Now it's clear. Tankcoins have in essence raised prices. Some of you say oh well, it offsets the coins you get in MM battles. Wrong answer! We should not have to absorb any additional cost because of what is possible for one to do in the game. I don't play MM because it forces players to play according to tanki. I still say that was and remains another nail in the coffin in this game. What is happening to this game??? Why can't you people leave the game in a playable and likeable fashion instead? This coin thing has ruined it for me. I have supplies left and when they are gone so am I. The fact is, you guys have found a clever way to rip people off. Like I said, it's predatory. It's one thing if the value of the batteries and supplies were of the same value of the tankcoins. But after the math, it's clearly more expensive. I actually found the prices expensive as it is already before the increase and now you guys want to up the prices even more. Makes no sense. Before long, you'll have to pay to just login. Then, to make matters worse, people wont be able to make enough of these so called coins to buy anything of value except that they play for an extensive long period of time effectively waste their life away. This update will ruin it for a great deal of people. You devs can have this game. You don't really listen to players anyway. If going from over 100,000 players down to less than 18,000 doesn't tell you that you're doing something wrong I don't know what will. I enjoyed the wasted moments but it's time to bounce.

My question about these tankcoins...I live in America and normally when paying it says USD. Now, batteries are 1500 tankcoins. Is that the same as $8.99? Supplies are normally $19.99 or something. Now it's 2500 tankcoins. I have no idea what the value is of these items we are purchasing anymore. I'm not paying double for anything so it would be good to put the USD next to the tankcoins value so people know what they are actually paying in the language they understand. The world doesn't run on tankcoins. Can someone break that down? Until then, I can't in good conscience buy this fake currency for real money when I have no idea what the value is. You guys have to be more open and upfront about things like this. This feels predatory because you can easily hike prices through the roof because it's disguised as tankcoins. So make a sheet that shows the value in tankcoins and currency people are used to paying. If I can see what I'm paying, then I don't mind..........as much.

Artificial Intelligence/Merge/Hulls
lasttruesoldjaleft replied to lasttruesoldjaleft in Artificial Intelligence/Merge/Hulls Archive
It would be nice to have AI tanks in the game. The number of players have decreased quite a bit and having AI tanks that you can play against would be nice and keep the game interesting. They can spawn in and actually fight. Players could still get crystals and points. Of course, the AI tank could leave once a player comes in the game. The better option is to allow players to create games and determine the number of AI tanks they want to fight. In either case, AI tanks could also be part of the primary current battles. My other idea is very interesting. It would be nice if two tanks on the same team could merge into one. I don't how that would work but it would be interesting to see. One controls the driving the other controls the shooting. Hulls need a major upgrade. I think in terms of toughness, the hulls are too weak. No hull should be destroyed by any tank in the game with one shot. As a standard, larger hulls should come in at least with 8000 health and the others increased according to their respective size. Further, when it comes to strength, I don't like it when a tiny wasp hull can push or at least impede a tank 10 times its size like titan or mammoth. That makes no sense to me. The larger hulls should be able to demonstrate the muscle they have. Abusers could be removed by a moderator if another people vote if you have revengeful players or moles that come in to push team mates around. Finally, I get the feeling that tanki really needs to get creative to get this game off life support. I enjoy playing but find myself playing less and less and this is because there aren't too many people playing anymore. Are you listening tanki??? -
Valid 7 module slots, but gradually reducing protection value
lasttruesoldjaleft replied to OKDad70 in Ideas and Suggestions
You don't need to reduce or nerf modules or come up with a system that basically reduce them if you slot more than a few. The idea here is that there are too many turrets in the game to only have 3 mods. We just need to be able to carry more. It's a more than reasonable request I think. I don't understand how the developers keep coming out with more and more turrets and expect players to be comfortable with only 3 mods. That was then when you only had a few turrets. Now, it's a different game. DO something about this before the numbers continue to dwindle down to ZERO. -
Valid 3 extra module slots that will only work in DM or JGR
lasttruesoldjaleft replied to GuidoFawkes in Ideas and Suggestions
We are getting so many turrets in the game. Right now, we have only 3 slots for modules. It seems unfair to have a million turrets and only the ability to protect yourself from 3. I think now, we need at least 6 protection mods. Practically everyone who plays can agree that this needs to happen ASAP. It's hard to survive in any game when there are so many different turrets but not enough mods that we can use to protect ourselves. I've gone into battles when there were practically every turret in the game on the other side. My hope is that you guys will look into this and make changes that reflect the growing number of turrets. We need this as players. -
Ignoring and Unignoring a player
lasttruesoldjaleft replied to lasttruesoldjaleft in Ignoring and Unignoring a player Archive
When ignoring a player you no longer have to read their nasty messages. I know how to do this. The problem is that there are times when you want to give a person another chance. How do you reverse the ignore so you can chat with that player again? -
What alteration balance changes are coming? Anything you can share?
