There have been many 50% MU sales since the MU system changed.

Haven’t seen a single container drop. :( Not a big deal to me though since I don’t catch many golds anyway. The 25% MU sale is kinda nice, though, because it let me put in some foundation MUs on equipment I generally ignore during 50% sales. I’m talking about you, Hunter, Shaft, and those rarely used Modules. Next 50% I will have the following M4 -Firebird -Isida -Striker -Vulcan

Kungur RGB is kind of a waste of space. All of the action takes place on the center bridge where the ball drops and on either end where the goals are. The rest of this vast map is a ghost town in this mode. .

Rugby is a lot of fun but I agree that there need to be a more visible marker to tell players where the ball is after it’s been picked up by a player. I also agree that a player hiding with the ball is a problem which needs to be addressed. I saw that in a couple of the battles I played today. A shot clock is a good idea but the time limit has to be map dependent in order to work. And by the way, Tanki, please fix Assault Mode. In it’s current form it’s not going to last much longer. .

Not seeing many containers drop either. Seeing plenty of gold though.

I hope not. Thank you.

I’m cynical. This makes my chances of getting Emerald or Frost from containers a lot lower.

I’ve seen many players with this paint, so getting it from containers and or code must be doable. I suspect the container probability was increased and has since been reduced, to spur more container sales for real money.

Finish off my last MU on Firebird, Striker, Isida, and Vulcan making them all M4. Next sale, baby. Finish off MUs on the rest of my turrets and hulls. Depends on how many MU sales we get but should be doable this year. 50% prot on Modules? Nah, not worth the crystals. Maybe Lion T-B but not the rest of them. Keep buying garage paints on 50% sales, least expensive first, so that containers will give me better garage paints.

Remember “mission rewards will remain increased” So, I read “XT will remain available for purchase until skins are released” to mean that after skins are released, we will no longer be able to buy for crystals. Prove me wrong... please...

I applaud Alterniva for their transparency in letting us know Rugby is delayed due to glitches.

I think Containers have made the game fun and interesting again. XT Skins seem to be generating a lot of buzz too. I might have to change my vote from about the same to yes.

when I die a full second BEFORE the Magnum shell hits me. Don’t tell me this is lag - my tank exploding didn’t lag, so why does the Mag shell? You can’t lag only part of a game connection. I call BS.

I won’t speak for those people, but again IMO a refund is warranted. Profound value will be lost in the conversion.

Thank you both for your responses :D

IMO the only viable option regarding XT MUs is to fully refund those crystals to players. Any attempt to merge XT MUs with standard equipment will lead to disaster and rage. The economics just don’t make sense. Since XT MUs never went on sale, you cannot equate an XT MU to a Standard MU which may or may not have been purchased on sale. Please don’t try this. Just do the right thing and refund those XT MU crystals because you know exactly how many to give back.

I agree. For the game, I think moving XT Skins to the Shop is the right thing to do. Price them appropriately, make XTs for all equipment, and maybe make them upgradable (also only with real money) and this could be a lucrative revenue stream. The Premium requirement also meant most players already paid at least something for their XTs. Those who got theirs from missions are an extreme minority (but of course are out there). For my part, I am happy with my Viking XT. I’m eyeballing Thunder XT, but not eagerly enough to rush into a purchase before the change. One XT is enough for now. I’ve still got garage MUs to work on. Thanks for your reply.

Can you post your current result in the OP? This will save us from paving through this thread. Thanks in advance.

Thank you - but I think that is too rosy a picture. Software doesn’t work that way. Rather software defers expensive operations such as a garage check as long as possible to preserve server performance. Since supplies, gold, crystals, and premium do not care about what you have in your garage, the algorithm almost certainly does NOT perform a garage check before determining which type of container you have opened. Only afterward do the Shop Paint, Legendary, Paints, and Garage Paint containers evaluate what you already have. Is there an exception handler for no more paints of this type available to reward? If so, what is the result? Can I get official clarification?

Thank you, Viking4s. Experience also tells me that XT Skins will probably be Shop only. I also expect pricing to be in line with the animated paints - I.e. expensive. My advice to players is to grind away or take any other steps like buying Premium and maybe even some gap-filling crystals for real money so that you can obtain that coveted XT - BEFORE the Skin change. History (*cough* Paint Separation Update) has taught me that once this kind of change is made, there is no going back. .

Will XT Skins be available in the Garage for purchase with crystals? Or will XT Skins be another Shop-exclusive, only for purchase with real money? I have suspicions but would like an official answer.

There are plenty of topics about this. You might want to look deeper in the archives. In general, the tips are. 1 - have a long term plan. This includes things like kit purchases, what equipment you want to use, and ultimately what you want your tank to look like as you enter and progress though the M3 ranks to Legend and beyond. 2 - execute every purchase decision toward that plan. Don’t get distracted by the new hotness or feature of the century of the week. This means not spending, duh. If it’s a kit, know when you can buy buy rank and when you can afford it. If those two don’t line up, rethink your plan. 3 - do your missions and use your free change to increase your chances of getting a crystal mission. Keep your mission chains going. 4 - kits notwithstanding, buy equipment on sales. There are plenty of sales, even 50% off ones, so be patient. 5 - consider Premium. The double battle fund, 50% additional XP, and daily bonus make reaching financial goals easier. 6 - consider buying with real money, but only as a last resort. Buy only during shop events such as bonus or discounts.

Regarding Garage paints, if in theory I buy all the garage paints (setting aside the stupidity of doing so), what will the container system do if it picks a garage paint as a reward but can’t find a paint I don’t already have? Upgrade to shop paint? Downgrade to supplies? Re-select at random? Give null container? Critical error?

You see something falling from the sky and run TOWARD it
