Malicious use of page refreshes to maintain high KD

[Joker_0216 13]

Many years ago I found that refreshing the page could avoid being killed and reborn, and I thought that this might be used to keep the KD high.But I thought about it and thought it was too immoral, so I didn't use it.I didn't expect to find that some people were taking advantage of this recently.They maintain a high KD by exploiting this loophole, causing opponents to waste energy and health to do useless work.If it is in TDM mode, it will affect the victory or defeat!This is so unfair.

I found a person who used this vulnerability frequently.

It is hoped that such people will be punished.

This happens more and more in MM every year. Its also called "F5ing" (unofficial term). Most admins can't do much because that person refreshing can say he did because of an error and there is no way to prove he/she did not do it maliciously.

Tanki is a game that frequently gives errors and  bugs. Refreshing is the only way to clear them. Tanki could make it in a way that if a person refreshes more than a set number of times in MM (like 7-10 times) in TDM because its kill based he can be kicked form battle.

Unfortunately its hard to implement such measures fast, as it will take a lot of data into consideration.

And there is the reason why punishing players who refresh is a bad idea.

The game is error ridden because of all the crap they put into it.

remastered maps are the worst offenders, I avoid them as much as I avoid night mode.

Constant lag, screen freezing, no damage, getting kicked, wasting supplies and losing all rewards are a frequent bi-product of all the updates and events they bring into the game. 

It does not matter how many times you refresh or how many times you clear the cache or de-frag and a host of other stuff at your end, the game is full of errors and will not get any better because they either can't be bothered to fix the problems, or they do not no how to fix them. 

As long as players still spend cash they will continue to ignore the complaints of players and carry on doing what they do best, taking money from the weak willed buyers and those players who thrive on the latest OP gimmick.

TO will never improve as far as errors are concerned, because that would take a huge and sustained effort and cash to put right all the mistakes they created, like MM to name but one of the dozens of bad updates they have brought into the game. 

The game is a complicated, error infested mess.

tanki is not to blame, it is the players who spend their money without thinking. Besides, who says that if you don't pay, they don't listen to you? they listen to everyone but they will not put the ideas of all the players, there yes that tanki would be useless

As in EVERY game, there are bugs, problems...etc, it shows that you don't know how a game works or how to do it, in every game there are problems

they put it because you give it as an idea

Yes I have created a topic about it before, I get criticized for it as they assume IT NEVER HAPPENS.

Beg to differ.

On this we agree.

I personally (and lots of other players) have came up with some sound and viable idea's that would improve the game by a huge margin.

Your last bit did not make sense but I get what you mean. To implement most idea's from players would be foolish, because most players are clueless on how to go about this in a sensible and constructive manner that would actually improve the game for the majority of players, I am not a fool.

I have never claimed that I know what goes into making any game. I also may not know what goes into making a game "come to life" but I do know what causes a game to be constantly full of errors. Basically to much information within the game causes errors because the game can't handle it, that is not the fault of players but the developers. 

Every time there is an update, the errors are not far behind, this is a undeniable fact. Yes all games may have some bugs in it but THIS game is top of the list for being unplayable for long periods of time.

You ever heard the saying "you just walked right into that." I have not seen a single idea implemented in the game that I have mentioned, and I have mentioned quite a lot that would improve the game ten fold. I will get back to you when I can be bothered to list (AGAIN) all the useless and unwanted updates they have brought out that imo players did not ask for. And yes I know that when you said "you" you meant players in general. Like I said, I am not a fool.

With all due respect, Tanki has indeed become more unstable since 2021-2022. What with the no-damage bug, random lost connection errors, resource loading errors, and I've even gotten an ArrayOutOfBoundsException. If you ever see me in MM, you might notice that at the beginning of a match I'll shoot a few shots and instantly leave + rejoin. This is because I get the no-damage bug upon opening the game more often than not.
