Testing of Matchmaking System on EU servers

[Junior.Pablo585 5]

Pure nonsense is when you random cast on a folder you do not want to play ... if you do not return to the last version, I will no longer play tankers, I'm confident I would not be the only one

[TaffyTank 1,890]

First impressions..........

• Battles can sometimes be actually be decent, even battles. More often than the old system IMO.

• Does nothing to boot Bots and other troll-type mults that like to ruin others' battles.

• I've had one bizarre matched battle so far, low ranks vs Pros....even had a recruit in my battle. Poor fellow got smashed. Welcome to Tanki noob.:)

• Why does everyone have to move on after a decent round of battle??? continue battle button needed again IMO.

• Having to always go through standard battle menu to get to battle lists is a pain.

• This is NOT a quick battle system...it was quicker getting into battle before.

• The guys in first places seemed to win bigger funds than normal. Totally hate this...just spent a whole battle using Isida to support a guy picking up the flags...he gets huge rewards and I get junk reward, even though I was just as influential as the flag-capper. Bad idea that encouages bad teamwork and the guy that finishes first isn't necessarily the key battle-winning player anyway.e.g. Strong defender is just as important. Get rid of it pls.

• First place missions?....get rid of them if you're keeping this system.

Verry bad update we need to wait 3 minute's to join a battle ? We cant choise what map we wanne join in Non pro ? tanki picks our maps ??

 

U better remove it fast because u will lose manny players if u keep it

[abdulaziz747 0]

it took more then two min to enter the battle 

 

 

and it put me in  a map i dont like with very high ranks  i suggest if u want to keep it  it should be like this

 

 

press play and it opens all the battles with the thing u wanted    DM    TDM   CTF    CP

[Flw 1,625]

Don't like because if I want to play a specific map I can't and because I can't see if a friend is playing or not. Another thing that I don't like is when a player leave it takes ages to join another one. And another thing, the time for battle (10 minutes) is way too small.

This update seems to be effective for the new/newbie players only.

The MatchMaking System: Can It Make A Fair Match?

Positives: 

1. Fair Waiting Time, about 1 to 2 mins

2. Ability to create battles without Pro Pass, which costs a few thousand crystals. 

3. Maps such as Polygon edited, receiving generally good feedback.

4. Also, new map (from HNY 2017) Yorkshire is in the game!

Negatives:

1. Ranks still have too much diversity when MatchMaking, i.e Legends playing Majors, Recruits playing Warrant Officers

2. Battles a little too short. In 10 minutes, very little can happen. Needs to be 15 minutes, same as before.

3. No Mission Tab when in battle. We can't see our progress. Can't see why developers would miss that, they probably have some lame excuse for this but maybe it will come back :)
4. Scoring System is Messed up. Some players get nothing.

5. Map is random. Perhaps it should be edited so it accepts your preferences. I don't want to be sent to a Dusseldorf with Isida!

[Ninja 10,468]

DMs somehow seem absolutely awesome now. Team battles; not so much. Gonna play more though.

[Alo 8]

Hate it... dont have much time to do missions but i have to wait 3 minutes to get in a battle with unbalanced teams... and most of the time it doesnt even put me in a battle and once i get put in a battle its a team full of legends vs brigadiers/leutenant general  

 

 

 

REMOVE THIS UPDATE

This is a freaking DISASTER!

 

Why does Tanki insist on creating STUPID changes that NOBODY wants instead of FIXING the problems (BUGS!) and doing things people LIKE (like adding new maps)?

 

I really don't understand what you are doing, Tanki. Why these changes that ruin the game experience?

 

I would have liked to be able to sort battles in the list by rank as well as format, for example. And a mine-drop in battles without supplies would have been nice. But how is taking choice away from the player an advance in the game, unless it has some financial benefit for somebody...

