yes but not 2,3,4 times or more in a game  and always right before the coward is about to die.

The real crime are the devs manipulating TO whenever they feel like it (and calling it balance, whatever) to further con you out of cash.

The bigger crime are the clowns that fall for it every time. 

So that we are on the same page - I only spent imaginary crystals that I earned in play, so there was no real money exchanged - I am not a buyer. However the only real cost though is the time I spend to earn those crystals...

Yes the time cost is much greater.

Sorry for using this forum to ask this question, but I just played a game with a tank that had just the one protection called Spectrum B. I couldn't find any information on that in the shop or in wiki. What is it? The amount of special upgrades are devastating for the entire game. I sometimes feel as if I'd be playing third league football with premier league players against me. Not fair.

https://en.tankiwiki.com/Modules     Spectrum B — 20% — owners of Bronze, Impulse, Gladiator, Acid, Star or Helper paint

Just leave when you see that. One battle, 10 versus 10, my team got 2 players with 4 protection modules. Enemy, 3 players and 2 players with Spectrum B. Instant "run".

As I said - this happens... once in a blue moon.

If you think it's worth spending energy and time fighting, go for it.

"The "Spectrum Modules" are special, incredibly hard-to-obtain modules that protect from every turret and mines, including regular and critical shots."

i do think it's worth my time and energy you cowards are not playing within the spirit of the rules.

Are you posting about the players that use spectrum modules, paladin, hornet/freeze combo, flying hack etc. If so I totally agree that they are low life cowards that can't do jack without these legal hacks blighting the game. Lets all remember though that the devs do their best to keep the game balanced.....................for the buyers. Conclusion, if you see these clowns in battle.....ta, ta, exit.

@wolverine848

  Technical difficulties  i didn't mean  to post the same sentence twice. i have played this game for years and I rarely ever leave a game  even beck in the day when it was common to be playing 10 vs 1  and i  got beat over and over again for years on end on a  rare occasion  i beat  5 players vs 1me. i am mabey an average player  at best. without saying too much my style of play draws me in to these cowards that reboot .5 seconds before death and i have no respect for them. I'm not as stressed about this as you might think i just want to be heard and  have this  hack mitigated  so it cannot be done,  or cowards should get punished automatic escalating bans until they  wise up or are banned outright.

   YOU should go  down the wormhole of  technical support.  They will ask you for screen shots as proof if you don't have them  you maybe S.O.L.  So if you do get their attention  be polite be persistent and reply quickly as the people that can do things are in Russia.

TECHNICALLY and LEGALLY it's not hacking, unlike the OP updates the devs bring in to make cash that have either, no way of combating them in battle, are have mechanics that defy all logic just to benefit the buyers. Refreshing in the middle of a battle is not cheating and does not give that player or his team any advantage, unlike the aforementioned legal hacks I have mentioned. You have a nice day and hope you come out the other side of that wormhole soon. (never gonna happen I'm afraid)

[LEROYLEMMING 51]

@VIC2000

no not at all i was talking about cowards that reboot the game  0.5 seconds before they die and  rejoin the game with full score mines and untarnished kill ratio. im  triing to get  get that cowardly behavior banned.   

what you are takling about is futile there will aways be some sort of game imbalace  of one sort or another. The spectrum modules were given to players who won a turnament if i remember correctly. Save your cry and buy what pisses you off the most  until you own everything.  or turn off the computer and become a lawyer, tradesmen  or doctor   for the same amount of hours.

[Bowser448 321]

As many of you on the complaint book probably know, tanki has really been going downhill over the past few years due to the developers. So I have decided to make a long list of complaints about this game. This list is an assortment of big picture complaints and minor issues. I have decided to make a table of contents and divided up my complaints based off of specific topics. There are a total of 217 complaints so I made a table of contents and divided them by section and credited some other players for their work in helping me create this long list as 217 is a lot for one player alone to make.

