completed More variety of challenges.

[DieselPlatinum 5,121]

If the challenges have to stay at least change the requirements from time to time. For example, right now the challenge is to earn stars. So why not next time be something like score battle points or earn crystals or experience points or even destroy tanks?

Stars have proven themselves as a fair, efficient and interesting system, so there is no real need to change it. There's hardly any benefit to it (besides "variety"), and a lot of effort required to rework it.

 

However, as announced in today's V-log, soon challenges will have some variety in form of additional group tasks, which players will have to do in teams, similar to the War.

Now that's a better way to incorporate variety. Actually, I'll give the idea the benefit of doubt and mark is started.

I'm hoping they will have one where it is like, "Don't play for 10 days, and you reach stage 1."  That would be awesome.

Anddd it would completely ruin the point of Challenges :p

Since "challenges" are basically already part of the game and happen every month, there is really no reason why Ranked Seasons shouldn't be added into the game. So, in addition to grinding to legend in the long-run, players can also grind for the highest rank in ranked seasons every month. There will be rewards for each rank. We will call the ranked season ranks "divisions" for the sake of clarity. To gain divisions in ranked season, players will have to gain ranked points, which can only be obtained by winning. If a battle ends in a win, each winning player will receive a certain number of points, depending on how well they performed and the number of points they scored. If a battle ends in a loss, each losing player will lose a certain number of points, depending on how poorly they performed and the number of points they scored. If a player ends up losing, but doing very well, they can still win a few points in consolation. If a battle ends in a tie, the point values will solely be determined number of points, which means that players can either win or lose points in a draw. The number of points lost should usually be less in magnitude than number of points gained, so it isn't impossible to progress. 

 

For instance, this example battle is to help you get the gist of this idea:

                   Blue Team   (5 flags captured)             vs.               Red Team (1 flag captured)

1.          Mafioso 500 pts (+50 ranked points)                            BobRoss 420 pts (+7 ranked points)

2.         Damn_Fast 495 pts (+48 ranked points)                       DalaiLama 350 pts (+2 ranked points)

3.         Brock_O'bama 360 pts (+35 ranked points)             LMAOKILLERTOTHELIFE 270 pts (-2 ranked points) 

4.         TheHighGround  300 pts (+26 ranked points)               Anakin      150 pts (-12 ranked points)

5.        noobmaster69     250 pts  (+22 ranked points)                 sensei_noob 20 pts (-26 ranked points) 

 

Of course, point values aren't the only factor. Time spent in the battle, battle outcome, and other factors will also play a role. I'm not trying to have this system replace challenges, but I think it would be wise for the devs to add this to the game in order to preserve the playerbase and give players a sense of novelty and direction once again.

Ranked Matchmaking is already planned, but won't happen anytime soon. If implemented, it won't be exactly as you describe, but it will add the same competitive aspect with it.

I think they decided to go for Special missions instead. Group tasks are never a good idea. In Tanki or real life

Thatvs true that the best events were the solo events, like in 2019 may. But i would be good to have some events.

Challenges themselves became standardised, but the variety was instead incorporated into Special Missions, which now happen on a semi-regular basis and have a variety of different requirements to complete them.
