Ok, I am a lover of tanki and like to play it alot but the one thing i cant get my head around is....

 

THE HUGE LOOP HOLE IN TURRENTS, HULLS.

 

KITS...

 

i can buy a m3 kit and use it before i rank to the required level????

 

WHY IS THAT, if you can do that with a kit why cant i buy a normal m3 without a kit even tho i am not the required level to use the turrent

 

it makes me want to come off this game because its pointless now when you can just buy credits and buy the best gun and use it before you reach the level it says you have to be before you can use it?

 

what makes kits so special that we can use a m3/m2 before we get to the level needed

 

it feels like the game is cheating the players by being able to jump rank and use them high lvl kits

 

 

PLEASE CAN SOMEONE EXPLAIN TO ME WHY THIS IS>?

It just promotes kits as even better to give them a bigger advantage in-game ;) since kits cost more than 1 turret or 1 hull, this is why kits might look disadvantaged to some... So giving them M3s before they can be bought seperately makes them better :)

Kits aren't even that bad when you consider what buyers can do with Micro Upgrades. M3 Dictator/Rico at 1st Lieutenant. M2 Smoky/Titan before Warrant Officer 1. It's insane.

 

Theoretically, you can have M1 Hunter/Twins at recruit, if you're that dedicated to always having gear superiority.

One word: Money.

 

What everyone needs to understand is that [product kits] help the project in terms of finances

It's funny cause I just recently purchased my third kit on this account, and I haven't spent a penny on this account

I've bought many kits. It basically gives us buyers a massive advantage. Here's how powerful they are:

 

1. Have equipment unavailable to non-buyers for at least a few ranks.

2. Comes with Turret, Hull, and Paint combo that is cheaper than buying separate.

3. Comes with complementary supplies!

 

So picture this: Not only do kit buyers have an advantage in tech, but they also have a supply advantage as well, letting them double all damage, defense, boost speed by 30%, AND heal on top of that more often! Even throw in a few insults here and a hint of arrogance there to piss people off if you are that kind of person, and the non-buyer has no choice but to get owned or buy one themselves, giving Tanki more $$$.

 

However, if you are a good saver, take advantage of sales, catch gold boxes, increase your skill, avoid drugger battles when possible, play in high crystal earning maps, focus only on few turrets and hulls instead of buying many weak ones, choose battles where you outrank the majority of your opponents, play mainly in 15 minute battles to reduce the chance of druggers jumping in and stealing all your hard earned crystals, and use a good computer with good internet, then you can afford kits even as a non-buyer.

 

It's a lot of work and patience going that route, but if you don't ever want to be a "noob buyer", then this is the best way to go. I currently have an alternate account where I am not spending a dime and so far, this strategy is working great!

Simple Answer: they make the game more interesting.

 

Ask yourself the same question about supplies. I can drive over a box on a map and suddenly I am healed, my armor is twice as strong, my turret twice as deadly, my tank much faster, or any combination of these. They make the game more fun to play.

 

Same for kits. They give players something to plan for and work toward.

 

Balance the early unlock with the struggle to afford most kits. Saving those crystals usually means your tank is inferior to others in battle for a long time, since others are investing in current equipment. The obvious payoff is that you are very powerful for awhile after you get the kit. But that's not the end since you must immediately begin improving your kit.

 

The other option in is buying crystals. Obviously you are trading off because you must spend real world money.

 

And then there is what you get. Only a very few kits are perfect combo of hull, turret, and paint. Most give you a turret and maybe a hull that you want with a paint you could take or leave. In that case you are paying for what you don't want and really only benefitting from the early unlock. Hint make sure you can't just buy your equipment outright if the early unlock item is not what you really want.

u bought m2 thunder, that's cool.

We r discussing kits here :)

M2 thunder? He bought predator kit.

 

 

Which kits will be on during tanki b-day? I have no idea. Devs can adjust the time, kits are in garage, so even if we will try to "predict" something, we may fail.
