Hello "Game Coders"! Your New update or shall i say downgrade will make me quit tanki if you dont fix it. I spent 1 month on daily mission chains and it will break because of your "update". The game always hits 999 ping and lags so much. I dont want to here about how its my fault. Before your little update it was working just fine, and every other game and website works perfectly fine. I was going to actually buy something but i changed my mind because i thought why would i spend money on something that i might not play again?  And before you start babbolling about how its mu internet, MANY players are complaining of the same thing. I swear to god i might quit Tanki, we better get some reward for all of this inconvenience caused by this "update" that was probably thoguht up of by a person who failed school. I SPENT SO LONG ON DOING MISSION CHAINS WITHOUT BREAKING THEM!!!!!! NOW THEY WILL BREAK BECAUSE I CANT EVEN PLAY THE GAME!!!! Tell your boss to fix this dumb update right  now. I LOVE tanki and i dont want to stop playing it but i will have to if 1. I cant join battles 90% of the time because  every time i click play it brings me back to the battle screen 2. the lag is so bad!!! SO FIX YOUR STUFF NOW!

"Unified Chat"

 

 

 

 

 

Now instead of 24 chat servers we have 13 Channels!

 

What an Improvement!

 

What's best? None of them contain what they should!

but that would mean hiring more staff to monitor the chat topic?

guys I did not say this ::   I seen a legend saying this

The Unified Battle List and the Match Making System are almost equally horrible.  The Unified Battle list is the worst because it hasn't gone away yet.  At least the Match Making System got taken down after screwing everything up for a couple days (during which I quit playing - my first-ever mission chain break).  But it appears that Tanki is committed to utterly ruining the game with the latest INSANE changes to the game.

 

Next worst is the nerfing of repair boxes.  Utterly stupid and hugely shifts the balance of power in turrets to any that fire continuously or rapidly.

 

 

After that, it's the mission/non-pro battles change.  I haven't played a pro battle since that change.  There's really no point.

 

The paint separation thing wasn't that big a deal.  Sure, it used to be better because you could tell what protections were by the paint, and the paint separation scheme is a complete mess - but it doesn't affect play that much.  A better way to do paint separation would be to get rid of all the "named" protections and just let people buy packages of their OWN design.   For example, instead of having to know a protection is named "Blue Whale", I can just select Magnum-Thunder-Isida as a combination.  But that's a minor detail.  If all Tanki changes were this low in irritation factor, the game might not fail.

Aw!  it's not a BUG!   It's a FEATURE!   It's the way Tanki introduces NEW EXCITEMENT!  Will you get 20 kills?  Will they be wiped out?  Will you have wasted your time?  Will this be the MISSION CHAIN BREAK you've been fearing?  If Tanki can justify the Unified Battle List as a "feature", then getting bounced out in the middle of a game, having your kills eliminated - or even your entire account wiped out just makes the game BETTER.  Right?

This is actually a nice update! I have no experienced no lags although my inner anti-tanki wants to say I did. The only thing that could help is the sectioj by rank. Because I can't see which servers have my rank I always have to browse and look for a battle where it is not filled with the colonels. But, with MMS this won't matter. If that actually becomes released.

Two points ....please listen Tanki...please...

 

!. Reduce the Rank Brackets.  

Based on past Tanki history, the unified battle list won't be repealed, so it is here to stay.  It's one biggest problem, through all the ranks is the large rank brackets.  Previously in another idiotic update you increased the rank brackets...now they need desperately to be reduced again.  I have an another account at rank 13 and I had to play against rank 25...That is preposterous!  That is low M1 (maybe even some with M0) vs M3 and M4.  Battles are now crammed full...I guess this was you goal Tanki, so now you could reduce the rank brackets and players might be able to enjoy battles more rather than just being cannon fodder.  It would be less frustrating to play against a more evenly matched field at all times and would solve some of the mission problems that people are having.  In fact, if the rank brackets were reduced to what the were a few months ago, most of the problems players are complaining about on this thread would not be problems any more. Incidentally,  I now spend a lot more time waiting around for a slot in an  appropriate battle to open up than I ever did surfing servers for a battle. Reduce the rank brackets and the game becomes less frustrating...Tanki keeps players.

 

2. Don't inflict MatchMaking on us. 

What could MM possibly bring to the game at this point?  ...Other than giving players even less choice and control over the game.  All the battles are full and Tanki controls the index of maps that we play on.  MM will only force us onto maps we don't choose in battles we don't choose with rank brackets we have no control over.  I just can't see any possible advantage to MM after the unified battle list update....weren't full battles the goal of MM?   OK, goal accomplished...drop the MatchMaking idea and leave players a modicum of choice.  Tanki keeps players.

very bad release. first i try to search for battles for my ranks. then most are always filled up already. even if i find one or two, even after i quickly try to join, its filled up. wasting too much time. Its like i am forced to join battles in maps i don't like and with very higher rank players.

regarding to his post: Two points ....please listen Tanki...please...

 

Very good observation and neatly explained. I felt the same.
After this update, matchmaking feature that they keep talking about .. is kinda mute. Its just an interface and behind the scenes is what we see now, I think.
BTW, how to reply to a specific post. Thanks. I only see, reply to whole topic

Completely agree with you on 1, but sadly it's unlikely to change. Every other game I've seen gets matchmaking improved over time to make it fairer . . . except for Tanki Online. On the subject of number 2, matchmaking will not be forced on you. When that update rolls out, you will have a choice between using matchmaker or making your own PRO battles for free. The only downside is that you will not be able to complete mission in custom battles.

Shorter rank brackets would help a lot. In my opinion 5 ranks long. Right now we have to check map by map for an appropriate battle where we are not the 5th or 6th rank in the battle, then see if there's an opening, or start clicking and clicking until we are allowed to join. 

 

Many battles are more even now. I played early a battle where my team won with 1 flag to 0. Flag missions needs to be removed.

 

Finish 1st Mission could be rarer (1 or 2 in 10 players), and if we decide to change it we should get another difficult mission that is easy to accomplish with more time playing, like 500 EXP (mid ranks) or 50 Kills (mid ranks). There should also be a way to see what the next mission will be if we decide to change it.

 

Apart from the bugs, I think a lot of people are experiencing lag because they have slow Internet and they are playing full battles. My suggestion is that there should be more 8v8 maps like Rio and Polygon. You could even reduce 10v10 maps to 8v8, and 8v8 to 7v7.

 

It is a good update, and there's no need for Matchmaking, nor Overdrives. Thanks.
