declined Making a better MM system full balanced!

[DMR 677]

Hello,

I got a new idea of MM. So MM system should put buyers in same battle and non buyers in same battle. Non buyer could have the ability to join buyers battle just for fun but the buyers can't join non buyers battle. This idea could fix the unbalanced battle and bring joy in battle!

This idea has many problems in it. To begin with, how do you determinate whether someone is a buyer or not? If someone bought tankoins once, that makes him a buyer? And what if a player bought many tankoins but only bought skins? (meaning that he doesn't own any ultra container exclusive augments). Don't forget that players can get ultra containers from special missions and lucky players obtain OP augments, but that doesn't make them buyers, does it? We have a GS system in the game; even though it's not perfect, it tells how strong is your equipment and usually players of the same GS are matched together in MM.

On top of what I mentioned above - You did not suggest an actual way to solve the unbalanced MM battles issue. This is equivalent to telling a sick person "just get healthy" without providing any useful solutions.

Grind in events, collect stars, open containers, you will definitely get something good out of it.

what if the items of buyers are made more balanced, instead?

That's not true, you can come up with ways to improve MM.

That's the difference, you want something anywhere, you have to EARN it.

You want to compete with buyers, better start making effort.

There's a difference between playing hard and "grinding".  Or do you really not understand that?

And no matter how much I "grind", I won't be getting exclusive augments or that 4th protection slot.

I do fine against most players.  But grinding makes the game boring real fast - and a dis-incentive to continue playing.

No wonder the player-base keeps shrinking and MM has to pit Majors against Legends...

Nope. Doesn't work that way.

Tell me, how do you earn crisis? Is there any assured way? Do this and you are bound to get crisis? If yes, I would be the first one to play even for 2 days at a stretch, if it takes that much of an effort to earn it but sadly no.

I do not support this idea, but I would just like to point out a flaw in the opinion of yours.
In real life if you want a PS5 you can earn it but if you want Crisis, you need luck
Earn is a word which makes more sense in Real life. When it comes to games, Luck makes better sense, not earn.

What you say isn't how games work. It is not a problem just with Tanki but with other games as well. The only issue is that in Tanki, the difference in power is exponentially greater.
You have an extra slot. It is decided, you have better chances of survival since you get protection against 4 turrets!

You can definitely deal with this issue, how? Making drones and a bit stuff cheaper and such stuff a bit more accessible and cheaper. You don't have to sell crisis for crystals, nope. All you have to do is reduce the cost of using a drone/item so that you can have a better chance against buyers.

Crisis is a different story, don't use it to argue your point pls. Total cheating on this argument that will be. You need to earn ultras to get it anyway...

Well I've known friends who got crisis from the Ultras you got for free on Tanki Birthday and I've known friends who have been earning Ultras for the past year, since crisis was released, but only in vain.

I am not trying to make that my argument's basis duh. I am just trying to imply that if i work hard enough I am sure of getting a PS5 in my real life. That is not exactly the case in the game. Not only in tanki but in any game. That's how the business model of games is.

Just trying to correct him that hard work might take you to greater heights in real life but not the same in a game. Yes, you are going to get better equipment and you will get to be a strong opponent for others but you'll always need luck to get a few exclusive fun-to-use stuff.

Luck is most important, whether in catching golds or container opening

No, in catching golds skill is more important, unless you are a noobie like me, using hopper.... then that is OD. luck doesn't really help you catch gold box.

Would have agreed if it was Flash physics, but.....
Now just take blaster and ruin the gold for everyone, am I right ? @At_Shin

Gonna have to disagree with you here. Luck comes in many different ways from simply the gold box dropping right next to you to just so happen to have a dictator, mammoth, hopper, or Ares equipped and even more so if you have an OD ready.

So I would say that luck plays a major factor in gold box catches. Sure skill is nice, but luck pretty much determines your chances of catching the gold box.

 

I know the majority of my gold box catches were based off of pure luck if not all of them.

What is painful to others pleasures me greatly 

Gold Boxes are just 1k crystals anyway. I'd rather enjoy obtaining a mega-kill at the drop zone - blaster style.

Yeah, I only really attempt to catch containers. I only grab normal golds if I know I can easily get it.
