I'm closing this topic since it mostly just provokes hateful comments about other players. Please refrain from discussing the ever-present issue of a gameplay gap between buyers and free players anywhere on the forum. If you have a specific suggestion or complaint about this matter, you can post in the Complaint Book. Closed.

By raising the prices and driving potential buyers away with ridiculous price tags? Yeah, seems like an effective strategy.... not. Also why wouldn't they want to do it to Russians too? I won't take racism for an answer - that's just a pointless rumour.

Actually, I'm pretty sure that the first MU sale after addition of XT items (probably around Christmas, because I bought Thunder XT in November), did include XTs, because I really doubt that I would have MUed it to 30/50 without sales. Not that it matters, but I just feel that you should know :D

No, you misread it. What I asked is what reasons they have to do what they do now (i.e. charge more to foreigners)?

Am I missing something, or did you completely ignore my question? I said name a good reason why devs would do this. Because what I'm seeing (and from what I heard project officials say) is that there are legitimate reasons for prices outside of Russia to be higher and that due to economic differences and money transfer costs Tanki still gets the same amount in the end. And the numbers you've given me are simply not related to this particular situation.

OK, so in that case give me one reason why developers would want to purposefully make payments more expensive for foreigners (making them less likely to spend money on the game)?

Yeah, pretty much. Sometimes probably even more than 50% goes to payment providers.

Simple: it costs different amounts to transfer your payment to Russia from various parts of the world, so from some countries the payment service takes a bigger share of your money than when you buy from other countries. As a result you pay more, but Tanki gets the same amount of money as from someone who bought the same thing for a cheaper price in Russia.

Topic merged The inability to use the clan chat is one of the intentional penalties imposed on a player for violating the rules, just like the inability to create battles or add messages to gifts. Highly unlikely that this would be changed.

IMHO, the only reason why buyers would hate free players is because they drag down the team. They enter the battle, don't use supplies in crucial moments, use weak equipment, have very little protection, etc. And what's worse, they complain about others using drugs, when all they need to do is buy the (now cheaper) PRO pass and play without supplies. But free players despise buyers a lot more, mostly because of jealousy and the fact that buyers make themselves unfairly strong with money.

OK, can you explain in detail what the "hack" looks like? Or provide screenshots/video?

Well, I suppose. But I don't really want to add too many records, which simply require a lot of buying. So unless you have some crazy amount of golds (like, 500+) in your garage, I don't want to add it.

As said above, you haven't joined this clan. You only sent them a request to join and they didn't accept it yet. That's also why the [tag] doesn't appear in front of your name.

Could you explain what it looks like? I've been playing this game for 5 years and haven't seen "wall hacks" for the past 3 years. Even if they do exist, they definitely aren't used by 80% of the players. What I think you're seeing is a visual glitch cause by lag, where it looks like a shot hit you through a wall. Those aren't hacks and you will see less of it if you have a better internet connection.

Not interesting. First of all, every single player got that discount and second - it's not really anything impressive. Just something devs decided to do once.

Please read this post to learn about how to create a clan on the forum. Closed.

What's the point in making such a battle? Unless your clan is full of terrible members, you'll win any game against random players. It almost isn't fair.

0 We should change the game to "count before a player replies" :D
