Mean while, thank you TO for this bloody balance MM experience.

 

The last 9999 GS guy joined in last minute. And it is already 1-6 by that time. So for the most part, we are 1 man short, having a bunch of low GS dudes and a damn camper who never leave the base. While the other team is full of 9k GS guy, and half of them are using 50% Vulcan protection, making me essentially deal 50% less damage. Thanks TO for this bloody experience. Really appreciated.

They cannot improve matchmaking because they do not have enough players at each rank to make a TRUE matchmaking.  If they reduced the number of ranks in a battle, we will be waiting forever to find a battle! 

And my solution, (which would combat this problem greatly) to increase the XP needed to gain each rank by a factor of X3 was ignored by the developers, no surprise really, they NEVER act on GENUINE player feedback that actually HELPS players.

Well, they do act on player feedback that helps themselves.

Matchmaking in other modes is fine (most of the time), so I'm wondering why lower ranks aren't playing the event mode?

Because there simply aren’t enough players at those ranks.

Many people predicted this would happen in the last few years, and it seems that it is finally happening.

It seems current world events which I will not name may be the final nail in the coffin for TO.

I would gladly wait longer for a battle to have a better quality of gameplay. Too much of the time the battles are unbalanced so that it is a lopsided victory that 19/20 times I am on the losing side of. If the devs spent more time fixing matchmaking than making pretty new boxes the game would be much better.

That is the point man. This is what the gameplay is like EVERY. DAMN. TIME.

Ironically as soon as I made that post I went in and played a Jug match and the same situation occurred. The devs MUST address this. I am sick of the VLOG covering details that doesn't matter. FIX THE GAMEPLAY. Address the elephant in the room that they have screwed up the game and how they are going to fix it.

I was in a parkour battle with other people minding my own business and next moment two people joined the opposite team and started killing my whole team for no reason. I asked them to stop and I voted them both. They left right before a mod showed up just like a time before that with other people. They seem to have a mod detector or something. I got banned for false claims. You don't even let me speak to your freaking spectator to tell them what happened. I miss the old tanki. It was a part of my childhood and it hurts to see what it has become. Also, why do you always have the automated messages in RUSSIAN? There is a language selection for a reason. I cant even copy paste into a translator.

Players no longer use public parkour battles for parkour but to chill out with friends, some players have their own "parkour battles" which is probably what you have seen. If I am not mistaken, it is not a bannable offense. If you want to parkour without players' interruption, please create your own private parkour battle and invite your friends. In case you believe you got banned unfarly for false claims, contact our Battle Administrator, @Yele, via Forum PM.

Here is an easy trick; you can use Yandex Translate - all you have to do is to take a screenshot of the message you want to translate the site will do it for you.

It's not a bannable to fight others or fill the map with mines. I remember before a years I was entering parkour and flip my teammates, they threat me by ./vote, and all of what happen when a moderator come, just kick me out of the battle, I refresh the page then re-join.  + It's first time to know there is a banned for false claims, but seems yes if they wasn't hacking (at least auto clicker for mines).  And the automated message being sent in russian that depend on the player's language. If the player who got the banned used russian, then the message that will be automatically sent will be russian, and all of the players will see it as russian because it's just a message.

When it is his turn to be the Jug, he only shot at those who is not jug. (the jug in our team named [edited] is doing the same, which means that the two jug just ignore each other and they are not fighting each other)

How is this "disgusting"?  It's a strategy that can help your team win.

I've often been JUG and never attacked the other JUG. 

If the other JUG is dumb enough to come over to my side, sure I'll take shots at him.  But he is likely to die under fire from a JUG + other defenders.

First job of JUG is to not die.  JUGs dying is how the other team wins.

I think you have misunderstood my point. Your situation is that both jug are staying at their own base and are not likely to fight each other. But mine is that, even when they are standing side by side, they don't fire at each other. My jug stayed at their base and killed anyone who had just respawned. And the jug of other team was doing the same. It was a 6v6 map, and it was too hard to kill a jug with 5 or less players.(one of my teammate is using isida to heal my jug, which means that he is also in the enemy base, so actually we only have 4 players against one jug.)

The result was 10-0,(I used 3 nuclear energy to charge my viking OD) my jug got 70 kills, and the jug of the other team got 56 kills.

I believe it is clear that such behavior is a violation towards jug mode. 

I am pretty sorry for sending my complaint here because I didn't really know how and where to say this. Thanks for the moderators who remind me of the rules. 

[Bydo 20,119]

with this new update were now having players leaving before the 10 minute timer. and no new players joining which makes the game one sided.

OK - that is weird.

But - 5 or even 4 players should be able to kill a JUG and move on to the next player as JUG.

yea it did happen before , but if you remember back then . the system would also add players to your team to help win or have a some what decent battles . even if you were still on the loosing end of it. now the new system refuses to add players when you still can bring back a winning game or even a half decent battle.

if they can change the system to allow players to join battles it would be good. but also arrange it that if the battle score is past a certain amount such as in CP 40 then you know even with 10 minutes left there is very slim chance on taking back the battle.

That’s totally false. The system hasn’t changed with regards to adding players to already-started battles.

The only thing that’s changed outside of what’s stated in the patch notes is that the playerbase is rapidly shrinking. What you are experiencing is most likely a side effect of that. We are all feeling it in fact.

well what does this say..

[Note] You will no longer be in situations where you join a battle and an opponent already has battle score points. It will be fairer.

the way I'm taking it is/ that when a battle is in progress the system will no longer add any new players to a battle . leaving the battle to be whom ever is still in the battle to complete it , unless they leave the battle .

This is referring to the delay at the start of the battle, before the objectives have spawned.

You are taking this out of context (although I admit it seems a bit vague).

This note was tied to the delay period added in the patch update #680 and is concerning just that prep time. You still can get into ongoing battle sometimes, I have experienced it myself today and many times before. Only if you are playing in a group you will not get added to an ongoing battle.

I don't know about anyone else but I like to play on iran, highland and silence... classic maps like that. Getting put on the cross MM map all the time is really boring.
