Testing of Matchmaking System on EU servers

[ImAtWork 141]

You sound like Baghdad Bob.

lol at the ref

most here weren't born then :P including the reporter I bet

[Yisroel.Rabin 16,224]

How much are they paying you to tell these lies?  

 

Tell me how I can work around this piece-of-crap update?  Tell me how I can go on as if it does not even exist!  If you can do that, then I'll apologize and accept the guidance.  If you can't then you are just lying.

 

I waited three minutes to get into a battle, didn't even know what freaking map it was, my gun didn't work, I shot 4 enemies and they showed ZERO damage.  My mission continuity has been in place since the 4-week model went into effect - but now I cannot even play the goddamn game.  Sorry but you're a liar and Tanki is going to hell.

They, whoever that is, is paying me absolutely zero, in fact, I probably shouldn't even be responding to you guys, but I am. They way to work yourself around the system is click "Battle list." Using your super natural intellectual powers, you should be able to scroll down and locate it.

 

Waiting long for a battle is a problem which should be dealt with once the update is released. THIS IS A TESTING PHASE. Bugs around bound to occur.

 

it's massive.  choosing games is part of the strategy.  combos are chosen based on map, mode, number of players, etc.  that's all out the window.  why even have different maps now? just put us all in a void box and we'll hold down the space bar.  And missions?  They're done.  Just make the game pay-only already.

Why can't you change in battle?

You all need to take a closer or deeper look into this update before posting negative reviews or complaining. Think about group update thingy, only ur friends (those who u want) can join not random. Also at this moment there are less players online so there are less normal battles (non-pro battles) are there, so average waiting time is 2-3 mins just wait till servers are filled up and u will/should enter the battle within 10-20 seconds. Keep calm and also its in testing phase so take it easy. Post update problems and suggestions to make it better instead of complaining without exploring the new update or just by looks of it.

NO!  You are wrong...dead wrong.  This is so bad it is easy to see it will not work...at least for me and the way I play.  And I would guess there are thousands that play like me.  This update is lunacy, sheer and utter lunacy!

 

You talk about "at this moment" there are few players online...but this is when I play!  Now, I'm online now and it took almost half an hour to play for 7 minutes in a battle that I was outgunned and joined so late that I made almost no crystals.  You are dead wrong this up[date is UNWORKABLE and needs to be SCRAPED asap...no improvement, no tweaks, no slight adjustments...GONE...DONE...HISTORY

....NEVER implemented.

There are things I love in the new update and something I really hate ...very much ....for my first half hour

 

The good ....

• The new map are really amazing 

The bad ...

• matchmaking system put me in the map with player much higher or much lower that my current level
• the new matchmaking system no longer allow me to continue to play on the same map with same group of people ...and make friends
• i am no longer able to choose map that I am prefer to especially when i want to practice particular map or try out some tactics to sharpen my skill
• I constantly measure my mission performance by checking my status but I am no longer able to do so.  Understood the intention behind might be try to prevent user quite the game right after the mission accomplish but I am sure there is other better way
• it is very hard for me to invite friends into the battle....

The ugly .....very ugly

• matching performance (speed) is HORRIBLE.  I little to wait for average over 3 minutes for every battle.  Random map is a bit quicker but it's still way slower than how it was working in the past
• I was kind of expecting the system would ensure there are equal number player on both side but apparently it was not the case.  I had one game start with 3 player short right at the beginning ....................................

B/c then my team loses XP while I switch.  It's more than just that.  Choosing battles was a big feature.

These are the complaints the developers don't want to see, as it doesn't help them. If you want a response in the form of change from the devs, tell them why it's bad, not that it's just bad.

Oh yes. How wonderful. Daily Missions can't be completed in these battles. Pffft.

[R3L3NTL3SS 47]

Just tried out the new matchmaker...... HATE IT! Please keep it as a 48 hr thing. Prefer the old system of checking out battle for myself and choosing where i want to play not where a computer program tells me where i will play. Choosing the Battle list and not being able to complete daily missions is also not a good idea. Please let the players have a vote on this before you even think about introducing it.

OH and whilst you're at it please let us have a vote on Overdrive and whether to keep it or not. That was also forced on us without any choice.

[Yisroel.Rabin 16,224]

You can still choose a battle...

The devs are what needs to be updated

[ImAtWork 141]

only pro battles, useless for missions since that other terrible update allowed missions only in non-pro battles

[wolverine848 13,097]

well, ~ 8 battles and I'm pretty much the lowest Rank in all of them.

 

Thanks for making my missions even more difficult.  Was hard enough needing to complete them in normal.

 

Now it's against all Legends.

[gurbinder 2]

i cant find a single battle to finish my mission

[Aunty_Entity 245]

You can still choose a battle...

 

But as it says you can't do a mission!

