Even the downloaded Tanki lags heavily sometimes.  I hate when enemy gets with our flag and I can't shoot straight due to heavy lag.    Crap is crap.

Imagine this, you are in the middle a battle and you are about to die and so you think "I'll just use my overdrive and save myself" and then you die. Most tankers have run into this before. And then to add on to the annoyance, it counts the overdrive and you have to wait for it to recharge. This is a problem that needs to be fixed that is causing frustration and anger among those who want to have a good D/L and/or who want to have a high place in a battle.

But nobody is responsible for your Overdrive though? It's a solo battle, you decide whether it's a good idea to use OD or not in the middle of the battle.

Its part of the game. Like X-O said its your decision. If everything worked out the way you wanted it then the game would be boring. IMO I need a challenge. And this is one of them.

And Dommoo5, the problem is the timing system. I've raised the issue a couple of times, and written it up as thoroughly as I'm able with limited knowledge. Things happen in an order chosen by the programmers. They happen in that order in the tick (quarter-second) following detection. So, why you press the shift-key, the system registers that and ques it for the next tick. In the mean time, you get hit, and it calculates your damage before it calculates the repair. Of course, it already reset your overdrive. There can also be lag issues associated with excessive ping, which is usually due to factors controlled only by the internet providers. (AT&T is bad in my experience.) Not much point in complaining about that because nobody here can do anything about it.

 

They can program the OD to not reset if you blow up within the next tick. I suppose that is on the list of things to fix, but it might take a couple years to get around to it.

Lifeguard drone? .-.

yea i have it but not getting me any more kills with it in play.. seems to only get about 10 kills per battles , in the past before drones came in I would get 20 or more kills..

I again ask for removal of the first place mission.

 

Ricosck just completed a TDM where I lead the entire battle. My team lead for about five minutes. Why did we lose? Can't tell. Though I got my first-place stars, I didn't advance my 15X-firsts. There is no rhyme or reason to it. X-O pretends it is easy, but I think X-O is just too far ahead to worry. None of it matters in X-O's world. It would matter little to me if I didn't have the one-week mission that takes three or four weeks to get one meager container with 125 more speeds or mines to add to my several thousand. 

Week 4 or 5 of this mission. Reward : 1 normal + 1 weekly container.

Since star-hunt started everybody is using drugs as much as possible to get as many stars as they can, which makes it even harder.

Please remove this kind of missions, or at least give us the opportuinty to change it.

Really Tanki? There was a Generalissmo in this battle but he left so I could not take the picture in time.

Can't you do something with this Weekly missions ? Just finished Complete daily missions 20/20 and now I need to wait 6 days and 16 hours ?

We've reported all three these issues. They are aware of the struggles, so for now we just have to wait until they're being addressed.

Wanna talk about Trash? This is it!

 

I swear, Tanki Online is getting more crappy by the second!

 

Look at this photo link! I understand we get 6 containers for completing weekly missions, but why can't it all be at once-like it used to?! It was better to reap your rewards that way. Check this out. They're not asking me to finish in 15 battles, NO! I have to finish in a winners position and all for what? One God forsaken container that'll only give me 125x Speed Boosts. Can you producers please make Tanki worth playing for again, instead of turning this into a "Pay-2-Play" Frenzy?! You make us waste our time to gain all of this experience and points just for little in return. I wouldn't be surprised if many people later stopped playing Tanki for good. Why do I have to waste my time to do this mission?! What's next, "Collect 1,600 Double Armor boxes," and your reward 5x batteries? This game is really turning into a waste of my precious time.

The issue has been reported already and several other players also had problems with the mission so the developers are already aware of the issue. For more info, check here.

Que the "you are not forced to do the mission" responses...

 

Wait till you get the triplet of daily missions that says "Finish 7 battles in ___ mode" ...3x.

Yes, 3 different "finish 7 battles" for a total of 21 'daily' missions on same day.

Use your free switch to get "Finish top-3 3x".   And weep.

[OKDad70 862]

I'm not sure what is your style of playing?...

