its so obvious right now that MURDER HORNET is ridiculously unbalanced and needs to be either removed or reworked completely

dev 1: so how balanced should we make overdrives

rest of dev team: no

 

either way i will not stop my bloodshed on these MURDER HORNETS and their little magnums <--- most dangerous combo in tanki right now

pure ignorance from people who think this is balanced

this is regarding the new Ares hull

been watching in a few battles that the plasma ball/ OD that it takes way to long to hit its target after its been shot. giving the enemy time to leave the location target ,which the Ares player miss its target .

this either needs to be have more speed and less damage .

Complaint, 

243 pages of Complaints and feedback. Whats that, somewhere between 5 and 10 entries per page ...

1. Not 1 entry of the repetitive issues from the entire 243 pages seems to have had anything done about it. 

OR

2. Not 1 entry from the entire 243 pages has caused Tanki to comment or explain as to why something causes THEIR players such an issue.

Gee ..wonder why player numbers so low (and falling) and complaints are still rolling in ....

So ... if people have a good game experience they spread the word, spend $ and player numbers rise. Business 101.

Business 101! The idiots at Tanki do understand the word Business! So can any dumb ass from Tanki explain to me why in Flash when I click on the Missions button I am taken to a stupid web page telling me to play in HTML? I though you said Flash it will not go away until 11/30/2020.  Yeah, you may not like my language, but those and even some worse words describe you. No ifs or buts about it.

Just tried it myself, just another ploy by the devs to force you to play html5, well it's not gonna happen. All it has done as far as i am concerned is make me reject html5 even more. I will not be coerced into playing html5 by their underhanded tactics. I've been playing it constantly for most of this week to give it a real test out. It's still making you self destruct after going to the garage, the childlike gimmicky way it looks, especially the dumb outlines of tanks is annoying and off putting, and all the glitches like being frozen either at the start of a battle, are even mid way through a battle is just pathetic. So let's have a minor recap on some of the problems that the majority of players have complained about for months now and which the devs have done zip all about. 1-OVERDRIVES -MURDER HORNET (top of the list)  2-MM still as unbalanced now as it was when it first came out. 3-Ranks, (legend not included)  a typical battle will see a rank spread of at least 5, and in quite a lot of battles that can be as much as 9/10. Example, WO4 against brigadier-WO4 against marshal (and this does happen.) 4-HTML5, lots of problems none of them sorted. 6-New MK system, unless you were VERY FORTUNATE to have a account that had either maxed out M1 or M2 combos before the change to the MK system, the low to mid ranks as low as staff sergeant up to as high as brigadier were getting slaughtered in battle by their rank counterparts who had the above M1 or M2 combos maxed out. That gave M1 a MK4/5 combo and M2 a MK7 combo. Now if you have the cash you can acquire any or all of the MK7 combos at lieutenant colonel, and if cash really is no obstacle for you, then you can technically have a garage as strong as a legend rank. These i believe are the main issues with TO. As to why none of the above has been fixed, nerfed, scrapped or reworked to make it more balanced for the majority of players is a question unfortunately we all know the answer to (with mabey the exception of html5) which is pants, COLD HARD CASH. This is what dominates most of the decision making when applying any new update within TO. This is why i hardly play anymore. Not bothered about the challenge (won't even go there as to how that affects battles.) Earning stars is just a by product of any battle i decide to go into, which is getting less because of the seemingly endless flaws which the devs seem to ignore in preference of bringing out a new hull, and to a large extent forcing players to switch to html5 which is plagued with problems.  I could have went on but really couldn't be bothered so i've left it at that.

Please remove this pop-up rubbish when trying to access missions on Flash.

Getting totally sick of this games attitude to its players now. It's like Devs see it as our duty to migrate & test HTML5 for their benefit, or are desperately trying to push those that still use flash for whatever reason to HTML5 cos the numbers of actual HTML5 players are not looking good. Not my problem. You fix HTML5's many issues cos I don't care. That's devs job & I have my own living to earn. I am here to chill by playing a game that's now becoming an ever-increasing PITA chore.

I will migrate to HTML5 if I want to when Flash version ends, not when Tanki tells me...stop trying to dictate crap to me. When flash version ends I will switch to HTML5 and judge this game as a new game. If it's any good then great. If it doesn't stack up then this game will go the same way as other games I've got rid of. In the meantime, I'm using Flash for nostalgia cos I know it's being discontinued. Ruin this for me as you currently are and I will not migrate to HTML5 Tanki, simple as that.

At least make the pop-ups removable in game settings or they automatically stop hassling me after 5 or so pop-ups.

2 Excellent ideas. treat html5 as a new game, one way of tackling it i suppose.  

At least make the pop-ups removable in game settings, i like it and easily done by the devs so no excuse not to do it.

Ok, I think this is the goodbye point for Tanki after 4+ years and DAILY gameplay.

This attitude of the punishment system towards players that use the flash client player is unacceptable. Punishment in the form of 5 seconds delay(*) and punishment in the form that you cannot-see-the-progress-of-your-missions in the game. (only in the new player).  So, you want to kick us old players out of the game, done, your wish is being processed.

Thank you for all the fascinating moments in the game, time to move on to a different, more user friendly game.

Adios muchachos

(*) Who are you, microsoft that punishes end users for not using original windows???

Flash ends this year - why are you not making the switch?

[Harry321 67]

Man i just played 15 minutes in HTML version, i get headache and was about to throw up . Anybody else felt the same ???

Because it makes me dizzy from the way the camera moves or the way the frames change ...even watching todays VLog had the same effect on me.

It is a long issue, it was reported long time ago, they cannot fix it and claim that "if you keep playing the new client, you get used to it".

Well what are you going to do when Flash is Totally gone by end of year.

I did not like HTML when it first came out.  But it has slowly been upgraded, and may not look as good as Flash did but it is certainly playable.  And I get a lot less errors than when I played Flash.  It was terrible.

Face it - if you don't plan on switching to HTML - why should TO care what you think?  It's a done deal and Flash will be gone. You either need to make the switch or quit.  It's as simple as that.

More players is better.

But if you refuse to play HTML and plan on quitting later anyway - then - I don't care.

You are missing the point here....

It is not that I don't like HTML as such, but I cannot play a game that makes me dizzy....and I am not the only one who feels dizzy with the HTML.

So as long as Tanki is using a program that makes me dizzy instead of relaxing me, no, I am not going to play it. End of the story.

I couldn't play the first HTML5 version because it made me feel sick, but the changes that were made after it was the most common complaint in the feedback thread have fixed that for me

(I'm only using Smoky though)

developers will not solve this major problem in HTML, because they can't, looks like its out of their hand. Thats why they keep saying ''you will get used to it''

I had similar issues when HTML first came out.

Either the upgrades have minimized that or I got used to it.  Might be a bit of both.

Guess you have to give it more time to adjust yourself, or - quit and find something else.

Tanki did some changes not long ago, have you tried it since your last post in the HTML 5 thread? 
If the dizziness is still there I suggest that you repost in What would make the HTML5 version awesome FOR YOU? and let them know that it is still a problem.

Gotta say he has a point, html5 is so gimmicky i find it hard to concentrate in battle, and i think i am at a very good standard were i can play to a high level. Using flash is just a lot easier on the senses you need to be able to compete at the level i am used to. I have tried html5 for most of this week and do find it hard to actually no what is going on around me, whereas in flash it is just way easier to actually play without any extra thinking as to where the enemy are, where my teammates are etc . All in all a far better experience when in battle.