Table of Contents

1. Matchmaking (1-28)
2. Pro Battles (29-43)
3. Shop and Financial Issues (44-51)
4. Rigged Features of the Game (52-59)
5. Lobby Chat (60-66)
6. Moderation (67-82)
7. Bugs, Glitches, and Exploits (83-92)
8. Abusive Players and Violators [Hackers and Saboteurs] (93-109)
9. Corruption by the Developers [Hypocrisy and Lies] (110-128)
10. Game Mechanics that make the Game Unbalanced (129-175)
11. Developers Wasting Time (176-187)
12. Other (188-217)

 

Complaints

Spoiler

 

1.  (1) MM is too unbalanced
2.  The MM system is full of battles with battle results, in terms of winning and losing, determined before the battle even begins
3.  MM is rigged
4.  MM hacking and multing is ignore by ALL moderators

6.  MM lags a lot
7.  When you join MM, you are always put on a team that is getting their rear ends beaten about 5 minutes in the battle
8.  Dusseldorf and Berlin are unusable. They are too big for MM and usually cause the most lag
9.  Highways and Stadium are unplayable for MM. Only shafts and railguns win
10.  Magistral is unplayable because it is boring and I am always put on this map
11.  Chernobyl and Yorkshire and unusable. There are too many obstacles and navigating those maps can be very annoying
12.  Tanki programs mult-bots in to battles when the team that is suppose to lose is actually winning
13.  The game still freezes (occasionally crashes) after the battle ends
14.  The vote option doesn't work in MM
15.  Players like to break chat rules in MM because they know the moderators won't check it
16. Player like to target one player who is the lowest rank outside of TDM and ASL
17. Players care too much about troll and bullying
18. The goldbox drop rate is too low
19. Drones make the game very unbalanced
20. Crisis drone is an automatic win
21. Miner drone is an automatic win
22. Most players don't like half of the MM maps. Maybe a monthly poll would resolve this?

26. If you score a goal in rugby, you don't always get the point
27. You sometimes drop a flag right in front of the target and don't get the point
28. The defending team has an unfair advantage in assault
29. (2) Xp/bp battles don't give you crystals anymore
30. There are too many self destruction zones in parkour
31. When I play silence parkour, there are a ton of 9999 GS players that fight and kill everyone and some for no reason
32. Not to mention that most of those from the previous complaint are hacking
33. Mines in those battles create too much lag
34. Most of those players from the past few complaints also get a sick thrill out of bullying and trolling
35. Same players from previous complaint encourage multing/sabotage
36. Most people only play on the same three maps. I like most of the other pro-battle maps but no one joins.
37. Make the max score and time lower. Capturing 1000 flags is almost impossible and battle that last over 16 hours are not great either
38.  There players that show in battles and are not actually there. This glitch still exists
39. The game freezes or crashes after pro-battles too
40. Maps sometimes crash and you lose all your points
41. Polygon is the only map CP is played on

43. Seldom do gold boxes drop in pro-battles
44. (3) Tanki is pay to win
45. Tanki encourages terrible buying habits. Kids try to steal their mom's credit card just to buy.
46. The shop prices are too expensive. Who is willing to spend 300 dollars on a skin container?
47. Tanki won't stop the inflation.
48. Kits can almost never be bought with crystals
49. The shop sometimes doesn't make your purchase go through properly and you don't receive what you bought. This didn't happen to me but rather one of my friends experienced this. He emailed tanki and they refused to do what was right. My friend quit the game and protested the game.
50. Buying mk7 kits at the Lieutenant Colonel rank just allows players to have a 9999 GS at Lieutenant Colonel
51. Tanki offers kits with equipment you already have
52. (4) Tanki lies about the ultra container chances. It is the same as the standard container
53. Tanki only gives exotic drops to buyers
54. Crisis drone is only awarded to buyers
55. Containers caught in battle award exotic drops to youtubers and common to free to play users

