Bugfix, glitch removal or System improvement are considered Technical maintenance. All the rest are normal Updates, announced on the Main Page :)

So I was right. . . . ^_^

There will be something like this, yes. First micro-upgrades will be the cheapest and the chance of succesful upgrade will be the highest, each next upgrade will increase in price and the chance will slowly decrease. But there will always a chance of a bonus, even at the latest micro-upgrades (getting two upgrades instantly).

Oh I see. Nice, nice. Alright then, I'm glad Micro-upgrades wont be that easy to get. -_-

At the moment Tanki Online team is actively working on a much-anticipated feature of micro-upgrades.

 

Not everyone understands what it is and why it is needed. So let’s try to dispel the myths that are beginning to emerge around it.

 

Every weapon in the game has got a lot of different characteristics which you can upgrade by purchasing new modifications. Many players would like to improve certain characteristics of weapons and do it more often than it’s currently possible. The main idea of micro-upgrades is to make it possible.

 

Let’s take Smoky as an example. If a player wants to improve its maximum damage, he or she will be able to do this in several steps using micro-upgrades to the level of the next modification.

In the same way it will be possible to improve other characteristics such as turret’s rotation speed, rate of fire and so on.

 

Each micro-upgrade will cost a small amount of crystals and a period of time during which the upgraded weapon will not be available. At the same time you will be able to do everything instantly for an extra sum of crystals.

 

It is possible that micro-upgrade may not work. In this case crystals you’ve spent or a part of them may be given back to you in the form of supplies. There is also a chance to improve a characteristic by two steps in one micro-upgrade.

 

You will be able to upgrade not only M0, M1 and M2 weapons. After all the micro-upgrades an M3 can become a kind of M4. Paints will also be upgradable to a certain extent.

 

Your opponents won’t see that your weapons were upgraded as micro-upgrades don’t change the appearance of your tank.

 

Finally, there will be an ability to switch off micro upgrades in no-supplies battles.

 

Please share your ideas regarding the upcoming update here and feel free to ask questions.

Guys you introduced us this new feature about a month ago....when is it finally going to be a reality???

It will be ready as soon as possible. Yes I said soon, because if you consider the amount of work arlready done, you'll understand that not that much is left. In russian videoblog it was said that both micro-upgrades and friends system will most likely be ready in 2 or 3 weeks.

Duh! You're wrong. They will always make official statements about a major update. So 163 isn't a major one and they usually give detail what kind of update it was over here, Patch Notes / Updates

Well that was a very mature comment posting DUH! anyway moving on methinks as I have go past the days of saying Duh! to people :D it was from me a sensible questions obviously it required a sensible answer? & to further correct you there has been speculation about UD 163 for a while now & as it was mentioned on the main start page it could of well been the UD I was mentioning as the devs obviously like to surprise the players like a general who dose not exactly tell his best plans does he ;) but leaves people guessing it`s called the element of surprise.

My apologies for saying "duh" at you if it was offensive, maybe facepalm should be more appropriated word to use. Sometimes players on the forum really need to check for the facts once they are updated, like 163 update for instance. It's nice to have "elements of surprise" but surprisingly, the result of a speculations are always disappointing at the end as you met your expectation on 163 update of "freeze effect being nerfed" which it wasn't.

 

Now, let's keep to this rule...

Now get back on topic please.

 

I don't know if this question has been asked?

For each micro-upgrade that you buy, do you buy limited amount of micro-upgrade at certain level of rank or is it possible that you buy as much at one rank that a weapon are almost as poweful as the next full upgrade?

For example, I have m2 smokey which is unlocked at Colonel, is it possible that I can buy most of the micro-upgrade which has almost same power as m3 at Brigadier? Or do I buy limit amount of micro-upgrade at this rank and only able to buy more at the next rank?

Actually Ronen63 I had no expectation of freeze being nerfed as that was not at the front of my thoughts but obviously it was yours & facepalm is not a word but simply an action so that was wrong was it not ;) & maybe saying duh! or facepalm was yet again not an appropriate comment to make but hey what ever floats your boat :D & as for facts I always make sure I know exactly what I`m talking about. Anyway back to topic There is a preview video that should give some sort of an idea about the micro UG as it appears that the UG bar is split into segments & the cost (only an example) showed a cost of 2 crystals but that`s of course subject to change more likely it will be as said previously mentioned by someone & as for the UG power for instance if you by an m2 turret & UG fully it will give you almost the same power as an m3 but not quite & then when you do UG to an m3 your get back (possibly) crystals or supplies or everything if the ug fails (that has been mentioned. ps FAO to BabaFenner89 that`s the last word I shall say on the matter :) (the former)
