Does anybody listen to our ideas?

[Unexplainable 111]

Bwamp. :wub:

[BSG-62 512]

So Tanki, ignored any great ideas today?

[Maf 32,333]

Wait a second, are you serious? You are trying to say that you are keeping I&S open, just so we could boost our post count??!

No. I already explained in previous posts that it was not what I meant.

[Maf 32,333]

Just saw Hazel's reply in a Russian topic.

 

"At the moment all out programmers are working on Unity and other planned updates. They have enough work to keep them occupied for at least another year and even extra people, who we plan to employ, won't affect the speed of releases for another few months."

 

So please, don't complain that your ideas are being ignored - there is simply not enough time in devs' plans for them to go around picking up new ideas and adding them.

The only suggestion that was implemented was the premium accounts.... greedy dev's

drugs in the game should only work one at a time this would make the game more balanced as a drugged tank is impossible to kill

How does that explain the premium accounts? conveniently that was the only one they accepted....

I already explained it multiple times. Premium accounts were suggested as soon as Tanki Online started, which was more than 5 years ago. Developers couldn't add it back then for their own reasons, but now they finally got the chance. The fact that they are adding it after this topic was created was merely a coincidence. They did NOT go on the forum, see this topic and think "oh, let's add this and ignore everything else".

It only takes about 30 minutes everyday , really. You don't need to stay on that one section 24/7....

Besides, if they are so 'busy' why do they have time to develop the updates that the majority disapprove of?

It's easy to just go and create a long list of interesting ideas. It's insanely difficult to actually add them all to the game. Like the famous proverb goes - "easier said than done"

Your idea of "majority" = people on the forum. Unfortunately, the thousand people on the forum does not represent hundreds of thousands of players, who don't use the forum, so even if an update topic has -1000 upvotes, it usually does not represent the whole community.

From a mathematical point of view what you say is irrelevant.

The forum, however large or small it may be, is the main feedback means for the company. Even if it represents 1/10.000 of the actual players' base, that's all there is.

What you say - should it was true -  is the proof that Developers simply don't care for players' ideas.

Which, for me works just fine, I have no problem with that.

It's them that want to persuade the players that they care.

 

But, ideas is one thing and complains is another.

Players' ideas might well be ignored.

Complains, no.

Any company that ignores its customers complains, sooner or later pays the price. :mellow:

[drazeruzumaki 5,021]

hey i just realised :o  :o

they dont listen to our ideas....

they read them :mellow:

[E.Leclerc 1,887]

Bump.

[Bydo 20,210]

wrong they do i had the gold box`s changed from the last minute in game from dropping to earlier in battles ..plus other ideas the more u speak the more they listen..also post in problem and solutions with proof and they will change it

[BSG-62 512]

100%

ok

[blacksouleater 190]

That really only proves what everyone knows. They "could" fix whatever they want, however, if it takes away from the bank you can forget it.

No matter how right and deserving the idea may be. Sad

[E.Leclerc 1,887]

Hi everybody!

[Darren4Turbo 4,913]

They're right now working on TankiX, they might begin to review our ideas when they will be done with that.

[E.Leclerc 1,887]

They do NOT care.

[DangDawg 20]

They do NOT care.

EXACTLY!

[BSG-62 512]

They just want our money so don't spend a cent. 

[Maf 32,333]

So you want the developers to support themselves, their business and the game for free? Sure....

 

Now please enlighten me who's going to pay for developers' salaries, server support, maintenance costs, marketing costs and other expenses?

it used to be just fine: people paying for crystals and the like but now, it almost feels like they don't  care about how players want the game to be.

There was a lot of opposition to the Premium accounts but still, they went ahead. The way this game is going, it seems to be persuading everyone to spend money or be left behind (or leave, like all of my friends in the game). It's still a free-to-play game but when i'm actually playing, it never feels like that. 

 

In short, i feel as if the game is geared towards gaining money now rather than letting players have a good time.
