Unlike other players I'm not suggesting to remove it completely I'm adding some ideas to improve it

 

#1. Matchmaking - Group chat

 

We need to chat while in group the battle takes so long and therefore the exit tab shouldn't be shown that would be a small window and we can click out of it to chat or anything like changing etc...

 

agree

One Word. "Eww." 

#WorstUpdateEver :angry:

I'm sorry, Nives. :blink:  :wacko:  :unsure:

But, maybe Cedric was better?  :huh:

Le Tanki devs

         YES +++ SO TRUE +++ ahahha :)

Collect box missions have to go if Matchmaking stays.

I can not see how Matchmaking is something good. Constant waiting time, never get to play a 15min game only partial games and you lose even more time from it when you have to change your tank, and before you know it the game is over and you have to start all over again. Would be great if you at least could stay in the game when entering continue. In short it sucks and I wonder what people testing it find so great that TankIOnline felt propelled to implement the change.

Match Making is an ok update, but I have something to improve it...

Maybe make the groups for battles up to 6, instead of 4, because 4 isn't that much and you may want to invite 1 or 2 more friends.

Make different size ranged maps. Like you know how to click "Play" and it shows the waiting time? Well, it should be when you click play 3 buttons should appear, "Small", "Medium" and "Large" and you click one of those buttons for what sized map you want to join. That should also lower the joining speeds so you can join battles faster.

This is so stupid. I have a mission, score 3 goals. And this stupid match failing system keeps sending me in stupid highways map, with stupid campers, impossible to capture.

 

Why you don't keep standard, non pro-battles, in the battle list? Those battles would only be accessible through the battle list.

 

And then you make your own BS match making system in the lobby with the "Play!" button.

 

I want to choose the map I play in. What a useless update.

And I'm so tired to wait 2 to 3 minutes before I can join a new map. This is not dynamic at all. It's boring.

thanks for messing up the game, waiting 2 to 5 minutes for each new game to start, if it doesn't crash first. Spend more time waiting then playing. goodbye.

 

 

was this designed to make me wait 2 to 5 minutes for a games I don't want to play. What is wrong with you. You have made this game unplayable. Go get your Darwin award!

 

 

I will not wait 2- 5 minutes between every game, if it doesn't crash, requiring 5 -10 minutes. Why have you destroyed the game. I spent more time waiting to play then playing. Goodbye.

yes i agree with u it should be implemented :blink:  

[Psychotic 166]

If you do not agree with matchmaking instead of posting here use: http://en.tankiforum.com/index.php?showtopic=372906 instead so that tanki admins can atleast have a vague figure of how many people wish to remove this update.

When you are promised better battle funds but can't find any good battles because of "matchmaking:"

 

 

 

 

Seriously, I've seen some pretty awful updates in my time here, but this is a whole new level of awful. Can someone please explain the rationale behind this to me?

I keep pinching myself to see if this is just a bad dream, and checking my calendar to see if this is April Fool's Day, but alas, it's for real. The good news is, I have time to post on the forum, since I'm waiting forever to be matched into a game. I get it---it's the site owner's plan to increase forum traffic---make people wait forever to play!

this matchmaking sucks, the game was already good.

[ByeByeBye 1,747]

OK, Tanki needs MM for mobile...fine if that is the rationalization.  Keep this awful MM to attract the mobile market.  But here is a 

VERY EASY SOLUTION to most to the woes voiced in this thread so far.

 

Let us go back to being able to complete missions in Pro-Battles.

 

Perfect, easy fix...mobile gets the MM feature, Tanki sells lots of Pro-Passes, and players can choose to use the MM mechanic or create their own battles on maps of their choosing.

 

Oh wait, NOBODY would EVER use MM if they could make their own battles....that speaks VOLUMES on how good and effective MatchMaking actually is.  The ONLY way people will use MM is if they are coerced into using MM.

 

Any thoughts on this?  Feasible?  It really would work and make Tanki very enjoyable again instead of this trash we have now.

Why is everyone so upset and negative? I find the new match making system FANTASTIC! Missions? Eazy-peasy my friends! Kill 100 tanks? Just shy of 2 rounds and mission complete! Earn 500 crystals? Shoooot, no problem, one round get'r done! AWESOME!

 

Now as for the poor warrant officers I have destroyed along the way with my M4's, don't worry-

You have no chance of making it to Legend status within the next 6 years as they've reduced the little XP you've earned while getting slaughtered! Yay!!

 

One word -

 

Fail

 

I do sincerely hope these multiple issues will be addressed. Sure- new release, bugs, blah, blah, blah. Plain and simple, your customers, the one's paying your bills have spoken. They do not want this.You should listen.

I hate matching! OMG

Ok, so here it is, and I tried it. I saw how it worked. I tried it again. Played a bit. And then tried again.

 

I don't like it, sorry.

[r_Dumbbell1 0]

It is horrible. I can have my exp mission done in 2 to 3 battles I spent 25 to 30 minutes before but today I need more than 60 minutes. Half of the time was wasted on waiting and changing to another maps. It is waste of my time. Why you don't let us to chose maps? I can use that extra wasted time to play other games or do something else. It is ridiculous.

There are many issues in the current implementation of Matchmaking, but I can expand on the original announcement that MM was designed and released to bring equal battles and ease of finding a match to the game. Is it working? Far from it. Was is intended to be broken on the launch day? Absolutely not. Since every major release continues to be challenging to put out, the best we as a moderation team can do is to read your concerns, find real issues and broken parts of the update, and report them to the devs for urgent fixes. What is the grand plan behind MM or any other major release is not for me to guess, and, hopefully, we will reach a point when new updates are openly discussed by the devs with the community when they are in active testing on test servers.

 

Right now, we read, the devs work, and we thank you for the detailed, strictly on point critique of the new features.

On quick squim the only reasonable staff reply.

 

Not that I don't still feel like:

Hi everyone? How ya' doin'? How do you guys have time to collect 62 pages of posts?!

Well, since it's more fun to critique MM than it is to actually play it - we're making time.

 

The volume of feedback is in direct proportion to the "suckiness" of the current iteration of MM.

 

Hope this helps.
