Free-to-play or Pay-to-win

[tiger_of_malaysia 271]

So, what do you think of Tanki Online? Free-to-play? Pay-to-win? 

 

What are these?

 

 

 

These?

 

 

 

 

I think Tanki Online is BOTH!

 

 

 

 

Criticism:

 

 

 

p/s:

 

I made this because my games today were UTTER POOP. The games either ruined by druggers or buyers...

 

 

So, let the discussion begin...

Its not pay to win and I think the staff has done a wonderful job of ensuring this. You just have to choose a combo you truely love and stick to it. Don't buy a full m1 garage and you will have no problem.

Slowly, the advantage of an average buyer is increasing. But, all you need is skill.. I have beaten buyers easily using simple tactics, so, as long as you know how to play, you have nothing to fear.

How about a dislike?

How about a dislike?

Nah :3   Duel sometime? Now that you have M1 Wasp

I don't see it as falling under the pay-to-win category, because plain skill can beat buyers and druggers. The funny thing is most buyers have hardly any skills and rely on their drugs, while players who can't buy tend to have sharper skills and strategy.

It`s all about skill & tatics how you think

as if you buy a lot &  constantly drug 24/7

you can get over confidant & get rusty in your skills I  believe.

so matter how skilled you are, a hornet rail cannot beat a mamouth twins on drugs.

The only way to stand chance would be to drug, and most non-duyers do not have drugs

Mammoth is slow, and Twins is a totally different gun.

Railgun would own on large distance and/or with peek-a-boo gameplay, so the map is also a factor.

 

You'll be suprised how much the daily bonus can add up in a few days.

I drug less then I gain, and I'm not buying drugs. :lol:

 

And then there's NSB, which is not that expensive.

It packs better gameplay aswell, better players, more strategy etc.

Well at the rank of my mainacc (@robbie56) you only have druggers , which makes it stupid to play ; that's why i went back to Gta Sa , Alliance of Valiant arms and that kinda stuff.

Exactly

[Reckoning 178]

there is no item in the garage for which you have to spend real money from your pocket.
work hard and earn crystals and anything you desire in the garage is yours. so i don't think this game exactly falls into the category of pay-to-win. + the 50% discount gives huge opportunities for non-buyers to stay equal in the game.

[BloodBath2000 1]

druggers can really ruin your game -_-

[SuperNick95 5,312]

Free-to-win

[x4M 153]

dude .. it's not about drug or skill's .. when u play with ur clan or friends .. it will be hard to lose ! 

[r_DidYouKnowThat0 1,662]

Well, true, skill can beat a Drugger.

 

However, that isn't the case when it's three Full-drug M2 Viking/ M2 Thunder/ Emerald/Roger against M1 Hornet/ M1 Railgun/ Dragon paint.

 

Yeah. Happened to me like yesterday. Was winning then all these little noobs come and take over with drugs.

 

So also, you should realize that Skill could also be beat by Druggers. . . .

 

My honest opinion? Skill is slowly crumbling in Tanki Online.
