Why tanki is still worthy of playing

[Notchfan 616]

After I have played several mmo games, I discovered that all of them have something in common: a separate in game currency that can only be obtained by purchasing. Then I discovered tanki where only one currency exists that could be either earned by playing or purchased, making everything in game totally obtainable without purchase. This is one of the few things that I've appreciated about after all the "updates". Unfortunately I felt this won't stay for long, so don't be surprised by this fellow tanksmen:

 

UPDATE 130: Rubies added, rubies is a currency apart from crystals that can be only purchased...

 

Let's pray that this won't happen at all... or at least won't be imminent :(

 

PS: Why deceive us, devs about the truth that you need more money to make ends meet? Maybe most of us will come to an understanding had you made a clarification.

I don't get how this makes Tanki better, if it's 100x harder to even earn crystals.

[marc.anthony 101]

No it just takes longer to collect them

Everyone realises that people are leaving Tanki because of these updates, but the developers couldn't care less.

It makes the creators of tanki better, obviously.

This is my viewpoint.

By rich, I'm talking millions upon millions per year. That's enough to sustain TO, along with the income from the players.

I agree with all of this. I especially agree that the generic currency and premium currency being one in the same makes earning money take forever if you don't believe in pay-to-win. My main objection is that you can buy XP and this leaves no limits on players' abilities to pay to win. I am constantly outmatched by people who have spent money and have all the good guns and chassis.
