Most of the players who are mults use the battle button, druggers and buyers select their own non-pro... Way to go you Forward-Thinkers at Tanki HQ..... <_<

What are you carrying on about? NVM, IDC.

and why is it just 5 per group?? there should be at least 10

it's already bad enough we can never team up 31 vs 1 at lost temple dm anymore... :(

they should at least let supreme commanders have the option to create groups of 10 for clan members.

??? Let's see how it works, Hope its good.  :unsure: 

 

And yes i just tried your new update and it sucks. Its just going to waste my premium time for all the period of testing. Waiting to play a game sux and to get a 2 repair kits for daily mission i had to wait for a decade and play 5 maps and still got just one. And to top it up its super laggy. And friends invite to a map, i accept and still doesn't take me to that map. And most disgusting of all is you cant select a map you like to play and it automatically takes to a losing game etc etc etc. Really? i am tired of this

What are US servers?

EU servers are for you and I mr America your friend from Canada. You can play on the Brazilian servers but unless you have created multiple accounts in an english server you may not understand what you are reading and where to put what when joining.  The only server I haven't personally played on is the Chinese servers they have an extra step and my Cantonese and Mandarin are next to none.  Every thing you will see in the Brazilian server will be in Spanish or Portugese.

Tankers!

With tomorrow’s server restart, we’ll be implementing a test version of the Matchmaking System on all EU servers.

The test is intended to run for 48 hours, till 02:00 UTC on Thursday 10th. However, developers might decide to end the test earlier if it causes any kind of undesirable effect on the game.

The reason the test is being run on the main EU servers instead of just the test server, is that we would like to see how it performs with a real server load and player distribution, rather than in the controlled environment of a test server.

Watch the video below to learn more about the test:

Don’t forget to share your feedback in the forum!

P.S. The test will be carried out exclusively on EU servers, and will not be run on US servers.

I don't really like this since there's longer waiting times

Just tried joining a CTF Battle.
Players in the queue: 300
Average waiting time 53s
Current time: 1m30

 

and at 1m30 I gave up waiting.
Sorry but this is a TOTAL ABORTION.

 

Whoever thought up this mess needs taking out of the Tanki building and machine-gunned.

 


After the Overdrive saga which none of you listened to, this is just ridiculous.

 

DELETE MY ACCOUNT. I'M DONE.

A few weeks ago it was those damnable sounds heard when picking up supplies. Now it's this &%$!#* Matchmaking system. Where is my in-game Mission button???

 

Just got into a mission where everyone else was about seven ranks above mine - I never would have chosen that battle on my own. I'm probably going to have my Mission chain broken because of this stupidity. I think I'm about done here...  :angry:

I enjoy the function to choose  style of battle. The waiting time is not appreciated, as with the usual system I can pick what ever I like without the wait.

Yes please, yet only as additional feature.

Yep I gave in to overdrive because there's nothing out there worth playing.

But waiting so long to get onto a game that you need to book an appointment?

 

Now it's a case of not only do I not want to bother, but I can't even get on to try.  Big difference.

 

No matter.  You wont see me on tanki again. Trust me.

How to even complete missions??  Have to wait to join a battle?

Take a number.  Get on with your life.

Tanki will call you to let you know your game is about to start....

One thing dear developers, there aren't enough players after server reset to substansiate having all 24 servers online and I personally jumped 5 servers to find no games other than pro battles and a mere 2 or 3 players looking for a normal battle like myself.

 

Maybe when all your Russian players come on line you need half the servers say 12 for 37-47k in players but after server reset there is maybe 3k - 10 k players if you are lucky or its a weekend. 

 

I waited a long time for the match making system to be implemented but if I have to wait ten minutes for a game because the player pool is spread out across 24 servers and there aren't more than 3k in players it still needs work. 

 

Question about it too!  yes Matchmaking will make teams fair at beginning but how do you stop a raider team leaving your side with like 5 players.  Will the game end or will the opposing team have the same unfair advantage they had before the match making system.  8 vs 3 sucks.

I don't think this was the right time to test the matchmaking system, since we are still playing on flash technology.

 

Looks like I won't be able to complete my missions for the next couple of days :P

Not a fan of this update. I rarely post on the forum, but first you made the big error of putting all players on EU servers so now we are in games with players from Russia. We can't read cyrillic and I don't know if they can read english so it complicates communications for strategies in games. Now with this, I don't see how we can choose our favorite maps and in addition, when I tried to get into a TDM, I had to wait almost 3 minutes...unacceptable. This is a bad idea.

8 vs 3 sucks.

Waiting for another five to join doesn't?  Before you can even start?

This sucks way more than it ever used to.  At least you had the option to leave and find another battle.

Now you don't even get that option.

Why is average waiting time given? It's useless. The avg time was 1 sec and I had to wait 1.5 mins -.-
