increasing map sizes as you rank up (excluding smaller maps?) is a terrible idea

Yes, it is horrible. I have hated the experiment with 16 players and large maps. It would be a very bad  idea!

I think that smaller maps will not be excluded but if you get into account small and big possibility of getting any

of these is smaller then if you have only small maps.

There will be no possiblities. Low ranks = small maps = few players, high ranks = large maps = many players.

That would mean: If you are low ranked you would play small maps until you rank up. If you are high ranked, you would always play large maps and many player. This is the bad thing about it in my opinion.

No you are wrong.

Small maps and big is in a same case of possibilities of random creating the game

and map and when it is created players are put in that game.

are u still gunu earn stars from challenges?

Ultra containers.

had some ultra containers stored but now after this update they are labelled as "old ultra containers". what is different between these and the new ones?

[Deniz 86]

MM doesnt work since restart

[Atomic_Tanker 249]

Since shards can be obtained easily and exchanged for containers, will the container drop probability for better items(ex. 100k crystals, turret/hull skins,etc. ) decrease?                  BTW the update for MM sounds good also!

Changes:

• Maps size and number of players depend on players’ ranks. The higher players' ranks are, the more players there are in battles and the larger maps are.

• Now, the number of players in an MM battle depends on the size of the map.

• Now, the list of available maps depends on the number of players in an MM group.

• The higher your rank is, the more players you may invite. The maximum number of players in a group is 4 (including a group leader).

 

We have done a lot of work, so we would appreciate your feedback about these recent changes in the comments.

My feedback is fix these wait times. There is no one to play with, because of this stupid update. Even quick goes to more than 5 minute wait times. Also if this game had a bit more than 2k players online, this wouldn't be an issue, now this is what hundreds of people will have to deal with.

I could've done a whole MM battle in this time. Now I'm stuck just waiting to go into a MM battle. I just paid for 3 days of premium, for nothing. I just want to complete my daily missions, man. Just, why? 

 

Edit: The wait time has now surpassed 10 minutes

Edit 2: 18 minutes in RGB please help me

Well, you have obviously done a great job in this up. But you still need to fix the mm. No Warrant Officer would ever want to play against Legends. If you fix the mm, this update would make a more sense. I expect a reply.

Stun smoky or whatever the augment is called does NOT drop flags or balls, I tested it on the test server, if it was implemented that way here, u don't have much to worry about.

Higher ranks I read more big maps in battles will see, and players too more in the maps will be.

I just put this exact same thing in Bugs and Glitches.  If this is not fixed very quickly, it is a game killer.  No one is going to wait and wait and wait and wait and wait and wait and wait and wait to enter a battle...regardless of rewards.  Tanki has already deteriorated into a kind of mission drudgery game (the grind)...who in their right mind will spend this much time to play these current insipid luck based battles? 

These awful waiting times have to be some sort of glitch attached to the update coding.  They will have to fix this (quickly I hope) or Tanki is finished if this is actually the new normal.

I realized that a temporary fix to that bug is just to refresh the client. I tried that and the battle queues worked perfectly fine after that.

I like the method of getting 10 shards from just watching a ad of something like 30 secs (sometimes it is 5 secs too) in the mobile version.

Sadly that is not working with the browser...at least not for me.  I was logging in and out so much I just stopped trying to play.  I'll try again tomorrow.

 

While fixing this wait time situation, I hope they decide to try and fix the abrupt, jolting end of battle screen.  It's as bad as it was when HTML first came out.  You are in a battle fighting away and in a millisecond you get a huge contrasting color Defeat or Victory screen...totally unpleasant.

I would like to say this is the best update we have had in awhile. Thanks Devs! Shards

On the Wiki, it is stated clearly that this is a THIRD currency next to Crystals and Tankoins. 

I'm requesting that the Green Shards should be put to the right of crystals on the top right corner of the main menu. So I can check how much I have instead of constantly clicking Containers to see.

1- Fix the 0 damage produced by magnum for some hits.

2- Add preferences for containers. Each player can prioritize the prize by categories (augments, suplies, gold boxes, premium, etc...) because every player has different preferences.

3- Add an option to replace prizes in challenges in case the prize is a duplicate. For example, I already had all the augments offered by the golden tier in this month's challenge!

1: fix your wifi

2: no all u will get is mines, and so will we

3: dont buy bp if u already have the augments

[Maf 32,300]

So I tested the shards thing a little bit. Not only do you get 150 shards (or 1.5 containers) every day just by completing the 3 daily missions, but in theory you could also open TO mobile and watch an ad every 7 minutes, potentially getting a container every 70 minutes, or 20 containers per day without needing to play any battles. Wow.
