Mission changes

[Marcus 17,295]

 

 

Hello, tankers!

With tomorrow's server restart at 02:00 UTC on October 1st one more change will be released!

 

Starting from tomorrow, we are decreasing requirements for weekly missions. Instead of completing 10 or 20 daily missions, you will only need to complete 8 or 15.

 

It will be easier to complete weekly missions but daily missions will also be changed:

 

1. Mission tasks for daily and weekly missions where you need to earn crystals in battles will be doubled. For example, if you have a mission to earn 500 crystals in battles, tomorrow this mission will be to earn 1000 crystals in battles.
   You remember we doubled battle funds at the beginning of the summer? That’s why we should double these mission tasks to keep everything in balance.
    

2. Mission requirements will be the same for all ranks, except for missions where you need to get XX crystals or do XX damage.

 

IMPORTANT

If you have any completed missions to get XX crystals and still haven’t claimed the rewards for them, we recommend you do so now. Otherwise, you will have to get more crystals to claim the rewards for these missions.

 

Enter the game, claim rewards for your current missions and start completing new ones!

I guess that's fair enough. You get 21 missions a week, so doing 15 of them means just completing all tier 1 and tier 2 missions plus one from tier 3. Alternatively, you could, for example, complete all easy missions on the day you get them, but then stretch 5 medium missions over 7 days (i.e. complete 2 of them over the course of 2 days each), and 3 hard missions with 2-3 days to complere each one.

A little bit harder overall, but I suppose it puts less pressure on you if you have one or two days in the week where there's just no time to do missions at all.

[iWillHealYou 220]

So play double the amount of time to get the same rewards? Just because you doubled the crystals? Wait... didn't you quadruplet the experience a well? Noice!

[YaMaM-SpecialUnit 54]

Its  are agood for me and for the game.

[RaKaZa 104]

so the rewards will also be bigger?

Communication with tanki is like a puzzle, find the pieces spread across here and there and then put them together and then you get a better picture. With one day warning this is going to be a mess in the chat and the forum.

To summarize
1/ This challenge needs 3000 stars to be completed - This does not mean the next would be the same.
2/ One daily mission will be giving you ~50 stars - with 15 days (for this challenge) - 3 missions per day = 3*15*50 = 2250 stars => so more than 2 third of the challenges can be done by doing only 3 daily missions for 15 days
3/ One weekly mission ~150 stars - 3 per week (with the top one requiring 15 daily missions/week) = 2*38150 = 900 stars = about one third of the challenges can be done with 2 weeks of weekly missions (equal to 30 daily missions). => total is 3150 stars. 

If you miss some days (and daily missions) you will never be able to recovers the missing stars as the bulk is actually given by the daily missions. And if the stars rewards system per battle remains the same (no confirmation or denial) you will never be able to recover the loss by playing only on weekends.

Unless you can do 2-3 daily missions don't attempt this challenges.

Good things is that what I like it better this way, so it would do it this time and then buy the battle pass a fews days before the end (or upon completion). The next challenges might be more difficult (more stars, less per missions, who knows), so this is the right time.

If you do 2 missions per day for 15 days that's 1600 and 6 weekly mission that is 600 => 2500 stars you still need to earn 500 stars playing normally or 250 if you have premium.
You need to do a minimum of 40 daily missions in 15 days and get 100 stars. However you can complete more steps with this new system and playing less.

I have completed and claimed all the crystals for my XX missions. Other supplies missions have been claimed. Will the decrease of mission requirements also decrease the number of standard and weekly containers we earn daily and weekly?

I hope that me and other players are not going to be disappointed with less containers. In a matter of fact, players should now earn more standard containers due to the increased difficulty level, and keep the same amount of standard containers earned weekly.

But a challenge lasts only 15 days right? Why are you considering the 16th day?

typos, corrected

Wow! Thanks Marcus! Tanki is really giving it's best updates these last few weeks! It is really good!  I am extremely happy! Let us hope more players get online to take advantage of these great, new updates.

@Viking4s, see, i correctly guessed the reason for the crystal missions change -

That is not the problem, the problem is the crystals / xp ratio - they are just correcting a mistake on their part (or worse they new it to sweeten the medecine) - it was only a small gain for us.

[SporkZilla 1,775]

This could be better on balance, only 8 missions to do per week (and I often avoid crystal missions anyway) and earning a lot more stars

(rarely getting beyond tier 3 of challenges at the moment)

Once again, tanki deliberately skewed that ratio in favour of xp. I do not believe they will change that. I am just glad that a hard type of mission is hard once again. As it should have been... that is all.

Once again, more work for the same rewards is not better. It is no problem for a legend rank, that is why you fail to see the real issue here. It is a rather small issue TBH, but it highlights the overall way of doing things from TO.
Also, changing the mechanics every often is not good. Players need stability to feel comfortable.
Feel free to linger your thoughts on that.

Which is why i'm not doing this challenge either.

Hey Marcus I have a question. Currently I have a weekly mission like this: Complete Daily Mission 19/20. I currently have no Daily Missions. After the update will I just get my reward (3 Weekly Conts and 1 Regular cont), or do I have to complete one more mission to get my reward?

[Cabos 212]

I have another question. How many stars do you get per daily/weekly mission??

[tankiexpert1 105]

No offense, tanki, but thank you for finally listening to tanker's comments and requests.  Keep it up!   

[Noghtfly 114]

And when will you remove the 15x top 3 week mission? Everybody hates it, and it's not a personal but semi team mission. 

[fghjkl54 1,517]

guys i have completed 7 weekly missions will it be 0 tomorow?

Thanks Tanki for listening to players comments. Please keep up the good work.

[wolverine848 13,097]

How about getting rid of the 1st weekly mission for top-3 x15?

Or at least make it top-2 (any team) x15...

[MetalRaze 21]

Next best update idea: Reduce the amount of stars or steps to get the two free paints in the challenges.

[RIDDLER_8 5,552]

@wolverine848

No. Don't get rid of the 1st weekly mission. That is a bad idea. I prefer your second option but make it in the top 3 places in any team 15x.

@MetalRaze

The amount of stars could be reduced to 2000 stars or increase the number of stars earned in daily and weekly missions, plus stars earned in matchmaking battles.

[abcdezyxwv 0]

i have 17/20 weekly missions completed, what will gonna happen?

[lssimo 1,559]

I don't like the update.

After not playing during northern summer until now, yeah until now, I feel like I can play again... and I was just getting used to the idea of not playing MM again.

I know, I should be happy that, because of me not playing, I can now play Mk2s with my Mk6s.

And then I remember the 4X exp.

Mixed feelings.

I do like the update.
