What changes would YOU like to see in Tanki?

[Person_Random 4,991]

Ok,

This isn't a sneak secret post by developers designed to ruin your day in Tanki.

This isn't a misplaced Ideas and Suggestions Topic.

This is just a place where you can talk about any changes you'd like to see in Tanki. Anywhere. The game? Yep! The community? Sure thing! The trajectory of current updates? Go right ahead! The Newspaper? No. Please place that in the respective suggestions topic.

So what are you waiting for? Get your ideas in now!

 

Pliz no ban this is for an article i'm trying to be popular and i'm running out of ideas.

[SONIC-BOOM 326]

LOL where do i begin.

Ok i will only say one thing, as i have said everything that can be said about everything that is bad about TO.

GET RID OF THE FLYING HACK.

Along with and in no particular order:

AP

EMP

Useless HTML5 GARAGE

XP/CRY ratio

MM.........disaster

Rank spreads.......complete disaster.

Scamboxes. The name says it all.

Ultras..........anything but ultra. 

And did i mention the flying hack, THE most OP update ever in TO.

Apart from those few seriously flawed things, everything is peachy. 

On a side note, i really hope this topic gets hundreds of replies and paves the way for serious positive changes in TO.

The main change that everyone wants to see in Tanki, but everyone knows that it will never happen is to ban hoppers from participate on events mode...

 but it will not happen as I said, So I will leave it as a dream

I hate why players complaint and asking about banning Hopper from events while Hopper's biggest problem is in capturing not taking GBs.

Maf, how dare you outlaw us to Riddlerville?!?!?

 

Okay, but seriously, here's what I'd love personally: all of the people that used to be active in this game and forum like me should come back. So many fun old players and helpers have left in the last year, and the years before it, which really has been sad to see. I won't even begin to go into all the names, there's so many. But yeah, the change I'd like to see is the return of the folks who, independent of how good or bad the game was, made some of the good ol' days what they were.

Yes, everyone used to be friendly and react with love because it's FREE. Old Tankers are lovely but so much

Easy they are the one that play good and that doesn't swear...
It is known that the game is pretty unbalanced, too many boys and not enough girls. But devs never listen.

I'd love to see a better support system for YouTubers creating content for the game.

I think the support that currently exists is great if you have a large channel, but for YouTubers just starting out (averaging only a few hundred views per month), they don't qualify for any support, and that's a bit demeaning. I've personally seen a multitude of small channels with only a couple dozen/hundred subscribers, but their videos are on par/better than some much larger channels that are receiving support through the YouTuber TO system, and it's sad to see that their efforts aren't getting them some worthwhile support.

 

Specifically speaking, I think the YouTuber TO system should continue rewarding promo codes based on views, but in addition to that, I think the system should also reward content creators based on the number of videos created, regardless of their view counts (in an attempt to reward the effort of such people). Now, that could pose the situation where people are abusing the system, and just creating a plentiful number of videos but not putting a decent amount of effort into them, so to combat that, there should be a sort of "tier" system (further outlined in the spoiler below, if you're looking for more information).

Spoiler

3 videos in one month - 1 container

7 videos in one month - 2 containers

10 videos in one month - 3 containers

15 videos in one month - 5 containers

 

Capped at 15 videos per month

Of course, this should also come with the ability for ANY Player to link an accompanying YouTube channel to their account on the YouTuber TO website, without needing to meet a requirement to do so (currently, you have to reach 5,000 views within a 30-day time frame in order to be allowed to apply to join the program, but with the changes being made, that rule should be abolished).

In addition to those possible rewards for all content creators, I think there should be some sort of prize to be won by a channel of any size, through some sort of randomizer. For example, a raffle could be held each month that any YouTuber that uploaded at least one video could be entered into, and have a prize like some special promo code that includes two weeks of Premium (for example) up for grabs for whomever manages to be selected. I think this would both be fair for all content creators (and would interest people in the art of making videos), while also not heavily costing the game, either monetarily or reputationally. That's just one idea for a prize however, maybe something even larger (like access to Spectator Mode for the next 30 days) could be offered, and that'd for sure increase the interest of Players by a wide margin.

 

I hate to mention rivaling games within this Forum, but I think it's important to recognize what a game like Tanki's direct competitor, MyTanks, is doing to support their content creators. Without getting into specifics, that game provides similar support to ALL YouTubers that make videos about the game (big and small), and that's definitely been an incentive I've seen for content creators to make content about that game. I think if Tanki were to do something similar, more people would be interested in making content for the game, and that's honestly a form of marketing without any true cost if you think about it, as it engages a community of both newcomers and long-time Players of the game.

While we're on the topic of rivaling games, I think the rule listed regarding not creating videos about direct competitors of Tanki is rather harsh, and has the potential of pushing away content creators that are thinking about creating videos for this game, so this rule should be abolished. On top of it being a bit confusing as to why Tanki is limiting the creativity for supported creators, it's also baffling that the rule only applies to direct competitors of the game, and not all other games in general. For example, someone could make a video about Fortnite on their supported Tanki channel just to try something new and fun, and not face any consequences leading to the loss of support for their channel, whereas a content creator that does the same with a differing game like MyTanks isn't as fortunate. I think the rules should be more fair in this regard, and content creators should only be punished with a loss of support if they're bad-mouthing Tanki in their videos, not if they're just merely uploading content about another game.

 

I created content based around this game ever since 2014, and if I'm being completely honest, the support I've received throughout that time frame was demoralizing, as I felt most of my efforts were going to waste, as the only channels receiving any form of true support from the game were ones averaging very high numbers of views. I personally know how hard it was to build my first channel from scratch, up until meeting some unfortunate circumstances around the 3,000 subscriber mark that left me having to create a completely new channel to continue my passion for content creation, having to build a whole new channel from scratch, and I think that this experience, for other people, could lead to their giving up on creating content, as growth can be stagnant at times, especially in the early days of one's channel. However, I think that providing a more widespread support for content creators could provide incentive to people battling the will to give up after such a circumstance, and keep them on the track of making videos. I've personally always remembered how hard it was for me to get where I am today with my channel, and because of that, I've always tried helping up-and-coming YouTubers, not only because I want to see more exciting content being made, but also because I know how joyous I was when a few of my closest YouTuber friends back in the day (shout out to @muffinman361) did the same for me, and it lit a fire within to continue down a path towards growing my channel. If I'm being boldly obvious, I really don't enjoy this game at all, and I don't appreciate the outcomes of some encounters I've had within this game, but nonetheless, I wish to continue seeing people making content for the game, and finding success because of it.
