Remove Annoying Missions


Recommended Posts

Don't you just hate it when you get a mission like 'Get Experience in Tribute 0/300' or 'Get experience in Skylark 0/100.' Sure, I know I can change it but it wastes my free change (I don't usually pay to change missions). It's really hard to complete them, as well because only people who have the same Mission will make that Battle. Skylark is hardly ever found and it's a huge Map, that can hold 24 players. 24 people won't join Skylark for the fun of it, though. Tanki should replace these Missions with ones like 'Get Experience in Rio 0/300' and 'Get Experience in Arena.' People go out of their way to finish these Missions because they have high rewards but it's really annoying to waste your free Change on a Mission with a good reward.

No they shouldn't be removed. This game is for fun, and fun can be achieved by trying out new things; sure, it is boring if you make a battle on a fairly-unknown map like Skylark and nobody joins, but that mission at least initiates you into a new map, and I think the aim of such missions is just that people will hopefully play more maps and not just the regular ones like Polygon, Noise, etc.

My best friend has barely any time to play Tanki and he can't spend his (maximum of) 30 minutes a day, trying to make a new battle that no one joins. It's really annoying, now, when you get missions like 'Collect Gold Box' '300 in DM Mode' and one of those ones, when you need to finish one. And I hate DM. It's really frustrating getting these Missions and taking forever to complete 'em.

What do you mean by "It wastes my free change"? That's exactly what the free change is for - replacing missions you don't like. You change that mission for free, therefore you're not wasting anything. The addition of these missions is the first step that developers took in order to add variety to the maps played in the game, because the missions on rare maps encourage players to create and play battles on these rare maps. And I think that this method, even though it needs improvement, has already proved to be quite effective in reviving dead maps.

look players get into a rut and stick to the same games ..its time to change up the battles and with the help of missions this brings new life to old games..

 

think about doing  the same job or route every single day for over 6 months it will end up getting to u ..its better to mix it up

I can understand the reviving of dead Maps but it's incredibly hard to just find that battle, you can't find any battle in most Servers (that's not completely one-sided) to suit Skylark and Tribute. I actually like Skylark but it's so annoying having to find a Skylark Battle because no-one plays it.

 

The idea is sound, the execution is lacking. These missions don't seem to help much, it can be a royal pain in the derrière trying to find a battle to complete the mission.

^+ Agreed.

The reason they make these missions is to encourage players to play in unpopular maps

yeah to forcing them on playing maps which are a flop and are hated by the community

I can't really agree with you here, it is only very rare you get a map no one plays on. And I think it is good to encourage people to play a variety of different maps. Plus if you don't like the map you can just use your free change

People saying it is trying to revive dead maps---- it doesn't. I NEVER see Skylark maps, and tribute games are always boring because NOBODY joins them. Clearly they are not working to do what they are supposed to do, so I completely agree with the idea of removing them.

I think your not right! The mission are made to be harder and need to complete then!

 

How are you supposed to complete them if the Map isn't even available? :huh:

Deck-9 & Canyon were the least used maps in the game. But, when they got removed, alot of people disagreed with it - so much that they had to put that Ramp from Canyon into the map 2042. Removing them is not a good idea.

Actually he misinterpreted what I said, I didn't say to remove the whole Map, just the Mission ...

Sorry, pardon me. Yes, I do agree that the maps are a bit hard to find in most servers and to top it off, they're pretty boring as well since you only see matches with 4-5 players in it. I find it boring as well - even playing in Tribute is a bit boring as it is hard to find. 

To be honest I've got no solution to it. But, these missions do have a fair reward... a Generalissimo gets, I think, 3,360 crystals for earning 300 experience in a specific map.
