Quick battles and multi-account management

[theFiringHand 21,351]

 

Tankers!

 

We’ve got some cool new features coming with tomorrow’s server restart at 02:00 UTC. Here’s what you’ll find when you log into the game tomorrow.

 

System for multi-account support

 

After the update, you’ll be able to save login credentials for multiple accounts, and select which one you want to use when accessing the game. You can do this by clicking “Remember me” when logging in, which will add that account to your list of accounts, so that you can choose it when logging into the game.

 

So, if you’re secretly GodMode_On, it will be much easier to switch to your invincible self whenever you want!

 

By the way, this mechanism will work both in the web version and in the downloadable client version of the game.

 

Quick Battles

 

The “Quick Battles” feature we mentioned in a recent V-LOG will be rolled out with the next update. When accessing the game client (both downloadable and web version), you’ll see a button marked “Battle” on top of the battle list window. Clicking on this button will automatically take you to a battle that best fits your rank.

 

Additionally, the battle filters will also apply to Quick Battles. So, if you’ve filtered out DM battles, and only enabled TDM and CP, the Battle button will pick one of those battle types for you.

 

Please note that for now, the Quick Battles feature will only send you to battles on your current server. In a future update, the Battle button will be able to send you to the best battle for your rank on any server.

 

Other changes

 

As mentioned in a recent V-LOG, after the update, players without a Pro Pass will only be able to create 15 minute battles. For this reason, the “inactivity” time in-game is being reduced from 5 minutes to 2 minutes, since skipping one third of a battle does not make sense.

 

So, make sure you log into the game tomorrow and check out the changes for yourself!

 

Full patch notes can be found here.

nice update. I like the green ones.

 

note that _not_ the possible rank ranges are changed - just the DEFAULT rank ranges

 

default rank range = rank range that is pre-set when you create a battle

rank rannge = max possible rank range that you can set if you manipulate the rank sliders

 

 

Patch Update #426

• Implemented system for managing multiple accounts on login

• Implemented “Battle” button for Quick Battles. The button will automatically send the player to a battle on that server that best fits that player’s rank. Please note that this system:

  • doesn't work for PRO battles (ignores them)

  • sends players only to recently started battles

  • sends players to maps that are closer to being full

  • doesn't evaluate players equipment or skill

• Non-Premium and Non-Pro Battle Pass users now can only create 15min battles

• Fixed issues with Paysafecard

• Fixed Freeze bug, where tank is still frozen after respawn

• Fixed bug with Lion T-B M3 incorrectly displaying 46% Twins resistance instead of 50% in battle

• Time of inactivity before kick has been decreased to 120 Seconds

• The time for autofinish to become active has been decreased to 180 seconds.

• The Autofinish timer has now been decreased to 30 seconds

• Range for default battle created by Legend reduced to General

• Range for default battle created by Generalissimo reduced to Lieutenant-General

• Range for default battle created by Commander reduced to Major General

• Range for default battle created by Field Marshal reduced to brigadier

• Range for default battle created by Marshall reduced to Colonel

• Range for default battle created by Gen. reduced to Colonel

• Range for default battle created by Lieutenant-General reduced to Lieutenant colonel

• Range for default battle created by Major General reduced to   Major

• Range for default battle created by brigadier reduced to Major

• Range for default battle created by Colonel reduced to captain

• Range for default battle created by Lieutenant colonel reduced to Senior Lieutenant

Brilliant :D can't wait for quick battles to search all the servers tho :3 it's what makes it unique. And yay! Less rank ranges where M4 gizmos rek M2 majors :D (well... just 1 rank higher but... it's a start xD )

Awesome!

[SHOAIB.ZAFAR 402]

Good!

[r_I_already_won0 2,339]

Will the "BATTLE" mechanism favor battles with more players, or do you have an equal chance of joining a battle with 2 players in it?

[S-H-A-R-V-A-N 84]

Nice :)

[Maf 32,300]

Useful!
Finally there's an update that hopefully won't result in 50 pages of complaints and ragequits :D

Looks like space will be filled faster than before.. Time to use that rusty autoclicker in Poly CP.

[KILL_BILL_CHAUHAN 2,505]

inactivity period is reduced for 15min battle or all battle?

[Viking4s 10,791]

"Non-Premium and Non-Pro Battle Pass users now can only create 15min battles" ????

But why ????

After the "Quick battles" update, we will be still able to create our own battles, right?

 

If not...

The quick sign-in sounds fast, but we still have to go to the sign in screen don't we?  :mellow:

But why ????

To make you buy a pro pass ^^

2 minutes inactivity is too less.....

[richardlord 32]

Update thoughts.  Personally, I dislike the decreased inactivity kick time, but my common sense tells me that it's a good update. Less pause time = less mult time = more active players.  Only reason I dislike it is because sometimes I have to go inactive and don't want to lose my score.  But then I'm hurting my team, so the update is a good thing.  

 

Slightly unhappy about not being able to create longer battles without a pro pass.  Not a problem with my main account, but on my lower one, it'll be difficult if I want to play a longer battle as I don't want to spare the crystals.  

 

New "battle" button is good.  Maybe add further customization down the road of what map you want to be put into?  That would help a lot with missions where you have to earn xp on certain maps.

 

Overall, a very good update.   :)

I like almost everything about this update. What I don't like is what's been done to the ranks.

[Kurt_KurtDGreat 2,259]

That's not cool at all, why would you change the ranks limit this much in this way? That's not a good update all, it will just restrict playing with lower ranks, yes we know that m3's now unlock at marshal But not all marshals are going to have m4's to play with legends , in some cases not even m3's so they go to play with lower ranks which is more suitable to them, And that's only from the game side, But what about Cyber Sport? Tournaments for low ranks clans and teams is not going to work like that, It needs a new system, As right now we have the English tournament Domination Junior, Teams are made from first lieutenant to marshal, And after this update they wont be able to play at all Together, The system is working fine as it is right now, Why make changes to the ranks system? Who asked for that? Please re consider this step again, It is going to kill and ruin many things on the game, and on top of it the cyber sport system for low ranks, and of course XP/BP formats too.

 

Thanks for Reading..

Sounds like it's gonna get canceled eh?

[Cyborg 3,189]

Interesting update, and pretty cool too.

 

No more comments before I try it out myself :)
