Discuss the release 1.78.0 about the bonus boxes

[r_almighty010 872]

Hello!

 

Today, April 26, came out the release 1.78.0. The information about the release is in the topic updates.

 

And now we'll talk about the bonus boxes.

From this day, the logic of the falling of (crystals, consumables, gold) bonus boxes has changed.

 

-Now, crystal boxes drop constantly and not like in the past that every 6 crystals of the fund a certain amount crystals would fall at once*.

-Bonus boxes (first aid kit, double damage, double armor, nitro) will fall at random intervals without reference to time and will not fall all at once.*

-And of course the "gold" box. Gold will not drop at 700, as it was before. Now the "gold" may fall at any point in the game. During testing the probability equation, the "gold" box fell with the fund at 800 , and at 600, and even at 30, and at 1100.*

- The mechanism brings us to that the crystals, and gold bonuses, on average, will fall as much as before, but more or less frequently - now depends only on luck, as it depends on probability.

All these changes were introduced with the boxes in order to completely prevent the movement of "gold diggers". In addition, we strive to make all these "bonuses" more "bonus" for example the Kinder Egg - if it was written on the package which toy was inside, its popularity would have slipped to a minimum.

 

I propose we this discuss right here.

Whilst this will be popular among most people - I think - one of the funnest aspects of Tanki, the push and shove for gold, has been removed. The gold was one of the things which separated tanki from other online games, and which has now been removed. :thumbdown: Not a good update. And for anyone who thinks I'm only saying this because I'm good at catching gold, I'm not. I must have seen about 30 in my time but have not yet got one.. I still find battling for gold a fun exercise and one which has been removed for no real reason.

Yes there is an interesting screenshot done by on of us tankmen

 

 

Gold at a battle fund of 16. Even the so called noobs will get bonuses from now on. Gone are the days where the gold diggers come in just for the gold and deserting their team after the box falls. Now the main aim of the game will be fully felt, "the battle fund".

wow cool :D

 

i like tanki online so much :mrgreen:

 

tanks at the maker of tanki :mrgreen::mrgreen::mrgreen:

[cheese3000 23]

great update, but, will the gold box still come about 700 after the first fall?

if not, then you could have 5 dropping one after another, which would just be stupid.

also, with normal crystalls, will they drop at a 1 increase in the battle fund, or just drop continuesly, without regard to the battle fund?

if they arent connected to the battle fund, then what is to stop a person making a 1 player game and picking up loads of crystalls?

apart from that, i like it :D

hmm, i just thought, wont this hugely unbalance low ranks, a lucky/pro low rank will get a lot of gold boxes, and at that rank will be able to afford upgrades people around him wont.

and, with the better hulls/weapons, he would then get even more gold boxes, unbalancing it even more, and it would just go on and on.......

[Crusader 198]

No this is bad!!! Make the gold box back as normal.

Actually thats the whole point even in low ranks. Those who play the most have a high probability of running into most gold boxes, than harvesters that enter the battle at battle fund 690 to get the gold and leave.

Justice is unavoidable this time.

I agree. Part of the fun of Tanki was the gold rush at 700 battle fund..

[Crusader 198]

And people say that now there won't be any drugging M3 freezes and M3 mammoths but that is not true. Now its even worse! The Druggers are there the WHOLE time until the gold falls and that might be at 1100.

[Ranger7 75]

I disagree. I like this update. I never hunted gold though, I always just played. I could never get gold with all those drugging ppl in game. Though I understand alot of you are disappointed, I halfway like it. Maybe gold could fall on 700, plus falling randomly? Ranger

[GENERATOR2142 17]

Sound cool! no more gold diggers "ruining" the games and now everybody has a change of getting it!

Great job!

I like that idea ;)

I hope I got luck on my side... :P :lol:

For the most part, I like this update. Yes, we can't expect the gold box at a specific time and I gotta admit, I do look for battles that are around 650-700 fund battles and this update isn't too good for gold hunters. But how many times were you in a long game and after gold falls, everyone deserts you? People can now expect the gold to fall at any time and not come at a certain time. Also, I like the update about when the supplies fall. For example, in no supply battles where drops are allowed, all 4 drugs won't come at the same time so you don't have to deal with people having all 3 drugs at once in a no supply battle. Also, it'll help identify the smart druggers who don't want to be caught drugging and start a drug war. I think this update will be good. And I hope if more than 90% of the players don't like the update that it could be changed back...? :hunf:

YES, That is me! I was the one tankman.

and now i got a gold box, by 474.

But that was the only one that fell.

No more in that level which lasted for 805 battlefund.

 

Nice !
