Not to be rude semyon since you are a Friend but why make it harder for those who can't get crystals so easily and make them fight to get the most I loved it back in 2011 when I had other accounts that I had made and I still play today and wish it would stay as box drops I loved collecting them so I could get more I am very poor right now in tanki and I can't buy crystals cause your fraud checking team saw me using my debit card and thought I was doing it I wasn't I had used my mom's help with her card and got crystals and now I use new card and they think I'm using many when the cards I have used were family and now I can't get enough to get stuff from the garage to support you and your business. Please fix that as well! Drop box! drop box! drop box!

First the negative side (Even if you are a skilled player trying to gain rank and build your equipment find some other place to play!  Because you will be at this a very long time even if you ARE on winning teams.)  You are going to need some very serious income but you will need to buy your experience as well because rank may still take a bit longer.  

 

This upgrade greatly favors giving crystals to winning players who are more skilled.  I've been playing for two hours and there has not been a single gold box.  Should you find yourself on the losing side even as a strong player, you may get crystals in the order of about 75-100 per hour of play in a two-hour match.

 

I really fear that there will likely be no opponents for the high ranks with well built garages who seem to like this so much.  Since this is likely to ruin the game in the end for everyone, I agree with the guy who said, 

 

"Bad update "

One FINAL thing about PREDICTABLE DROPS:

 

Basically, I do NOT understand what predictable drops ADD to the game as it was.

EVERY player, FAMILIAR with maps, KNEW dropzones in general BEFORE predictable drops.

EVERY player in Kungur flag game, for instance, knows where to run for drops, certainly those familiar with ther map.

Therefore, IMO, predictable drops ADD NOTHING to the game as it was before.

So what was the use of that update anyway?

I totally agree to ArmDiablo saying "This update makes me want less to play the game, it is much more fun to collect crystals and other boxes." I enjoyed contributing to the main goal as my primarily target, whether it was CTF or the number of the kills. Driving around the map and collecting the crystal boxes on the way was just an additional pleasant bonus making you happy. I dont care about exp points all that much, but stream my gameplay to win the game with a team.

 

We need to be honest now. What drives one player to join the losing team at this days? You know you shall get only a few or even no exp and crystals when losing, so what is the reason you would stay in such battle on a losing side. Previously you knew you might not get much in the end, but at least collecting a couple of crystals on the way kept you staying in the game. Worse, people on the winning side just keep still and in the end still get plenty of additional cry, which I believe they would not deserve.

 

On the other hand, we need to think of lower ranked players as well, with not as sophisticated armor and weaponry. What is their chance of getting a decent exp and cry in the end? Pretty slim. Again, collecting the cry on the map was practically the only way they would build up on their cry stock by the time and this way being able to buy advanced weapons in order to match other players in the battles to follow.

 

I agree dropping the boxes of 1,5,10,20,50,100 didn't make any sense as people were just fighting over this like it was a gold box and the gameplay suffered.

 

In the end - crying out loud - please, please bring back the previous way of dropping 10 crystals box .

 

This statement right here is the REAL DEAL. Not sure how much clearer this can get, What drives people to play the game more is the little elements you consider a big deal, those boxes weather it be power ups of crystals box or even gold box these makes people want to play more even if they lose, either way those crystals boxes does lift one up to play another battle and so on, removing them... I lose interest now in battling on losing team because you don't even get anything anymore only just kill or be killed, it's so pointless now, there's no aim or goal to play tanki without crystals boxes being dropped. Those crystals boxes is what defines tanki and come on look at your other updates before this one, crystal boxes are everywhere, I'm not sure if this removal of this box is to persuade people to buy crystals on a side or to get more to just quit and leave the game. You devs have to take into consideration mostly for your new audience your gaining how are they going to benefit joining a losing team and gaining now as they rank up... and oldest players like me will get fed up and just leave, find another thing to entertain i.e Gta v hhh Pm me for online ids lol. This is really a BIG JOKE KMT

i love this update and unlike many other players who think that crystal boxes help the low rankers, it doesnt at all... and to me i feel that the fun of the game is more than ever as we dont have to worry about sabotaging the game to get few more crystals... the game was ruined for most as they werent able to have the best equipment to camp at the crystal drop site and collect crystals. in fact, i believe that most of the players who voted against this were big time campers and were the only ones getting the fun out of all this... please do not remove this update as i personally had great fun playing without being distracted by 100 cry boxes and FIGHTING MY OWN TEAMMATES FOR IT! in fact now all of us tanki players get along much better and you will not see such strong language in the battle chat again. also to those who are losing, you WILL in the end get more crystals out of this update because battle fund is higher, (

(i am expecting million dislikes to this post by some alts who are cry harvesters :D )

EDIT: people will never leave the game just because of some minute change to the game according to some posts above, i understand maybe some big change like smart cool downs as they wont dominate anymore or rebalance, but crystal harvesting? the main attraction to the game is destroying your opponents which allows everybody to have fun, and not for the select few who dominate with their MU M3 mammy placing their oversized tanks on top of the crystal drop zone allowing no one to get them. this in fact is very annoying to the rest of the players as they cant get any crystals in the end and the focus shifts from fighting players to win the game to fighting players to be the last man standing to get the 100 crystal box... now everybody treats them as goldboxes and do anything to get their tanks on it.

