Just posting to say that making a private battle cost 500 crystals is a BAD change. It is going to cost Tanki in new players more than they hope to make in crystal purchases. I wanted my wife to try the game. She could play against me after I created a second account so that we were both beginning "recruits". Because it didn't cost crystals to play in a private battle I was willing to take the time to teach her how to control the tank and play on different maps. She said she would NOT play at all if there were other players on the map. She's not alone in that feeling. Bring back the free private battle so that new players can get a feel for the game beyond the tutorial. Tanki had existing players doing the recruiting for them with free private battles. At least bring back a free private battle for just two players, it will pay off for Tanki and tankers will be able to bring other new players into the game that are otherwise intimidated by a Death Match or Team Death Match. If not, then Tanki should be honest that it's all about making MORE money and not try to sell it as an upgrade or update; it's not.
