Changes in the battle creation system

[Triath 130]

Predictions on the 3rd alteration which will bring a major change in the game.

 

It may fully micro upgrade the parameters and will cost around 300k.

I'm fed up with these updates! They are dreadful. I only used to play 60 min battles and now with this there is never any. Don't understand why on earth they changed it. I ain't playin this game anymore until they scrap this update. I think this is the end of this game now:(

[r_Vexation2 28]

I'm a midfielder, always have been, whether it was firebird, isida, freeze, twins, etc... , I play maps with cover, buildings, multiple elevations where I can get into close combat. 

 

This system doesn't cater to my skills, and equipment, I play maps like Barda, Silence, Cross, Year 2042, Noise, Forest, etc..., only a handful of maps are suitable for my garage and expertise to join, if I specialized in long range battles where shaft, rail, smoky, thunder, etc excel, they also have maps that are advantageous to their skill set and equipment  such as .

 

I will not use the battle button to select battles for me, as it is, I only find 2 or 3 suitable existing battles for my "Skill Set" on my designated servers, often I have to have to scan a 1/2 dozen or more servers for good battles.

 

I realize this situation I place myself in is caused by my refusal to spend money,but due to what I feel is excessive costs, since, the full M3 garage I acquired including almost every protection paint available at the time, taking aprox. 2 yrs and purchasing close to 4 million crystals to get there, only to have the the game I supported reduce my success into a worthless pile of excrement, virtually reducing my status back to recruit in an M2 battlefield, and then they have the audacity to  ransom my previous status for an additional 15 million crystals, at which point I am sure they will ransom my status again.

 

Not only did I support the company for 2+yrs financially, I dedicated my time to the forum, and e-sports community, fostered fair play, and promoted the game through promotion of team participation.

 

This behavior by a company is In essence, extreme arrogance, which I have witnessed through continuous predatory monetization tactics.

This can make the game so boring... Playing always in the same maps or the maps that the company considers are the "most used" by the players.  Personally I can't stand playing too many times in the same maps.  When I've played in the same maps for several days the only thing that makes me play another day is the possibility of creating a battle in some rare map like duality for example.  Maybe there are maps that are almost unused but precisely these maps help to keep the interest in the game.  The reason is not so difiicult to understand, is very simple: variety.  So what if one doesn't like any of the maps that are available at the moment and what if one does not like pro battles? One just would have to play another game that day, not tanki, and wait until one can stand playing again in the same overused maps: serpuhov, rio, etc.

By the way I like tanki very much, but the variety and the possibility of playing in whatever map one likes has been essential for me until now.

I only have rail and hornet,

 

so for non-pro pass user, there is only random map with random people,

 

if the battle button send me to island map, I am dead. as I need long range map to survive,

 

so???

[desroyer13_the_dark 0]

so confusing.       :huh:

[austen_pierce 1,948]

RIP all the Railers and Shafters out there who rely on maps like Monte Carlo, Brest, Highways, and Lost Temple. Good luck finding a suitable battle through 'the button'!

 

Tanki designers either A) completely forgot about you or more likely B) felt there are 'better' ways for you to experience the game. #sarcasm

[cray_TheChosenOne 38]

Bruh! The 1 day pro battle pass removed my 1 month pro battle pass 2 times in a row! Please fix this!

[OKDad70 862]

So far, I do not like this. All battles are pro battles now. You cannot pretend people like the battle button if nobody is in non-Pro battles.

 

I do not like it. Worst part is the defaults leave all parms standard except being longer.

 

If this change sticks, please set the Pro-battle defaults to turn off supplies and MUs. Leave it optional, but have the starting default turn off supplies.

 

Also, have a time limit always defaulted. That is, always have a default time limit set until someone selects to turn it off.

 

 

I will give this change some time, but I do not like it.

 

Also, you announced the confirmation button would go away. The confirmation button for the garage is still there. It is annoying. It needs to go away.

 

If someone goes to the garage, they want to stay in the battle. The inactivity-timer will kick them out if they stay in the garage, and if they want to exit, they can exit from the garage. The confirmation box for going to the garage from the battle is just nuisance. I believe you did it just to annoy players and discourage them from going to the garage during battles. Please stop it. Please remove the confirmation dialog as promised.

