why is tanki unfair and people are leaving?

drugs

[austen_pierce 1,948]

Missions force me to play standard battles with awful Overdrives. With mission and mission chain rewards so high now for the summer I'd be foolish to stop doing missions, but that's the limit of my interest in standard batles.

 

Then I smash in PRO.

 

Speaking of which Tanki needs to ask themselves why most PRO battles are no-supply. IMO it's clear evidence that players hate supplies. My recommendation would be for Tanki to remove all supplies and reimburse players in crystals for supplies in their garage. Even if this means they have to raise prices elsewhere to keep the economy balanced. Players hate supplies - get with the program!

[ghost-guns 1,486]

Right, well I was going to quit the game for the summer and I have decided I definitely am going to now.

 

Check this out. I have emerald at 46% thunder protection, and viking almost M4 but I'm now getting two-shot by thunder! This hasn't happened to me in a long time. It's the same old story of tanks being too weak, weapons being too strong and drugs ruining the game. It seems thunder is now also flavour of the month. All of those micro upgrades were a complete waste of time! One double damage or double armour is worth far more than any number of MU's. What is the purpose to keep on playing? No point in micro upgrading anymore as it's been proved to be a waste of time. I just could not believe it when thunder did so much damage! The whole point of getting emerald and a medium tank was to stop this from happening. It took a long time to build a good damage and my effort should be worth more. I just can't be bothered with this game anymore!

The balance is all wrong. When you visit a new map you don't even get to see what it is like because of the one-shot kills. And is just about to lose another player because of it.

This game is dying because of one bad decision followed by further bad decisions made by the developers. Instead of fixing the problems like the horrible client, always ignoring the known cheaters, having bad game physics (where the emphasis is on acrobatics instead of reality), they just keep trying gimmick after gimmick. They ignore suggestions by the players, have poor testing of new ideas for the game (When's the last time anyone talked about being on a test server). They have made it impossible for players to improve there lot in the game just through game play. Then there are many who play who don't like the use of supplies, but they make them pay for  the ability to choose. Then to make matters worse, if you choose the game you want to play, you can't use the results of those games for missions. Many have spent tons of money to upgrade equipment just to have it nullified by some stupid change by the Dev's with no compensation. They keep changing the rules without improving the product. Server lag is still terrible even after the consolidation to fewer servers because of lack of players. The list can go on and on as to why the game is failing. It has simply become an overly complicated and frustrating game to play that keeps getting worse with every change the developers make. That is why so many are leaving.

 

When I started there were over 100,000 players during peak times on the servers, now they are having a hard time cracking 40,000. In the old days it was hard sometimes just to get on a server. Today it's a ghost town. I've seen the writing on the wall and have stopped spending. I'll ride the ship down because I love the game but I recognize it's only a matter of time before they close the doors. So Dev's you better start writing those resumes and players you better start looking for another game to play, this one is dead.

Here are some more factors based on priority:

• Mults
• Saboteurs
• Less Battle Mods to take care of it
• Some of the servers contain mods at anytime of day while some do not
• Funny Updates

Thanks.

Do you really think that these mults and saboteurs are random players and there are not enough mods to take care? Don't be so naive.

[MJROCKS05 428]

1. Report them and they will get punished.

2. You know that buyers mostly are not professional players, so just play pro battles without drugs or maybe XP/BP and show them what you got ;)

3. Also like I said, report them.

 

I don't know why are you people always get angry because of those issues, I'm playing this game for 5-6 years, and I never had problem with those people.

 

Title edited.

The ignorance of your post baffles me and your solutions are one the dumbest I've heard. Its players like you too which make people rage and abuse. And tanki has a fair share of them, leaving some mods most others have solutions just like yours... You guys know it already reporting doesnt work, getting the team to report a mult is just one pain in the butt (and now half of them r noob drugger russians so, forget it) and the next problem is battle mods. Except for one time (when i was at brigadier, 2 yrs ago), Ive never seen a battle mod take action in a battle (even though it says "your report has been sent"). Again, buyers always have a good excuse: "If you dont like drugs, go play a pro battle", makes me wanna smash their head with a keyboard... pro battles dont help you do daily missions(which r a gr8 way to earn crys and drugs), a lot of mults join pro battles and ruin them and nowadays all pro battles are filled with druggers, not a lot of people join NS battles.