I wanted to say a couple words about this experiment stuff but airwave71 told it before me.It sucks like this!The option with the 5,10,20,50,100 crybox only revealed the rapacity of the players.I wonder that the adminds didn't realised that increasing the value of the crybox that will happen?So the older version with 10 crybox is better.I played recently Serpuhov and in the end I get 9(!) crys!It is tragicomic.A player when will be able to upgrad something like so?I hope that the nocryboxes experiment will be only a unweighed point in TO.Best for everyone.

Ok, time for my daily -WHAT THE HEK WORST UPDATE EVER REPLY- OK, Now That I've been playing more, i have noticed the extra fund, it's great, but it was -FUN- to grab cry, put 100's and 50's (for low ranks) back in the game, and the others be in the fund. Cry is great because if you join a 100 flag, 999 kill etc. battle, you're probably not gonna finish it, either cuz it get's to boring or you have to go somewhere. High ranks like commanders, generals, Since they're stuff costs so much they think grabbing cry wont help. BUT IT DOES, IN POLYGON DM I CAME IN 3RD GOT 2000 K, AND ANOTHER 2000-3000 IN BOXES (it was double funds but 1000, 1000-2000 isn't bad. FOR HIGHER RANKS THAT'S EVEN MORE. AND IF YOU DON'T WANNA GRAB THEM, GRAB A THUNDER A KILL EVERYONE GRABBING IT. AND I HAVE SEEN LIKE 2 PEOPLE SAY ANYTHING GOOD ABOUT THE GOLD! WHAT WHERE YOU THINKING TANKI, REASON 1. NO YOUTUBE CHANNELS. 2. IT ISN'T FUN, IT IS NOOB LUCK, IT GIVES LIKE 1-3 PEOPLE A CHANCE AT IT, NOT EVERYONE!! I'VE SEEN 3 HAVEN'T HAD A CHANCE AT ANY OF THEM! GOLD'S NEED TO GO BACK NORMAL, THEY ARE THE WORST THINGS EVER! (I'M TRYING NOT TO CUSS BECAUSE THIS IS WORST EVER)!!!!

I did not like, because now the team that is losing not earned almost nothing crystais with boxes crystais the team that was losing could still join crystais. I think it's become very uneven game for the team that is losing.

Can you edit the colour of the writing??? It's like I'm reading greek here

I HATE that the crystals don't fall but go into the battle fund! And the gold boxes fall so early! I need to think where it might be first and you can't do that if the gold has already dropped! Everyone just go nuts and tries to find the gold. And the crystals are much easier to get on the map than in the battle fund. when I was playing Tanki Online  today on the map Silence i got 2nd in my team rank for the battle and we won the battle, but i only got 375 crystals! I could get that in 7 minutes of playing with the 100 crystal boxes and 50, 20,ect. The crystal drops are much easier to get too!!!!

I have seen you mult many of my games lately, you rather focus on taking a crystal than helping to capture the point in cp games, players like you make me lose the games I'm in and it's pissing me off.

So I say YES to adding the crystals to the fund, no more distraction, players need to actually play to earn their crystals, I love it.

I don't really notice more mults in games now than when there were still 10 crystal boxes, they're always a problem and none of these crystal systems solve this. Maybe something like rewarding players with crystals if they capture a flag (ctf), capture a point (cp), make a kill (tdm) will motivate players more to help their team.

I see quite a few players say that low ranks are having troubles with this new system, but in their games, there never used to fall many crystals in the first place. When they're new to the game, they don't know about crystals, they learn they need to finish and win a game to earn crystals, which is good! They will also learn to think more carefully what to spend their crystals on, excellent.

For everyone that seems to think this faster growing fund might attract even more mults: now the fund might seem higher, but in a while everyone will be used to how fast the fund grows, so players will be less tempted to use mults. Also against mults and the risk of losing a game: play shorter games, play with friends, play deathmatch. Especially deathmatch is good for earning crystals now, make as many kills as you can and you will be rewarded with an equal amount of crystals, there's no losing there, no campers who pick up the crystal drops YOU worked for. ^_^

As for the gold, I'm not sure which system I prefer, I like the complete randomness of the gold falling (few seconds of rush), but it will result in some gold campers in games. The 60 seconds wait gave everyone more of a chance and some time to prepare (+- 60 seconds rush), but then many players would change to Dictator because it is so much easier to catch a gold with, which isn't fair to the players who don't use that tank. The predictable drop spot for gold was bad in my opinion (just chaos), it's mostly about luck and having a heavy hull there, luck when you don't get killed but other tanks do, luck if you magically 'jump' on other tanks (which happens alot).

ok i understand your problem thats why i suggested solutions, some guys prefer the fund some other collecting crystalls and dont care so more for fund so if we have choises everyone would be happy , now about that we must to get crystalls , i have to say i get more gold boxes = fund than all my funds together also think i can buy crystalls and  can be very strong instead of fighting... whatever one is the point : if we have choises all would be happy, first we try the systems then we tell the results and yes for dictator you re right about golds but thats the game...and you know without crystalls its the same with world of tanks....there must be some difference.., betwein similar games
