Let's Discuss Product Kits

[BadTank 27]

Following the recent update on using Tankoins to purchase shop items (including product kits) I kindly request anyone to display a list of all available product kits with the number of tankoins needed to purchase them. The wiki has not been updated with this yet. Thanks in advance to anyone who takes the time to do this, I will appreciate it.

Thanks, plus they have a tool that allow selection of the turret and hull so you can easily list the kit you are looking for.

There are no kits in the garage.

 

Why?

 

I was two matches away from ranking for the kit I wanted. Now, there is nothing in the garage.

 

Do kits only stay a couple of days? How can anyone plan?

They stay for 5 or 6 days and on the 6/7thth day, there are no kits. So it sort of skips a day before the new ones arrive. The new ones should come in the next server restart.

Explicative left out. I really think they hate us. I think I'm out of excuses to keep playing. I missed a kit by 10 minutes. I guess I'll just save the crystals for the next microupgrade sale.

Why do you need to know what product kits are in the garage? You're a Legend. Do you have another account?

Give me a break. Are you that noob, that naïve? I don't play this account any longer. I have four M4 and nearly all protections, and one can never adequately oppose the crowd. I loved my Twins-Viking rig, but they killed that in The Great Levelling (a few months before they switched to only light-med-heavy hulls) when they took away all the variation in the turrets. I could make that rig dance and beat three on one more than half the time. The Viking is a slug now. Twins is pedantic with no rotation acceleration.

 

So, I played Ricosck. (Yes, Ricochets suck, and if you can't beat 'em, join 'em.) Dictator is too slow and the overdrive is a wimp. So, I started a new one. I'm in the middle ranks where I'm still driving M1s and fighting mostly M2s. A kit could even things up. The one I needed, I missed ranking to by about a half-hour's play. Screwed.

Will the devs inform us how long the current set of kits will be in the garage? (Someone that can, please ask.) If it is only a couple days like the last one, there is no point in trying to make the rank.

[Zekrom 316]

I remember it being longer than 2 - 3 days  :lol:

Am I to understand no one will ask? No response at all?

 

I see the comment from the nonmod. Most of us nonmods only guess, some with more evidence than others. Okay, but do kit sets only remain available for six days or less? What is the point? Is the point only to encourage wasteful crystal spending?

Maf replied somewhere about the point of this rota uncertainty (random and time), which is to incite player to buy kit with real money. The buyer would be feed up to wait and just buy it.

Free-player will have to be patient and wait for the right opportunity, kit product are definitly giving you an advantage so it should not be easy to get, either you pay with real money or with patience.

[OKDad70 862]

So, garage kits are just a tease now. No point in trying. It is a long-odds gamble at best. Pay cash, or forget kits. One more way the mask of free-to-play can't cover up the obvious pay-to-win focus of the game.

There's no product kits in HTML5 :(

HTML5 is still in development. There are still things that need to be worked out. Product Kits are in the Mobile version, so I'm expecting them to be added at some point.

"Most of us non-mods only guess" - also mods can just guess. Afaik, there are pre-made kit "sets" that are in "random" rotation, and one set stays in garage usually for 6 or 7 days (I have no idea). You can only hope, that your dream kit will appear in garage, which can take... long (more than month).

My advice is to find a few kits you might want to use and buy whichever comes in garage first.

Apparently, a kit doesn't appear in the garage if you have 3 or more of the items. Since there's no kit for me in the garage right now, I went onto an alt account to see if anything was available. Turns out that Atlas kit is in the garage for Captain and up. It's not purchasable for me since I have 3/4 of the items: Smoky M2, Loam, and Dolphin M2.

Also, I have my fingers crossed that Cyclops kit appears in the Garage soon. Major is the last rank that it's purchasable for, so, if need be, I will not go in any battles when I'm close to ranking up.

I guess this was a bug then.

Never mind. I didn't mention that this happened on the mobile version. When I went on PC, the kit was there.

How long does it generally take for a (m2) kit to be put back in the garage? The last time it was there was in late August.

Just buy it from the Shop with all the Tankcoins you've managed to save up.  :ph34r:

Not available at my rank anymore :/

[wolverine848 13,097]

Not available at my rank anymore :/

Was mostly joking cuz it's impossible to save up that many coins that fast.

 

But now that I see the upper rank-limit is also lower (in Shop) - it's even more impossible to buy kits using just free-coins.   :rolleyes:
