lol, people still get excited over tanki birthday?

i hope you're joking...

what is even funnier is that he is probably grinding for other phoenix augments atm typical IQ of buyers.. getting played by the developers again and again, but they'll still spend money on the game, cause why not

nah shaft healing emitters don't need any nerf, it already lacks critical damage as drawback, which makes it pretty ineffective in close combats

why are you counting the existing 141 containers as the event rewards??

new record: waiting for more than 45 minutes to enter a match lol I waited only for the sake of gaining my last missing 100 points to reach 1k, played for 5 minutes, capped 1 flag, then got out of this game won't even bother completing the 2 remaining contracts, my first matches of 2024 so horrible o.O

it takes 10-20 minutes to enter a match, after an endless loop of slow loading and getting kicked out due to inactivity Then the game freezes & crashes after 2 minutes of playing, and must refresh continuously pretty sure a lot of players are facing these issues loading indicator progresses backwards lol

obviously to sell more driver augments

Well now, f2p players will get guaranteed maximum 1 exotic per year, assuming tanki will give 300 keys over a span of 1 year or 25 per month on special missions, which I don't think they'll do because they are too greedy. Even the most expensive shop bundle gives only 290 keys for similar reasons. Battle passes are nerfed, tanki funds are also trash nowadays. So f2p players are left with mediocre nerfed copy-pasted augments

i got zero in 2023 if i remember correctly xd

big big updates to containers (keys/guaranteed drops/shiny animations/sounds), yet: 1. a f2p will only get 0-1 exotic item per year. 2. a buyer still needs to gamble money to get their desired exotic augment (basically 0% chance from a 300 containers bundle)

recruit rank?? Is that test server

@Biome Any words to say to your caring and generous developers?

Will it prevent saboteur drone mines from disappearing after dying?

Tell your fellow developers to use an open-source randomizer for the giveaway, it's as simple as that

everyone to their own conclusion nice discord bot btw, you made that?

Not sure if the event is/should even be regulated by relevant authorities, since no real money is being distributed to players, only virtual currencies holding no monetary values unlike cryptos. Majority will buy battle/elite passes with the tankoins and entries to other mini-games like arcades, and never spend any money. But a few f2p players will make their first purchase, a few rare buyers will top up 12k tankoins to buy 250 containers on new year or top up some tankoins to complete a mini-game. Even if we're talking about 1% of the 2083, that's easily 20 conversions. Now with the right targeting using data analysis, it can even go up to 5% or more. These practices are so mainstream nowadays, I would be suprised if tanki is playing fair.

I saw on one previous giveaway video that the randomizer 4000 was just a simple local html file, but I still believe there's more to it behind the scenes (unless proven otherwise). The sole objective of the tanki fund (according to me) is to convert f2p into buyers and a lot of winners are possibly targeted, and they won't even know it. The 7.6k tankoins have the possibility of luring so many players to spend real money on future events and bundles, if targeted correctly.

Every drone is unsustainable except for brutus. Even if you complete all daily/weekly/special missions/challenges, you're still at around 40% loss in crystals ROI, and you'll always lack supplies, even if you get top 3 in all battles. There are only 2 ways to sustain your supplies, use brutus or buy premium pass.

Don't be surprised if 75% of winners are targeted for future sales purposes. Nothing is regulated in this game.

Quoting youtuber Jumper who completed the mini-game: used 1380 Lollipops Spended around 140k tatnkcoins (overpriced) +4 million crystals now do the maths: $1610 for 140k tankoins $1058 for 4M crystals (if he bought using tankoins) If only 10 hardcore buyers completed the event, that's easily over 25k dollars in revenue. Hazel knows what he is doing.

Don't worry, pretty much all turrets have pulsars & status effect augments now, so they will be forced to bring new unique augments in the near future, hopefully..

The only decent event for f2p players is officially dead. Now most f2p will never have access to nice augments/skins. Nice way of saying 3/4 of the fund is trash.

Well I already tried it, missions don't recover all of the supplies consumed by these drones. The amount of supplies a player gets by completing 1 WEEK of daily + weekly + special missions gets depleted in merely hours of playing. I get top 3 in most battles with defender, so I'm already getting max rewards in battles. Max battle rewards, all daily/weekly/special missions completed, and still lacking supplies is a proof that the economy is broken for f2p players.

i'm just a casual f2p legend player, I don't complete missions, I don't participate in most events. I find it unreasonable to create/play on multiple accounts & start over I just play once in a while for fun. I have some maxed out combos & have been using my supplies accumulated over years of not/playing (since 2014) Now that my supplies (DA) are depleted with these new drone changes, I can notice how unsustainable this game is.. Funny thing is that even if you play 24/7, complete all missions like a pig, you still won't have enough supplies to survive as a f2p. The only choice is to use brutus lol or become a buyer.
