Behind the recent updates

[Notchfan 616]

I am filled with disgust after reading these words:

 

Vladimir Kovtuns statement from Russian tanki forum:

 

Basically it means: (google translated)

Let's order, gentlemen. The first topic of this topic, I wrote that earnings crystals aligned with the current economic system of the game. Simply put, this means that we have returned to the level of the figure, as it was to rebalance. More: Up to rebalance weapons to rank price was calculated in such a way that the average player can attain the level at Marshall [27] buy one set of weapons grade M3 (second line) is not making the game real money. During rebalance, we have decided not to raise prices, and lower them to a state of reduced earnings. I will try to demonstrate. At 14 rank to rebalance things you meet that cost ~ 20,000 crystals. While maintaining the trend increase in the price of the thing, then rebalance you would see a 30 rank for the price of not less than 100,000 crystals. However, now the average price of 30 things rank is about 25,000 crystals. Total, by the end of the game, the average tanker could afford to buy two or even three sets of weapons grade M3. Just because the volume to the last rank takes a long time, so for anything you can accumulate, while typing experience points. Generally, this means a logical and final closure of the project due to the fact that servers have become just what, actually like to hold contests, and so on, because we have placed the total Free2Play. We do not want that, because in 2013 the "Tanks Online" a lot of strategic plans. On thee other hand, we did not want to lose the active audience. Based on the above calculations and was made ​​a difficult decision. If you take a careful reading of what I wrote, you will understand the purpose of these changes. Of course, I read the whole forum and follow the developments. Then suggest to communicate in a more civilized, comrades.

If this does not reveal the devs' avaricious plan, then I don't know what will.

 

If this is TOL devs' true intention; then my fellow tanksmen, don't count on future updates.

 

Surprisingly, their "well thought" scheme didn't deceive most of us. That's why they are going to experience a "fiscal cliff" in their revenue. Ultimately to an extent when the game is no longer profitable, when either another operator takes over or unfortunately, tanki goes out of business.

 

Why tanki? Why would you deceive us while being frank to your "comrades", who sure felt the way as we did? Why would you give funds to those who just idles around while taking it away from those who actually deserves it?

Yes, every player should be "encouraged"; but they should be only for their actions. Why take arbitrary decisions on your loyal players who are your only source of income? Why silence players who actually intended to correct the mistakes you've made and make this game better?

 

And lastly why couldn't you just explain your true intention frankly to us, instead of deceiving us with your already revealed scheme? I hope these questions to be answered. Think twice before you alienate your loyal supporters, tanki.

I agree.

A lot of people complain about the recent update because they used up all of their crystals on crap that they never use... I don't like this update, but you have to adjust your game play to suit it while you wait for a solution. I mostly just hang around crystal drop areas and camp, because crystal boxes are one of the few sources of income that actually is x10.

This was discussed much before, in my opinion it is not the wisest decision in the universe, but Tanki Online is not just a game...it is a business, and there are many reasons why they would want to do as your post stated.

 

I am not in the business "business" so I cannot delve further into the matter, but I would think that it was done to keep the game alive and turning!

What he wrote makes perfect sense, once you get past the awful translation by Google.

Madness! Reduced earnings? Madness... THIS IS TANKI

[jacobneale 1]

Notchfan "comrades" I say that all the time

What he wrote makes perfect sense, once you get past the awful translation by Google.

hes basically saying that tanki has made it more expensive to play the game (by forcing people to pay or take forever to earn crystals)because tanki are not making enough money. this is something we all worked out very quickly. wht you failed to address from the OP was the sneaky way that tanki tried to impliment the 123 release.

 

perhaps if they were honest from the start instead of the underhand devious way they tried to market the release people would be more understanding.

 

i can understand why you dont really care as you get your crystals for free ;) well not free exactly. you defend your employers in every single thred. perhaps a nick change to ´head of propaganda?

^Maybe he's just very frustrated.

[Panzer5454 3]

This is true, and also I'm a big fan of you Notchfan.

Tanki moderators are now banning anyone who speaks against them. The Soviet Union has risen in Tanki.

Tanki moderators are now banning anyone who speaks against them. The Soviet Union has risen in Tanki.

And after update 123, tanki now have an economic system known as "command economy". This surprised me a lot that how strikingly similar this is to its real life counterpart.
