Since many of you have asked how the discounts are being calculated here's a page I found that explains it all exactly. Enjoy. http://tankionline.wikia.com/wiki/Discount

The math is totally off in your discounted combo offers. Total should show 324,600 instead of 491,500 (<<this is the cost of all items and I have Isida M3 already bought). Discounted at 45% it should cost 178,530. Please fix it. Thanks.

Tanki needs to realize people invest crystals into turrets/hulls/paints and micro upgrade them based on how good they perform at the moment...if Tanki keeps changing the parameters of the combos people have invested time/money in they're gonna lose customers. This is not a good business practice Tanki. Please consider refunding people crystals so they can choose their new weapon and upgrade that instead, after you're done changing stuff of course.

I have once created a thread about how there are cheaters in tanki and always have been. I described a tank I encountered on a test server going over the edge of the map and shooting people from underneath jumping up and down in the air. The mod quickly locked the thread arguing there is no hacks in tanki and that things like that only happen on a test because there are no countermeasures there. Well, it was a lie. I have encountered that same over the edge jumping up and down hack on live servers yesterday with a guy using a ditch in the map instead of the edge. Locking threads like mine in the past won't make the problem go away. I am surprised this thread is still open. Back in the day hacks were much much more of a problem then today. But tanki sure isn't hack free.

I just hope you will issue a refund to all players once you're done constantly tweaking all the parameters. I didn't buy the weapon because of the looks but because of how it stacks up against the competition. If I knew what I know now I would have picked other weapons. Thanks for making me waste crystals. Now I have weapons in the garage that will be collecting dust because of YOUR changes and NOT MY bad decision making.

I was considering submitting my entry...but was too lazy to create anything. Seeing how only a handful of people got a reward, I am glad I was lazy :P

I just remembered why I left this game 2 years ago. I was just on a RU1 server in a polygon DM battle and doing great in my isida hornet...joined late, got up to the first spot with 2 minutes til battle end....and then right before the timer ends I get kicked out of the map (not the game) with a message "Foul Play discovered - You've been disconnected". Obviously someone kicked me out to get some of my hard earned crystals... Either a hack, or someone abusing his admin powers. I remember that being an issue back then too. Before you tell me there are no hacks in this game...I was on a test server when it was open to everyone, and one guy jumped over the edge of the map and was bouncing up and down in the air under the map shooting people from underneath in his smoky. Not going to spend much time in this game....it was hacker infested when I left...it seems to be better now...but they are still here.

Tanki. First off thank you for listening to your players, and taking their opinions into consideration when making game changing decisions. While I would rather have crystal boxes still in the game, just at a lower ratio (for example 1.5 battle fund and .5 crystal falls), I don't have a problem with going for 2x battle funds and no crystals falling at all. What does need further revision though is the gold box drop. I personally really liked the idea of a gold box falling unexpectedly. That way everyone had a chance of getting a gold box by being in the right place in the right time. It could have been further improved by adding additional drop points. That way people wouldn't just camp close to the expected drop zones and wait for them to fall. The way it is now is not well balanced. We all know that, in a large group of tanks, higher profiled tanks (mammoth and dictator) have an advantage over lower tanks. Now, 20 seconds might be good on big maps where more time is required to get to the drop zone. That way tanks speed comes into the calculation and balances out those tanks with higher hulls. On small maps like polygon, 20 seconds is too much time, because even slow tanks have enough time to get to any drop zone on the map, hence speed isn't relevant. The major factor that determines who gets the gold box is the height of the tank. Please consider this in any future changes. PS. Also people who lag have an ability to get on top of other tanks. Can something be done to prevent this from happening? Thank you for listening to your player base. Keep up the good work!

^ pretty much covers how I feel about the changes. Isida stream is way too wide and cartoonish. Keeping the old one and adding particles around it would look much better. Railgun is good because with the wavy pattern it's easier to understand why it still hits you even when it slightly misses.

Tanki should give players the ability to buy gun modifications two ranks (or more) before it becomes available and make them unable to use it until they reach the required rank.

got mine, thanks for info!!!

Please explain what you mean by "wrong", so that we can help you understand it better.

New formula or not the total fund should have been increased by 10 just like the prices where. Only distribution of the total fund should have been more fair to players placing lower in a match. Nobody has informed us that this was what the update would change. Therefore it is fair to say that players have been LIED to, and no official statement on that matter has been given to us by Bruce or any other dev. The way I see it, rebalance was enough to bring Tanki's revenues up since people now had twice as many hulls and guns to get and upgrade to M3. Was that enough for the devs? No. They have gone a step further, and increased the prices of the M3 upgrades significantly making reaching the fully upgraded garage that much more difficult. Was that enough for Tanki? Nooooooo. They went ahead and decresed the fund accumulation speed making it close to impossible to get best guns and hulls. I for one am not a sucker. That is why you no longer see me playing this game.

This is a lie i have tested a moscow server with pingtest and i got 0% pocket loss and ping of 170. I live in USA.

Good idea IMO. I was thinking the same thing when I a lower level and was trying to decide which combo to pick.
