That is still a fair chunk of change considering Premium is a subscription service, whereas crystals are a one-time-buy.

Assuming you are not in Russia; if you were in Russia you might have gotten close to double that amount, quadruple if double crystal card was involved.

They do, but they are just harder to spot. ;) You can also measure it using tanks, but this would be very tedious, and not 100% accurate.

I would also like to point out that they gave the biggest discounts to the least used items. I wonder, will this set a precedent for future sales? Edit: Then again, they did have an incentive to reduce it, as they had already given us all of the aforementioned goodies (new map, battle mode, XT equipment, etc etc) So in this case I understand. But it's left a lot of players disappointed, obviously.

I would just like point out that some buyers may not be quite as "privileged" as you may think they are. You don't have to live in Africa to know what it's like to live a poor and laborious life. Some can be extremely hard-working people who come home to Tanki as a way to unwind after a stressful day. They may not have time that we do to advance through the ranks to buy new gear, and donate a few dollars here and there to supplement their career and in turn help the makers of the game that they come home to relax to. Most are simply too busy with their lives, which is especially true for older players, and I've met my fair share. It is unfair to them that the first image we conjure up of a buyer is a snooty rich teenager whose parents allow them to pay their way to the top. In fact the very term "buyer" is a pejorative. And it's unfair that tankers like you believe that them taking the option to advance quicker through the game, while in turn helping developers feed their own families, gives them somehow superior attitude, when truthfully they could be in even worse straights than you or I. Not every buyer is an OUFA, you know. Not to mention your broad generalizations of the welfare system. This whole thread just makes me sick.

For the Christmas map, will there be a 'climate change' setting, without any snow and a dead tree in the middle? :D

Also I'd just like to note that the second change here is proof that they do sometimes listen to the community!

Either A) Kits now last forever, or B) the timer was removed to make it more of a surprise. Or maybe it's a bug. Who knows? ^_^

To be honest, both sides of the argument are now resorting to "Nuh uh, YOU'RE stupid! Supplies must stay/go!" And it's giving me a headache. -_- It's no wonder Hazel-Rah left that part of the community a while ago.

Is it colour or color? Elevator or lift? Chips or crisps? In the end it all means the same thing. Just depends on who you ask. ;)

What is this about paints? I keep hearing people mentioning a future update on paints. What do they mean by that?

Increase the burn time. ;)

Right, Semyon made absolutely no mention of it in his V-log, I think it's safe to say that the days of ranking up quickly are quite over. They went the ways of the Bought Experience. :( What's next, only PRO battle features are available to Premium?

Might be a bug? :blink: Not too sure about this one.

Likely this is a result of the Premium accounts offering score multipliers. Tanki wants to make this feature even more exclusive, it seems. And we all know how experiments like these usually turn out. "If you've been wanting to get yourself an SMP, we recommend you don't miss this chance!" pretty much tells us here what the result will be. This will be a shame for the smaller players who want to quickly rank up with their friends. But it will also be a godsend to older players who've been complaining about Gissimos with little to no actual experience. What's next to become exclusive only for paying customers? PRO battle pass? We'll have to wait and see.

I've never once seen a mission for earning experience on maps like Seige, Scope, Bobriusk, Osa, Opposition, Subway, Valley, etc etc. Is this intentional? I thought that with missions developers were set to popularize maps that hardly see any players at all. Why stick with only Polygon, Sandbox, Rio, and others? Then what is the point in having these maps if there's no incentive to play on them?

Let's not start doing sales for only certain groups of people please, as it will breed resentment against them. Plus it is just plain unfair. Everybody should have a part in the celebrations!

How are low-ranked players, who barely have gotten their first M0s, supposed to compete with this?

Congratulations, Poland can into Tanki! :lol: Though out of all these other communities I certainly wasn't expecting it.

The number 13 represents bad luck. (In some cultures it's even removed entirely, as in some buildings there is no 13th floor.) Shouldn't we be having some good luck this holiday season? :lol:

No good paint against Firebird and Twins? What about Taiga? Or Inferno? Or even Atom and Urban?
