Micro-upgrades in progress

[monkeyburn 13,523]

Will a completely upgraded turret exceed the strength of a subsequent non-upgraded turret? For example: Somebody has a completely upgraded M-2 Thunder, is that going to be more powerful than an M-3 Thunder that has not been upgraded?

Now this is good!

no its not going to be more powerful than the next tier it is stated in the posts Semyon made earlier, lets say u want to upgrade shaft which has 120 hp at M0 , at M1 it has 150 hp wich is a 25% increment, micro upgradeing the power would mean a X% percent of that 30 hp difference , and on that X% we can only speculate what its value would be , Semyon only said it would be close to the next tier ,the specifics i guess would come out close to the release of the update that would bring the micro upgrades in the game

this idea sucks because people can put rail fire rate to max then it will be shooting as fast as thunder or smoky and ruin the fun or for isidia they can just heal their team forever or smoky people boost the critical chance so it is like every 5shots one happens bad idea :(

 

And you really think the developers would make it so that could happen? No.

One more rebalance? Or only micro-upgrades

[buster321 17]

Looking forward to this!

[Descape 16]

Only micro-upgrades.

[JonathanBernatowicz 119]

^That's good.

[meronnatu 151]

Only micro-upgrades.

I believe CRAzII FazzZt WasPP will come.

[The-PlayerTWINSTEST2 18]

Don't make microupgrade paints that can have damage reduction exceed 50%. However, in paints such as Irbis, which is made specificaly against Isida, you could only upgrade the Freeze defence in that paint, and not Isida defence.

I don't like this at all... it will again become harder to get new weapons and paints... weapons more to M4 means u have to spend more crystals to get it at max strength.

I couldn't agree more!

 

From Tanki's perspective I fully understand the motifs, that's just crystal clear.

 

However, to all those players joyfully looking forward to this update I would like to ask... do you really think there's a benefit?!!

 

Let's be honest here, to be able to compete at the highest level you will NEED all these micro updates. Once completed, there will be an even balance again. You will have a stronger hull and turrent, but so does your opponent. Nothing will change, I repeat NOTHING!!! Well, that is except for the crystals you have to spent.

Okay, having had an answer to my questions, I say: A bit pointless for players and not too great, but acceptable. Tanki will do it to get money, and I'm not against that. Not great, but not bad either. Somewhat annoying for me, but is not a serious dampener to the game.

 

The concept, that is. However, despite the overall meh-ness of the idea, I DESPISE the "possibility that a micro-upgrade will not work"!!! It's disgraceful, if we pay our crystals to get a micro-upgrade, it should be upgraded and instantly added to the weapon/hull. No doubt about it. A time gap in the activation of the upgrade is fine, but an "uncertainty quotient" is ridiculous. :| Why on earth does that possibility exist? It's appalling.

Seems that most of you did not get the concept of micrograde.

 

This is how I understand: In my interpretation, you would upgrade certain number of upgrades let's say 5 possible 'mini' upgrade before next full upgrade. You also can buy fully upgrade item instead of micro-upgrading them, when it is available at your rank, since full upgrade items like m1 will be more powerful than m0 combine with its micro-upgrades

 

This is my example >> M0 + M0.1 + M0.2 + M0.3 + M0.4 + M0.5 then M1 << This all micrograde of M0 added all together will still be less powerful/weaker/slower than following full upgrade such as M1 or M2 or M3.

 

However these are only my speculation.

I'm really looking forward to this update.

@skitee

yes that statement about the functionality of the microupgrade is odd i mean if i pay and does not work give back the crystals in full not in supplies because we dont pay the micro upgrades in supplies we pay in crystals

This sounds interesting

[thefear511 0]

this will be exlosive for tankionline

 

i hope every thing will be not expinsev like every one think ):

[somnus 64]

I don't like it.

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.

This is disturbing.

[High 773]

Very interesting I look forward to trying it out.

[robertahsam 1]

if i microupgraded my thunder m2 to its max, will upgrading to m3 be cheaper?

[Crotter 1]

Bad idea i think, just makes to too complicated, my opinion

 

The game is far too simple.

 

These upgrades are sorely needed. New content is long overdue.
