Testing of Matchmaking System on EU servers

[r_Evil_Twins2 0]

I have never complained about updates before even though most of them have made the game less fun to play.  This Matchmaking is by far worse than anything so far.  I have read many justified complaints and agree with 99% of them. I haven't read a post that addresses an issue I had today with my missions.

 

Can't collect supply boxes for missions.  Can't get 1st place in a battle. 

 

I spent almost two hours trying to collect five stupid double damage boxes.  TWO HOURS!

 

I got killed dozens of times and collected almost no crystals since my focus was boxes instead of killing enemies or helping my team.  With so many players on each side, picking up boxes is luck.  On Skylark, players were jumping for Damage boxes like they were Gold boxes. 

 

If Tanki insists on this ridiculous Matchmaking system they need to revamp the entire scoring system and daily missions.  Probably the best would be to do away with Daily Missions altogether and replace them with some sort of rewards for time spent in-game.

 

Please do not make this ridiculous and unworkable Matchmaking a permanent part of the game.

This is not good update for Tanki Online. I think Tanki should make another matchmaking system

[xXx_PRO_MAN_xXx4 4]

Guys, this feature is still in development, and we are currently testing it. Before you guys go against something, test everything. Tell ups and downs. Only then we can make it better.

Agree with this. 

 

Adding on, the matchmaking system is terrible. When you try to play, you get matched with Legends when you are Major General. 

 

Please remove this.

Alright, I've played a couple of games with the match making system and these are my initial impressions (which are liable and likely to change in the future without previous notice):

 

Clicking to go to a battle and nothing happening but having a pop-up saying, "Wait" was a bit of a bummer. Then again, it's not much worse than screening through several servers to find a decent battle. Both times the system took less than a minute to send me to a battle, so I guess it's faster overall.

 

Both games that I played were somewhat enjoyable, especially the second one. The teams were more or less balanced (on my first game, all ranks above Warrant Officer 1 were in the same team, though), the battles frantic, and there wasn't a clear winner until the end. I don't know if it was sheer chance, but people didn't seem to use too many supplies either.

 

I absolutely love the new Polygon map. I think it's awesome. I'd really encourage the developers to make it the new Polygon for custom battles as well. Now it's a map where you can have some sort of strategy, where the bases are protectable, and you don't have enemies spawning all around you. I has an interesting gameplay, as opposed to the old Polygon, which is basically used because it gives quick experience and crystals.

 

I've got mixed feelings about the new fund distribution system. Since it favours those on top of the score board, it is possible to get a decent reward even in the losing team. That is good, and I guess it's meant to encourage people to fight hard even if their team is losing. On the other hand, though, I fear that once players have figured it out, it will encourage sabotaging, especially on the winning team. Also, it may encourage players on the bottom half of both teams to just leave the game, because the reward is not worth it. But my greatest problem with it is that joining a battle half way through it is not desirable. I happened to see that a couple of people left the battle and were quickly replaced by new players. Well, if the system sends me to a battle when there's only four minuts left, I'm quickly out of there. If the team is half decent, it's highly unlikely that I'll make it to the top half, and fighting hard to end up in the bottom half because the others have had more time to build their score up is simply not worth it.

 

Overall, it's something that I can live with. I feared that I would only play custom battles with this system, but, although I wish that it were possible to get into battles without overdrive, I guess I'll play both.

Waiting too long before entering a battle !!

Deadly wasting time.

Not in favor of this update.

[Viking4s 10,791]

Lost six days of bonus and I'm still waiting to get a DM to do some missions :angry: ........Tanki you have done it again what is the point of continuing What the fuss

.

To get DM battle for mission you need to select the DM button, below the first one.

[ButeoRegalis 1]

The battle list is great, but takes ages to get into a battle. why can't you see your missions when in the battle? Definitely need to change this back!

love how you don't need pro pass to play in pro battles.

I prefer the old version better.

How i can do Misson in DM? 

[Hate 5,582]

 

You have to choose the DM category in order to be sent into a DM battle. First click on the battle list and you will be able to see the full battle list available in that server just like old days. 

[Junior.Pablo585 5]

I'm very disappointed with this, return the previous state  :(  :angry:  :mellow:  :huh:  -_-  :unsure:  :wacko:  :blink:

FEEDBACK:

 

Positive:

(1) waiting time acceptable, although in some cases the cue is enormous and delays the game start

(2) one can not choose mult battles etc. anymore

 

Negative:

(1) I like to choose my maps to play on AND do my missions. That is not possible anymore with automatoc game mode: very negative

(2) I like to play games with friends that I llok up for and help in games when they need that. That is not possible anymore if one also wants to complete missions: very negative (affects the mode of playing with friends together)

 

NEED:

(1) bring back missions in PRO battles

(2) bring back regular crystal drop as it once used to be

[Viking4s 10,791]

I like new forest, but I do not like new solimkans (whatever how you spell it). It is too small! NSW silince is better, it makes the magnum less potent, however the blue base is too small/cramped.

I hope that the 10 minutes battles is just for the periode testing.

Hello Tanki,

 

Could you please give us back the way you had your lobby setup, previous to this update.

 

I like being able to see all the different maps listed together that are available to play, so I can compare and  choose what I am  most interested in playing.

 

And I like seeing how many people are playing in a map currently, and how much time is left to play on the map.

 

Also: I have never had to wait to play a game, the way you have to wait with your matchmaking format.

 

Maybe you can offer your matchmaking format as an alternate choice of game play, for those that want that.

 

Thanks very much and hopefully you can do this! :)

I appreciate (and agree with) this comment so much, I couldn't help reposting (by quoting) it! Great job, vinculum4!

The before one was better than it

I admit that i pay nothing to play this game - just slowly and enjoyably progressing through the ranks - updating my tanks etc.. Having said that i would be mad as hell if i had paid anything to eventually end up with what is essentially unplayable certainly not enjoyable matchmaking system. i know i am english and we love waiting in a queue but we always know why we are in the queue and what we will get when we are allowed in - here its a lottery - its like driving into a bad area of town. or dropped in a map i never play - cos i dont like it. tried a few and just got killed time after time - no chance just swamped with far superior tanks. Chance of me completeing missions- ZERO - Shame as this was the only game that i play - No more if not put back to the way it was. Hell i might even pay a monthly fee if i had to but in this state you would have to pay me. 

[Cosmic 3]

So recently I was testing out the new matchmaking system. My first views, were not that great. 

First of all after about 5 seconds of the game, the game randomly restarts (getting rid of any supplies tankers have used) 

 

As you can see by the screenshot attached,

There was a sergeant-major and a lieutenant General in the same GAME!

Thats like, someone playing with M0+M1 against M2+M3. 

Plus I saw the lieutenant General and he was using M2 hornet and M3 isida.

But the sergeant-major was using ricochet M0 + Viking M1.

Imagine them having a fight! sergeant-major would be obliterated!

 

Thanks for reading :D

Devs are stupid and removed rank brackets.

[Grimoire 5]

worst update ever, please change it back, i try to do missions and have to wait ages (completely stupid),and then since i dont have good turrets and hulls and mainly supplies i dont stand a chance to do my missions, this is now just forcing me to buy on this game. Like i cant go to battles and do any thing cuz they have m4s and campers, omg this is the owrst update ever, also u cant even see the progress u have made in ur missions, how stupid is this update.