58. Buyers are allowed to hack
59. Buyers are allowed to sabotage
60. (5) Moderators only accept hacking and multing reports from buyers
61. Moderators ban free to play players for no reason occasionally. I know this is a fact because this has happened to me before and I seriously said nothing and I was banned for a month for provocation
62. Tanki hired mometasone and Legendary_Bandit just to sit on game reports and harass anyone who posts a complaint or makes a report. They never make any reports and they also never get banned for doing this. They commonly flood the chat with "muahahaha!" and call everyone one of my alternate accounts.
63. I make reports on the game reports channel and the moderators never forward them to battle moderators
64. The chat moderators allow players to bully me without getting banned
65. The chat moderators themselves bully me

74. They also refuse toxicity reports
75. They also refuse to accept reports about player who are trying to trade and sell accounts
76. The esports chat is useless
77. The announcements chat is also useless
78. Too many players post fake battle links to events on the events channel
79. Only players that use auto clickers get into the events
80. Too many players flood the general chat in Hebrew. I am not trying to be racist, but tanki should make their own community for them. I mean we don't see any Russians on the English general chat.
81. There are too many players that use General and Game Reports to bully other players
82. Same players from the previous complaint never get banned either
83. (7) The bug that causes players to lose their containers hasn't been patched yet
84. The shaft bug that forces you to move in a direction after sniping with shaft still exists
85. On mobile, you sometimes fall through the floor
86. Mashing tab too much can crash the game
87. Leaving battles sometimes crashes the game
88. Opening weekly containers can soft lock the game
89. If you open a weekly container opening screen and try to open a different container, you will be unable to open it
90. If you press a key 20 times, you will be banned for flooding and all your previous messages will be erased.
91. Players use the exploit mentioned above to break rules and get themselves banned for flooding so the moderators don't ban them longer than an hour
92. You can still scale-climb walls with hopper in space mode
93. (8) Players are very rude, toxic, and provocative in battle. Moderators won't ban them.
94. The solution to these types of players is hide their messages while they still publicly humiliate you
95. The vote option never works
96. Players make accounts with inappropriate usernames and send them to other users as friend requests. An example of one I have received before can be found here -----------> Profile — Bowser448_KillUrself (tankionline.com)
97. Players use the Duel map to not only 1v1 players rather the also use it to do account business (buying, selling, trading, etc)
98. Players always tell other users to "cry" and call them a baby
99. Players go out of their way to target players over doing the objective of the battle
100. Players play with the emotions of other players by hacking then telling them to cry
101. Players make bait battles to lure a player out of battle just to take their spot
102. Reports of abusive player in battle are not accepted by the chat moderators on game reports
103. Screen shots of abusive players through badges and private messages are rejected too
104. Whenever and ignore user chats, you see "This message is hidden" as we would rather not see anything from this user
105. The players on General are toxic and seldom do the moderators ban them
106. There are hackers everywhere and you always encounter them. They are inevitable.

112. There is no anti-mult system
113. The is also no anti-sabotage system
114. Players track down users in pro-battles then hack just to bother a disliked user or join and sabotage on the team of the disliked user
115. Silence Parkour legends hack 24/7 nonstop and tanki makes no effort to ban them
116. Tanki puts hackers on the same team as the buyers
117. Tanki knows what players hack and the don't ban most of them
118. Tanki pays players to hack just to give the non-buyers an unenjoyable gaming experience
119. Tanki says they listen to the players yet they frequently release updates that the players didn't even ask for or showing no signs of interest
120. Tanki says their reason for HD skins is to make the game look more advanced yet they remove the skins that represented whay modification level the turret was because they didn't want to deal with every skin for every update
121. Tanki says they try their hardest to make the game balanced. Try playing one battle in the matchmaking system to see my point
122. Tanki says they want buyers and non-buyers to have the same experience
123. Tanki created tankoins to give the non-buyers and buyers a fair chance. That's a lie
124. Tanki says the ultra container chances are better. That's a lie intended for more people to buy ultra containers
125. Tanki says the care about the developers yet they usually release random updates no one wants
126. Tanki says their stuff is reasonably priced. That's a lie! Who is spending 300 dollars on a skin container?
127. Tanki says all players are treated equally. That's a lie! Buyers are obviously treated better and tanki is doing a terrible job covering it
128. Chat moderators say all hacking reports are forwarded to battle moderators. That's a lie! Almost none actually are
129. (10) Heat and gold resistance are useless other than the make your GS 300 points higher

