Changes in the battle creation system

[theFiringHand 21,351]

I'm sorry. I think the pass is still too expensive. But if everyone buys a PRO pass, we can all make and play battles on rare maps, with the additional bonus of getting away from druggers.  This is the first chance I get to encourage people to buy the Pass.

 

This is also a side-benefit of the update. We cannot just go and kill off supplies, but if more people start playing pro battles, the drugging will hopefully become more manageable.

Reply from : "That will be really weird. If that will keep occurring, map related mission will be removed. We created missions to be doable during normal play. If they will be no longer doable, we'll change them"

No, please. Map-related missions encourage people to play on less-known maps.

 

Will the system start out with battles on rarer maps? For example, after the server restart, will all the battles be Noise and Polygon, or will the battle-creation system make some Siege and Station battles as well?

Lol side benefit? This is the main benefit IMO. :D

I really have no idea. But as Hazel said, missions should be playable in default play.

^ Yes please, if the map missions are removed, the 'Battle!' button should be designed to make rarer maps, but at some times, popular ones as well.

My reaction on seeing this update...

 

Anyone else feeling this, upvote this post.

I still don't think this will reduce mults/saboteurs... but cause intense frustration...

If it doesn't make unknown maps more popular, I'm doubling the rate of how many articles/day I write for my Map Revival series... This is actually a really hot topic :O so many posts in around 2 minutes... maybe Tanki World Records should get a new record.

I would upvote, but I ran out of likes.

Yes....Map diversity is key to the game and enjoyment and needs to be encouraged.

We'll see how the system evolves and make adjustments accordingly.

Also, if it doesn't... I'm just gonna ask people like Jwimmer and beaku to help me out and revive more of them maps.

This is an interesting update, I do understand the benefits of it especially for newcomers. Just wondering what the overall feedback would be.

[The_Pakistani 16,768]

Next update will be pay  $10/day to login :)

[r_I_already_won0 2,339]

Yes-should be something like 4 Noise battles, 2 Siege battles, 2 Subway battles, 2 Deathtrack battles, 4 Polygon battles, etc.

[beaku 2,656]

First thought was: Tanki is finally Pay-2-play.

After second reading: Seems like a well thought out update. It'll be quite rough transition, but it'll pay off eventually. Finally I can afford PRO battle pass each month :D... This will definitely increase number of PRO battles and decrease the issue of supply abuse especially at low ranks.

By the way, what happened to those DM tournaments? It's been over 2 months, I'm sure, that you've removed them from the game to "remake" them. 

 

 

I hope I don't come across as being disrespectful... I'm just not in a great mood right now.

Good for you! :)  Just buy the PRO pass people!

I mean, it'll still be 3400 crystals for us two, I think...

Yes, we're aware that the transition might be a bit tough for some, which is why we added the extra Pro Battle Pass days.

 

I understand change is hard. Just try to bear with us please. We're overhauling something that has been in the game for a long time. But just because it's been in the game for a long time, doesn't mean it was 100% good. We're trying to finally get it right, and it's not easy. I hope we can get all of you to support this.

[Phoenix.Rising 2,519]

Yes. After the update is rolled out, you will still be able to join any battle in the list. These will all be standard 15 minute battles that were created by the Quick Battles mechanism (the “Battle” button), and if you’re in a battle, you can always invite your friends to join it, assuming there are open slots.

 

This... this is where the entire mult plague starts.. it will only get worse..

 

GGWP, Tanki.

Can you tell me a legitimate reason that you're removing this? A real reason?

DM Tournaments just weren't interesting enough to people, that's why we removed them. We're bringing back the matchmaking mechanism behind them, but probably not for DM Tournaments, rather for official clan battles. And no, you don't come across as disrespectful.  :)

 

I just spent 1 Million to get m4 combo , now most pro battles created by users will disable mu's 

My 1 Million crystal & and the money i spent on it and my m4 combo will go to hell

come on guys this can't happen seriously your game will DIE , I got bored from this game after you removed paysafecard and saying itsn't on our end , its been almost 2 month's, and now after this update i'm actually thinking of quitting this , at least do a poll and see what players wants

Actually Paysafecard is working again.

Actually, that applies the other way round too. Many people like you will create drug wars and non MU'ers will avoid those. All in all, this update will lead to more distinct categorisation which is good for all players. Supply users will get their drug wars and non supply users will find a lot more battles to suit them.

I mean, it'll still be 3400 crystals for us two, I think...

That's a save of 1600 crystals a month.. Quite a lot for a free player like me at least.

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

How about that we just play the game? Why every update need to make this game more complicated?
