Matchmaking is coming May 29th

[SYSEIK 34]

Hello, I search the real TO since 2 days , anyone know where it is ? :(

It's been getting further and further away from us for a couple of years now.

 

It disappeared completely a couple days ago, coUgH cOuGh hint hint

Hello, I search the real TO since 2 days , anyone know where it is ? :(

Gone for good, I'm afraid. Fun is not a word in the vocabulary of the devs. Dictatorship is. This game has been going downhill for the past two years. Time to jump ship and carry my few pennies elsewhere. TO does not deserve them.

Look, it's understandable that the developers want to implement a matchmaking system. The only problem is that they're not making it an option, they're making it a requirement to play. I have no problem with a matchmaking system so long as we get the choice to use it or not. Instead of forcing players to use MM, thus alienating literally thousands of people, why not just make it optional? Make it so that it has obvious crystal/exp advantages over regular battles where you can choose the map and battle yourself. (e.g, better rewards for the losing team). That will appeal to more people, and I guarantee that many of us will occasionally play on MM even if we're hating on it right now.

 

There's no problem with MM itself. The problem lies in that you have taken away our freedom of choice. And if it's something you persist in, then I'll be jumping ship. Permanently.

Well said. I feel the same and I'm quite sure most other tankers think the same too.

EDIT: Yeah there are many problems with MM but I get your point. xD

This Match Maker System does one thing, and one thing only, it takes away the freedom of the players who have made Tanki what it is today.

 

Everyone who has spent money on this game should demand a full refund until they put Non-Pro Battles back on the Battlelist, Trash the MatchMaker program and fire the guy who keeps pushing it on the players.

About this downgrade you call MatchMaking.

 

You take away my choice of maps to play and the team to join. You force me to join a random map with no clue how my equipment or better yet, my playing style with my eq suits that map. You had the "Battle!" button on the menu for quite a long time, but we do not see the stats how many players chose to use that option. Forcing MatchMaking to everyone is a bad move, really bad. It takes away our freedom of choice to play what we want. Make it optional and see how popular wit will become.

 

You keep the Pro-battles just like they were, but now I have to pay crystals to play like I used to, choosing maps and teams on my own. Again, this is not an upgrade, this is a downgrade and shows how arrogant and ignorant you are towards players and this seems to be by choice. I know not everyone agrees with me, but if you bow to one direction, you unwillingly show your asshole to the opposite direction. Guess which scenery I am currenlty watching?

 

This downgrade is the cherry on top. There has been so many bad or downright ****ty "upgrades" over the past two years and you keep loosing players. Why continue? Why not admit that mistakes were made and get some most-wanted features back. Like the map "enhancements". You claim that maps were edited to suit 10 vs. 10 players and now you have decided that MM is 8 vs. 8 players but you do not bring the old maps back. Lame excuses is all I have heard. Hull modifications were also just horrible. Now, instead a number of different hulls, we have basically three different hulls with only minor differences. Wasp used to be really fast, but now it is just a slimmer version of Hornet. Mammoth and Titan are way too close to each other and Viking, Hunter and Dictator do not differ that much on the stats. You say game balance, I say bull****. The ultimate balance will be when all turrets and hulls have same stats.

 

Last but not least: REMOVE MAGNUM TURRET ASAP!!!! This was the ****tiest upgrade ever ever ever to happen on TO. Maps are not designed for this turret and it has ruined a nubmer of old maps that were fun to play. The worst example is Noise. Stick magnum somewhere were the sun will never shed even a single ray of light. Ever.

[HornetCZ 10]

Hmm there's only pro battles !?

I'm done for at least 8 weeks, and I'll probably get it

I wholehearted the staff that these stupid and idiotic updates cast a non-existent light of hope.  :)

less maps = less wait time .

less maps = less wait time .

Less maps = more boring

Less maps = less variability

Less maps = (evetually) less players.

 

RIP TO. It was fun as long as it was fun.

Magnum - or at least, a mortar-like gun - was an expressed desire of many people. Removing it is going to be incredibly inconsiderate towards all those who have adapted to it and those who have invested in the gun.

 

I personally only find it mildly annoying

Indeed! And fewer weapons and hulls mean quicker login times too...

[ByeByeBye 1,747]

Latin players are getting the same thing...maybe a bit worse since this is peak play time.  I actually got into a DM battle about 5 minutes after i took this screen shot.  So about 36 minutes in queue to join a DM battle.

I couldn't resist and I couldn't get into a battle...idle hands and all  :)

Not trying to be rude but why not actually PUNISH the mults? 

 

I'm all for punishing them harshly, but you should know that that 1 day is for first time offenders. If they do it more often, the harsher the punishment will be. Since I'm not a battle moderator, I unfortunately cannot tell you how quickly the duration and severity of the punishments increase.

They wanted to run some more checks on it, before they release it. It should still arrive soon.

This feature was tried before and failed horribly - now again - WTH.

This feature sucks - its like being in a dictator regime - no freedom to choose.  

It takes to long to join a battle

Cant select the battle I want.

I always wind up at the bottom of the ranking so my ass is being killed immediately,

For some reason every battle I have been in is nothing but noob druggies - I don't like being just a target.

SAD! - my opinion this was a duuuummmbbbb move.

[Zubeneschamali3 27]

Just checking if they've repealed this awful update. 

 

The matchmaking system has been successful in weaning me off this game. I'd come over for a quick game here and there all through the day. Now everytime I unconciously go the tanki, matchmaking reminds me softly that the game I've been playing for years is now gone, gone, gone. 

 

I am now free to do other things. Finally released into the wind. Free to discover the world again.

Even though it takes me ages to find a map that suits a sniper, the odd thing is when I do get one, the battle is even more unfair than it was before. The enemy team isn't full of snipers looking for me. And neither is my team, so I get to pick off everyone a lot easier. They all arrive with their slow dictator/ricochet tanks without Shaft protection and they haven't a chance. It's like shooting fish in a barrel.

I had high doubts that we will win....

I wonder why they run those checks. Everytime they release something new, it's full of bugs ^^

It's called Agile programming. The whole industry now depends on buggy releases.

[Coriolano 78]

Excellent update.... But it doesn't still work unlucky  ..... Tanki, you must penalize those players who leave as soon as their team is losing.... They want just to win easy..... 

[DRAKO523 795]

This feature was tried before and failed horribly - now again - WTH.

​The last time it was tried and mentioned that it was a test​ not official, they have improved lots of bugs then the last time it was tested on the live servers, before the ranks where all over the place, now we only see a few ranks out of hand in Legend battles etc. But the massive other lags, not being able to complete missions etc are much better then the last test. They've worked for a year and done a pretty good job, now their working on the other little issues while it's active ;p. 

[Spurger 174]

In the next V-Log TO will talk about how most players have welcomed the MMS. They'll admit there were a few who did't like it, and then explain that most of their frustrations were caused by bugs in the game and a misunderstanding of the game's new mechanics.

 

They'll go onto explain that most of the bugs have since been fixed and that players are adapting. They'll announce a sale and everyone will go giddy over free crystals, double battle funds, and GBs and then all will be forgiven and forgotten.