132. Jammer is just pointless

176. (11) Tanki is wasting time by releasing new HD skins

216. People do account business from sources other than through feature of tanki online. This includes Discord, Snap Chat, Tik Tok
217. Tanki needs to start listening to what the players have to say and what they are currently doing is not working. If tanki continues to mess around and not listen to the other player, tanki will be dead in 2022 and the tanki employees will need to look for new jobs. Tanki instead assumes they are always right and they are perfect which is the tragic flaw of the developers and their greed doesn't help either

Crediting other users

Tanki has a lot of issues and my list of complaints needed assistance from some of my personal friends and other users of this game. I asked everyone who helped me if they wanted to have their account name credited and all the users mention were okay with it. 

This list of complaints would not have been possible without ELECTR0_DRAG0N, Inkling_Boy, Brandorrrr, and 2 other concealed users.

Jeez, and I thought I wrote text walls....

Though as a point of critique as a part of the writer in me, I'd definitely appreciate some insight as to why you feel the way you do about these complaints. Some, if not most, of your complaints just go [equipment item/feature/noun] is too [OP/expensive/pointless/unfair/negative adjective] without any justification. 

Anyways, to write a complaint to antipurge the comment (and provide an example), uh, I'm also not a huge fan of 15 minute MM battles - I feel like MM hit the sweet spot with 10 minutes. I feel like the shorter battles were always a bit too short and didn't allow me to warm up to my full potential, and the long battles just feel like there's a little bit too much time/effort to be put in them and I don't like putting effort.

I see there are a contradictions, like you are getting annoyed by chat bands, then you complain that moderators don't ban players who troll or insult in chats. + Some of what you said is only applied to pro-battles like Cyclone for Striker, it's only OP in Parkour battles, but in MM it's can't be more than useless. I don't remember that I have seen a hack in HTML5 , and just too rare for me to see a mult in battles. + The criticizing for shop prices is almostly only a buyer's concern. For me as a non-buyer player, I don't buy a thing even if it was with 1$. And some of what you said have been discussed a lot in forum and is probable for more than one opinion, like protections against Thunder, basically it's player's choice and does have nothing to do with game balance. + Using alot "too OP" gives it no value, Plasma torch is too OP?

Its very hard for many players make this missions and its worst  if you got this mission for 10 times.
I hope this change could makehappier lots of people.
Thank you.

I have been away from the game for over 2 years and now I came back to check on things and I see that nothing has changed and everything has gotten worse! Yet ignorant people pau good money to buy stuff and then complain when Tanki nerfs everything and now they have to buy even more.  I was going to write about this very topic that you mentioned since it is unfair to have this kind of weekly mission that we cannot change and worse yet, we do not not eve have a chance of completing it!  I have several accounts below the Legend rank and I have 2 Weekly missions of Get 15 Top 3 and get 10 top 3 which I will never be able to complete as I am placed in battles against Legends and Buyers and I do not have any chance of getting anywhere near the top! Worse get I am getting dumped in battles that finish withing a few minutes of me entering so sometimes I have tough time completing the Daily missions let alone the Weekly.  This was a problem 2 years a go and many players had complained but the idiots at Tanki still insist on keeping it there!  We should be able to change the weekly missions but the dumb game designers hope they will entice us to become buyers! well, stupidity has no end in the Tanki organization!

Most of the hacking is done by the devs to generate cash ie: Paladin, Flying hack, Hornets overdrive to name but 3 of the huge amount of OP crap and unwarranted updates they have introduced into the game, all to make cash with no thought at all given to balance. The devs have ruined TO beyond repair and it will only get worse.

