Game breaking issue.

[hhgb 2,655]

Back when Tanki introduced the old kit system where player could obtain items not available to their rank originally, everyone took advantage of that, and abused it. Now, with Tanki's removal of that system, players who had bought those kits are now special, and over preforming  at their rank. Now at my rank, i can't go a battle without seeing more than 2 M3 railguns on my team, and the enemies'. I have to drug in order not to die from them instantly, as they 1 shot 1/2 of my tanks; render my guns useless as they kill me first  while exchanging fire; my paint has too little protection against them to contend and should not be at this rank! I cannot drug forever to win against M3 Railguns, Hornets, and paints that I should not be seeing in the battle. The only gun I can see to help with all the Railguns is the Smoky. But no, they all use Needle paint so I can't kill them! Combined with all of the drugging, it's near impossible for me to do any thing against them, even with my Mammoth. 

 

Tanki should Return to the old system where we can now obtain those items too at the same rank, or lock those users into battles where their weapons belong. Refunding will not happen with how Tanki currently works. I even doubt Tanki will do anything about this issue with the new system as it delivers less discount, less value, and less point to buy!

 

Tanki should think about the players for once, or I bet they will lose all players before too long.

Well, I doubt that anything will be done with the old kits and their owners that will benefit players, who didn't buy a kit. This project's main purpose is to make money, which is why the kit buyers will never be put at a disadvantage so that they keep playing the game and investing money. One solution for your problem that I can advise is to start a new account and play there for a few months, while the Hornet-Railgun m3 buyers will rank up and not be as common at your rank. Then you will be able to play comfortably for a long time, since most of the m3 rails will be one step ahead of you in ranks. The other solution is to get a better paint.

By the way, I do agree with the fact that new kits don't really have any point apart from the "bonus" consisting of a random number of supplies you get when purchasing the lit. The small discount may attract some people, but I don't see why you would waste your crystals on 25% sales when 50% and more happen relatively often...

Agreed, we all have just to wait a little so they die off... or better yet rank up enough so they kits won't be an advantage. :)

As to current kits price bonus - I understand that discounts during sales lowers kits price, making them cheaper, am I wrong?

Yup :D

Ok, forgot about that one. I guess that's the idea - buying kits during sales to get an even bigger sale.

hhgb stop complaining all the time!  -_-

Moved to Ideas and Suggestions.

It's interesting that you say your problem is too many M3 Railguns. When I join battles with people of your rank, they all seem to wear Prodigi making the Railgun largely ineffective. But still, I agree they should do something about the old kit buyers who are now even more at an advantage. However, as with all multiplayer online games the objective is to make money, and getting rid of those advantages means that there are less kit buyers who spend real money. It's unfortunate, yes, but it is the only reason you and I are able to play.

The developers recently added quite a few updates to benefit non-buying players. You play this game for free, so you technically don't deserve to complain and demand improvements...  :unsure:

I agree but in my circimstance the kit buyers are alredy higher than me so i have to play battles that are my rank and below.

That's what everyone does  :)

Well the kits over powered the tankers, before they removed them many people complained about kits so they were removed.

True, but I will still complain along with everyone else. Human nature. It's a paradox. Non-buyers want the buyers to have less advantages so games are a level playing field, but Tanki needs buyers to keep itself up and running.

Kits come and go. Like everything else in life

I may not be that rank yet, but I doubt that many people have these outdated kits... It shouldn't be that big of a problem, after all, there can only be less and less over time, because tankers will leave, and the kit they bought with them as well. So technically, the problem is solving itself.
