Mouse controls and changes in auto-aim mechanism

[Opex-Rah 5,375]

Are you left-handed or you are playing that way because you accustomed to control your tank with arrow keys?

[lnstantly 1,020]

If you use Standalone Flash Player version 15 or 16, please update it to version 17 here. It will solve most of the issues you are facing with mouse controls.

Still doesn't work

[liverpoolaum 811]

Guys no point in criticizing the developers instead give suggestion that can improve the mouse control developers are trying their best and this is their 1st try in this project.

I am left-handed. It took me ages to find a good gaming mouse that wasn't shaped for right-handed people

It is of shaft gameplay

 

what browser you use

Internet Explorer, updated to the latest version (for Windows 8)

[infamous 94]

if tanki devs are working on this secrlty which i beleive they are, there are 4 main issues with shaft in my openion right now:

 

1) in small window the crosshair goes to the top left instad of being in the center (no fix found yet except for to play in full screen mode)

2) tank controls freezes.. you cant shoot or turn the turret left or right (to fix this go in settings, click save and come out)

3) when you hit scope mode, the aim automatically goes either in the sky or the ground (to fix that either you have to shoot your round or press down or up arrow repeatdly to bring it down)

4) while rotating the turret, z/x, the turret gets stuck (to fix this press the "C" key and it will rotate its self and aim in front)

Yes there are.

We criticize it because there are test servers and they have to (have to) remove this update.

Suggestions doesn't help for removing...

[samlauncher 106]

remove mouse controls, dont add what isnt needed

[9A-SOVA 2]

So... shaft is still not working properly. It's enough for me, i won't play this game anymore. Nice work Tanki, you really know how to loose money.

After seeing MusicJam's vid using mouse controls on Shaft, I think it's a really great idea after all, especially when the bugs are fixed.

 

I found out the reason why I can't access Flash settings is because the right mouse button is used to look around without moving your turret, and that's a really nifty feature.

 

Once again, looking forward to the patches.

Appreciate the effort tanki

Are you left-handed or you are playing that way because you accustomed to control your tank with arrow keys?

That's all you have too say and ask. WOW. Hazel I don't know what your views are and if you just doing as your are told by someone else, but your team really needs to wake up and listen to what people are telling you. This update has ruined game play for too many players.

 

• The new new auto-aim is not working correctly. It is causing missed shoots that never missed before, and also allowing shots threw objects like walls and the floor. I even saw some comments about the flipping issue being back again although I personally have not used wasp since the update.
• Mouse controls are way too buggy for release. Too many players don't even have access to them because of  browser limitations. For anyone who drives using the arrows and is right handed the mouse is useless anyway. 
• Shaft, well just look up above for all the issues players are having.
• Again, like after every update, lag increased. Loading time for windows 8.1 64bit with all the latest updates to chrome and windows just takes forever. Nothing on that machine changed only your update changed. So logic tells me it is your cause.

As I've said too many times, your team needs to stop messing with things that are not broken and focus on fixing the real issues. Your peak server loads are dropping and adding new useless updates and ignoring the players that are complaining about the problems is why. I'm very sorry to tell you but Tanki online's customer service is terrible. 

 

I understand the pressure your team must be under. Trying to keep this game fresh, so the kids with very short attention spans keep coming back is very difficult, but if players keep leaving angry the negative reviews will stop them from coming in the first place. Someone else mentioned something, and it is a very good point. How many potential new players tried the game since you released this update and left because of all the bugs? To be honest, if I had tried it for the first time now, I would have just left. There are players leaving that got hooked and have played for months and years. If these players have had enough and are leaving, what do you think those that haven't got hooked yet are going to do?  Your team should never have released this update in the state it is in.

What are the specs of your machine, your internet?  I did see you use IE, which is strange because for me the lag is too high. Turrets respond way to slowly in IE and I know several players that say the same as me. I can't use anything but SA Flash. The question is why does IE work so well for you and not for others and why do mouse controls work so well for you and not others? We should not have to have a gaming rig for a browser based game.

Hi

As stated, the YT description has my specs but I'll quote it below

 

*TO USE MOUSE CONTROL*

- Load a Tanki game on IE or Firefox

- Click on "Full Screen" in the top right of the Tanki UI

- Click on "Allow"

- If the cursor is showing, simply click and it will work

 

Laptop Specs: i7-3537u, 8GB RAM, GeForce GT 720M

Mouse: Roccat Kova+ at 800 DPI

Tanki Settings: All visual settings boxes unchecked

 

You cannot see the browser because it is on full-screen and I did crop the video, but take my word for it.

I do not know why it doesn't work for you. My laptop was bought for £500, so it is not really a gaming rig.

 

Edit: My internet has an upload speed of 15mbps

 

 

When have you played the game last time?

Who are you referring to?

To Canadian_Eh :)

He start to sound as a forum ghost.

 

We know about technical issues and fixes are scheduled to next release. Flash becomes less and less supported, this is why we released mouse controls turned off by default. But he seems to hate developers with the passion I guess...

[Amagi 1,728]

@Canadian_Eh

I don't think the devs are that ignorant to see all these complaints go over their heads.

Hazel is just collecting feedback from those where mouse controls actually work.

I'm sure they're hard at work to fix everything. There is also major uproar and disapproval in the Russian community too, with the original post having 226 down votes.

I played yesterday.

 

Not sure what you mean by forum ghost.

Hazel, I'm sorry if my anger always seems to be directed at you but you are the only one who ever responds. Where is the community manger, he should be the one here discussing this update.

 

I do not hate developers. I actually have a lot of respect for you and your skill, but my issue is with some of the decisions that have been made lately and I'm clearly not the only one. I'm just one of the few not afraid to say what others are thinking. Do you not find it strange that there are now 35 pages of negative complaints and the only thing you or anyone else from your team have to say is "Are you left-handed..." We as players and buyers expect answers to our questions and resolution to the problems we complain about.

 

ADDED: Hazel (I think your name is also Semyon, correct?)  Made there needs to be a better way of testing future updates. Is it possible to release updates to only certain servers? I don't mean the test servers, I mean regular severs. This way the update could be tested in real world environment but not effect all servers.