As many of you on the complaint book probably know, tanki has really been going downhill over the past few years due to the developers. So I have decided to make a long list of complaints about this game. This list is an assortment of big picture complaints and minor issues. I have decided to make a table of contents and divided up my complaints based off of specific topics. There are a total of 217 complaints so I made a table of contents and divided them by section and credited some other players for their work in helping me create this long list as 217 is a lot for one player alone to make.

Table of Contents

1. Matchmaking (1-28)
2. Pro Battles (29-43)
3. Shop and Financial Issues (44-51)
4. Rigged Features of the Game (52-59)
5. Lobby Chat (60-66)
6. Moderation (67-82)
7. Bugs, Glitches, and Exploits (83-92)
8. Abusive Players and Violators [Hackers and Saboteurs] (93-109)
9. Corruption by the Developers [Hypocrisy and Lies] (110-128)
10. Game Mechanics that make the Game Unbalanced (129-175)
11. Developers Wasting Time (176-187)
12. Other (188-217)

Complaints

1.  (1) MM is too unbalanced
2.  The MM system is full of battles with battle results, in terms of winning and losing, determined before the battle even begins
3.  MM is rigged
4.  MM hacking and multing is ignore by ALL moderators
5.  15 minute battles are too long. Many players enjoyed 10 minute battles
6.  MM lags a lot
7.  When you join MM, you are always put on a team that is getting their rear ends beaten about 5 minutes in the battle
8.  Dusseldorf and Berlin are unusable. They are too big for MM and usually cause the most lag
9.  Highways and Stadium are unplayable for MM. Only shafts and railguns win
10.  Magistral is unplayable because it is boring and I am always put on this map
11.  Chernobyl and Yorkshire and unusable. There are too many obstacles and navigating those maps can be very annoying
12.  Tanki programs mult-bots in to battles when the team that is suppose to lose is actually winning
13.  The game still freezes (occasionally crashes) after the battle ends
14.  The vote option doesn't work in MM
15.  Players like to break chat rules in MM because they know the moderators won't check it
16. Player like to target one player who is the lowest rank outside of TDM and ASL
17. Players care too much about troll and bullying
18. The goldbox drop rate is too low
19. Drones make the game very unbalanced
20. Crisis drone is an automatic win
21. Miner drone is an automatic win
22. Most players don't like half of the MM maps. Maybe a monthly poll would resolve this?
23. Only vikings and dictators win in TJR mode

26. If you score a goal in rugby, you don't always get the point
27. You sometimes drop a flag right in front of the target and don't get the point
28. The defending team has an unfair advantage in assault
29. (2) Xp/bp battles don't give you crystals anymore
30. There are too many self destruction zones in parkour
31. When I play silence parkour, there are a ton of 9999 GS players that fight and kill everyone and some for no reason
32. Not to mention that most of those from the previous complaint are hacking
33. Mines in those battles create too much lag
34. Most of those players from the past few complaints also get a sick thrill out of bullying and trolling
35. Same players from previous complaint encourage multing/sabotage
36. Most people only play on the same three maps. I like most of the other pro-battle maps but no one joins.
37. Make the max score and time lower. Capturing 1000 flags is almost impossible and battle that last over 16 hours are not great either
38.  There players that show in battles and are not actually there. This glitch still exists
39. The game freezes or crashes after pro-battles too
40. Maps sometimes crash and you lose all your points
41. Polygon is the only map CP is played on
42. There are never any battles for rugby, seige, assault, or TJR in pro battles
43. Seldom do gold boxes drop in pro-battles
44. (3) Tanki is pay to win
45. Tanki encourages terrible buying habits. Kids try to steal their mom's credit card just to buy.
46. The shop prices are too expensive. Who is willing to spend 300 dollars on a skin container?
47. Tanki won't stop the inflation.
48. Kits can almost never be bought with crystals
49. The shop sometimes doesn't make your purchase go through properly and you don't receive what you bought. This didn't happen to me but rather one of my friends experienced this. He emailed tanki and they refused to do what was right. My friend quit the game and protested the game.
50. Buying mk7 kits at the Lieutenant Colonel rank just allows players to have a 9999 GS at Lieutenant Colonel
51. Tanki offers kits with equipment you already have
52. (4) Tanki lies about the ultra container chances. It is the same as the standard container
53. Tanki only gives exotic drops to buyers
54. Crisis drone is only awarded to buyers
55. Containers caught in battle award exotic drops to youtubers and common to free to play users

