Thanks for explaining, Wasp. I guess the game calls for a real league system, if only player numbers weren't so low. People sitting around, not participating, but trying to only fulfil their missions with minmal effort sounds a lot like people's workplace behaviour when they find their work either boring and useless or overwhelming. Putting people in groups where their competitors are not overwhelmingly better, but where the margin is so narrow that you can think to yourself "with a little more effort, I can be better than my opponent" would, psychologically thinking, be a better idea than cramming them in battles with players five ranks above them and a ton of equipment that they bought. I tend to feel the creators of this game want to, hm, "educate" the players by trying to impose more work and longer missions in order for players to have to spend more time on the game. I think there is a flaw here. See, if I try to do that in the workplace, that is, if I tell my employees "guys, I want you to work harder, so I will give you more tedious tasks that take five times as long to complete", I will not be lookig at a merry crew happily working away, but I will look at a bunch of unhappy, dreary people that curse me for my crappy leadership skills. Hm, sounds familiar? I don't know much about how things are in Russia, but for sure where I'm from you have a hard time making people spend money on things that they do not enjoy. And if you make things less enjoyable for them, people in my country will enjoy them less, too, and accordingly find something better to do with their time. *Especially* if it is a leisure time activity that you do not earn money from, but spend time or money (or both) on. It sounds very alien to me to tell people "you guys are not spending enough time and moneyon this game. We think you should have to work harder for your enjoyment, folks, so we will raise the bar some". Don't you scare away people like that? But then, what do I know how people tick somewhere else than where I live?

What, if I may ask, is "multing"?

Whatever you say comrade language police.Oh,you are still a drugger though.

Great matches. *facepalm* The update blows. Let's see if the community passes this resilience test,too.

The garage I will sue: "Here's your car back. Well, it's not your car anymore, really. You didn't ask for it, but we fiddled with it. You'll notice some changes. We don't know how it'll behave though - we only ran a test drive on our premises at veeeery low speed. Btw. NO - you CANNOT have your old car back. We didn't like it."

Yeah - right. I forgot we're playing a beta version. Thank god we're not asked to pay for this. I was just imagining what car manufacturing must be like where you guys live. "Please have patience with your car manufacturer. Everything you are complaining about - lack of tires, no gears, car running backwards when you want to go forward - will be taken care of in due time. We couldn't be bothered to look into that before we sold you the car. But hey! Just try not to hit any pedestrians for now! Drive safely!"

Welcome to cloudcuckooland where things are improving every day because the developers are exactly giving the players what they have been asking for. Finally, we can stop the daily demonstrations in Perm, and I can roll up my posters reading "I want to have to buy a pro pass!" and "Don't give me any choices!" :lol: :lol: :lol: Oooh, darn, what is this? A nosebleed? Must be high blood pressure! :blink: :blink: :blink: :blink:

C'mon - who needs more than 1:45 in the bathroom? Probably goes to show that the more manly Russian concept of bathroom hygiene is also way more efficient than the Western way, using TP, washing hands and all that effeminate nonsense. :D :D :D :lol:

LOL

You are right. I suspect the master plan behind all this is to get us all, who are wasting our time (and some even their money, apparently) on this game, to spend more time in (and money on) the so-called real world we have been neglecting for too long.

Honestly? I cannot even begin to tell you how happy I am to finally see my Hunter become a feebler, and now even slower version of Viking. Thank you very much. You really make my day, Soviets. As though people hadn't laughed at me enough for playing Hunter even before this ... compost. Each and every morning I wake up happy not to have spent any real currency on this game. When the new update hits, I'll take some of my enormous savings and light a few candles in the church down the street in honour of the Higher Being I worship to have enlightened me not to spend my worldly fortunes on the works of fools, and, what is more, unreliable and uncalculable fools. Talk about Noam Chomsky's concern with the unaccountability of businesses. Right here you have it.

And they say that reading is a prerequisite for writing... :D :D :D

Best of luck, Mr. Kirov. Live long and prosper!

Please ... please ... NO siren :wacko: :blink: Pretty please with whipped cream on top! :unsure:

And why would that be if these were only insensitive data.

Let's wait how many will wail if they are foolish enough to have a traceable connection between their profile and their facebook account. I'd love the info who played how much if I were a school principal, an employer, a spouse, an addiction therapist ... i therefore disagree with people who think there were no sensitive data in the reports. Please, for those who wish, give us the option to make the data only available to people who are currently logged in as tanki users either in the game or the forum. Please. Pretty please with whipped cream and a cherry on top.