If someone clicks the battle button, the first priority should be missions. The battle button should always use the highest-reward mission as the first criteria for battle selection (after rank).

 

That might make the battle button more usable.

 

You claim it is popular, but you have not given it time for the newness to wear off. It is still novel. It is too early to make your stated conclusions.

[murcielagoes 331]

this may seem a bit too vague for this update topic but, for future updates
https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=u-Yn_iHhPmk (watch vid)

putting more and more pay-to-win features can lead games to servers shut down, watch your step with these updates Tanki

[OKDad70 862]

Cedric, be sure to emphasize in the front-page notes, and perhaps the Vlog, that the battle button will select from the game-modes turned on.

 

Tell players then can get only CTF if CTF is the only mode-button they have turned on. Figuring that out has helped me dislike it less, but I am still not happy about this change yet.

[asghar-1 15]

 rip tanki rip cedric rip all the develpors

Seems as tho' Tanki is getting ever so close to pay-to-play. Sad, when the non-buyers go away the buyers will be left with relatively few tanks to battle with... oh well, I will play as long as it is free--we'll see what this update brings--jury is still out

[Unique_Legacy 19]

Crappy update!

Forced to drug! Every pro battle has become hardcore drugs + MU on.

WTH tanki?

The battle creation system is going towards Tanki X. Tanki X is also the same unbalanced battle and buyers start with an advantage. It won't be a global hit just by the graphics. 

After tanki x grinds some money and flops they will make Tanki Y and will continue to do so.

Every battle for the non buyers are like hell a terrible experience.

By 2030 there will be Tanki X, Y, Z, A, B, C, D, E, F, G, H, I, J, K, L, M, N, O, P, Q, R, S, T and so on. After letters get finished they will start using numbers like Tanki 1, 2, 3, 4 and 5 :D

This update sucks big time. I dont like druggers and drugging, Now when i join a probattle it always is with the possibility to drug available. By this update Tanki is chasing players away to other games. Even more then before, and I tought that wasnt possible.

[41tkbat 52]

It might be hard to see the sense in this update right now, but when considering the upcoming updates it will make more sense.

If that is teh truth why are these updates not activated at teh same time as this one? Its just impossible to find a real pro-battle without the possibility to drug. This is one more update that makes tanki less fun. Tanki seems te have the purpose to detroy itself. Not only by this update, but also by the last 5 or 6 upgrades.

[41tkbat 52]

You see, you should have listened to me and play PRO battles when they were not infested with noob druggers :lol:

I used to play pro when they were available, but since tanki is that stupid to make non-druggers buy the propass instead of making drugging possible with the propass there were not many probattles. Now it is impossible to find a probattle where drugging is not possible. And listening to you? Come on, you didnt earn 1 single xp without drugging and send me "prove" in my mail just proving you end up 5th or 6th in battles while your keys 1, 2, 3, and 4 are smoking coz you use these so much. How can i take somebody with your morals and attitude seriously

I have found only one, but only one normal (supplies ON) Polygon CP battle at RU2:

 

 

 

 

Result of the one and only normal (supplies ON) Polygon CP battle at RU2:

 

 

 

 

Interesting:

 

 

 

 

^ Mults are chating and practicing Parkour tricks in the middle of the battle.

---

If you ask me why I don't create a Polygon CP battle (with supplies ON) - I don't want and I can't wait for an hour (~) 15 more players to join.

 

Give us more normal battles and do something with this mult plague. Thanks!

[BlueDragon_tamki 3,204]

My position on the scoreboard doesn't matter because the fact I played PRO battles proves that I earned at least 1 XP without using supplies. Therefore, your argument is invalid :lol:

lol it depends on the player of course :p

[galziv01 69]

My son asks this question:

My only M3 weapon is isida. What If the battle button sends me to monte-carlo or camp or other maps for long range weapons?

[BlueDragon_tamki 3,204]

My son asks this question:

he does have a point there because Isida is nearly dead (5%-15% chance of meeting at least one in battle)