58. Buyers are allowed to hack
59. Buyers are allowed to sabotage
60. (5) Moderators only accept hacking and multing reports from buyers
61. Moderators ban free to play players for no reason occasionally. I know this is a fact because this has happened to me before and I seriously said nothing and I was banned for a month for provocation
62. Tanki hired mometasone and Legendary_Bandit just to sit on game reports and harass anyone who posts a complaint or makes a report. They never make any reports and they also never get banned for doing this. They commonly flood the chat with "muahahaha!" and call everyone one of my alternate accounts.
63. I make reports on the game reports channel and the moderators never forward them to battle moderators
64. The chat moderators allow players to bully me without getting banned
65. The chat moderators themselves bully me

74. They also refuse toxicity reports
75. They also refuse to accept reports about player who are trying to trade and sell accounts
76. The esports chat is useless
77. The announcements chat is also useless
78. Too many players post fake battle links to events on the events channel
79. Only players that use auto clickers get into the events
80. Too many players flood the general chat in Hebrew. I am not trying to be racist, but tanki should make their own community for them. I mean we don't see any Russians on the English general chat.
81. There are too many players that use General and Game Reports to bully other players
82. Same players from the previous complaint never get banned either
83. (7) The bug that causes players to lose their containers hasn't been patched yet

85. On mobile, you sometimes fall through the floor
86. Mashing tab too much can crash the game
87. Leaving battles sometimes crashes the game
88. Opening weekly containers can soft lock the game
89. If you open a weekly container opening screen and try to open a different container, you will be unable to open it
90. If you press a key 20 times, you will be banned for flooding and all your previous messages will be erased.
91. Players use the exploit mentioned above to break rules and get themselves banned for flooding so the moderators don't ban them longer than an hour
92. You can still scale-climb walls with hopper in space mode
93. (8) Players are very rude, toxic, and provocative in battle. Moderators won't ban them.
94. The solution to these types of players is hide their messages while they still publicly humiliate you
95. The vote option never works
96. Players make accounts with inappropriate usernames and send them to other users as friend requests. An example of one I have received before can be found here -----------> Profile — Bowser448_KillUrself (tankionline.com)
97. Players use the Duel map to not only 1v1 players rather the also use it to do account business (buying, selling, trading, etc)
98. Players always tell other users to "cry" and call them a baby
99. Players go out of their way to target players over doing the objective of the battle
100. Players play with the emotions of other players by hacking then telling them to cry
101. Players make bait battles to lure a player out of battle just to take their spot
102. Reports of abusive player in battle are not accepted by the chat moderators on game reports
103. Screen shots of abusive players through badges and private messages are rejected too
104. Whenever and ignore user chats, you see "This message is hidden" as we would rather not see anything from this user
105. The players on General are toxic and seldom do the moderators ban them
106. There are hackers everywhere and you always encounter them. They are inevitable.
107. It is near impossible to get a hacker banned
108. Players use lag as an excuse
109. People like to use hacks to deal critical damage every shot and say that it is luck
110. (9) Moderators on game reports almost never forward reports to battle moderators