 

At the moment I have 2140 stars - 140 stars weren't meant to be earned intentionally - they were earned by fun but I have never intended to become first in battles but somehow it happens, probably because I have more knowledge about battles. 

 

Don't get me wrong - I have left many battles because it was not balanced or had to face group of friends which is completely boring, why waste time in that battle? 

 

Know your gameplay style and work out how to become first then you get your 6 stars. It's all based on mathematics. 15xp per kill? Easy to become first but hey - not all people are focused on killing opponents. 

First, I almost never leave battles. The main reason I do is being stuffed into a hopeless match with too little time to help and no time to get missions or Stars.

 

X-O, I mean no disrespect; I'm simply being honest when I say it is hard to take you seriously.

 

Look at your profile and compare. Frankly, you must be one of Fortuna's favorites. The Efficiency Rating isn't particularly useful, but it is all we have, and it is a measure. Only about 800 players are better than you. Something like 100,000 players logged on yesterday. By this measure in the overall game you are better than all but 1 in 1000 players.

 

Can't you tell how much better you are than everyone else? Part of my own gripe about the game is how good I am versus how hard stuff is. I am certain IF it is hard for me, it is harder for most other players. Look at my profiles for OKDad70 and Ricosck. Dad got a drone with the sale and hasn't really used it yet. Ricosck has had one for a while (and a new one with the sale), but I use it sparingly so as to not run out of batteries. I try to use it when I figure it is worth it for me or for the team.

 

You seem to always use a drone, but I'm guessing. The profile has a glitch in that regard.

 

My style depends on the mode. I focus on flags for CTF. I don't much care how I do (unless there are Stars or Missions involved). I want to end the match with my team having more flags. I think I'm good at it. Perhaps I'm deluded, but I generally find my tactics and skills to contribute effectively.

 

For CP, I fight from the points. Bad for the K/D, but good for the team. Etc. I understand tactics. I have the skills. I contribute. I used to think I was generally 1st or 2nd at the end of battles. The more it matters, the less I think so.

 

I play to win the matches. I'm not worried about getting kills except to help the team. I use plasma. It is difficult to get more than 5 points per kill because I can't one-shot. I can't take out opponents in less than two seconds like the short range turrets and the main long range turrets.

 

Short range has its place, but I hate sniping. Camping is not something I can stand.

 

I play to fight, and it is much more fun when my team wins. I find little satisfaction in DM. It is especially frustrating when there are more than 10 turrets represented (as there often are).

 

Perhaps I've lost my point here (or never found it), but a few people act like some things are so easy. I am confident most players, the large majority of players, do not find it so easy as you say.

 

It has occurred to me that of the tens-of-thousands of players who log on most days, nearly none ever comment on the forums. Many participate in chat, but most only comment a little, and move on.

 

If I didn't care about any of it, I might lose the frustration. However, for a while I thought highly of Tanki, and I thought I could find likeminded players who would care to team and play together. All the old farts I found have quit. Too many changes. If my sons never played anymore, I don't think I'd still be here.

 

Maybe I can take a frivolous attitude and get over it all, but I'm more likely to just give up.

 

X-O, again, I don't mean to be down on you, but what you say isn't something I can do. Either because I don't think such is fun (and it doesn't contribute to my team), or I just don't get it done. One would think odds would even things out, but Tanki seems to be boom or bust almost all the time. Rarely does much of anything depend on skill.

 

Of course, if one takes the attitude that the only thing that matters is maximizing points, even if it ensures a team loss, well, then luck will have less to do with it and skill more. However, I like to say, "Snipers like to lose." The sniper might get the flag runner 3 out of 4 tries, but teammates pick it up, or the runner gets through often enough. For flags I always say defense loses. I say CTF = Attack Or Lose. A defense that thwarts 19 out of 20 attempts still loses 1 to 0.

 

I enjoy frustrating my opponents with incessant aggression and close-in fighting, but I really don't like the idea of frustrating my teammates because I don't care enough to try to help with the victory objective.

 

Perspective says that a large percentage of players don't care much. It would seem my burden to try anyway.

[OKDad70 862]

Are you saying that he's good but not intelligent because he's not taking into account others that are not as good as him?