 

This is just a small portion of it, anyone smart and experienced enough reading this knows that there are millions of flaws in the game right now, the problem is neither do the players want to acknowledge it (yup, tanki "community" sucks as compared to other games) and nor the devs want to fix it

 

RANT OVER

[Fluffy_Puppy 590]

Several times I have felt like quitting, but I still haven't given up...I have reached my final rank, I reckon. Brigadier is my final rank, I doubt I'll rank ever again. Wasted my crystals on some dumb M2s...bought heaps of useless paints. What really annoys me is spawn killing, enemies drugging on you, and Magnums. It's not worth playing Noise anymore, with Red magnums camping. I guess I only play for fun nowadays, don't really bother with missions. I'm hoping for Thunder M2, even though I never play seriously anymore, but it would be fun to test. My K/D is 0.62, my stats with every turret, hull, module and paint are terrible. I think I may quit after buying Thunder M2, simply because there's not much to do on my account anymore, and maybe I'll go on a low account instead. It took 2 years to get to Brigadier, if I work hard on a low account I can make it just as good, hopefully. Tanki's kind of ruined now, yet I just can't leave, I'm too addicted. But I'm seriously thinking of starting over, at least on a low account of mine.

I quit this game a while ago just cause it got boring and it wasn't like before but I guess games have to change to get "better" but the forum is honestly the best place for me

Yep, forum is the best place to relax. You can also have fun in "Forum Game" section, and other sections in the forum, there is always something fun to do in the forum, not only In-game. ;)

[WaspShaft98 114]

only thing worth staying for in this game is xp/bp, all else is buyers territory

[Fluffy_Puppy 590]

Yeah, they're always introducing more options for buyers, like the update yesterday  :angry:

Tanki is basically pay-to-win now.

[WaspShaft98 114]

I keep seeing people (mostly noobs) saying get rid of drugs.

 

Get you some drugs boy!

 

Come play against legend 20's - 40's like I do everyday who are all m4 and the best protections and loaded with drugs. Then say you don't want drugs. You have a very hard time beating them with drugs. without drugs you have no chance.

we dont even want to a chance to beat them.

we just dont like to play in supply enabled battles.

[Fluffy_Puppy 590]

Too many druggers, spawn killers. All these drugs at high ranks - wow. I'd hate to be Legend.

 

Honestly this game is dying and I may quit soon ._.

[55.leira 282]

What if this game was Pay To Play instead of Pay To Win? You devs would still make money and we (frustated players looking for a good game) would be somehow happy.

I've only seen flying hackers, from how i see it, unless i spend a ton of money on the game, it just won;t be enjoyable, i feel they balanced the price of crystals a little too late, it was only until recently prices for buying Russian crystals was 3 times cheaper than buying in another currency, that's what put me off eventually.

That s not the way the game model works unfortunately, its always been based on the amount of drugs one has, not on the amount of skill, then again the developers tell us otherwise

The supplies have temporary affects where as the modules are more permanent.

Nah man, it has become normal now to drug non-stop throughout entire battles. Everyone is drugging so you're toast if you don't do the same.

 

Regarding the module - what I was saying is I have 46% protection but still get killed too easily.

 

Oh well more time to focus on real life now.

[Strikechard123 241]

supplies. the answer for the title.

[Gabe2607 499]

Just a terrible vicious cycle.

 

1- New players arrive. They get roasted by 99% of players drugging all time. Free players leave writing terrible reviews.

2- Few decide to stay, buy drugs and follow the "go always straight pushing numbers constantly".

3- Drugs give euphoria and power. No need to learn skills when so powerful.

4- Several druggers decide to leave the game: either because the game is becoming druggers vs druggers (so Pay to Play, not Pay to Win) or because spending money all time is causing them troubles with parents.

5- Amount of players decreases constantly.

6- Quality of players went underground.

7- Always less new players arrive... always less stay...

For example, i have a rail that normaly does 1500 dmg but when i shoot a druger it does 300 dmg moreover they are constantly spawning that ******ed repair kit, the fact that they can 1/2 shoot you when u must 20 shoot them is just ridiculous, it reminds my of darkorbit. I was happy playing pro battles until they came with that infamous mission update wich forced me to play with those ******ed druggers in order to make cristals since battles give next to nothing. On a personal note i think devs should realise that some players just hate drugs no matter how they put them and should stop trying to push drugs into us like with that overdrive feature they are going to implement. Thats one.

Also there are those wtf moments when your shoots miss for some unknown reason or your tank gets stuck into "something" usualy because of lag and those horrible coliders and map junctions they have or the game camera that most of the time zooms your tank to the point u cant see anything but it.

Tanki also apears to dont care about free players but they forget that they can also review the game on steam and other sites :P

There seems to be less pro battles and more supplies being used... more than ever.
