Update 138 — Product kits

[FederalBureauFBI 2,881]

* Buying supplies in kits on first several ranks, you can get access to them before the rest of the players. In order to replenish the stock of each supply individually, it should be available to you separately. Also, you can always buy another kit.

[Ranger7 75]

Correct.

[GoldRock 6,165]

It was kind of hard to understand that bit.. So the answer to my question is yes (disregarding that confusing 'you can always buy another kit' bit)? Thanks :)

^^ This update will increase, most likely, the amount of supply users, but even still, it has allowed you to take part in using supplies for a reasonable amount of crystals.

That makes as much sense as the"new economics". Lets multiply everything by 10 so they won't notice that is now much harder to acquire crystals. This allowed people to get fractions of crystals that they were not getting while taking them away from others ; meanwhile the total amount of crystals was shrinking. Instead of telling us that we were going to get less in total you stressed that the new system would be fairer to everyone. Now your trying to tell us that supplying cheaper drugs is more equitable. However you know that this will only escalate the use and therefore the need for more drugs. Good for Tanki's bottom line but bad for anyone who understands that drugging only makes the game less interesting.

this suppy kit is going to stay forever?

[r_iknat11 1]

Mate! You must be stupid! This is better than every - think about it: If you buy one of those kits, this means you save up 50% crystals and get this swag! It might be just M0s included in the kits, but still. I'm hoping, that other upgrades will be included in as well as kits. Like - for higher ranks the kits goes up higher price, but still stays 50% and if you are like Major rank you could get a kit with M2s instead of M0s - so it would basically depend on your rank - the higher your rank would be, the higher upgrades you could get in the kits, if you hadn't already purchased them. What do you think people?

 

Btw: Why can't I see the pictures properly? Upload them on tinypic or imageshack so I can see them!!!

Who do you work for?

those richer players who were able to afford to use over 30 or more of each supply, in every game I seem to play on these days, will now be able to buy double. Players who are unable to put their spending money or disposable income into the Tanki coffers will now be 3rd class tanki participants, unable to protect themselves against players half a dozen ranks below them.

 

"Great update". <_< Druggers rejoice!

Seems that players will no longer be able to enter a battle without stocking up on supplies first. For me, a non-buyer, update 123 was already a stab in the back with its decreased fund but this one means two choices: either go into battle and hope that it would be a honourable one depending only on skill and not the amount of drugs used or buy a nsbp and go through every single server searching for a battle that matches my rank. Free and fun game indeed...

Couldn't agree more. I've posted a solution on the feedback site which might get your interest. Love to hear your input there.

why we cant get back best old times in tanki. i realli miss them since 17th of december 2012. that date was last best day of tanki then come ''GOOD REBALANCE'' and destroy everything and like cheerry on top of cake come update 123 when we really lost ways to earn crystals. we need to buy crystals. there is no other way. they maded rebalance and (im gonna not say what) to push us to buy. nothing good in rebalance. so please reurn tanki to old times. (only good things of new updates was new platform and shadow upgrades). and these supplies kits 50% of are very very bad. now can every noob (who buy cry) use drugs. now in game ar just druggers. and thats unfair always high ranks can have good things. if player is enough good to earn crystals for mamoth m3 or something like that then u can buy it no rank required. few weeks before rebalance i was very happy beacuse on christmas (on 25% discount) i wanted to upgrade my hornet m3 and a few other stuff. now can only imagining to have hornet m3 and mamoth m3. i was verry happy before rebalance now im marshal and im noob again. i hope this game will return on old times.

Ps: im not really expert in english so there can be some mistakes.

Thanks for understanding

I agree They need to bring back old tanki B)

I started to buy the heavy kit but it charged me full price and i didnt even get the health. Please refund my difference. This is a joke if its not going to work.

[amsterdamn 242]

The combi sounds fine to me. Please, please, make them available for higher ranks too. Please add more different combinations of hulls and guns. Other suggestions, also for higher ranks: (1) combinations of 2 types of hulls or 2 types of guns; (2) or even better: make it for the player to decide his own combinations: a hull (any type) + a gun (any type) = 50% reduction.

Who do you work for?

For himself

[Ein_Necro 84]

higher ranks stop whining, you had old tanki and we can agree that it was more or less easier than it is now, this is for the new comers and they deserve some slack too.

thanks tanki development team.

I'v got an idea why dont you lower prices the game would be more fun because i had m3 rail but now i only have m2 i would be welling to buy more crystals with real money if you just lowered the pries please lol. And you should make the kits for higher ranks.

Please post your ideas here.

how about you make some updates that would actually benefit us instead of finding more ways for you to get more money?

Please place the foundation for the mentally disabled administrators.

I'll send them your money and they will invent new updates :)

[semyonkirov 29,038]

As it was said before by many of you, tank kits should ease life for beginners (for those of them who want to spend money).

And answering many of your questions and suggestions here, I believe there will be more kits coming soon for players of higher ranks.

[MusicJam19 737]

Wouldn't it be better if you could custom make your kit?

[FederalBureauFBI 2,881]

I don't think so because then everyone would get everything he wants, for 50% less price.

[Repair-Kit 80]

It would be better if you could do this. I've suggested an "Add To Basket" option in feedback

Who Benefits from this latest (and most welcome) attempt to make things more affordable?

When the weapons kits come out, there might be a bundle on offer for my rank containing a m3 isida, m3 hornet and Irbis paint which would be no benefit to me as I already have those things. The chances of a kit appearing in my garage that I will be able to take advantage of will be extremely slim. Like these random 50% sales discounts, eg, 50% off smoky upgrades - Tanki know that many will not be in a position to take advantage of the offer and only a select few will benefit. Crafty strategy from Tanki? I do not know! As you say, a Custom Kit would be better, that way, it benefits everyone - including Tanki.

I would have thought the whole idea behind Product Kits is to encourage people spend real money. Making one item 50% off as a single offer would only encourage players to save up game crystals to make that purchase. A whole kit on the other hand would mean players have to buy.

 

Example, m3 viking, m3 shaft, Inferno paint, 100 of each supply would be 596,800 crystals. 50% discounted = 298,400. Even the best player couldn't earn this in many months of play and even if they decided to take that route, they'd be hopelessly be over-ranked and under-equipped to make the game any fun so they'll probably leave the game. On the other hand, I'm sure tanki would like $200 from one player to get their custom m3 setup.

good job tankiguys thanks for the supplies kit :D

[latvian_killer 31]

No use for these kits.

All,i can say,is,that U138 is Useless.
