Testing of Matchmaking System on EU servers

[Aunty_Entity 245]

I think they've made it possible for EVERYONE to read and post to the forums, but introducing a 6 month delay to start a battle, that on quick appraisal is not worth doing, and starting again.  I still haven't been able to finish a 150 crystal mission from 3 days ago :/   Any map skills, and planning have just gone straight out the window. :((  I honestly have no idea how to kill these people... no one dies... I can only guess what its like for players with even fewer resources than I. 

 

 

I used to have a theory that everyone that made it to marshall turned into a bonehead.  After I got there and past it, I had to modify that, cause some of the people that got there at the time I did were good competitive players, others already there weren't so bad either, but now I know where all those boneheads went, every last sucker is now a Legend...  These numb nuts have 50000+ more hours than anyone else, doesn't matter what you use, they've got near enough to everything to counter.

 

It takes about 20 cycles through the sequence to find a map and opponents that are acceptable. I now refuse to stop at any battle with a large proportion on legends on it, and in my case any large map, (I'm not geared for it).  I know someone has to be the weakest link, but why is it ALWAYS me?

 

The Matching Process requires far deeper thought than seems to have gone into it at the moment.

 

Rank matching = Broken

Skills Matching = Broken

Equipment Matching = Broken

equipment to map style = Broken

Players to Boneheads = Broken

Time to Select Battle = Broken

 

In the words of our immortal pauline hanson (snigger) "PLEASE EXPLAIN!"

Have to say sorry!

I'm sorry I have ever met you tanki!

But I'm glad my money are in my pocket - not yours.

So... The new system is extremely dull. I will not lose my time to explain why!

See tomorrow. I understand there are new young manager and he wants to show everybody what brilliant ideas he has...

You can ban users, but how the stupid management will handle when users bannnnn the stupid game?

What happens quite often in match making is very annoying. Waiting, then it starts a game, but it doesn;t open the battle. Only the progress bar occurs and that keeps running endlessly (I tried).

This happens in about 10% of the battles I started. Probably more. Certainly more, 2 out or 5 so far.

 

update 12:04 (CET); this is not only annoying, but even just crap. How can you seriously test servers for speed etc (see vid) and have these type of errors still in the system. Useless bench marking. If my programmers would do this type of bench marking, our systems would fail.

from playing today tanki online I can say that it is the noobest game I am ever play in my life ....

I cant complete my daily mission thinking about to play a long it is only a crap...

[NGHTMRE 0]

It is absolutely horrible. I have clicked 5 times on play. 3 out of 5 times my game just bugged out and I had to restart. And the other 2 times I got into unfair battles where the teams were unevenly matched + the battlefunds are smaller because of the 10 minute rule -> No Gold Boxes! At least make the battlefund rise 1.5X so it evens the time out. I don't want to hate on Tanki Online because it has entertained met for over 2 years now (with several accounts) but now they are truly pushing the limits. The kinda limits that players don't want. Either fix the matchmaking or remove it. Overdrive can stay but make it less frequent. And hurry up because the holidays are about to end and I want to catch some gold boxes untill then!

#BRINGBACKOLDTANKI

 

This update needs to be removed. It has been tested now, and it is pretty clear what 95% of tankiplayers think about it. 

 

I said in a post yesterday that it didn't do any difference for me, since i only picked pro battles. I didn't notice at the time that you couldn't switch servers. Why can't you switch servers? There are not enough games on only one server. 

 

#BRINGBACKOLDTANKI before to many players leave.

[pusssycat 5]

SERVER RESTART NOW!!!!!!!!!!!!!

*********STOP MATCH MAKING**********

[Hatty1994 819]

Game completely broken, some players showing in inactive mode whereas they are active & just now capped our flag  :angry: 

 

[smokeyh2 1,512]

i have just reached a point in this game where i just don't care what tanki developers do anymore

for one thing developers implement updates in the game wether we like it or not

so whats the point in having player discussions about updates when they have already made their minds up too implement udates anyway ?

they don't listen too a thing we say 

so what's the point ?

[Genuine 46]

this update makes the clan system obsolete, useless. 

[Tepu66 11]

Another Pathetic update.

Now we have to wait on a bus stop in a 3rd world country to board a bus, which was not of our choice.

We can not enter on map of our choice.

we can not see the progress of our missions during the battle.

We can not claim award of missions on time of our choice like missions of premium.

I can not play on your choice of map.

Stupid update about repair kit. Now it can not repair during the fight

TO don't want us to play any more.

The most favorite and played map Polygon has been changed. Purpose is very much obvious that  tankers may not earn crystals without paying $ to Tankionline. Tankionline team has a poor Financial  management experience and competence. If TO will lost its viewers, than how they can earn $. Definitely, there will be  a constant decline in future.

Bye Bye Tankionline

It's better

[Scarters 0]

I hate the new system, cueing up after every battle ?

At least we should be able te stay in the battle

I want to pick my own battles and levels

[Aunty_Entity 245]

 

The scarey part about this, aside from the bad spelling, is my waiting time and the average.  I'm waited far longer than the average, which is just that, people must have been waiting longer than I have to account for the short timers that just joined.  That is in itself a rather appalling statistic.

What the hell @Cedric Debono doing at this moment ?? I know, he is leaving, but he need to spend or say something in this topic after so many complaints. 

 

Is he spending last days of Tanki with TO ladies in HQ ?? Wake up, noob. Thank GOD, you are leaving ... Get out  :angry:

that's not true, but influence on missions is (very) limited. I managed to finish 1 mission.

However, am I wrong as I think that slowing down mission fulfillment is a goal of match making system?

He's a community manager, not game designer...targeting a wrong person.

It might slow down mission completion, but it sure as hell doesn't slow down supply burning...

It was one of the stated aims, somewhere I read.  It doesn't make anything much better though, in terms of getting participation by everyone in battles.  Missions for me are an end to themselves, and the pay offs are nice, but I don't play in any battle normally where I could finish them, so its always going to be, get them out the way, and get back to regular programming.

 

Lots of missions are simply impractical now to.  I think I'm safe in saying, most of us have to stack the deck somehow in order to get the first places, catch gold boxes out the way and cap 10 flags.  Sure there's some saying but I got my first and finished 3 missions in 30 mins. But I say they have to be either really skilled, or really lucky or a mix of both and most of us aren't either of these things. For every 1st there has to be a battle full of losers...