 

Suggestions for changes: new maps, less bugs, less lag, less DCing, possibility of mines in drug-free battles, better searchable battle list

 

I taking a break from tanki for a while, if these (in my opinion) negative changes are still implemented in a month or so, I won't be back... :-(

fixed

[Hajduk_Split 418]

My first battle in matchmaking system,  impressions ?  After a long wait I finally enter into battle ( I chosen CP mode becuse of my mission catch 7 points ) And what to say on matchmaking ? If you have a ton supplies you will get used to it, If you do not, you will hate it and eventually you leave the game when you stay without supplies.

I really really dislike this new update, no choice of where you want to play and what ranks you play with. Many maps are not where I would choose. Hopelessly outranked to the point of getting killed so quickly to have no chance of of any real game time or any enjoyment whatsoever. Makes missions almost impossible ..... I don't have the time for this. This feels like a Big Brother takes control thing and like a puppet in the masses you go at his whim - tough if it suits you or not. Well it doesn't suit and if this stays I'm gone..... after many years of enjoying this game.... no more thanks!

[DontBeGreedy 26]

can't believe devs are so dumb

 

they say they they introduce matchmaking for the players who do not have much time to search for battles, and want to get in to a battle with a single click, but reality is exactly opposite.

 

earlier, we were taken to a server with almost full non-pro battles, which we could join instantly. moreover, you could choose battle where you were highest rank.

 

now there is almost 3 minutes waiting time, and you end up playing with people 4 or 5 ranks above you. what sort of matchmaking is this?

 

and why has the missions icon been removed? we can't see our missions progress while playing battles?

we only play non-pro for missions, and you do not let us see our progress, where is the logic?

bring back the missions button on top panel of screen.

 

my respect for Cedric has just gone up, he saw the ship sinking, and jumped off it.

you guys are intent on ruining the gaming experience of people who have stayed here for years.

 

only 2 good things about this update:

 

10 minute battles are much better than 15 minutes

free pro passes for everyone is much appreciated

 

you guys overestimate the amount of players who want to play non-pro

 

plus there is too much lag in 10 vs 10

 

make battles 8 vs 8 or 6 vs 6, to reduce lag and reduce waiting time.

 

there aren't always enough people in same rank for matchmaking to be effective

 

 

also, increase the drop frequency of boxes in battles.

 

i multed for 7 minutes in a battle on my main account, waiting to collect 5 speed boxes.

then i left the battles.

 

felt really sorry for it, because plenty of teammates came close to me and shared their overdrives, but i only needed the boxes, and wasn't interested in the battle.

 

remove this nonsense system.

 

we wait so long, and when we finally get in a game, rank brackets are so wide

[Maf 32,300]

I don't like it much at the moment. DMs are fine, but team battles seem unbalanced.

• I don't like the fact that you can wait for 40+ seconds only to be put into a 7-0 CTF game with 2 minutes of play time left.
• The mission button's location is a big problem. It's impossible to check your progress from inside the battle and impossible to collect the reward before the battle ends. This is particularly problematic if you have a premium mission and wish to activate it in the last second in order to get double reward.
• There's no preparation time. Not sure if it simply hasn't been added, but it needs to be there. Also please make sure that changing equipment during the preparation time does not start the 5-minute timer that goes into the battle as well.
• There needs to be a button to change teams. At the moment if you see the enemy team being dominated and wish to help them, there's nothing you can do. Before MM, you could leave the battle and join the enemy team, but now it's impossible.
• Rank range seems abnormally high. I'd rather wait longer for the battle to start instead of instantly ending up in a battle with unbalanced teams. Or at least add a system that puts players into teams based on equipment upgrade level.
• There should be a group chat. A simple way to do it is make it so that putting @ or # in the beginning of a message sends the message to the group.

stupid update !  

 

only ruins the game !

[mixalis98 16]

Can you still make the game even worst with the updates???

[Aunty_Entity 245]

They say life is change... somehow I think the devs have gotten this idea that change for the sake of change is a good thing.  An accumulation of "bad" changes/updates/upgrades doesn't make for a better game bearing in mind its meant to be a game.  You seem to be hell bent on removing any fun aspect from it.

 

I'm usually on all night, my time, and for that matter a lot of the daytime too, but this is exhausting without getting any battles done.

 

Night alll... hope tomorrow brings better things.
