You don't seem to understand the point of a Premium account. It's a paid subscription option that helps players make their gaming experience simpler and more convenient. A normal player has to spend many hours playing the game to get to the maximum rank and buy all of the best equipment, so if someone doesn't want to do that - they buy a Premium account in order to save time and enjoy the game more. These players pay real money to support the project, so it's completely fair that for them the amount of "grinding" needed to get the in-game items they want is reduced. It doesn't give them an advantage in battles. It would only be an advantage if it would give paying players access to more powerful equipment, which it doesn't. If anything, it's actually a DISadvantage because if they spend less time playing before they get to the highest rank, it means they will be less experienced compared to other players, so they may find it more difficult to compete. Premium accounts have absolutely no effect on game balance. More crystals and score - no advantage, simply allows you to get to generalissimo faster , while getting crystals at the same rate relative to ranks. If anything, it's a disadvantage because premium users will have less experience than normal players and will have trouble competing. The 100% crystal bonus is simply an alternative way to buy crystals, instead of buying them directly like we always could. Highlighted rank icon - no advantage. 15% paint - only advantage at low ranks. Low ranks are not expected to buy the Premium account, while at high ranks 15% from all guns is a below-average paint. XT items for sale in garage - no advantage.

Once again, welcome back and I hope you got all the answers you needed for now. Unfortunately, question topics like this are not allowed on the forum, so if you have any more questions - feel free to ask them on the help.tankionline.com site :) Closed.

I think someone already suggested that before and we decided not to add it. A paint isn't something that influences your gameplay THAT much, so if you get a high ratio with that paint it simply means that you were good at using that particular weapon/hull and just happened to be using the paint.

Red Suit has exactly that. You can't buy it anymore though.

Valid [mps] [ctrl] [intf] [gmpl] This may render some current tactics obsolete, such as hiding the flag in different places during a flag exchange or sneaking into the enemy base. But other than that I like the idea. Would definitely allow you coordinate your actions better such as choose the best direction from which to attack or check if any areas of your base are left undefended.

Topic merged Sorry, but this idea won't happen. Daily missions are already optional and you even have the ability to change them, so adding further choice makes the system more complicated and also disturbs the economic balance, since everyone will be selecting crystal rewards and therefore getting double the amount of crystals from missions than before. Selecting supply rewards will be completely pointless because you will be able to get crystals instead and then use those crystals to buy supplies if you need them, or even save up and get up to 5x more supplies for the initial cost by using the supply kits.

It's bad because of many popular paints having Thunder protection. Africa, Clay, Picasso, Prodigy...

I'm sure there would be an option to disable it.

The game chat and forum are both means of players communicating with one another. If someone is violating rules in one place, then (as DS said) they are likely to do the same in the other place too. And the fact that the two are not the same does not mean that giving out bans in both doesn't make sense. It's a punishment. A punishment is meant to make your life inconvenient so that you rethink your actions and not do the same thing again. And that "inconvenience" does not have to be directly related to the thing you did wrong. It's simple - if you want to use the game chat freely, don't violate rules on the forum. No, we can't. Downvoting a topic does not violate any rules, but it provokes the other user(s) to post flame/insults in response, for which they can get banned. As a result the initiator of the conflict remains untouched, the victim gets banned and the forum is stuck with a messed up topic that has a bunch of downvotes for no reason. It was a loophole in the rules and it had to be removed. What? I mean, WHAT?!?!?! You're saying that the mods somehow have greater influence over their administrator and he can't do anything about it? That is some seriously messed up logic there and I have no idea how you even managed to come to that conclusion. The only way DS would support us and reject your complain is if we actually didn't do anything wrong and you simply misunderstood something about the rules or the particular instance that you were complaining about. And if you actually think that an administrator has made a mistake, then the only option is to complain to the CM, but by that point I can guarantee you that whatever it is you are trying to prove is your own misconception. And I can bet you that every single OP wants to be "in the spotlight" and have their own topic to discuss an issue, rather than using an already existing topic with an identical, or very similar discussion. It doesn't matter how informative a topic is - if it discusses an issue that has already been raised and explained thoroughly in another topic, then there is no point keeping them separate. We remove dozens of topics every day, many of which are complete rubbish and were posted by users, who clearly know why their topic will be removed and just wanted to make our life more difficult. Sending a PM to each one of them will more than double the amount of work we need to do, so we would be wasting our time writing PMs that many players won't even bother to read. It's not a case of laziness, but rather it being an unnecessary waste of time and effort. If someone wants to know the reason for the removal of their topic, they can PM a mod to find out - we never ignore such requests.
-
The thing is, even if removing the downvotes causes only 10 more people to actually post their opinion instead of just leaving a dislike, it would still be a better feedback that having the likes and dislikes to use as an update's success measure. Besides, having dislikes on a topic had influence on those who came to view it. People would see a lot of downvotes and also downvote the topic just because others did it, often without actually trying out the update or even reading the information.