-
So let me be clear, I actually like these alterations for my turret. Give the developers some credit. They have been working behind the scenes to make the game more interesting. I like how it has changed game play. Honesty, I can't believe I'm saying something nice for a change (Devs feel free to give me crystals while I hold my breath waiting :-) . I say enjoy these while they last. No one like change but we have to remain flexible.
-
Just tested the alterations. Not bad at all. I actually like it. Just don't ruin it!
-
On these alterations. Not totally bad. I like Hammer but Hammer is useless without slugger. You guys reduced the pellets to about nil back in the day so in many cases, only 1 or 2 pellets hit. This is why I have to use 5 shots and slugger. Why not an alteration to give Hammer more range? Slugger for Hammer should be standard anyway since the reduction in pellets makes the turret almost useless. I don't like the idea of having only one alteration either. Some turrets need 2. Who's idea is that? At the very least, we should be able to select two. What are you guys smoking? What are you drinking? Now, I have an extreme spread on a Hammer which does little to no damage without the two alterations. Also, when are you going to increase the strength of the hulls? The strength of hulls need to be adjusted too. There are tiny hulls like hornet, wasp, and viking that can push titan and mammoth. That makes no sense! That's like a ant pushing an elephant. Larger tanks should not be easily pushed by smaller/lighter tanks. Hulls strength must be increased to match the changes in killer alterations. Alterations make great game play but you guys need to stop reducing what you give. We NEED at least 2 alterations. No exceptions!

Wow! This is sad...so sad as our President Trump would say. I don't like the idea of this MM system regardless of what many are saying. When people can't choose, it becomes a dictatorship. When people pay (I have been a buyer for 4 people), it's like their right to vote and to be heard. I'm not discounting those who don't. But the fact is, when you put money into any establishment, the establishment exist because of you. Take the money away and the establishment goes into bankruptcy and eventually closes. Nonetheless, I for one prefer Highways as a Map. I will often wait in line and that's due to the server merge which was a bad idea too. I like the idea of looking at the battles I wanted to go in. You guys want to address every complaint. There's just no way to address each concern people have like mults. I don't care about mults. It happens in every game...so what. What I do care about is having choices. Now, I have to wait, get in line and wait for some random map? There has been and continues to be way too many changes in this game. I should add that this is more than a game for those of us who have met some really good people. For us, it's a community. Communities will welcome change but not destructive ones like putting a highway through the center of it which is what this is. Some of you think this is good because it's changing with the times. Ok, here's two examples. First, my example of changing with the times means going from having a model T without headlights to having a newer model with headlights. The newer model kept all the good things about the original model T and added additional features to improve it. People can now drive at night and be safer on the road due to the lights. Now, here's the example for those of you who like this update. You have the model T with the headlights but decide that headlights should be removed so as not to blind other drivers. You got so many complaints from the two or three drivers that got blinded by another driver that you felt it was time to address it. It doesn't matter that the majority of drivers are pleading that the headlights not be removed, you proceed to have them removed anyway. Now drivers drive at night without the headlights and as a result, fatalities have increased. Sales have drastically decreased. But still, you claim the change is good. In this game, players should be able to choose a map, plain and simple. The so called benefits of the MM system are not benefits. Instead, it's force feeding and that's no benefit as far as I am concerned. If I go to the local grocery store, I don't want to be forced to buy what's on the shelf if it's not what I want. I like Cheerios but the store is telling me I WILL buy Corn Flakes and like it!!! I got news for that store...NO I WON'T. That won't work in a democracy. But I understand this game is in Russia, so forcing people, denying them choices may be a way of life. In that sense, this all makes sense. But when the smoke clears, I believe many people, beginning with me and my sons, will simply go elsewhere. I did like this game at one time...still do in some ways. However, force feeding isn't my cup of tea. Telling me I will eventually like what you're forcing me to eat when I clearly told you I don't like it or have a taste for it won't make me like it later. It doesn't make things better...only bitter. I think it's time to go.

