[r_Nives5 15,148]

 

Tankers!

 

Tomorrow, after server maintenance at 02:00 UTC October 20th, you will be able to check out the new Lobby Screen and other changes announced earlier this week.

 

Also with the restart Rank limits for standard (non-PRO) and PRO battles will be decreased. 

 

Read the full patch notes here and see you tomorrow in the Lobby!

When are you gonna remove PRO pass completely?

[Chill.Out 286]

Nice :d

Rank limit for standard non-PRO battlrs decreased. Does it affect ranks like legends? Like we get a wider range of ranks?

[iMoneyMaker 4,500]

New Look.

 

[Bydo 20,119]

will wait and give further opinion on this update.

 

 the rank levels if it is gets  issued , if lowering ranks to battle with higher ranks well what happened to balance battles , this looks like it got tossed out.

limited ranks in higher ranks this would be good , then higher ranks wont be with m2 or m3 not upgraded tanks. there like a target gallery if we have them.

Matchmaking for the first 5 ranks? Not a good sign.

 

New Look.

 

 

 

I hope you are wrong. I need the Missions button on top to check if I need another flag or box to complete a Mission.

Use spoilers when quoting images.

[SamirAWSM 203]

You should have even reduced the rank limits for pro battles too :(

Nice!

This looks better: (my idea for the interface)

 

 

 

 

 

 

One extra click to the Battle list, but less clicks for Garage and Missions.

I really like that, having everything on one screen would be cool. Not too sure about the garage being there tho.

[BlackWasp777 4,498]

That's good new about the rank limits!

 

And no, this is not matchmaking. This is simply another way to enter battles.

Matchmaking will take more care of balanced teams (in terms of ranks, ...) and have a synchronised battle start after the battle is filled up.

 

 

ps: will the other thread be closed soon, so that we do not have two parallel discussions?

[Hall_of_Famer 2,124]

The only Supply kit will also be removed from garage?

Mission tab is also on top menu bar

the mission icon on top was visible even during battles, so we can check our progress.

 

Lower rank limits are great though.

 

I will see if I can get the finish first missions done now, but most probably i will leave them.

its quite frustrating when somebody from your team overtakes you in the last minute, or you get server connection closed, or other stuff like turret stops doing damage in the middle of the battle.

 

plus finishing first mission requires quite selfish behaviour, which is bad for the team.

 

if i am finishing first, i will never drop flag for the 2nd and 3rd highest scorers if im low on health, nor share my overdrive them, which is very bad gameplay (because these are the guys who deserve the overdrive, and will make it count), but i need to make sure they don't overtake my score.

 

i wish tanki would remove the finish first and capture flags missions..

As convenient as it might seem, this idea is problematic for the following reasons:

1. Having to load everything every time instead of just the thing you need will increase lag, and will increase (a lot) the time it takes for the lobby to load, look how long it takes to load the garage alone. With most players going straight into battle without opening the garage it is clearly an unnecessary thing to load the garage.

2. The garage itself takes an entire screen, so before squeezing it into a small window in the corner of the lobby you need to completely redesign it, and with such small space it will be very inconvenient to find some stuff in your garage, especially in long lists like paints and protection modules.

Most people (nowadays) have internet connection which is 1Mbps+.

Plus some data can be saved locally.

New rank limits should be awesome for low rankers like me.This update won't create any more lags I hope.

[RIDDLER_8 5,552]

Please answer my following questions:

 

1. Is this new lobby the matchmaking system?

 

2. Can Legend players play with Major rank tankers?