At your rank there are very few PRO battles because not many players want to spend 5000 crystals on a pass, but at higher ranks there are plenty of battles. A PRO pass gives you access to battles with much more advanced settings, such as: Ability to set a custom flag/kill/point and time limits, so if you don't want to play 15/30/60 minutes, you can set it to be something else. If you want, you can completely remove a score cap or the time limit. So, for example - the battle only ends when one of the teams captures 33 flags. Or the battle only ends after 45 minutes of playing, no matter how many flags are captured. The limits are set much higher that standard battles. You can create a battle that lasts 999 minutes (16 hours) or a battle that requires 999 flags to be captured. The latter usually lasts up to 24 hours if people keep playing the battle and not abandon it. Disable gold boxes. Some people find golds distracting and game-breaking, so they want to play battles without them to concentrate on the actual game more. Disable micro-upgrades. It's impossible to tell how much a tank us MUed just by looking at it, so this option is there to eliminate this unfair advantage. Disable supply drops from the sky. Disable supplies. Disable supply cooldowns. This option makes it so that supplies can be used the way they were working 2 years ago before the major change. It allows players to activate all supplies at once without having to wait, which is the way many old players seem to prefer. Make private battles. This means that the battle you create will only be seen by you and the people you invite to it. Everyone else will only be able to access the battle if someone gives them a direct link. Make format battles. Hornet-Railgun, Wasp Railgun, Parkour. The first two formats are for professional battles as a standard to eSports and the Parkour format is, well, for parkour - no score, no supply cooldowns and no self-destruct zones. Remove autobalance, so that you don't have to wait for players to enter the other team before you can join your friends. Remove equipment changing. Disable auto-finish. idk why I felt like writing all this in so much detail. Kinda just got bored :3

No, because we don't accept players from other communities. Not that we're nationalistic or anything, but TWR is a collection of records from the English community, so if someone just comes here to claim a record it's doesn't really seem fair. I know we had this issue come up before recently with Mrs.Queen and It_Is_Time_To_Win, but both of them are somewhat active members in the EN community and didn't just come here to claim records, unlike what the case with JekaMIX would be if he tried to take a record. I don't actually know if I want to keep that rule or not, so feel free to discuss.

In addition to the answers above: 2. Both Supernick and Raphael left their staff positions. 3. Shows that you are a Premium member, can be turned off in the garage ("Special" tab) 4. Your place among other players in the number of crystals you earned. More information here. 6. If you haven't played for a REALLY long time, then the newest maps are: Rio, Future, Factory, Skyscrapers (new version of Abyss). Also a reworked version of Madness was added and Canyon, Deck-9 and Magadan were removed. 7. A new column was added to display bonus of players without Premium. The old column with battle funds is still there, second from the left. As far as I know, either 1 week or 1 month of premium is given to all players, who come back after being inactive for a while.

Don't take this the wrong way. I'm not adding it because he's a chat mod, but because he beat the previous submission. I'd add Mr.Sarcastic's record if it wasn't for emrakul's post.
-
Eh... I'll take my chances. Also, that record has a "staff's affirmation" :P
