April 2019: The War of Thrones!

[TheTruth 22]

So if i do for example 1750 stars, but my faction lose, i get nothing?

If your faction loses you get nothing.

[Bydo 20,142]

feel sorry for all that players who played last month to collect those paints . cause now there in this months star battle.

 

I would like to see some rare paints that we don't have or can't get from future containers.. this way it might get more interested in the star battles more..also this months tiers are garbage there mainly drugs for the first 20 .. then it gets a little better.

Don't know why it wasn't available for you. :/

Sure it's my choice.  If a lot of current players "don't play" though - have fun waiting even longer for MM battles.

Think of Challenge and WAR as events for those that play a lot. And if they play a lot and also pay some money, then it's good for the game.

 

We are not forced to play a lot, we can just do 1 or 2 missions a day and rank up slow.

 

Don't let the shinny stuff deceive you.

Well...

 

First the missions were changed drastically in that they favor hard-core players much more than "casual" players.

 

Then Challenges were added - mostly to reward buyers and hard-core players.

 

Now the WAR has been changed so much from original conception of "everyone" can play to... "don't bother unless you're playing A LOT"

 

What's next?

Keep in mind that Tanki needs more players and needs players playing longer to fill battles. They can't bring new players or maintain the ones it has because the game is not good, but these updates I think do keep some players playing longer.

 

I agree that for soft core players the rewards are not very good, and Tanki should be careful of that. I think they need to make missions a little easier. I think they should remove the floater weekly mission and instead the 20/20 mission should give 2 containers.

 

The other thing to keep in mind is that players playing longer for challenges and WAR are also ranking up too fast, which is not good, unless you're a Legend.

 

Non buyers need to rank up slow, doing 1 or 2 missions a day if they want to do well. If they want shiny things the have to spend more time or spend some money.

 

The problems we are right to complain about are MM, Groups, Drones and Overdrives. Just my two cents.

The thing is there are different groups of players in ANY game. There are casual players, there are avid players, and there are completionist players.

 

To each one their own, and none of the groups have any right to put down or ridicule the other groups. And as with any other game, we try to create content for every one of those groups. If you're a casual player, don't push yourself to complete the monthly challenge or win the WAR. Participate if you wish, and have fun if you do. But stop there. On the other hand, don't resent completionist players for wanting to get all the tiers and rewards.

 

Some months back, I was pretty active in Destiny 2. I played quite a bit. But there were certain events that I didn't push for. They required an amount of play time that was just beyond me. That's fine. And it's not fair for me to blame developers for creating a challenge that is beyond my means. Because if they lower the benchmark, then the completionist players won't be getting a good experience.

 

By the way, Destiny and Destiny 2 have often been criticised for their approach to events, because they "can be completed by everyone" so there's no real prestige for the hardcore players.

 

P.S. I'm not inferring that you belong to any one of the groups I mentioned specifically. And I'm not implying that you do any of the things I mentioned either. The personal pronoun in this post refers to players in general.

We said multiple times in our official announcement that the Arbiter would disappear from sale when the WAR starts officially. Sorry you didn't manage to get in.

Did you mean to quote me instead of Issimo?  Issimo seemed to be actually defending the current system...

 

It's not about resentment of other players. It's about not getting a fair shake from TO.

Pretty much all of the system changes are designed to reward buyers and hard-core players, and so casual players fall further and further behind.

 

At the very least make missions more possible for players who don't play each account 2 hrs per day.

 

Because if casual players continue to leave (or new ones don't stick) then guess what happens to buyers and hard-core players when they have to wait longer for battles and have only each other to fight?

Each WAR start the first of the month for 28 days. The announcement about the war is usually done a week in advance or more, so check the V-log on Fridays. The paint to participate will be available for sale three day before the start of the event. April got 30 days, so the paint would be available on the 28th of April till (for 3 days).