I know a lot has already been said about match making so I'm not trying to resurrect a dead horse. I simply want to share my thoughts. First, it's a horrible idea. It will ruin game play and if you guys think the numbers are low now, just go ahead with this update and you'll discover your bottom line will hit rock bottom. Truthfully, I was waiting for an update that would give me a reason to putting so much time in a game that doesn't deserve it. Jesus is coming back soon and honestly, I need to put more time in getting ready and being prepared. In either case, Match making makes no sense. You guys have nothing better to do than continue this downward spiral. Nothing about this makes sense. Players NEED to be able to select their own maps to play. That's what makes it fun. You guys cannot address every single concern. Molts happen in every game. So what! Forcing people to play a certain way removes the play-ability the game was designed for. How many times must I go in and leave a battle in order to find the one battle I like to go in with an update like this? The thought is frustrating. How will this affect the friends list? Usually, I can find a friend and click the map he's on and be taken there. But with this system, it's likely that will change too. I just shake my head because the game is a disaster.. It is a disaster. The very least, you could have allowed pro battles to be free like back in the day. You guys can't give any thing to the players if it benefits them in any way. You love money so much that you're willing to diminish the game for the few remaining fools who will praise and worship your every decision. You guys don't listen to the players and like they say on Shark Tank..."For That Reason, I'm Out". Yes, after this update I'm calling it quits. You can't complete daily missions...unless you're willing to accept this bull. What was wrong with completing missions like in times past? Back in the day, players completed it in the "free" pro battles. But again, you guys sit around thinking about how much more you can squeeze players without giving anything back. The module change is a joke. People put a lot of time and money updating modules. It's one thing if you compensate people for these crystals but you guys are not going to do that. You will continue to take and demand more cash from players. This is fraud in a technical sense. You guys are Russian thugs because you know you can continue to "steal" from players without so much as a lawsuit from another country. I like some things but the things that matter are no longer there. At some point, when will you listen to the players? What is wrong with allowing players to create battles without having to earn thousands of crystals? What's wrong with listening to the players? (Don't say you do) No matter how you try to justify "why" you keep with these thoughtless updates....you cannot ignore the low numbers lol. They tell the truth! The game is on its way out and I believe you all know it. This game had such a high number of players back in the day. I signed in one day years ago and found well over 100,000 players! What the heck happened? Now, 20 plus thousand is a struggle. Well, the answer is simple...updates like this. I really liked this game. I don't anymore. Players you all have the power but the few idiots who keep saying it's a good update were born yesterday and don't understand. Yet, out of 1 million people who vote "NO" against an update like this one, the one fool that says they like it is the one fool you guys listen too. I could say more but there's better use of my time. Anyway, I have premium until mid June and I'll sign in to get those crumbs. After it runs out...I'm done. To all my friends I want you to know it's been a pleasure.
-
Why can't the players make the halloween map like in times past? Doesn't make sense to have a map and no one can create it. You guys are ridiculous. I wish the original owners of the game didn't sell out because the new people are runining it.
-
They probably don't have the balls enough to answer the question. They have screwed up this game with this update. Might as well remove the repair as it's useless anyway. The drugs are depleting way to fast. This is crazy. The best way to deal with them is to NOT buy anything else and let's see if they can pay the bills with monopoly money. Quite frankly, they can close this game down today and I would be just fine.