Seems to me you are looking for a fight. I said nothing like that. I implied nothing like that.

[lssimo 1,559]

Sorry I misunderstood your post then.

 

Apart from that, I think quiting unbalanced battles is good. You can't solve all the game's flaws by being brave, helping the losing team, and hoping for a comeback. Many quit early on, big time buyers are the first to quit, they don't care a few crystals lost, and care even less about the team. Many that don't quit are actually the noobs, and if you are the brave that wants to help the team, you'll mostly be stuck with the noobs.

 

Many times I stayed too and realized that it's hopeless most of the time, I realized that if I had quited early maybe others would've quited as well and not endure get spawn killed later. Comebacks are rare and are rare because it's against the odds.

I suppose I'm wasting my time to bother posting another example.

 

Ricosck just completed an 8v5 CTF in 5.5 minutes, losing 0 to 7. Rickosck managed, barely, to exceed the threshold and be in first place on the losing team. 

 

I checked. Every player except Field Marshal Ricosck was a multilevel Legend. I also checked for drones. I saw more mines in that battle than I've ever seen before. Oddly, only four of those multilevel Legends had drones. Three of them had the Sabatour drone, which each seemed to have fully MUd, given there were rings of 9 mines everywhere. I was wondering if they'd hacked the cool down, but I suppose the problem was we were unable to kill the minelayers, so the mines stayed until I ran over them. I don't know how many times my Dictator was shot into a mine that I was dodging.

 

Again, MM is broken in multiple ways. Alterations are broken. Drones are broken. Oddly, both seem to be mostly ignored, even though playing gives one the impression everyone has them, especially drones. 

 

MM is broken. It needs to be fixed, but it cannot be fixed. Therefore, Devs, abandon MM, even if you want to keep pretending it is crucially important. Saying so in the Vlog doesn't make it so.

 

For the record, Ricosck fought that battle with a GS 9038. One of the opponents GS was 9875 (approximately, with no XT skin). My point being Ricosck wasn't outgunned, our team was. And, GS means nothing.

Hi, theres so much players who drug but can u remove the drugging in some battles please?.

[HairDryer 25]

There is so much lag due to all new features. I hate when enemy gets away with our flag due to low FPS, which makes driving and aiming a nightmare, especially with wasp. Even with downloaded version, when there is a lot going on in the battle, it starts to lag. Well done dear devs.

They really should present a "no drug" quick battle mode in MM.

Please fix the following issue with Isida (it may be an update but it definitely causes a big problem in gameplay for Isida and Vulcan players, ruining core game mechanics) - when an Isisa heals a Vulcan who has suffered self damage they will get little or no score. This may also apply to a lesser extent to healing from Twins or Thunder self-damage.

 

This is very bad as it means Isidas are now going to end up very low on the score boards and waste supplies/ crystals for doing their job as intended of healing their team, and working with Vulcans to form an effective combo. It is currently a waste to heal a Vulcan and will result in getting low stars/crystals and wasting supplies.

 

This may have been done to impact power-levelling but it is not necessary, since healing self damage is no longer the best way to level in MM battles anyway, and such players attempting to do so will be reported. In addition, no matter the reasons (whether for power levelling or even to attempt to balance out Isida/Vulcan) the impact of this change on regular gameplay, fun factor and tactics for Isida players, and those of self-damage turrets is too great, so it is not good for the game.

Am I missing something? The violations section is closed.

 

Well, I'll try here. 

 

I'm not sure why a player with two high-level Legend accounts will join a battle and mult, but Sweetality obviously did.

 

I was fighting, obviously, and we managed to win it, but the chat was constant. It seemed some love-struck dolt was pretending to woo some undisclosed player. However, right at the end, I realized the two pink Isida (visible under the Red battle screen) were sitting there doing nothing, and had been. I recall seeing them once earlier. I'd have recorded, but I didn't notice until the end.

 

I assume Tanki doesn't try to deal with mults anymore. Why? Why close the violations section of the forum?

 

Again, "Sippin' on straight chlorine...lovin' what I'm tastin'."
