Changes in the battle creation system

[Dab1810 5]

Buying every turret & hull before upper ranks is usually a waste of crystals, however...

 

It's not uncommon to have a couple of hulls and turrets at low-to-mid levels for...

-trying out different equipment

- use on different maps

- use of different battle modes.

 

A Titan is not likely to capture many flags on Dusseldorf, just like a Wasp is unlikely to survive long in gaining CPs in Polygon.

however, Titan is more likely to defend flags a lot better, and Wasp is a lot more likely to cap flags in any battle

Actually, DM is the most popular mode, according to the Wiki.

i have earned over double the amount of experience in CTF than DM, even though i have played them almost the same amount of time

Fastest XP earning for me:

CP

 

CTF

TDM

 

DM

Doesn't mean it's not the most popular.

Why do you need them? You can't use them at once. Instead of all the worthless M1 you would have enough crystals to buy an M2 kit already.

You don't need them, actually. Look at my profile. I use one combo.

It's true that you technically do not need many m1s, but if a player thinks it's no fun playing with only one combo, he or she will need several to keep interest in playing.

Where did you see this? I need to see the exact quote.

 

Wiki not being a truly reliable source

Therefore the developers aren't a reliable source. That means that this whole game could be fake :o and that totally makes sense. I say this because the Wiki editors receive info directly from the devs.

Actually the wiki editors put in a lot of their own things. :p

 

In all seriousness though, that may be true but look at the battle list. For all practical purposes CTF is more popular than DM.  Most DM's I see have only a few players.

It's true that you technically do not need many m1s, but if a player thinks it's no fun playing with only one combo, he or she will need several to keep interest in playing.

Do you keep interest in playing when you still have M1s when at the rank of Colonel?  In fact, that is why many players quit or start new accounts; because they didn't manage their crystals effectively so they cannot compete anymore.

I think I've seen somewhere that CTF is the most popular game mode and it was measured in played hours as far as I know.

That's what I thought. Take a look at the Ratings page and people's profiles. Most of them have much more CTF hours than DM hours.

IDK. That's what the wiki says, so that's what I say...

Tanki Online must always remain a "Free For All" multiplayer game for all, like it was two years ago when I was able to create my own custom made battles.

Read: "Free-To-Play"

I just wanted to voice my own opinion of the new battle creation system....it's a horrible mess. If I have a CTF mission, clicking "battle" 10 times will send me to a DM or TDM map 9 times (sometimes the same map over and over) and the tenth time will send me to some obscure CTF map. Another thing is that the most common/popular maps before the change are rarely on in the new system. The other day I waited for almost an hour for a Brest/Noise/Rio map and gave up because they never generated. I know I could buy a Pro Pass and create them, but that's not going to happen since I have few crystals and I would rather spend it on equipment.

 

Just adding my $.02, because if you don't speak up, nothing will change.

You can use the battle mode filters to select only CTF. The battle button will then send you to CTF battles only. The second issue is kinda intentional. Increase in map diversity is a good thing and players aren't forced to play the same 5-6 maps over and over again.

First of all i dont't like this idea that we need pro battle pass or premuim account to create battle.
because of this there r less battles. The player with pro pass or premuim account creat pro battle most.
Crystals earning has been affected a lot. I used to earn money very fast in past but now because of this thing. i cant earn crystals.I strongly suggest please remove this thing or it will affect tanki a lot.And of course in past there were atleast 82 or 94 thousand players were playing tanki but now isee is only 43 thousand kind off so please remove this thing

1. If you want to play CTF, select the CTF filters. There are a lot of CTF battles.

 

2. The point is to increase map diversity. Everyone's sick of playing on Noise and Rio and you are contributing to the problem. Why can't you play on other maps instead of complaining you can't play on the same-old game dampers? It completely serves you right that you had to wait an hour, instead of trying out a new map. There's over 70 and you want to stick to 3 or 4? If you want to be that way, be that way. :)

 

It's a GOOD thing that the most popular maps aren't as common and less common maps are more common now.  It's a GOOD thing.  :rolleyes:

There can be more PRO Passes options: The 30 days pass can be for those that play a lot and have 1 or 2 accounts; and the play-hours passes can be for those that have multiple accounts or don't play often.

 

For this account, for example, I'd be happy to buy a Pass that gave me 30 hours of PRO play with a 60 days expiration for 500crys.

I actually like this, but agree that play hours will never fly. Instead, mimic the premium pass purchase options - so you can use crystals to buy 1 day, 1 week, or 1 month of Pro. Pricing would have to scale, yet slightly favor the 1 month package.

You have to realize that it takes a long time for the Wiki to catch up with the mad pace of parameter and other gameplay changes taking place these days. Yes, they receive their info from the devs, but seem to be in no hurry to update the site. IDK

 

Also, the above statement is completely meaningless because it does not take rank into consideration.

Why is there not any Noise or Wave battles anymore?

You have to pay to create battles now. Less people will be playing now.

I'm not sick of playing Rio, Noise, Polygon or Sandbox. Tanki shouldn't pressure us to play maps we don't like, because that makes the game less enjoyable and that may hurt the game itself.

 

In fact the system should offer the most popular map first, and then the second most popular, and so on. Then if people get tired of Rio, stop playing it and let it disappear from the list it will not be the most popular and it will be the last map offered. But you know that will never happen because no one is tired of Rio. :P :)

Pro Pass will solve your problem. Tons of Rio games.

Most often, people don't like the maps because 

 

1. They don't like terrain they aren't used to-best flag routes, sniping spots, etc.

 

2. They simply haven't experienced a full battle in that map. Have you played a full Novel battle?

 

Also, you mentioned you had two warrant officer accounts. Since you do not have that much hours you might still find them the most enjoyable. By Legend/Generalissimo you might feel differently.  :)

I know that. But if that's the way things are gonna be we should at least change the name of the PRO Pass, to PRO Rio & Noise Battles Pass, more honest, you know.

 

I'm kidding, but it feels that way.

Yeah, it's quite hard to find a good Pro battle on unpopular maps. I usually play regular battles if I want to experience something new.

Wait until you get to the highest ranks...then you start to see more xp/bp on different maps. :)
