Micro-upgrades in progress

[kdesai 2]

it was mentioned Each microupgrade will cost a small amount of crystals and a period of time during which the upgraded weapon will not be available

What does "it will be available for a period of time" mean? can you give an example please?

tried it in test server, u pay some cry(depending on how much u want to upgrade that particular thing) and wait utill it finishes upgrading like a day or an hour(depending  on how much u upgraded) I'm not sure if I'm right but something similar

But it'll take over 900 years to MU it fully. . .not to mention the cost. . . .oh they the small prices do build up. And at higher MU's, they do cost quite a hefty sum of Crystals.

nice cant waight

He even said it was an approximate date. It was what he was told. Now, if the developers said that, wouldn't you be dissapointed knowing that it's August? I think many people would be and get real angry with the developers of Tanki Online, and that is why the developers do NOT announce the date ahead of time. You should be glad they're taking their time and taking out all the bugs before making the update.

I meant testing. He's been saying more will happen in the next few days for two weeks now.

Price is of little concern when what matters most is the QUALITY of the update you're bringing out, as well as the response of the players. Besides, you'd probably end up spending waaaaay more through gambling + wishful thinking, especially with the higher micro-upgrades. Remember that luck can be a very cruel mistress, especially in this scenario.

you really you spend a ton more on chance seeing as when I tested it took over 5 mill to fully upgrade hornet and ricochet as well as 4 hours of clicking I almost literally went insane!

The MUs are too expensive... Also, they do near nothing. You barely get any extra advantage in the field because everyone is MUing too.

At first, they are really cheap, then they get expensive, and an M3 Generalissimo does have a lot of crystals, so he can upgrade his weapon almost 75% of M4 :)

[DeoxyriboNudeicAcicl 97]

Well, it does add a new goal for generalissimos...

Proves my point. If this update was about being non-buyer friendly, as Semyon said it was, then there shouldn't have to be any gamble-and-lose situation. You'd end up paying far more than what you would if the prices were 10x and a sure thing. IMHO that's what ruins this update for me, along with the fact that you can't even use what you paid for for several hours or days, which is sad.

I'm saying what the Devs are saying. It's not my/their fault there are problems, you should be happy they're working on fixing them.

if you ever played world of tanks you know training your crew to use a skill takes time for those who don't know its like this, your probably gonna have to wait till the skill exp reaches a 100 till you can use it its probably gonna be like this with the micro upgrades

[r_DidYouKnowThat0 1,662]

I love how inactive this topic has been when the new topic about the turret sales came out. :lol:

 

Anyways, as long as ya'll have an M2 set, you shouldn't be that bad when the Micro-upgrade comes out. But how about them newbies who got M0~M1 stuff. . .sucks for them . . . :( Because they'll be more willing to waste crystals on MU'ing the M1's. . .. :(

yea i always think of that, if one of my friends is not in battle then i cant go to there server, and it would be good 4 a little private friend chat even if ur not in the same battle or same server

Does that mean that rico will be the best turret as it was before? do microupgrades add fixes as well ?

nice job developers  , im looking forward to bpay with this upgrades

[TheLonelyEpic_2 8]

Yes but in return for the higher chance of success the price of each MU would increase (if indeed this does happen)

IDC. I just wouldn't MU as much, but it's a lot better than gambling - just look at all the comments.

Game designers will further change the parameters of hulls, to make them more balanced. Most likely, the same thing will be done with turrets, including Ricochet. But it has nothing to do with micro-upgrades, these are two different things.

Sooo, we're getting another rebalance?  We better get a refund if your changing the stats of things again.  I don't see why your making changes, I like it how it is...
