Okay so @Maf I couldn't reply you because of some reasons to be honest I dont have my pc nowadays its broken so im on phone.

first of all you are right at almost all but I dont agree with you about 1-2 topics.

So basically I thought that it is seasonal fall down but since I learnt how to see online players'number , I have never seen something like that - Maybe I remember wrong.

 

Second thing is - We discussed this players' number fell down and i think some people left from this game cuz of their acc blocking cuz of hacking.

Yes of course tanki needs to block their acc for forever but this means tanki can't

stop hackers.They say that it is not possible but i cant understand how there is little hacking odds in big games like CS:GO. No one has enough courage to hack in csgo as i heard , but still idk we need to ask this to Cs:GO players cuz i dont play cs go , and I think tanki needs more moderators - eapecially battle mods , not forum mods i really like forum mods they are working hard and they deserve paying in my opinion , and in almost every battle , mods need to join and see for hackers , i think its possible and i might post this in ideas and suggestion sections , if u agree. But as I said I am not a dev or admin so i dont know how much its possible.

 

I think i forgot something but it's not problem :)

​it has been said many times that "Battle Mod admins are looking for new battle mods, but can't just pick people, even if they fill the requirements, because a lot of players have been here for a very long time and their Karma is huge, would you trust these players with more powers" And I myself, think the reports players do in battle "/vote offender" is just them getting upset due to the fact they keep dying or have a bad lag, today I got accused of "Hacking" I mean..  <_< and Battle mods have been doing an amazing job for the past few months, for proof take a look on the RU forum: http://ru.tankiforum.com/topic/126829/​there is just a huge amount of players that have been punished by Battle Mods, and players think BM's aren't doing their job  -_- But like my first opinion above, how could you trust players with Battle Mod powers if their Karma is extremely bad.. it's been said like so many times;p make's me tired of discussing the same topic over every month or something, but it get's amusing too  :lol:. Tanki is indeed in need of more Battle moderator's, but I'm sure it's very hard to find trustworthy players.

Supplies are not core part of this game?

 

Do you play this game?

 

Which "TO" are you talking about?

Everyone uses them, I get it. But what I mean is that without supplies Tanki would still be Tanki. Tanki X without modules would just be a worse TO clone with better graphics.

Correct, but TO would be slower paced without Nitro.  :ph34r:

Waait what was exactly the mission update?

 

it was the one where they allowed missions to be completed only in non-pro battles.

before that missions could be done in pro battles.

good times .....

[DieselPlatinum 5,121]

I think it's more like the logical/reasonable trait of players is dying.

[Winner_Of_Turkey 2,647]

90% of the games you queued in CS, full with hackers. Deathmatch, competitive. It's impossible to play.

[Coat 2,280]

Yeah man, it's impossible to play any part of Counter Strike online.... I get killed as soon as the game starts.

Yeah i dont play CS GO so I dont know well , I heard this from my friend.

Patch Update #451 is the worst update I have ever seen in Tanki Online.

i.e Removal of missions from pro battles and even though many tankers didn't like it still, tanki have done it & the result is ppl left.

True, csgo MM is awful. I doubt it will be bad with Tanki because I haven't seen any hackers in a long time now.

This is by far the worst thing Tanki has done so far.  I believe this will soon become the 2nd worst thing Tanki has ever done.  MatchMaking will supercede it and will ruin what ever is left of Tanki.  The game will become monotonous and completely repetitive doing the same battle on homogenized maps.  Even the different modes will blend together as all battles will be a full ten minutes every time and always ten players on each team with the losing teeam being refilled from poor sods waiting in queue.  Get ready for another big drop in players by August 2018 a month or so after the novelty of MM and this new mode wear off.  I'm guessing 15000 to 18000 players at peak times.

 

At times I wonder if Tanki is trying to reduce player numbers to be able to keep the game going with less server cost...seriously, this is the only reason I can make any sense out of what they do constantly.  They can't look at numbers and feedback from the forum and think they are improving the game.

Exactly ! They never ask opinion of players before/after an update. They just move on with crap useless updates & ==> players leave. 

Soon they will know it when everyone leaves when all other games are getting new , cool updates we can't expect anything from tanki in that way.

Updates like in-game voice,mu on rankup , spectator mode for everyone will never come but trash updates like moving missions from pro battles to non-pro , match-making, repair kit (no more useful), rename pass update keep coming but no good one's.

Huh ! idk how they make such moves & want to destroy their own game...

They love.. they love to destroy game :)

So making a 1 flag battle and getting a bunch of crystals with 0 effort is good?

[Hancho 3,902]

So is Tanki dyin or na? 

[Pyre 3,485]

So is Tanki dyin or na? 

Depends on your definition. Once any game reaches its peak, it will technically be "dying". TO is not dying much faster than other games of its type. Its on the downhill road, but not on its deathbed just yet.