 

(sigh) Maybe there's a battle running out there somewhere....2mins + waiting, swaps to loading... timeout :(  Hung client, start again.

If you have enough time to complain like this, you have plenty of time to stare at a screen for 20 seconds.

It's really hard to see why you guys are complaining. This is literally an optional thing. It's like you're complaining that you don't like how the Nano paint looks. If you don't like it, do use it. Besides that, it's a great system. If you can't find a battle, and want something new, go for a surprise and use the Matchmaking system. There is no negative effect on you if you use it? You can't wait 1 minute to play in a good battle? Well, I'm sorry then, good battles aren't for you I guess.

 

It's basically a more detailed version of the 'Battle' button.

You ask for feedback and i gave it to you. Judging from the comments here this update sucks major time. Yes I do not have time to stare at the screen daily for 2 minutes to get in to a battle. I not sure where you got the 20 seconds, but that is a pipe dream.  I cannot chose the map, I do not know ahead of the time the ranks I will be playing against and I cannot choose my turret before I enter the battle because I choose my turret and tank based on the map I will be playing. So how is that a "good battle". You really must have a very small mind if you think this is a good upgrade to the game.

[rockstar3984 50]

I love this update its perfect tanki needs this update it really just brought this dying game back from the dead

LOL really? It was dead and is killed again now 

[DesmondDoss 14]

The new match making system has arrived. The Tanki developers always surprise us with their update. This "match making" test run interface looks cool but when you use it, it really is unfair. I have given some reasons below why match making will be a night mare.

1. The waiting period to join a match is uncool. 400 people in queue and my estimated waiting time gets changed frequently. On give away, it will be everyone's worst nightmare.

 

2. When a player want to quit from the match because his team is taking a blow, he quits, now this match making system put us on the losing side. In CTF, blue team captures 8 flags, the red team players start quitting, now your match making will send us to that losing side. I always land up on the losing side, only two or three times I landed when the game was about to start.

 

3. Playing with higher ranks make us sitting ducks. Even though the match making system makes sure that both team are equally balanced in strength, but I will be a M2 and on the opposite team, there will be a legend with M3+micro upgrades and I will definitely lose to him. This is really unfair.

4. You are serving low rank players to high rank players so they can feast on us.

5. Completing missions will take days or weeks, if I get into a match after the waiting period.

I kindly request you to stop proceeding with this match making system. However, please provide us with the battle list when we click on CTF, TDM, DM, CP, provide us with a battle list showing the rank range for that arena.

Why can't you change in battle?

How can you change in battle when you get in on the last 7 minutes of battle?  It takes at least a minute to assess the battle situation and a full minute to get into garage...that leaves only a 5 to five and a half minute of play...the crystal yeild is so small it is pointless

 

Yisroel, try playing, try playing and tell me this is a good update....no way.

[Yisroel.Rabin 16,224]

Oh yes. How wonderful. Daily Missions can't be completed in these battles. Pffft.

So use the MM system for 3 battles of your day. It isn't bad at all. I've tried it out already, quite a few times. I completed 2 missions already. I might also mention that I'm not a drugger.

 

 

 

only pro battles, useless for missions since that other terrible update allowed missions only in non-pro battles

Read above.

[haplessly 0]

Yes, I understand why this is being done.  Personally, I carefully select the map based on the tank/turret that I am currently playing with.  I also choose battles where I am one of the higher ranks, this way I can get the most out of the equipment options that I have.  I suspect that you need to work on making the system a little more palatable for players to use.  Perhaps give a experience multiplier for letting the system select both the map and rank range.

 

You might also consider at least allowing players to select the map that they are playing on.

... and it just joined me in a game that has only 19 seconds left ... waste of time

[rockstar3984 50]

I've said tons of time to update your servers before doing an update coz these nub servers can handle these updates properly,hence new lags -.-

It doesn't matter how many times we say, or no one cares what we want here. we use what THEY give. That's it. RIP tanki

[gfitz 19]

I just tried the new automatic match menu twice using one of my lower level accounts - a first lieutenant.

 

The first time, I  selected "Deathmatch" with no others in my group. After waiting a minute, I  was in a CTF on Kunger NOT a DM! There was no indication of the name of the map I was assigned to. With out a brief "title" giving the name of the map as we are entering battle, how will less experienced players learn the names of the maps?

 

The second time, I  also selected "Deathmatch" with no others in my group. After waiting a minute and a half, I  was finally in a DM. There were times the lag was so bad, it seemed like I was vibrating in a car riding on railroad ties. There were full colonels in the battle with my first lieutenant. Their experience level is more than 200,000 experience points higher than mine with much more powerful weapons. This is not a good way for players to enjoy battles.

Exactly. Nobody wanted supply nerf but "OH WE DON'T CARE. ALL THAT MEANS IS MORE MONEY"
