v-log Tanki Online V-LOG: Episode 369

[Bydo 20,120]

see if players are now allowed to go into a battle and do nothing , is this not called Sabotage ? along with what happened to when players are just not battling in a battle would the system , not then removed them so the system could allow a player to join and help win a battle?

what now will be happening is players in other battles will now be allowed to just camp in a battle and watch as his team gets destroyed.

another Dev item to be Tanked into the Trash Bin.

bots for matchmaking should be trained by players.

I would train them to go after paladin rejects and upon encountering said reject immediately transform into G-O-D-M-O-D-E with the speed of a jug, equipped with a maxed crisis and it's turrets converted into twins with Viking overdrive, that should just about do it.

No one will want to play, if the game is predictable !

Nerf, buff, copy, paste. Make as much cash as possible, with as little balance as possible, in a failed MM system.

Heads up, it's already very "PREDICTABLE".

My solution to alleviate the MM problem has obviously not been taken into consideration, if it even got read, so bring on the bots and lets see what happens. Either way I do not think it will affect END GAME maxed legends and what it certainly will not do, is do any favours to low and mid rank players.

Devs think they have found the solution, but like their failed MM it will not solve the problem of low G/S players ranking to quickly and the status quo will remain intact, which means nothing will change.

Thus, my prediction is that the addition of bots to MMS would work  for mid-range ranks so as to avoid players of higher range ranks to join their rank-bracket .

Yes this might be the case, but the problem of ranking to quickly without the funds to upgrade your garage still remains and that means underpowered low G/S players getting thumped in battle and being of no use whatsoever to their team mates, apart from getting in the way and being annoying.

No, tanki, we don't need bots cuz the game is already full of them xD

Hello,

I noticed that the new interface is missing something. In capture the flag mode, when someone drop the flag/lose the flag, there's no message that says for example : Soothing lost the flag. Even in Rubgy mode, if we drop the ball or we lose it, there's no message that says Soothing dropped the ball or lost the ball. So add those message in the new actual interface

Topic Merged

The notification was intentionally removed in the one of the previous patch, but yes it should be brought back because it is one of the essentials notifs.

This game is getting worse and worse. For real?! Bots will be added to the game?!?! Ya, to help low rankers to understand this game better. The number of players in Tanki is so low, that you want to bring them into the game, that's also why. 

Well, I agree with the arguments about bots, that they will help players learn about the basics a bit, about the teamwork, but bots aren't real players and they will never be like them, even as if the bots would be perfectly programmed. As you said in the V-LOG "After all, a bot will never behave like a real player." so how do we know if they will be really helpful?

The 3rd experimental stage would be a total disaster for the MM battles, except for low ranked ones. Adding bots to both teams will ruin the tactics planned with allies, they would turn them upside down. Of course lot of players know about huge diversity of ranks of players and often GS, but I disagree that bots are the solution. They will ruin the battles even more and make the gameplay far worse. Well, this will maybe help for low rank battles, but on medium and high ranks it will destroy the whole gameplay. Now winning on the team would not only depend on which teammates you have and which enemies you have to deal with, but also on the amount of bots on both teams. I truly belive bots won't disturb real players with the gameplay. 

To sum up, In my opinion, bots should be only in the battles with low ranks, for the middle and high ranks they would rather disturb than help their teammates. Experiment with MM is unnecessary to share an opinion about it and I hope this will not be made permanent.

Bots ? Yes ! I want bots !

I prefer to have in my team camper bots. Not noob players that just sit in base and camp like stupids.
