declined Idea for Experiment #3

[yellowghetto 3,206]

Have an experiment where there are TWO MM Systems. One is like the one we have now. The other is where no one is allowed to use Drones. Seems much more fair and would be interesting to see which MM is played more.

Declined 

The main point of those experiments is to eventually implement changes to the game. The developers will never remove drones from the game, which is why the idea is declined.

The main point of the experiment is that the developers have some ideas in their mind and they want to test it.. so no need of ideas to test, like if you have a question you need one answer...

Btw, the test's result of disabling drones, is really known. The playerbase will increase, the game will be more balanced, the game will flourish again, but I think developers is vision isn't that far.

But what do you think, what will happen to player who upgraded their drones for millions of crystals? Drones shouldn't be removed cempletely, but maybe they need a full revamp.

Still their problem.. Again, how can I promote the game to another one by saying those things... the game is imbalanced but the developers couldn't change this things as it happens? for sure no one would like to care about this excuse.. like if you trying to give yourself excuses to delay doing your homework? ok either you gave yourself milions of excuses you still will failure last the year, even if those were a real excuses and you couldn't even do the homework still you failure at the end... and surprisingly tanki has no regret of this update to start giving excuses

As much as I would love drones to be removed, please don't give the developers the idea to do a game-wide experiment every month.

But if the two MM systems were to happen, I hope Tanki has enough people playing so the matchmaking wait times won't be too long.

The idea of drones is not as much to make people like them, as it is to make people spend and buy batteries

sadly that's the truth.

 

New idea for an experiment: Don't

Agreed, but wouldn't it be a better idea to do these "tests" on Tanki Test, or somewhere where it doesn't affect our normal Tanki gameplay? The Mad Tanks Event really, really sucked, I suggest they never do it again. But for this 16v16 large map event, though I am curious to see what it'll be like, they should not make it effect the actual game. Instead, do it somewhere else so that us players can enjoy the regular game.

The problem with the test server is because not enough people can use it to provide useful results for an experiment like this, and everyone also plays differently due to the lack of consequence for being careless with their actions. Everyone runs around with 9999 GS and uses supplies non-stop, but that's not the case on normal servers. Global changes like that need to be tested on live servers to be useful.

They should probably make these experiments as special game modes, like the Hopper/Railgun mode that was done like around 2 months ago.

If you wanna participate in the experiment, join the game mode. If not, just play regular matchmaking.