112. There is no anti-mult system
113. The is also no anti-sabotage system
114. Players track down users in pro-battles then hack just to bother a disliked user or join and sabotage on the team of the disliked user
115. Silence Parkour legends hack 24/7 nonstop and tanki makes no effort to ban them
116. Tanki puts hackers on the same team as the buyers
117. Tanki knows what players hack and the don't ban most of them
118. Tanki pays players to hack just to give the non-buyers an unenjoyable gaming experience
119. Tanki says they listen to the players yet they frequently release updates that the players didn't even ask for or showing no signs of interest
120. Tanki says their reason for HD skins is to make the game look more advanced yet they remove the skins that represented whay modification level the turret was because they didn't want to deal with every skin for every update
121. Tanki says they try their hardest to make the game balanced. Try playing one battle in the matchmaking system to see my point
122. Tanki says they want buyers and non-buyers to have the same experience
123. Tanki created tankoins to give the non-buyers and buyers a fair chance. That's a lie
124. Tanki says the ultra container chances are better. That's a lie intended for more people to buy ultra containers
125. Tanki says the care about the developers yet they usually release random updates no one wants
126. Tanki says their stuff is reasonably priced. That's a lie! Who is spending 300 dollars on a skin container?
127. Tanki says all players are treated equally. That's a lie! Buyers are obviously treated better and tanki is doing a terrible job covering it
128. Chat moderators say all hacking reports are forwarded to battle moderators. That's a lie! Almost none actually are
129. (10) Heat and gold resistance are useless other than the make your GS 300 points higher

216. People do account business from sources other than through feature of tanki online. This includes Discord, Snap Chat, Tik Tok
217. Tanki needs to start listening to what the players have to say and what they are currently doing is not working. If tanki continues to mess around and not listen to the other player, tanki will be dead in 2022 and the tanki employees will need to look for new jobs. Tanki instead assumes they are always right and they are perfect which is the tragic flaw of the developers and their greed doesn't help either

Crediting other users

Tanki has a lot of issues and my list of complaints needed assistance from some of my personal friends and other users of this game. I asked everyone who helped me if they wanted to have their account name credited and all the users mention were okay with it. 

This list of complaints would not have been possible without ELECTR0_DRAG0N, Inkling_Boy, Brandorrrr, and 2 other concealed users.

I admire you courage to write all these issues! However, as an pre-MM player, I can tell you it good that you documented all the issues but you just wasted your time since Tanki will do nothing about it. Like I said in ohter posts, I stayed away form Tanki from about 4 months after they implemented this joke of MatchMaking until now and I came back only to see that things have gotten worse!  Yet there are some poor soulds that are so ignorant and willing to part with their money only to complain that later on their "investment" is not worth the price they paid since Tanki chnaged it and made it weaker!  Only if the fools had read the comments in the complaint section! But hey, as long as there are suckers willingn to part with their money, Tanki will be happy to take it from them.

LOL I remembered before some months there was a buyer who complain about the sudden nerf to EMP Gauss that made it deals no splash-damage. And his strongest argument was that he paid with real money $. We argued with him alot.  BTW, after some weeks I saw him complaining about Hopper being annoying in XP/BP and they have to nerf it. I said ooh this is my opportunity to test him, I poped up directly against him and I said Hopper came through UCs first and there are who invested alot through ultra containers on it (I was generating controversy), he directly came against me and said this is the developers fault, and players don't have to bear their fault, they're who made this wrong hull. (contradiction)

This was one of their most unwanted updates EVER. Again to generate cash. The devs said it was to make it easier for newbies to understand...lies of course.

Agree.

That's because they dare not tackle the direct question because they no they will either A- Have to lie about it, are B- make up some claptrap to justify it.

Unfortunately it is "WORKING" because the buyers still buy and fall for every con the devs tell them, it's worse for F2P who are just bystanders in most battles and dont even have the luxury of being conned out of their cash, that's because they have none to start with (blessing really)

@Bowser448 Nice effort by the way even though some of your complaints do not really stack up under scrutiny, still I enjoyed catching up on a lot of the devious crap the devs inflict on it's player base, P2W and F2P alike.

TO is trash, has been for a long time and will only get MUCH worse.