-
I haven't played this game since the update and don't intend to until/unless the supplies are changed back from 30 seconds to 40. My question is when will this be addressed? Repair is absolutely useless. Why would you mess with such a critical component of the game? I will not spend another red cent on this game if this isn't addressed in a manner satisfactorily to the players. Learn how to leave a good thing alone and address things like lag. I doubt you all intend to address the supplies issue. What a shame. But I don't have to play and that's ok too. I'll check back from time to time. My 3 sons know that I will no longer purchase them supplies or anything else. They don't like it but as I told them...you guys can change all that. Otherwise, all bets are off.

Patch Update #469 - Released 12th July 2017
lasttruesoldjaleft replied to theFiringHand in News Archive
Well spoken again by another seasoned player. No need to say more. The developers know how to do one thing right and that is up a good thing! Sadly, it's almost as if they enjoy it when players tell them they hate a particular update. They see it as an opportunity to make us accept their view. All this force spoon feeding won't work anymore. I'm done with this STUPID game with it's just as stupid developers who refuse to listen to the players!!!! -
Patch Update #469 - Released 12th July 2017
lasttruesoldjaleft replied to theFiringHand in News Archive
I agree. The update is freaking terrible. But again, the devs don't listen! Bunch of freaking idiots! You guys have ruined this game with this stupid update. Why the hell did you take a poll if you had no intentions on listening anyway? But then, you never listen. Well, here's my plan...I will NEVER put another cent into this game. Told my sons today that no more supplies. I explained to them the reasons why. They are young but they hate the update as well. I'm done with this game. I'll check in from time to time to see if you all have regained your senses. I don't expect that to be the case. But no more money from me and you can check my name to see I'm not lying. You guys make me SICK!!!!!!!!! -
Patch Update #469 - Released 12th July 2017
lasttruesoldjaleft replied to theFiringHand in News Archive
Don't believe a word of this! THIS IS A BAD UPDATE! The overwhelming responses is that this IS a bad update for the numerous reasons given. NOT GOOD WORK by these developers. This update is bad for business! I'm not paying for anything else because you guys DON'T listen to the players. The occasional idiots who claim stupid updates are good are the only ones that seem to have voices. -
Patch Update #469 - Released 12th July 2017
lasttruesoldjaleft replied to theFiringHand in News Archive
I will say that I like the animation but that's about it. Zero supplies are not necessary in this game. The timing is terrible. It looks as if buyers will have to come out of pocket even more. I don't like the update. You developers love listening to noob players who thinks every update is so cool. Experienced players know this update is terrible. The timing on these supplies need to return to the original time. I've played with these changes and it's terrible. If you want to keep this update then change the times for these supplies. The repair sucks really bad. It doesn't do what it's supposed to do. In fact, it doesn't seem to repair effectively like in times past. The double armor takes forever. By the time it gets ready, you're blown to bits. What did you guys do??? You messed it up...AGAIN! -
48hrs experiment with supplies this weekend
lasttruesoldjaleft replied to theFiringHand in News Archive
There's no need to do this. Players can go into battles without supplies. So what's the issue here? You developers should stop trying to make the game "fair". This is war! And in war there's no such thing as fairness. This will NOT be a good update. Why can't you guys leave a good thing alone??? Why???? Don't you guys want people to buy supplies???? With this, supplies purchased will last for an eternity! But again, there's no need when the battles are already so configurable. So many people complain about "druggers" when they don't have to enter the game. If a battle allow for drugs/supplies why come in and complain. Simply go into another battle without drugs or create your own. This game is designed to allow you to play your way. I came into a battle on highways and there was a shaft waiting already. I can't use my purchased double armor to give myself a chance to hide behind a concrete slab??? That's not practical or tactical. So again, DONT go through with this update. The game allows for gamers to create battles they want to play in. This would be so senseless. What are you guys drinking??? -
Patch Update #441 - Changes to Isida, Hammer and Shaft, and other changes
lasttruesoldjaleft replied to theFiringHand in News Archive
