Opinions on the rebalance.

[Theawesomecooldude 108]

I would love to rank for something.

and that feeling, when I buy viking and thunder M3 again... ohh my.

 

 

This makes me wondering; if you reach the last rank to get M3 weapons... you probably have a lot of crystals due to the long playing time.

So does this decrease the amount of buyers?

I think it does, because then there are not a bunch of m3 weapons at lower ranks. :)

opinion on smokey :

I choose thunder to smokey coz i cant just go to attack on the belief that critical hit will save my life ! so thunder is more reliable

maybe this is where dev got to improve smokey

am i correct ?

when is the rebalance going to end

lolol are you serious?

[chiyaProgramer 1]

when is the rebalance going to end

he means when is the process(of refunding cry and starting game) going to end .. which is already done

[artberry 15]

Well "When is the rebalance going to end?" is a good question. Because insofar as this rebalancing has stolen our existing game property it crosses a line in terms of trust and credibility.

 

Surely one can never be certain it isn't going to happen again. What's the point of playing a game where the incentives and goals have no credibility let alone spend real money on it?

 

So at this point it's hard to see where the repercussions of the rebalance will end because it's caused irreparable damage to the credibility of this game and any trust one might have had in it's organizers IMO.

 

Personally I've lost a great deal of my enthusiasm for this game. There's no point in playing a game in which the goal posts keep moving, one may just as well go roll a big stone up a hill only to watch it roll back down again, There are better things one can do with one's time and more reliable things one can spend money on.

so much tl;dr in this thread.

The re-balance stinks, it's happened, and how are any players under Warrant Officer even going to upgrade their weapons???

[Arcohhs 67]

i dont like the idea about the rebalance tough i got a nice amount of crystals everything went badly ppl on server 8 are mad because of the rebalance and im also pissed off too i lost most of my things ive earned over a couple of months ive bought railgun m2 and i lost that to smoky m1 is the same price as railgun m2 before the rebalance. Most prices dont seem fair I HATE THE REBALANCE!! >:(

[Arcohhs 67]

when is the rebalance going to end

I agree this stupid madness need to end

Compare Hunter and Viking. Hunter will be faster, and look as if it is from a different era. VIking will be low cut sexy; but dead beat slow tank. It makes no sense.:

I think this was a cruddy rebalance... what was good about the game turned around and is sad to see.. Viking is so slow... even though it "says" you have HP of 220, t hits from same lev thunder and your toast. Should have just added a few more hulls and weapons and let the big players move up to another level to make them feel more special, and allow the rest of us to play the game that they played to get where they are at. This game used to be a fun game.. and now it's causing me to lose interest in it.. Was that the intent of the rebalance? Developers should have concentrated on upgrading the levels and left the game intact in my opinion. Also I keep getting an error and saying "return to game".. like about 10 times in a row until I finally F5 and reset.

honestly i am a player that dont pay anything to get crystals n get all upgrades quickly. its not because i cant spent money but it just kills the mood of game quickly where u have try hard to get every crystals n make killing too

and i in deep really love this game n appect the good changes that rebalance made by making the m3/m2 levels harder to reach out of hands of people who cant spend cash instantly n kills the theme of game

by good changes in rebalance i mean :)

1 giving three more higher ranks

2 making equal power of guns n hulls at par for both a wealthy player n free player at lower n medium ranks

3 shuffling the protection of paints

4 thereby returning the crystals that we spend before rebalance i mean even u wouldnt have returned them nobody could challenge u as its tanki owners platform still

 

but yes few things really hurted me........ not me but majority of players........but even to tanki online goodwill too

1 there are big gaps in ranks in unlocking of guns n hulls. still avoidable ;)

2 one of the major issues....................... :( :( :( :( a way too expensive crystals paying for m2/m3 levels that only the person having waste money will spend on crystals to these levels guns n hulls thereby eliminating the freebies like us on higher ranks n thus if we cant upgrade to m3/m2 levels without paying for crystals than WANTS THE POINT TO START PLAYING THIS GAME FROM FRESH FOR A NEW PLAYER as if even u see tanki's scoring system of killing n distirbution of crystals, a person who add 1000 score to ranks on an average makes 100-125 crystals only thus making it impossible for a FREE PLAYER to have a full m3 (tank plus gun) plus paint thus obviously he cant get 1st or 2nd position in any battel he gets in higher ranks.

