Arcade Format Battles [ARC]


Recommended Posts

Among the options of Pro Battle Formats such XP/BP and XC, there lacks an option to create battles for all mid-range assault-style turrets, without being disturbed by close combat melee weapons or long ranged turrets. Due to less popularity, the Striker-Hornet battle format is seldom used. Thus, there can be a new option for Format Battles, that is, Arcade Mode or ARC.
The turrets allowed are: Smoky, Thunder, Striker and Gauss.

Along with the general Arcade mode allowing all hulls, there are hull-specific subcategories:

  • Light Hulls + Arcade [LARC]
  • Medium Hulls + Arcade [MARC] 
  • Heavy Hulls + Arcade [HARC]

 

If you read the whole idea carefully, share your feedback below.

No one will play it though. Look at XC format - I haven't seen a single public battle with it.

That's why I suggested to combine Striker with Smoky and Thunder. I mentioned that above...

What is unfair about close range weapons?-you can use them too!

Besides-we also hate Mid-rangers, So why do you need 'your own format'?

 

My Isida is coming after you!!

p.s.I understand that 'Arcade Mode' sounds catchy-but what does it have to do with Mid Range turrets?

It's a Special Mode only for Smoky, Thunder and Striker.

And your Isida was denied permission to enter.

Why do you guys need your own special group specifically for Mid-Rangers over Long-Rangers and short rangers?

I meant in regular modes.

You understand it's for Pro Battles, right? Where people play to have their own choice of Mode such as XP/BP is only for Hornet/Wasp + Railgun.

You can't just say that it isn't a good idea if you can't play them. Viking-Thunder battles have been a hit and they still are. If players don't want to get sniped by Shafts or troubled by Firebirds, they should have their choice of Format Battle.

Arcade stands for:

All

Ranges (Short/Mid/Long)

Can

Always

Defend

Everything

 

So why does this have anything to do with mid-range players?

How about AMPWIPT

All

Mid-rangers

Play

Well

If (they)

Play

Together

That's kinda cringe and stupid. The weapons allowed in this format are assault-style weapons, that don't melee attack nor are single shot (not to be confused with one-shot) turrets having a long reload. Thus, this mode is called Arcade, not because of some randomly made full form.

XC is Hornet-Striker (Russian characters)

XP is Hornet-Railgun (Same)

BP is Wasp-Railgun (Same)

So, with such a diverse format including all hulls or weight specific subcategories, as well as Smoky, Thunder and Striker; it is difficult to name them based on the equipment allowed.

 

It's kinda pointless and noobish to argue on a name, tbh.

When I saw your title, my first thought was a mode where only Shaft could play the scope would be disabled. I like your idea.

The point is not about the acrostic-its that arcade can be any combo?

Whatever.

Arcade is a name that's not yet been fixed by the developers. This topic is about this particular type of Format battle, not what it's name should be. If they feel they need to add a Russian touch to it, they may do so.

I've made battles in that format a few times, but no one showed up. I guess I'm the only one in Tanki that would play it.

Added Gauss to the turrets allowed. ¯\_(ツ)_/¯

Doubt the developers are willing to work on Format battles anymore, since now only Mk7 level players can play in them.

I think you forget rico and twins....if there are weapons that are assault style, its those. Short-mid range with high damage

I thought about them, but they are capable of firing rather quickly as compared to the ones I included. Minus-field Rico is more of like it.
