Let's Discuss Product Kits

[BattleForInsanity 6]

@NinjaDo you know why buying a kit doesn’t give you extra supplies anymore?

I know it’s been a while since they have taken away this feature, but I never knew and just was curious. Ty in advance ^^

[Toph 14]

I didn´t came to read all but my question is will be there any kits (m3) after holiday sales? I´d suggest to give all players the chance to buy all kits from garage. So players who doesnt have much crystals can choose their favourite kit and players with much more can buy some more. I think this would be a good chance for low rank players to get m3 faster.

No reason was actually given in the announcement, the assumption is that it was simply to improve the game's economy. We dont really know much beyond that.

I have an idea to add gauss kits to the garage because free2play players do not have a chance to earn a few tankcoins on the kits in the shop and free2play players would have a chance to buy a gaussem kit for crystals that can be earned much faster.

There are plans to add new kits soon, hopefully Gauss will be among them.

It's probably going to be from Mk1 to Mk7, but other than that...yes

I don’t like the new mk7 update. All my long term hopes of getting boreas and eyjafjallajokul kits vanished

[E_polypterus 2,374]

Btw can anyone plz tell me at what rank mk7 kits unlock and their price ranges?

[Okami 3,041]

 

 

 

 

Spoiler

 

 

This idea immediately came to mind because some of the new kits have very similar names.

I dont know what rank, prices are all 382500 crystals as they only have a 15% discount. But as you have to now upgrade all through mk1-7 it still is cheaper (I think) than buying it seperate in a 50% sale.

 

Yes, the kits are wayyy cheaper than buying each separately. Even on a 50% sale, an individual hull or turret from mk1-->mk7 costs around 170000++ crystals!! And they said this update wouldn't make things more expensive, lying *****.

Buying kits for Freebie players is pretty much over.  It can technically be done...you can still buy a kit for crystals, but it is very very very hard to be on the right day in the right time slot with enough crystals and the proper rank to buy what you actually want...AND if you were to hit the golden combination of time/crystals/rank, you only save 15%!  You can buy kits for Tankioins, but it seems to me that a player will rank too high before saving enough Tankoins...and you still have to face the problem of right day and time.  Ya wanna kit...buy one with cash, or buy Tankoins...that's pretty much it now.

 

The ringing of product kits' death knell lingers even now as many a hopeful player still anticipates buying their shiny new killer kit...RIP kits, many of us haven't even realized you're friggin' dead.

buying a kit is most profitable when you want to buy an Mk7 kit.. currently i am a brigadier.. so i still have lots of Xp to gain till i can buy an Mk7 kit,

during this time i can farm crystals and weekly containers and use them at a later time to buy an Mk7 kit..

the best part is that the price range of all kits is between 350K to 400K crystals so i can buy all the combinations of equipment i need while playing casually and waiting patiently till i have saved enough crys and the desired kit has popped up.. i think this is NOT BAD for an F2p player like me.

The problem is that there are now 98 different kits in some sort of rotation excluding Mk rating...in other words there are 98 Mk7 kits, 98 Mk6 kits, etc.  Only one or maybe two kits sold for crystals show up at a time and they only show up for twelve hours.   That makes the chances of hitting the right kit at the right time very small...even if you play every day.    

 

We don't have MU tables yet for the new Mk system so it is still hard to tell, but from prices from the garage, it looks like you get a 15% reduction in the price of a kit from the price you would pay for the equipment individually...nice, but not an incredible savings.  The real value of a kit, especially for the M7, is that they unlock equipment two ranks early (and those are very long ranks).  In the old M system kits were up for about a week at a time.  If you hadn't seen a kit for a couple of months, you knew it was coming around again pretty soon and could prepare.  As it is now it is just impossible to tell when or even if you will ever see the kit you want...it could literally take years if you miss it once or twice because of the twelve hour thing.  It will certainly be worth trying to buy your kit, but it's not as easy or dependable as it was before this update. 

 

In the lower ranks, with the small savings and the easier rank-up times, kits will be even less important.  I think most players will just wait and buy the equipment they want on sale.  I'm sure they will take advantage of any kit they want if it comes up in rotation and they happen to have the crystals and the proper rank, but it will mostly be a matter of luck.

 

Kits are not gone, they are just much more inaccessible to Freebie players.  Buyers will have access to all the kits at all ranks and can purchase one at any time with Tankoins.  They too might get lucky (there are more Tankoin kits each 12 hour period so chances are better) and catch a 40% discount on their kit, but they have to be in the right place at the right time aslo.  My guess is that since they sent in money anyway, they will just buy the kit they want instead of waiting to maybe catch a discount.

 

It all boils down to people with enough Tankoins (that would be Buyers) will have the early unlocked kits and it will be the rare Freebie that is able to take advantage of the early unlock...not impossible, but very unusual...certainly not nearly as easy as the previous system.

Don’t forget about the “special killer deals” that take up 3/6 slots at once,  the supplies, and the tankoins deals.  Also, the free 100 crystals(much wow).  Yeah, have fun getting the right kit for crystals.  I’ve been waiting on two accounts ever since the update launched.

[E_polypterus 2,374]

How often do product kits fer crystals appear in the shop? Whenever I check most of the kits are ones sold fer tankoins.

Wait, when did you buy the bulldozer kit? Because if it was during the past two weeks or so, I didn’t find it in the shop. And I checked every twelve hours too.

The Shop showcase is different for each user.

How long does it take to get the next showcase?

my showcase changes at 0930 and 2130 UTC

[sharifsahaf 656]

aight i wanted to solve this problem by suggesting to make all kits available during events .but so few people shared their opinions there 

[Tidebreaker 1,669]

@At_Shin Definitely. Mk7 Wasp-Vulcan is a pure thrill ride, and wait till you get hose maxed.

This guy didnt stop spawn killing me in parkour just because I killed someone else , Btw the way he was a russian and he feels like I killed his brother in real life , So I came here and posted about that I'm a player here which is probably not alone suffering from this unfair advantages they give to buyers , Like if having M4s at warrant officers wasn't enough so they go to parkour and get free DL . 

Filthy game.