 

NOW THE most impotant thing to highlight on WHY WE ALL ARE PLAYING TANKI? b,coz it teaches us how in real life tanks battel or operate or make strategy. definately no B). Acutal theme is via our tanks "WE TAKE OUT OUR BEASTLY COURAGE TO FIGHT LEGELLY N PROVE I AM MORE DOMINANT THAT U" in which i assume 80-70% people play for free n fun n if these get out of the game as higher levels they cant affort WHO WILL BE LEFT TO PLAY OR PROFF WHO IS POWERFULL like "OOh this is a small power tank at this level lets destroy him first so he cant eat crystals n we make higher score"

THE FACT FREE PLAYERS ARE THE RUNNING WATER WHO NOT LET THE RIVER OF TANKI GET DRY N FISHES AKA CRYSTAL SPENDING PLAYERS GETTING DEAD

 

Now getting over to what happened in tanki meeting room as far as i see reason of getting hasty desicions like that

1 a new executive or higher officer got appointed who wanted get the wheel of fortune(money) get turning quickly in this hast he for forget a child who crawl can walk but cant run n thus he is SACRIFICING TANKI GOODWILL N PLAYERS IN ORDER TO SHOW GAIN IN ACCOUNTS

2 or/and there must have been some time deadline got set on heads of all staff to introduce rebalance so without much tests they released it

3 or there must have been some mergering or over-taking of company or software is going on where this game have been going in some other conpany or software developer hands so question arises out of mind "why not take some profit out of it ?" before switching hands (i see less probabilty of it :o )

 

Recommendations -

YES we respect that bags of money is needed in order to maintain this platform n get it going n we honour it definataly but killing the golden goose in order to get the golden egg will not help

1 yes make m3/m2 weapons expensive like 10-15% more than previous guns/hull but not that expensive that it kills the game itself

2 plus try to make crystals purchasing power expensive so that a free player can also play like if u used to issue 50 crystals - on 1 dollar than make 50 cry on 1.25-1.45 dollar or make 35-32 crystals on 1 dollar

3 please update ur scoring n crystal distributions system too so that a free player can get higher crystals than before to get higher guns n tanks

well after playing for 6-8 months this is my FIRST post to administration coz i was happy before that now not :unsure: as i see no motive of playing.

I also request management we love this game thats why i wrote so much N WE PROTECT THAT ONE ALWAYS WHOME WE LOVE MUCH.

regards

HEAVY.LOAD

I agree 100%... the rebalance just made it harder to battle anyone above you..and weapons you had that you worked for are now out of reach because of the rebalance. Tanks that were fast are now snails... Depressing to say the least. Rail? heck no.. tank to slow to get back out of the way... dead man... lol

[Loackie 269]

Yay, rebalance! I have a lot to say about it, most likely. First, i like the fact that you get to try a wider range of weapons! Finally no t1 and t2, which seemed really unfair to me, as i was on the 't1' level. Currently, i'm a fan of long ranged weps like shaft or thunder, they're actually powerful now, not just having the air around the railgun becoming so TOXIC it damages the tank (point is, used to be no skill provided). Secondly, i am slightly dissappointed at how one upgrade is 750-4.5k crystals. I'm only a staff sergeant, and i got about 500 in 2 months playtime. What if i get bored of the game in the year, at the same rate? That will equal 3,000, which is only enough for one level one upgrade for anything, which doesn't really make for a sense of achievement, even though they take forever to get to, and some are just like thier old ranks. Thunder you would unlock at 1 box, then it's first upgrade at 1 box, which just doesn't seem actually realistic. (I'd like proof if this is to be disproven) Plus, i'll want m3 TWO things at 500 cry, 2 months in about...130-150 months. I'm not an addict, so this is really overwhelming. Now, it's still the cheesy 1 crystal boxes. They were OK back then, when stuff was a little cheaper and not 35k for a m3 wep. Could crystals be worth a little more? With gold boxes, It's sorta like finding a 2 lb. chunk of diamond in your gutter irl, and when you try to get it, it kills your gutter and you have to pay 1,000 USD for repairs or turns out to be hail (probably the second scenario, as it takes crazy luck to get) Then the stats, they look fair to me, except if m0 isida heals you 30 and attacks 36, isn't that technically doing 66? Also, i notice i am playing with ranks 5-7 levels above me! Sadly, these are the ranks that can get m1-m2 stuff, which seems really unfair. Other than that, it seems fine.

Overall 5.5/10

Stats 6/10

Play 8/10

Achievement Sense 2/10

[chiyaProgramer 1]

Thunder m0 m1 stats are fine ... But m2 has just +8 and m3 +5 only ? ! Thats sucky

[BoRn.To.Be.WiLd 29]

The Rico is to weak i used to love rico it was my favorite weapon now it is like a joke weapon :angry: seriously tanki why so weak? :mellow: please fix this

[S_P_E_C_I_A_L_1 17]

ya sure, rico now only shoot 11 balls!!! thats is not enough to kill mamoth! you may made a mastake, rico should be as before 17 balls!! fix this problem plss, or rico will stay more and more weak gun than all...!

[BoRn.To.Be.WiLd 29]

+1

Ok this rebalance was a very funny joke, now that we had our laugh can we have our old tanki back with our usual garage A.S.A.P? Or since you took our all ready paid guns away refund our money because obviously whe cant play anymore what we paid for? Whos with me?

[r_Battleships0 0]

The mammoth was already too slow before the rebalance why did you guys make it even slower????

Does the rebalance mark the end of shaft? I was able to kill a m1 viking with my m1 shaft in one full charge but now even a full shot and tap shot kills it. Also when 3 shafts (m0,m1,m2) went aginst a m2 thunder they lost.

 

Do you guys expect us to make thousands every time we enter a battle? The prices are too high.

[Shayan 0]

We need old Tanki Online back!

[Loackie 269]

Also, just adding, the majority of fights i get are with 3 box ranks and i'm only a staff seregant (an arch withh 3 arrows). Is this normal, just wondering?

[zShauNz 0]

Could you lower down the prize of the upgrades?The amount of upgrades is really too high since Tanki Online has been rebalanced.....Please lower the amount of the prize..Thank You :|

[BOMBOVA 7]

Translated from Minski, Dear Tanki game and fellow cow farmers, Several moons have passed now, n i see many of you are still in the shed.

i am in the shed also, My whipped puppy tank, is afraid to go out, 56,000 Crystals spent, n , i can't up rank enough,

i can't buy heavy weapons. The sheep of this game have put 200,000 crystals in play in this Tanki 2 , n still they are just fooling themselves ,

they have spent 1,000 US Dollars of school money and are NOT Happy with the game as it has Become. they say it stinks of Dosh.

i have asked my lawyer, my account, to get me back my MONEY with tripple "3 times" compensation

The Game Tanki2 is now RuIneD . diluted, false competitive, cheapened,

it is the Christmas season, n i think i have just had the Shaft by Tanki.

i am sending my complaint to Soviet Commercial Fraud Squad.

i am out more than 60 bucks, having been told my equipment bought

with real money, would be a safe investment, as the reballance would keep my equipment the same

Not Even close to where i was. this is Fraud, misrepresentation .

I hope Putin, takes the businessLisence away.

Lets give Tanki the Shaft, they have just given us all, this week.

No good is coming out of this. "rtg" yvr.ca

[artberry 15]

Are there any e-petitions we can sign?

 

Well although I think we are justified in feeling cheated by this rebalance and if one has spent real money even defrauded and robbed. Whether some kind of official regulatory body would agree is another matter. Because it isn't necessarily an open and shut case because obviously the organizers would argue the rebalance was intended to improve the game and obviously some people may be perfectly happy with the rebalance, (although looking at the string of complains here they must be a minority lol) . So whether or not a complaints body would arbitrate in favour of the consumer and conclude people have been treated unfairly or any trading laws broken often depends on the numbers of people who complain. So I guess an e-petition may be the way to go. :)

I think the rebalance will bring EXCITEMENT back to the game. I have been here almost a year, and to be honest, the game had gotten a little dull. This will bring new challenges and new players into the battles. Change is scary at times, but in this case I think it is going to bring back some of the things I was beginning to miss. I stated one time that I would continue with Tankionline as long as it was fun to play.

 

The REBALANCE will be FUN. I AM STAYING !!!

 

 

TOTALY AGREE

[tankbuster4562 0]

I personally like the rebalence, but i am not a buyer. I is obious that the value of crystals has been decreased and therefore tanki has ripped off many players that spent alot of real money. I think that the rebalence is an improvement to the quality of the game, but it has greatly devalued crystals and therefore many people who spent real money are upset and rightfully so. I would be very upset with the rebalence if I had bought crystals. Luckily i never did buy. HOW COULD U DO THIS TO YOUR LOYAL CUSTOMERS TANKI !!! Although i never bought crystals before, I definatly wont be buying now because i will not pay for something that could be taken away at any time without my consent. this is coming from a person who did not buy. TANKI ONLINE, YOU SHOULD GIVE A TWENTY PERSENT COMPENSATION TO ALL PEOPLE WHO BOUGHT CRYSTALS.
