Episode 189 of the V-LOG is live!

Well... looks like Wolverine will give up on missions then - since

 

1) I play casually - not gonna complete 20 missions per week

2) match-maker is absolutely terrible

 

I now have the excuse to give MM the boot.

I'm thinking in playing with only one alt for the 10 or maybe 20 in regular days, and only with 1 main during 2X. If battles continue to be bad I may play only PRO Battles, one account at a time until these accounts become less competitive, with Drones, Overdrives and Alterations OFF of course.

 

But why do you worry too much? you're a Legend, it's not like you're ranking up too fast compared to your peers. Unless they make missions for Legend different, like I'm suggesting right now, negative missions maybe... ;)

 

So if I understand correctly, now there's Daily missions and Weekly missions? What I don't understand is, what is needed to get that maximum prize of 6 containers? Also, what is needed to get those weekly containers?

 

Re-watching through a few times this is how I understood it:

Current mission chain system of 10 weeks will be scrapped completely. Mission chain will now reward 6 containers for everyone that does at least 1 daily mission per day. "Weekly containers" will be awarded if the 3 weekly missions are completed as well. Am I close?

Looks like Missions Chains will be history, instead we'll get 3 Weekly Missions, likely to be completed in a week.

Make the map available for the full length of celebration. This map bring back old memories.
Make x20 golds for 1 day no problem, but we need the map. 

[Ninja 10,468]

It says there will be 3 Weekly Missions; 1 about exp, crystals, kills or who knows what else'; then 2 about Daily Missions (Complete 10 or 20).

 

The Complete 20 Daily Missions will mean completing all Daily Missions but 1, since the total Daily Missions in a week is 21.

 

And they also said that Daily Missions will become harder, but with increased rewards.

Ahh, that makes more sense. I was a little confused with the explanation in the vlog.

Me too.

 

Just like you, I don't play everyday. Usually I do 1 to 2 missions each time. 20 missions per week means 3 per day, in average; It is too much for me, or say: for us. This game is getting harder and harder unless you use real money. That means differences between buyers and non-buyers are becoming bigger and bigger; don't forget buyers can also do all kinds of missions and they can do them easier because they pay for better tanks. Is Tanki trying to get rid, or at least to minimize the number, of non-buyers (although Tanki won't charge but the game play will do the job)?

We'll see how the weekly missions work, but I'm afraid it won't be enough to make up for the removal of mission chains.

This account is my highest.  Only thing keeping me in MM is weekly mission chain - which I can keep going by doing 1 mission per day, or less.

So.. if they try to force me to play everyday, and do > 1 mission every day to get my container allotment this, account will just switch to pro battles, and probably play even less.

 

I have another account that is Colonel and has been on week 10 of mission chain for a while.  If it is too much of a chore to get containers, then it too will switch to Pro-Battles only.  Or find something else to do - not the only game in town.

 

Tanki is just driving players away from matchMaker.  Not so smart...

The 20 Missions a week requirement for top rewards will be hard, especially with the harder missions and one sided MM battles, something like 10 would be good for 2 containers, then the other two Weekly Mission could be about kills and exp, totalling 6 containers.

 

Now there's another angle, dedicated free players can stay competitive against buyers by playing daily, while most buyers will be unable to complete Weekly Missions, unless they want to no life too, which for some it will mean making less money in real world to spend some of it in Tanki.

I think for me it will depend on whether a week is defined by achieving 3 weekly missions or by completing the 3 weekly missions within 7 days. If it's the latter, I probably won't fulfill them, at least not so often as I used to.

[fordmustang12345 3,910]

I'm going to be so pissed if they add an altercation that restores Twins to the Old twins, not because I don't want it back but because them nerfing the shot speed was just a reason to sell something

[Pyre 3,485]

Interesting. I hope the new mission system doesnt prove too hard, some of us have lives you know :X Looking forward to the new Overdrives, and I really like that Firebird skin.

[Benefactor 6,888]

You got that right.

[Hancho 3,902]

That sounds like an extra stress to me.

I'm competitive with buyers already without "no-lifing".  Why would I want to start now?

You see what they did there?

[DieselPlatinum 5,121]

This is the way it is when a company is taken over by greed. There is a law most of you have never heard of: the law of supply and demand. If you are selling apples, you sell them too cheap you run out of apples. You sell them to high you don't sell any apples. Tanki is too high for what you get and too skinny on discounts. Failure is going to occur.

 

I have half a million crystals and I will not spend one until mu are 50-75. So maybe Christmas?

 

Tanki = greed. Incompetence. Lack of proper planning. Most of all, lack of business understanding. NONE

And all this, because the devs thought it was a good idea to put in star week events every couple weeks with their own sales.

[ThirdOnion 4,898]

Game is becoming more like Tanki X. Alterations, drones, increased importance of supplies. Not really a bad thing unless the devs mess it up, which they undoubtedly will.

 

Firebird skin looks horrendous.

[austen_pierce 1,948]

We need to be able to complete MORE than 3 missions per day.

 

Why?

 

20 missions in a week is easy. But not everyone can play every day. By limiting players to the current 3 missions per day, you are effectively going back to forcing players to play every day.

 

If players can complete an unlimited number of missions per day, we can do them when we have time (this was the entire POINT of the last mission update). Trust me - players will do this in order to get the best weekly rewards.

 

Please consider.

[Michael828 816]

I have a feeling it's gonna be more like a "star year" from now on.

 

 

 

Okay here's some dose of pessimism: The sales are bad, the drones will cause huge imbalances, the overdrives will probably be delayed another 5 months, alterations are just gonna restore the recent changes done to turrets in the past 2-3 months, the holiday map is gonna be filled with Dictators so even if 5000 golds fall you're gonna get none, and now they found a way to screw the mission chains.

They should, but at this point, do you think they will? Nope. They don't give a Damn about our opinions, they just look at their data, which may be misleading. And makes changes based on that data.

[GuidoFawkes 2,361]

you people think fire and freeze are too OP? axaxaxa look at magnum's last 2 alterations, it'll soon be able to wield the effects of both of them

I swear, if your right...

[CabbageRoll 3,018]

yes we HAVE 20x goLDS and2^20  JUMP hackers!!!!!!

I am asking the developers to allow more than three missions to be completed in a single day. I disagree that they will not listen, especially if enough of us ask.

 

Please, everyone concerned about not being able to complete three missions every day, yet probably able to complete 20 missions over the course of a week, please respond and add your voice to my proposal.

 

My point to the developers is that there is no difference over the course of a week as to when tankers play. 20 missions spread over a couple of day’s activity or even a single day of no-lifting is not different than three missions completed every day. The player spends the same time in the game per week.

yeah they literally made best update ever with stopped mission chains now they will make it worse than before good job tanki

Basically i can still earn 10 weekly which i assume is 4 containers and just activate overdrives alone lol

Actually - I really hope they screw this up royally - will push me to Pro-Battles for sure.

 

Just left another Match-Maker battle where after 30 seconds it was 6 tanks vs 2 tanks. 

Battle after that... 4-0 other team with 3 minutes left on clock when I entered. LMAOROTF.

 

MM is a piece of crap. I suspect the "developers" (I use that term loosely) had 50 chimps in a room with keyboards randomly typing in "code". After 1 week Match-Maker was born.
