expected outcome: motionless cross hair in scope mode.

Actual outcome: cross hair starts moving up until up key is pressed and released again.

Feedback like a boss.

[9A-SOVA 2]

Is it just me, or is Shaft completely unplayable now. The aiming has a complete mind of it's own, like going up or down without me making it.

No, it's not just your problem....  they "destroyed" shaft. And i'm mad now, cause i bought Score multiplier, and now i can't play because controls are not working. My adobe flash player is updated to latest version, mouse controls are turned off...

 

Give me back my crystals or extend lifetime of the pass .... OR FIX THAT!!

[vecky 86]

Some things more...

From last 3 or 4 days the game was jumpy and jolting may be it is a consequence of new update I dont know.

Some more thing in corelation of vulcano I notice that the vulcan can go throught more thanks and is more

lethiferous but on the other hand the twins is ruined he can not go throught the tanks and is less lethiferous

then vulcano, not to mention that my keyboard disobey when I find myself at gunpoint of vulcano,

Some other thing In the sandbox the vulcano can shoot over almost ever opstacle, hill or knap, but my twins no.

My twins is almost on M4 and I just ask my self Are we and Am I a fool, idioti-c  or credebile that we / I payed so

much crystals in twins (or some other weapons) and You donate a lethal weapon that annul all the hard work

of all of us who have invested and developed with love our previous weapons.

The same thing is for the hammer.
Are your goal is that all of us give up from our favorite weapon and wear all this new weapon?

Or you goal is to complete over meaninglessness our efforts and all our humble all our skills of playing with

the raw power of heavy weaponry. Stronger than all our weapons together.
Just think about that when you stay with yourself in the four walls.

I will repeat this apel till you equalize this two weapons with others.

Bye

Feedback like a boss.

For me it seems that this solution is similar to that in mathematics two minuses make a plus.

Or translated two errors make good work of the program or game.

Why should invent a way to correct the previous mistake by introducing additional keys to

press because before update everything worked as it should be.

Just to correct the mistake that was made, so we need to add one more to remedy that.

Why?

[vecky 86]

twins must have better aim as a vulcan

I agree with You and more power and to go throught thanks like him.

I'm angry at the developers, but not because of this mistake

alone. My anger comes from the fact that the developers clearly

fail to see Tanki's TRUE POTENTIAL. Those strict and clunky

keyboard controls gave the game so much depth, they made the

game unique compared to ANYTHING else out there, and now

that unique concept is butchered, no... SLAUGHTERED, just

so the game can try to appeal to a wider audience.

 

PS EDIT: Tanki Online desperately needs someone to lead its

development with a clear head, because now it looks like the

game is having a SERIOUS identity crisis and is trying to find

it's way by including elements that worked for other games,

completely disregarding the clashes with already existing

elements it has going in it's favor...

I agree with you, I think that TankiOnline programer started to think like Microsoft programer and start to

make game for dummies Because only lazy and bad players want to play game with mouse.

Believe me so far I have not found a game that you can play better with a device other than the keyboard.

I don't count flight games.

Update 345 Mouse controls

 

This update took a very long time to come out and it still has a lot of errors!

It only works in Fire fox or oprea!

It still has bugs, it takes to long to turn.

 

Over all

 

1 and a half stars!

 

 

My topic the good the bad the updates

They dont fix shaft bag! I cant use it all day!

 

Kace marti misterija kace?

[dfoofnik 341]

 Plus mouse control can be disabled

Which does not eliminate all the glitches. Why was this buggy change implemented when they knew it would screw up the players??

[pisinetajs 0]

Its become impossible to play with shaft- it starts to turn when i don't need it :o if I go into the sniping mode it starts to spin although i did not pushed any button- so in this case worst update ever if it stays i am unable to play :angry:

[r_tedomedo0 0]

I can't control well shaft these days. When i zoom to shoot, shaft moves up or down by itself, then after a shot, turret turns left or right automatically too. Is this related to latest update? I don't use mouse in the game.

[fightermalikio20115 374]

lol.this has got exactly -99 downvotes

[pisinetajs 0]

Yeah I am totally agree with you.

As you have said, shaft should be removed from the game - and such step is really step forward to such direction.

they screwed game by adding laser sight- in what war do you want to be seen by your enemy-ridiculous, now they adding this update where shaft turns by his own - nonsense.

Just because u cant avoid shaft doesn't mean that it needs to be taken out    

[dfoofnik 341]

Devs make the games, but the players play it. You don't need players to make a game, only the devs. THe players come in AFTER the game has been made.

.

And what is the purpose of the game without players? (I think we all know what that is.) The game has attracted thousands of free users and paid users just the way it is. They don't need apologists; they need someone to make quality control before they screw up.

As for boycotting being useless, wait until the financiers see the stats plummet and their lucrative enterprise going belly up trying to be everything to everybody. I can play other games and I will, until this is remedied or removed. You only have to look back one month to the *complete fail* of the fanboy sirens and "hurry up, noobs" of that early ending fiasco. Now no games end early, even when they should. Soon no one will be playing at all, much less with mouse controls. I have seen a 30% decline in new battles the last 3 days. What does that say??

Can you please remove this update? it's causing all these problems: weapons stop shooting all of the sudden, glitches, cant turn and shoot at the same time, cant press multible buttons at same time.

[garygwallace 1]

This update is totaly screwing up my ability with shaft which is what I play all the time. Remove this update or fix it asap please. I will be playing and then all the sudden turret just keeps spinning or elevation of gun goes crazy. Who would use the mouse anyway? My platform is firefox and Windows 7 64bit. FIx or remove this update soon please!!!

Edited April 10, 2015 by garygwallace

[r_KingScope0 11]

Is there a time frame when shaft will finally be usable again? It's day 2 now and still no signs of improvement.

 

How about the update be removed until everything is in working order? Seems fair and simplistic enough.