Ok...I have to admit that the changes with Hammer aren't bad so I apologize to the developers. Taking off the alterations I can see a big difference. The speed is much better. So again, good job. Just don't mess with Hammer anymore! Hey, we should be as willing to admit we're wrong as we are to complain. Developers consider the players please. But good on Hammer! -
Patch Update #441 - Changes to Isida, Hammer and Shaft, and other changes
lasttruesoldjaleft replied to theFiringHand in News Archive
I wasn't going to respond but I need to say a few things. Hammer is wayyyyyyy too slow. Keep in mind that hammer doesn't have endless ammo like the Vulcan that blew me up a few minutes ago. I'm sitting there waiting for a reload and gets blowed up. All the while the dummy is firing away. Is that the way this is suppose to work? It doesn't take skill to hold down the spacebar. But it did take 7 seconds appr for the clip to reload. That's too long and unrealistic. The game just isn't as fun as it used to be when I first started playing. I had no idea that the game would be under constant development. If I did, I would never have paid into it. I'm no longer able to support this fiasco financially. Until there is some stability in this game I'm done. And not being funny but the developers look like little kids themselves. So maybe part of all these changes are the results of restless children. You developers need to keep in mind that changing the tanks isn't always necessary. That's why modules are available. That's why there are supplies. I agree with other posters that ask "why not ask us?" You all bypass the players...no real sense of business because in America the dollar is controlled by the people and when people leave the dollars leave. The problem with tanki is that there are way too many people who pump money into it. This supports more nonsense like these updates. During the Civil Rights years in America, white Americans finally woke up to the idea of segregation when the African Americans stopped paying to ride second and third class on their buses. The same idea/principle is true here. Keep paying and they will NEVER listen. You will always be viewed as a second/third class gamer who means nothing and this is whether you pay or not. Stop paying and suddenly, you have a voice and are considered worthy of their time and attention. But to be fair I have enjoyed the game. It's not all bad. But there are some things that need to addressed and it begins by listening to the gamers. Would you guys consider selling to an American buyer? I'm interested. -
Review [Special] The Game Balance Update
lasttruesoldjaleft replied to GoldRock in Newspaper Archive
Well, once again when I thought it couldn't get worse it does. Guys and I'm talking to the developers, what are you all doing? I mean, really, what are you guys thinking? This is NOT a good update. All I see is pure greed off the backs of people who probably don't mind paying but are tired of all the changes that make what we've paid into this game mean nothing. What I know, is that I cannot in good faith continue to support this game. I admit that I liked the game a great deal when my son introduced me to this game. When I first started playing I became addicted instantly. Over these few months, all that has changed. It's not about us the player anymore. It's about the money hungry TO developers. TO appears to be no different from the others who started out valuing their customers but when they got bigger so did their ego's. So much for humble beginnings. It makes no sense to me. And the only ones who will like this update have never really played this game that long. No matter, I'm just voicing my opinion. TO isn't going to listen to us anyway. I can't speak for everyone else but my days of playing are coming to a rapid close. I've decided not to make anymore purchases in this game. TO is going to lose a lot of people but honestly, they don't care. They don't care about you spending your hard earned money as long as you give it to them. So what if they give you the old bait and switch. This game has a lot of potential or should I say had? I took off from playing for almost a week only to come back to discover another change on the horizon. Wow...wow is all I can say as I sit here and shake my head. It will pay if TO will listen to the people that pays their bills for a change. Like one poster said, more time should be spent on making the game better in terms of the lag. Make the game better through better/new maps. I have been killed quite a few times because the lag is horrible...so much so I had to leave the game. I've enjoyed the time I spent but I'm basically done. I've met some good friends whose real names I don't know. Sadly, when I'm done, I probably wont talk to them again. TO you guys are losing it. You guys are ruining a good thing. But I don't have to spend another dime on the 3 accounts I pay for. So go ahead with your changes. I hope someone else learns from your mistakes and make a better game. This update will seal TO's death as a premier game. Veteran players, time to look elsewhere where our voices will be heard.