[ThirdOnion 4,898]

So is Tanki dyin or na? 

No. All games reach a peak eventually and then decline, it's natural. That decline can take years and years before you can actually call a game truly dead, and some games make a comeback during that time. Take Fortnite or PUBG for example. These games blew up recently, but eventually they will lose their massive popularity, regardless of what the developers of those games do. Similar thing goes for Tanki. It's still far from dead though.

they've said this multiple times before in the vlog - they do not consider forum replies to be representative of the feelings of all players in tanki.

no wonder they keep losing players.

yes, thats quite obvious.

 

if you don't like it, you had non-pro battles to do your missions.

let us do missions how we like them, and you do yours how you like them.

 

those of us who like to do it in pro-battles were doing missions there, because it saves time.

a lot of times i din't have much time to play tanki in weekdays, so doing missions on pro helped me keep up my mission chain.

 

after the mission update came, i couldn't maintain my chain, so i quit playing until this new unbreakable chain update came.

 

i agree with everyone in this thread who says patch update 451 was the worst tanki has seen - moving missions to non-pro battles.

that alone cost tanki 30k-40k players in the 2 months following it.

 

some of them took time to quit, because they were hoping tanki would reverse it, but when it became clear that the update was here to stay, people did leave.

 

some irreparable damage has been done by the devs thoughtless updates.

 

they could have reduced mission rewards by 20% if they were completed in pro battles, but they went straight to 100%, and that has been the downfall.

[lukey0 27,543]

I love the way people say MM is a reason Tanki is dying but it hasn't even been released yet. (facepalm)

Thats basically why they released the new unbreakable chain. Thats good right? Or will you just ignore it and still say the Deves want to kill their game?

And the proof is? There wasn't 70 - 80k players playing daily a year ago. Those were lucky to be the amount of daily players during Tanki's peak time in 2014-2015. 

[ThirdOnion 4,898]

First we have players leaving after 2015.

Then we had players leaving after paint disintegration.

Then after removal of battle creation.

Then after patch 451.

 

Strange how there are still players left.

And don't forget each event made the peak number of players decrease by 30k+. So that means Tanki must have had over 160k players online at once, at some stage.  :rolleyes:

[Bamba 188]

If to be honest,if we talking about old players,i think that most of them will not back here again.

the main reasons (by my eyes) are: 1)maybe your friends or your family idk

gives you the feeling that tanki its not for you/not for your age/your too old to play it/we prefer

to play other games.

2)most of the players who leaved (by my eyes) just too old to play it,i mean they have a life out there they

needs to be in,like college,get married,even be with ther kids/family.

if we talking about the legends,i think we can agree that when you got everything or close to that at every game,you get bored.

without an exiting thing that will keep them here,i dont think they will back,maybe only to chek what changed. (by the way thats another

reason why the super tank mode,and the last updates/future updates are a best idea)

So,to sum up:

by my eyes the reasons are: lets call it life. another one is boredom? and the last  is our community. how they get the fact you play tanki.

 

(By The Way.your community can be also the reason you play here,becuase they like it. but its not our conversation :D

also,dont kill tanki so fast ;) )

 

Feel free to type your responds,

so you honestly think nobody left :huh: ?

people leaving has no correlation with the bad updates?

even when people are quite vocal about their displeasure?

 

 

And don't forget each event made the peak number of players decrease by 30k+. So that means Tanki must have had over 160k players online at once, at some stage.  :rolleyes:

nobody said that each event decreased player numbers by 30k+.

I Only spoke of the mission update.

 

plus even if 30k players left after each update, new ones come, but don't stick around much

hence the downward trend in player numbers.

 

though i never talked about 2015, paint disintegration, removal of battle creation, even if players say 30k+ left after each of these, it does not imply that tanki had over 160k+ players at one time.

net outflow = 30k per per year

net inflow = 20k per year

=> large drop in player numbers

 

understand the logic? how a 30k+ player drop with each update (which no single person ever claimed, but you just happened to imagine) is nevertheless consistent with less than 100k players at all times?

or were you playing tanki when the teacher was teaching?

or maybe you're still in school and a course on logic has never been offered?

 

net inflow occurs despite the bad updates, because people still see this game listed on miniclip, and happen to click on it.

they do not know the former glory of this game.

 

and devs know it.

they're not fools to give triple rewards for mission chains for so long, trying to hold on to players, so that the existing players don't leave

 

also, i don't see anybody in this thread saying that MM is the reason tanki is dying.

somehow your twisted logic makes you think that.

 

people are merely speculating that player numbers will drop further.

 

there is a difference in the 2 statements.

 

get some education if you don't understand the meaning of what people say

[Assad 20]

Druggers killed Tanki.
