Option to disable specific type of suppiles / drop boxes instead of them all


Recommended Posts

LOL I didn't even know this topic exists thanks for merging but I was thinking to allow only mines to be a option would be better than only allowing lets say repair kits. It would make mine hunts more easier to establish.

This idea proposes an option to disable ANY supply, so you could select any custom combination of supplies when creating a battle.

When creating games, premium players are allowed to choose whether or not supplies will be allowed in the game. I think that this could be made even better. Instead of just being all supplies or none, I think that players can have the option to include or not include specific supplies. That way if someone doesn't want instant health to be in the game, but DOES want the other ones, they can have it that way. I think this would be a great step in improving the quality and enjoyment of custom-made games.

This is a great suggestion.  Once this is in place, you could add a second option to further customize a game, so that there is a limit on specific supplies or all supplies used during the game.  This may help with balance.  It would be also nice to migrate this to all (not just customized) games, because some games are totally unbalanced once supplies are introduced.  Some sides just overuse any one or combination of supplies and this makes the game unbalanced and no fun for others.

I agree. Like in XP/BP . It would be nice to be disable DA. DD . Mines and Repair kits but leave Speed Boost enabled or in Fire+Wasp/Hornet battles . Disabling DA . Repair kits. And mines but enabling DD and Speed

Congratulations! You just torpedoed any chances left this idea might have ever had. ;)

 

And I'm okay with that for many reasons, one, there are too many options already for PRO battles that we can't even recognize or remember the many option icons that are supposed to let us know what option the battle has enabled or disabled, two, because many people use the many options to trap other players that are not putting attention on the icons or they just got confused, and finally the Fire Wasp thing.

 

But there could be options to enable/disable some sets of supplies, for example:

 

- Enable/disable option for DA,DD, RK and Mines. (not individually) We can call these 'health related supplies' or 'life and death supplies'

- Enable/disable option for Speed Boost (individually)

- Enable/disable option for Gold Box (individually)

 

We can add these options to this improved version of create options:

See in the image above I gave a separate check box for Gold Box, the same can be done for Speed Boost, that when selected can activate Speed Boost independently of the other supply settings.

Supply boxes are be turned on and off in pro battles, but they don't give the ability to enable of disable specific ones.

 

When the matchmaking system comes to Tanki Online, custom battles must give players the ability to choose to enable or disable specific types of supply boxes.

 

For example, players can create a new custom battle, enabling double armor, double damage, speed boost and mines, but disable repair kits.

 

Please make sure that players soon have the ability to enable and disable supply boxes independently as they wish.

Gold boxes ON - Supplies OFF

Allow the situation above, as some tankers would like to drop gold boxes in battles with such settings.

 

Also, there should be a topic for very basic ideas, to not waste space for topics for such ideas. :)

Topic merged

 

I highly doubt that this would be done, since gold boxes are also supplies and can be used as such. So if this is to be implemented, it would be part of a system that allows you to choose which supplies to enable. I.e. this topic's idea.

 

As for a topic for ideas, we already had it before but we closed it because it was pointless, since players posted ideas there and no one else ever bothered to read them. It was basically a dump for small ideas, which is wrong.

I desperately want this to take place, and 100% give my support behind it. I thought of the same thing today. Frankly, Tanki is so taken over by supply-spamming druggers at this point, I'd love to just have a nice strategic game with no supplies and only Repair Kit drops. It'd be much more strategic rather than merely smacking "2" and "3" over and over to brute-force your way into an enemy base.

 

Frankly, Tanki should streamline the Custom Battle system as a whole, and are fools for not investing in it. People want these games that provide more strategic options; not stale Noise till-10-flags battles and drug-filled Serpuhov CTF. Those aren't what the players want. We want a better game (and maybe a more organized and easily understood Custom Game options menu).

 

Tanki honestly needs to just invest more in battle settings (and better options for the players to choose from) than in the matchmaking system. People can find their own battles, but they can't make new settings that would make the game infinitely more enjoyable, especially if battles with those settings could auto-generate.
