What Is Your Opinion About the Current State of Tanki Online?

My answer is: I hate it. I think the game has started well from 2021, adding Shards and Hot Sales (now gone) and stuff, but it has really gone downhill from there. Below are some of the problems that I think the game has.

• Cool Augments are basically locked in Containers, or an insanely high crystal price.    // This seriously affects game balance

• Running low on supplies and how difficult they are when you do not spend money in-game.    // Drones usage has become a standard of the game

• Majority of updates not asked by the player base, and rather just the developers adding whatever they want.    // This seemed to have improved

• Tanki Online Mobile still isn't available on the iOS devices.    // It's coming?

• Striker Crit, Gauss Crit, Freeze Crit, Viking OD, and the Saboteur Drone are Overpowered.    // Needs nerfs ASAP

• Tanki Online Developers need to listen to their player base more often.    // This seemed to have improved

• No equipment change.  // Presets when?

• Thunder sucks.  // Needs buffs ASAP

First off when did this become "YOUR TOPIC", although I think the added text gives players more scope to understand and reply accordingly.

1-Augments-Agree.

2-Supplies are easier now to obtain and I think most players have enough to get by.

3-Updates-Agree, apart from your last comment, it has not improved at all.

4-Mobile- I understand why it's in the game but that being said, I have no time for any of them and enjoy greatly destroying them in battle.

5-crits and drones- I think this comment is now obsolete as all turrets have the ability to 1 shot anything, saboteur is not as game changing as it might once have been.

6-Totally and irrevocably agree, although again your last comment is way off, the devs never, ever act on sensible, well thought out posts that are written by anyone over the age of 7.

7-No comment, not bothered.

8-Thunder now is the opposite to "sucks". 

Don't know how or why you took over this topic but for me it makes sense. A adult with a understanding of most things in the game is what is needed to help players get their valid points across, whether they be critical or in favour of what the devs do.

I think everyone knows my thoughts on TO and until NO.6 is acted on, this game will continue to go downhill with every OP update the devs bring out.

I will reiterate one last time concerning the appalling MM system that has never worked since day one.

Here is my solution "AGAIN" to improve it across the ranks that are most affected by it.

1- More CRY to XP is needed for low to mid rank players all the way to marshal. Ratio of 3-1 should suffice.

2-The XP needed to rank should be at least 2X more and I would say 3-4X more from recruit to major. After major you should be well versed in the game and should have been able to upgrade your garage to a good level for the higher ranks that are to come, where having a good, solid garage is a must.

3-This is a new one AND NOT MY IDEA. Give new players more than 1 turret/hull at the beginning, this will increase the enjoyment for new players and stop the boredom and tedious game time confined to one boring combo.

4-This is also a new point and I somewhat agree with the devs on this one (no, I have not lost the plot) Bringing in "bots" WILL help the rank spreads, but only "IF" NO.1 and NO.2 are introduced into the game. Bots on there own will not improve MM.

5-TO THE DEVS;- If you really want to rescue your MM and make the experience of TO that much better, at least for the ranks between recruit and marshal, then these idea's I believe are the solution.

It disappeared for some reason when I was looking for it. Maf explained and made me the topic starter to keep it around.

They should just reverse the XP gain rate. It's absurd.

Tanki Online is dead as Lancia

I dunno what they've changed, but I feel Tanki has been experiencing more ping spikes and lag to the point where it's not playable anymore.

well they are a lot of things within the game balance tanki need to fix for example one main update they should release is the partship of the buyers and non buyers or they need to fix low rank players fighting against high level players , well bots in the game weren't enough because event modes on low rank account did't get changed , i played yesterday on a master sergant account and i was up against majors , lieutenants and warrrant officers .

not enough to fix the balance of the tanki which was current at 2016/2018.

Did you change your mind 23 minutes later?

Hell no. It's sarcasm. You should have known that because a lot more players have left the game than joined in the past 8 years.

There were 300k+ players online when I played in 2014, 9 years ago, now there are only a few thousand online at most.

Oh I know. I knew that back when they had many servers you couldn't enter a few because they would be so full.

Its so freaking funny you can get maxed equipment at lieutenant colonel. (I left due to the rank/gs differential). One upon a time when ranks really mattered

lol I have seen a warrant officer 5 with 9999 gs before, those accounts are rare now as you can't get mk7 kits at low ranks anymore

Come back after a while and was shocked to see how far this game has fallen. I used to play during the golden age 2012-2017 and this game has truly gone bad now. Can anyone tell me what happened?

About 1000 bad updates.

Wait, when did the "one topic per user per day" rule become a thing?

I'm still in charge of I&S though.

Another question, how come you can't receive messages anymore?

There were 2-3 players making endless ideas per day, which most of them were naive ideas.. Example but not exclusive:

Oh, my PM capacity went down from 50k back to 1k messages, and I already have around 1300, so can't accept any more. Thanks for telling — I just cleaned out my inbox

Welp, I guess that's what happens when people become popular. Their inbox starts to fill up very quickly.

Wow this game has truly gone silent.

There is a reason for the silence.

The main (but not only) reason for this is that the game sucks and thousands upon thousands of players left.

There really is no way to sugar coat it.

But tanki's employees really don't care as long as they get your money.

They also delete messages and posts that they take objection to.

It's randomly enforced depending on who you are.

Not sure about the supposed bias you're hinting at here but it's completely false as far as I've seen.

As for the second part, yeah, of course the Forum Moderators enforce the rules if you're repeatedly breaking them. That's the case for literally every online forum with active moderators and rulebreakers. If someone's breaking a lot of rules very frequently, more action needs to be taken, y'know

Respectfully, you have not seen what I have seen, so you can't really comment on this.

And no, not everyone is banned for breaking the rules.

I appreciate that you think you know what you are talking about, but you do not.

The admins here know exactly what I am referring to as do several tankers who have witnessed it as well.

 

Thank you for your comment.
