But I thought you did the math :D

Ads ruin the look of any game. They're good for websites and small projects like mobile games, but for a game like Tanki they won't generate that much revenue, while ruining the clean look of the interface.

I'm sure you realise that developers won't intentionally display and highlight the flaws of their system. So while the stat may be interesting to some people, it's just bad PR.

Up until the drones update the number of crystals players received and the number of ways they could spend them was actually quite balanced, in my opinion. Last year we had a whole 7 months of triple mission chain rewards and a few months ago those were turned into permanent double rewards. We had individual mission rewards increased by 20%, and containers were added to mission chain rewards, giving you 4 every week, with a chance of getting up to a million crystals from them. Not to mention that weekly chains do not get reset now, allowing you to earn crystals from missions more effectively. Double battle funds and 50% sales are more common now than ever before. That being said, the introduction of batteries and drones makes all of above practically worthless, since i don't see how any free player could ever realistically earn over a million crystals in order to fully upgrade at least one drone and buy enough batteries for it to allow them to compete against buyers. Especially considering that full MU drones and batteries become available as early as Warrant Officer 1.

I assume all the screenshots are taken from V-logs. I understand that it's a massive thing to ask for, but it would be nice to have the date of the V-log from which each screenshot was taken, because a lot of these people appeared in V-logs years ago and have been long gone from the team.

Topic merged We are aware of this. The kit contents and prices have recently undergone a lot of changes, so we are in the process of updating it all. The information will be corrected in the near future.

The project has been completed. Please discuss the update in the news topic. Closed

This time it was a sarcastic comment, but in all seriousness we make a weekly report with a list of the best ideas for that week. Nives then takes the report and includes it in his own report, which is then seen by devs.

Then the game will be shut down due to lack of funding -_-

We always quote the post saying "topic merged", so make sure you have quote notifications enabled so that you receive that notification.

Topic merged This is a very similar idea.

Most annoying - yes, but definitely not OP.

Genius. Reported to devs immediately!

I don't see the point, tbh. The golds drop rate isn't that high, so the 16 of you will sit there and have a gold box maybe once per battle, so you'll need 2 hours and 40 minutes just to catch one gold each. Not to mention that you'll have to re-enter a battle after every round. But I agree that taking over a battle would be fun to do :D

Yeah, doing this would require completely reworking the way maps are loaded. Instead of having the whole map loaded all the time, there would need to be a system that only loads the area the player is in, and developing such a system is a massive project.

0 fund gold box in standard battle. Dropped about 5 seconds after battle started. Shows how golds no longer depend on battle funds, unless someone dropped it and didn't have their name showing :P

A "normal player" should enjoy the game for its game mechanics and gameplay features. In that sense the game is almost completely fair - every single item that can be used in battles (turrets, hulls, MUs, modules, alterations, supplies, etc.) can be purchased with crystals for a fairly affordable price, so you can have all those things and enjoy the game by earning crystals from battles and missions, without having to spend real money. But when it comes to cosmetic items and other stuff that doesn't affect gameplay (paints, XT skins, premium account, nickname change, clans...), it's fine to have those items in the Shop only, because this encourages players to spend money on non-essential items, thus bringing more revenue to the project without giving "buyers" an advantage in gameplay. Sure, it's annoying that as a free player you can't easily get an XT skin now, but that's the reality - you ALWAYS have to spend more if you want to look fancy and stand out. While it's true that mods and helpers can't publicly post heavy criticism about the game, constructive criticism has always been allowed. The reason I support most updates is not because I get paid to do it, but because I understand the purpose of these updates and why they were necessary. So I'm telling you like a man, and not just a mod: developers need to generate revenue to support the game, and putting XT skins in the Shop was a great opportunity to provide another source of income without affecting the balance between free players and "buyers".

As said by others above, you need to click the "Battle!" button to access the main menu and choose the appropriate battle mode from there - you will be put into a battle automatically. For more details watch the V-log, where they answered the most common questions about Matchmaking. If you have any more questions, please post in the Q&A topic. Closed

Topic merged I think it's best to wait for the other 9 drones to be released and then post suggestions for more drones. Besides, a "support" drone is already planned to be one of the future 9.
