Nice screens that show that the fund is decreased by way more than 31% as stated by Tanki official lairs... And if you look closer... NOBODY in the battle after 123 got more than before, ALL got less! Here are 2 more of similar battles with close points but before and after 123: Before: After: Similar high points and kills, and flags but the difference of the fund is: 15130 before to 5653 after 123 which is rather -60%

That was a standard sale for the russian holiday of armed forces and happened every year... so nothing to be excited about lol

Why make this topic at all when the answer to all comments is "They are demo maps, dont ask!"??

No they need to make an update with downtime now to remove the Valentines paint (like they needed one to add it with the sale)... cause all get better and easier since the new server platform... The latest video blog is sad poor propaganda and after lying once I dont believe anything anymore

That's exactly how this looks like: Rebalance... needed they say... well I dont know it might not have been a real bad thing besides higher prices and the lie that it is now easier for new players to compete because all is now "balanced". Now come on... before rebalance there were these "Tier 1.5" Hull (Dictator) and Turrets (Isida and Railgun) which was a very effort-able combination at relative low ranks that was able to compete (maybe not rule) quite nice until the very high ranks. Battles with combinations of wasp and rail or dictator and rail were possible to play for a large scale of players with the SAME M3 equiptment! Now this is all gone and I (with M3 Mammoth and M3 Thunder) go to destroy the WO5 in my battle who is saving his hard earned crystals for the ONE M3 combination he is able to buy now when he is Generalissimo in 18 months or so) who uses M1 Hunter (opens at WO4) and M1 Railgun (opens at WO3). VERY balance now is it? So what happened here is quite simple... they did lose a lot when failing with Tanki 2.0 and try now desperate to gain a bit back... BUT they make the big mistake that they push away most of their players (the ones who do not buy or just very little) and the game will fail and die if those who are the BIG BASE of Tanki go missing... Update 123 then added to the higher prices that it is harder to earn crystals (the reason for this is, you have 3 more ranks now so you have to play 444000 experience points longer to get the same crystals!) Less crystal fund (which they say is 31% less but that is probably a lie again (i dont believe them a word anymore, cause they lied once at least!) cause all who play think it is rather 50-60% less than before... causes also less crystal drops (less chance for gold to drop)... so overall it is more than double harder to earn the same as before 123 now.

They are working on that button and it will come soon... BUT be sure it wont be free to use but I bet my m0 viking that it will cost us crystals to use this then awesome new feature! (which we had for 3 years for free for just a little effort)

Like ELain said: In CTF battles if one team loses with 0 flags they get nothing, they did not get any before this update either. But due to a lower battle fund the number of dropping crystals (and chance for gold) is also decreased so the losing and winning team loses here in the end due to the "economics update" which just tries to get people to buy because without buying and the chance of having rather cheap (but half way competitve) equipment (like Dictator, Isida and Rail before the rebalance) gone they expect newbies to play for TWO years to be able to have ONE M3 combo now. It really seems that since they lost with the failure of Tanki 2.0 now all efforts go into squeezing more money out of the players before the game just dies... Developers are forced to gain what they lost for failing for Tanki 2.0 back in addition to the normal income of tankionline. Reaction by a TankiOnline Player caught on camera:

But as little as YOU care what WE need, WE don't care what YOU need and want and keep on complaining because that is the only thing we can do, so we do it!

They just keep lying to us thinking we are so stupid to believe anything they say... But remember "Once you lie nobody ever trusts you again"

It's the same box with a 0 added it just drops less (like the blue boxes with the 10) now less frequent than the old blues and 100 one because they drop related to the battle fund which increases now slower than before.

So it has come that consultants (who lie a lot to us as I pointed out before) start to just quote the Rules and Eula... This clearly means they have no arguments left and know that we get ripped of here...

Sad is that they serious lied to us and thought we wouldnt notice: This is a screenshot from the inital post to Update 123 by Vladimir Kovtun funny how he lies and says "We have multiplied all the parameters in the game related to crystals by 10!" Missed just to mention that less crystals drop and the funds are reduced

And again I was lied to by someone with forum Avatar who kept saying that Consultants cannot close topics and do not do Moderation work. The Russian Topic has over 3300 replies (before it was locked) and you tell me those arent complains and they just keep going? This is NOT for the good of the game this is clearly a rip off. Also calling something a bug which is even planned as feature is just to rip us off more! Just repeat the propaganda which tries to explain: Now you just need to play 50% longer to get the same as before, be happy about that or make us happy and pay pay pay!

