Why would you expect anyone to listen to you when you insult them?

You think Shafts with no laser was balanced?

 started playing in 2015 and it was not as "balanced" as you claim.  There were Captains running around with Prodigi paint.

Back then - only buyers had supplies and there were no cool-downs on the supplies.  The only players capping flags were buyers that had unlimited supplies.  Only way non-buyers could get hold of decent amount was getting a Kit.  And even those supplies did not last forever.

That is so true. Imagine playing against someone with unlimited supplies activated all the time. There are players with well over 100K health packs used.

The thing you guys were talking about

 

I have read all that.

Let's pretend the silly conversion from m to mk that gave low ranks access to mk7 equipment never happened - since eventually that effect will disappear.

In case above long-term, I don't see how your proposal will work better than the current 7mk splits.

1) More splits no means there is less difference between the low-power and high-power entering battles

2) The system downgrades equipment to current match AND punishes the rank of the player.  If they are on equal footing item-wise why do they have penalties?

3) There is no real incentive to upgrade equipment.  If you can't strategically improve your items, why would buyers spend $ to just play someone with same gear?

4) Your proposal is quite complex and I really don't see Devs investing time in that.

Why do you think the current system with 7 mk splits won't work?

Please chat in a manner which does not provoke any of the players, furthermore if you still feel the urge to exchange similar words i suggest you to slide into each others DM's and find an end.

i take back my previous reply .last time i replied to this topic i was a first lieutenant .now im at captain rank and  the highest gear ive got is mk5  .and ive to battle against buyers with mk8s .yes mk6s fair enough ,mk7 hard but killable,mk8 buyers with endless drugs .thats impossible to kill.these people have like 0 skills and only their money.totally one sided game play causng non -buyers to lose interest.u wanna balance mm?

make it basedon the highest GS not the rank .maybe then well have a balanced gameplay

Actually MM I think rn should be based off of efficiency, so you can play with players with accounts similar to yours.

tanki x had it right when they 1st released automatic matchmaking. a mode where it was just anyone of any skill level, then ranking that was basically skill based matchmaking. you could have all the top gear but if you sucked then you would be in lower matchmaking, if you had bad gear but where good you would be in your skill set. same way matchmaking works in most decent multiplayer games. the rank system here is not only outdated but also doesnt at all reflect the kind of player you will be against. if they wanted a better matchmaking then it should be based on gear score, but i think they will just keep it the way it is until it dies because its heading that way fast considering the player count, may well be too far gone to bother fixing matchmaking balance. (besides, when max gear score players get matched up against other max gs players they wont be able to steamroll and then will probably quit since money is there only asset and only thing that puts them above the rest rather than having any real talent). 

new accounts being made are just smurfs, unless you are low rank you cant tell your friends about the game and ask them to ply with you because of the way ranks work so there is no real source of new players, there is no advertising, and due to lack of sbmm new players get matched with smurfs and get washed so just quit because its not fun. its a bad business model and a bad way to run the game imo.

yes, when I played Tanki X, there has been times where I was like rank Cadet 1st Class, saw a Legend in my MM battle.

How do people not understand there would not be TO in future if HTML5 was not adopted. THERE IS NO MORE SUPPORT FOR FLASH.

TX would not be still alive.  There was so much wrong with it I just stopped playing. Was not worth my time. And apparently not worth most peoples time - the game folded because of lack of players.

You are both using willful ignorance with the balance and no extreme buyers.  There were recruits in TX battles with Tier 3 modules.  Without buyers in TX, there is no game.

Again - how do you put players into battles based on GS?  I have mk1 equipment in my garage.  And why would anyone pay to upgrade items if they could not use better items?  Games don't support themselves.

Tanki Online should take ideas from Tanki X now since TX is dead.

Does anybody know what % of time played is still in Flash? I have the feeling it is way more than the devs want us to and I mostly hear people in the chat either complain about it or just play flash (like me).

I love Flash TO 

Also, haven't check out the Forum in a bit and, bruh

Pre-battle lobby is one of the few I would adopt. 

Games looked similar, but were quite different.  Players who wanted to play TX would have done so if it was better.  They did not because it was not.

So trying to adopt much from TX will be futile - look at the pushback on the changes already being made.  Trying to make a hybrid of the two games will just drive more players away IMO.

2).. if I had some really low equipment and some mid-high rank equipment... I could always ensure I had equipment that matches the best equipment in the battle.  Enter with low-GS gear to get matched in a recruit battle.  Then switch to high gear that gets downgraded to the max qualification.

Should make doing missions a bit easier...

3)By upgrading item you open yourself a opportunity to unlock new battle range hence new equipments such as alterations and drones

2) Okay... but... a bunch of high-rankers enter the battle that way to try and complete missions - all with max equipment.  This gives the shaft to all legitimate tankers of that rank who will now face a disproportionate amount of maxed-out enemies.  And these enemies will still have access to their unlimited supplies.  The players completing their "Top-3" missions will all be Legends who downgraded for this specific purpose.

3) That's no incentive to buy with $.  They can get that by just progressing naturally.  Many of the buyers spend $ so they have a much better chance at the best rewards (Top-3, battle-fund, Stars).  There would be a significan drop in income for TO if this was adopted.

 

Let me re-phrase... why do you think the current MatchMaker based on ranking - with the 7 splits on allowed items -  won't work?

[sharifsahaf 656]

dear sir ,u just said all i wanted to i totally agree with and support u . AND -@wolverine848 no offense dude if u think all our ideas are flawed maybe share some of your except tighter ranking in a battle .cause  when i see players with mk8 equipments in my rank while the max i could do is mk6 by mu ing my equipments .that doesnt work .maybe u hated TX -but honestly it was waay fairer than this .and ive been here since 2013 .im not denying some of  the updates made since then were good but most of them were crappy and pay 2 win pushing the game to its near -death .the devs dont seem to care bout any of our opinions anyways so whats the point

You only see this NOW - after the botched m-to-mk conversion.  New players will not have mk7+ items at that rank. The only ones that do got them due to conversion and will rank up soon and fight their peers.

Did Devs botch the conversion?  Yes - big time.  But it was a one-time thing.

It is not useful to try to implement a completely new system to correct a temporary issue that will soon correct itself.

What if tanki add ranked matches? Which are different from MM battles. In MM we choose mode. in ranked it send to random mode, and its rank should be separate from current rank system. I mean seasons..

 

Just like call of duty mobile

Planned for a future release, but HTML5 conversion must be completed first. After that's done, I think ranked MM will be quite high up on the priority list.

Exactly. Just like in TX or other similar MMOs.

I really wonder what the Hull alts are going to do, since devs do not seem to give us proper information about it. Its either cheap and destroys fire and freeze, or expensive and just for buyers which would make the game unfair IMO.

Yeah pro battles doesn't sound like a bad idea at first but don't pro-battles often have alterations on!?

That would be so ridiculous - I would not put it past them to try that.

I certainly don't see then available in garage for Hunter alterations.  Only shows stock.

Don't fuss.  I just bought 12 Ultra containers and got Normal container prizes.

I think you'd have to buy hundreds of these things.... and you still probably wouldn't get a Hunter alt out of them.