As nobody replies to me on the update topics and the 123 is already locked down... Since Update 123 it is no more possible to log into a different server to change something on your tank (turret, hull, paint) and to return into the battle by refreshing the original window, without losing your points (you got 1 death added though). Specially after the new server platform such things should be more easy to maintain and it was even pointed to that we might get a new feature to change during battles without using the old trick to log into a different server (which is broken now). So what is going on here? First you cut down our battle fund and now make sure we get less points as well because we either have to leave a battle and hope to be able to return for the price of losing all points or just play on with a possible failing tank combination for that battle.

Why does nobody care that you arent able to change weapon/hull/paint anymore as you could before 123.... 124 has NOT fixed this but it is only the added holiday paint and discount.... where the discount is something that break all arguments given "Why the battle fund was decreased in 123" (because you earn to fast to buy m3 else) now you made 2 weapons 50% within a short period of time... Nobody is able to believe any of your words being sincere anymore dear TankiOnline crew :( Happy Valentines Day :(

awesome, so nothing was fixed what 123 messed up.... you are seriously trying to rip us off here now! VERY VERY disappointed And when I try to equip my just purchased Firebird now... I get disconnected by sever??? every other weapon or tank is fine.... You really try to rip me off here dont you?

So finally someone admits that this update is about giving us less crystals (1/3 lower battle fund is not NOTHING than before for since 2013 (Re-Balance) higher prices. Besides that it is hard to predict what you meet in a battle on guns after re-balance the ability to do a "pit stop" and change your tank/gun/paint without losing a spot and your points in the battle was removed in update 123. Now those with forum Avatars kept saying "nothing changed, just a 0 added" ... are you liars or dont know anything? (then dont post about what you dont know). I just can hope some things that got us screwed in 123 will be turned back in 124 today. I better stop before I start to express my real anger and disappointment in this.

Then try to change your paint during a battle without losing your spot and points and say again "update 123 changed NOTHING. Besides that failure it seriously seems that everything but the battle fund is increased by 10x. So right now I prefer it to be rolled back or fixed!

I really hope this is a bug and will be fixed ASAP: Unable to change tank in the garage anymore without losing spot and points in battle since update 123!! FIX this ASAP or just roll all back, I dont care about the 10x factor but being not able to change is a step backwards in anyway!

Good that nobody needs your approval LOL

Tanki does not make Windows, MacOS, Linux, Android, iOS versions but is a browser (Internet Explorer, Firefox, Chrome, Opera, Safari...) game based on Adobe Flash Player (and more and more with hardware acceleration needed)... So if your OS is fully supported by Adobe Flash then you are happy to play TankiOnline on it... (Linux is no fun anymore as Flash cancelled the Hardware Acceleration support for it)

Well, after watching this for some months now... How about a contest to guess which is the final time tanki states in their "updates" message (like today's): Dear Tankmen! On the February 13 we will be working on updating Tanki Online up to version 123. Game servers will be down at 06:30 and back again at 08:30...09:00...10:00... (UTC+4). It always changes the closer it comes to the announced time to 30 mins or 1 hour later... So the contest would be to guess the actual final time they post.

This is not "Tightening of Moderation Standards" As the topic says because that would mean that the standards for being a Moderator and becoming one get tightened... But what this prolly poor translation from Russian means is: "Rules of chat violation will be enforced more strict" by still loose Moderators ; And I wonder most why this is part of "Developer News"...

Gallery has supplies though...

It would just be nice if something about "Battle Ethic" would be done as well... Because it gets worse and worse... At least the high rank No Supply Battles used to be fought fair... some time ago. But by now it is just..."cap quick some flags as soon as possible, no matter if the teams are even or not... then we just need to defend until the time runs out." Good tactics? Well, sad and poor play of players who arent able to win a fair fight but it becomes more and more common these days. Might have to do with the ability to buy rank now, I dont know....
