Premium Account

[Maf 32,305]

It isn't too much that ton of player have better garage just because they come from rich family so they have tons of money to waste?

Terrible!! And  they can buy XT items?!

What's the problem with this? Buyers don't get an advantage by having a premium account (only the paint is OP), while the game becomes more interesting since you are now able to customise your tanks with XT styles. It's a fair and effective way for developers to get more profit without impacting non-buyers too much. Besides, you can still get XT items from missions for free.

Problem is that Tanki is getting worse and worse with every new update. Drugs were problem since they  came and with missions EVERY pearson drugs. Tanki isn't about skill anymore. it's about which noob has more repair supplies.

They get more EXP and Crys in every battle. So they will become gismo in 2x shorter time then other, normal gismos. which is not fair to them, or to us, because we have to put up iwth this noobs with extreme equipment.

Of course, it's all about money. And we both know that hundreds of players will leave if this happens.

Yes, so one nice gismo has to spend up to weeks, wasting every single crystal he has just to get that XT mission. And when he does, he has to work for up to few weeks (if he doens't play 24/7) again, just to finally get it.

And then noob Premium account guy comes and buy it for some crystals that he got by having 2x fund in every battle.

And what if 5x comes again? That same noob will earn 10 times more crystals?

 

I know that some of you disagree with this, but just think about it. Think about how good game was before.

After all, Tanki Online is a business. Growing and maintaining a business such as TO must have a cost. Therefore, TO management is rightfully entitled to market the product and make commercial moves in any way they would choose. Fair enough.

However, I think that the introduction of premium accounts (as announced in V-LOG 63) would spoil the arguable fun of the game. Got no argument against certain advantages for premium players, but the changes in prospect seem to favor the exploitation of free players. I'd never pay for a game such as TO and I wouldn't like to play against someone who gets "50% more experience points and rewards in every battle." Eventually, I'd probably quit playing TO - it's not indispensable to me and vice versa. I'm neither customer nor object of that sort of business.

Would it make sense to separate premium players and let them have a league of their own, while free players go on with their simple ways? Perhaps, a special lounge would make premium players feel even happier, more privileged. - No sarcasm intended.

 

Finally: "For those [premium players] who'd rather stay under the radar, there will be the option to change back to the standard rank icon." - Isn't it somewhat hilarious?

This sucks.

Adding a 20% protec paint is purely milking out any possible penny,and when Unity arrives,Flash will get in a very long/short stand-by

The update would have been good without the stupid paint,at least if it was 5% out all,but 20%

I hope that premium will cost at least 100 $/month...

■ I asked, what is the problem with "THIS", i.e. the addition of the premium account. Other Tanki problems (such as supply use) are irrelevant here.

■ They simply reach Generalissimo faster. You won't have to deal with Premium Account buyers and their OP equipment, because by the time they get OP equipment, they will have a high ranks and will be playing against other players with equally OP equipment. It will just take less time to get to that stage with premium acc.

■ What does Tanki wanting to earn money have to do with players leaving? Non-buyers can continue playing like they did before and the update will have almost no effect on them.

■ Nobody is forcing you to spend weeks and thousands of crystals on getting XT from missions. Spending crystals this way is completely your choice, so it's your own fault for not thinking ahead.

 

 

The case here is simple - you invest money in the game and the developers reward you by making the game easier and making your progress faster. If you don't want to spend real money - tough. You'll have to earn items by spending long hours in battles.

Great. Making an ever bigger gap beteen buyers and normal players

I miss the dislike button so bad right now...

On another note I can't believe tanki took an idea from forum...

They picked several ideas from here,but only those they like,thus rendering the player`s opinion to 0

They didn't. This has been discussed for over 5 years among players and developers. They finally got the chance to add it to the game, while OP of this topic simply guessed their plans.

True

That's what they want you to think... One of them probably remembered this in the middle of the night and decided to use it and claim it as his own idea

[ShOwStOpPeR_online 324]

No , Just No , Tanki. No. xD

Show me where players discussed it please

Otherwise,with no real proof,your argument is not valid

[The-Operator219 1,929]

Hello Fellow Tankers, I have a great and simple idea that will help the game earn more money and to expand the game a little more. Why not have the option of a premium account that includes many things such as getting double the amount of crystals you earn or even have a pro battle pass to go with it. People can only get premium account by spending real money just like World Of Tanks or War Thunder. What are your opinions, and you can help to enhance the idea by giving any feedback and by pushing the like button. Thank you for your time and see you in battle!!!!

Check the forum post for the VLOG...

I have made a large rage/hate comment there, go ahead and ban me.

I accept my consequences in exchange for releasing my rage.

[Benefactor 6,888]

Wait a minute…. There is a 1-month and a 3-month subscription. So does that mean once the time expires, we lose everything accumulated under the Premium account?

Here's one example: http://ru.tankiforum.com/index.php?showtopic=188547&p=3587560

There's definitely more on various resources, but the search doesn't show them.

No, you keep the crystals you earned and the XT items you bought (if any). The only item you lose if the special 20% paint.

[trextremer 65]

Well premium accounts...I hate but I don't.

According to me every game be Tanki or LOL need money to run. The only way they acquire it is through like these purchases. Purchasing crystals and kits etc gives the game money to live and without it Tanki will be closed....Consider now getting money through sponsors is a way my argument might be not gud.... Coz if the game is showed to the world or marketed like hell ( social media and stuff) u will get money and that is one way for acquiring money. Also I think Tanki need money for the new game so the pay to win scheme is around.....

And as for this, premium accounts are not balanced out very well. Reducing the previlages will be gud and if u guys go on with it every1 hate U...... Also the other issue is the player quality in the game. There r many types of games and most of them compete even though playing the game for fun. A game which as moderate to tough players usually have rivals to us that makes us wanna play.. With this point taking into consideration I find no 1 in that rival spot. Due to the kit and pay to win scheme player r lifless ducks u do not know how to turn their turrents.. That a shame and I feel bad when beating them up ( well tbh no... But still..). So the bottom line reduce damn previlages in the premium account and get those noons playing...

[ZRichard123 28]

#NoPremiumsAccounts!!

[Relate 714]

Waaaaaaaait a minute! What is wrong with premium pass, that gives nothing but faster playing through the game? Buyers still won't have any advantage.

*cough* 20% against everything *cough*

[DeadlyPlayer123 282]

CONGRATS  -.- ur idea just got in the game to make it worse .

[eminem9870 605]

Uhh, i'm so close to leaving this game.

[Brubook 1,161]

Oh please, they said it in the V-log  -_-

On the V-LOG they also said that Kits would never have been sold before single items availability by rank!

 

Tanki communication is quite "deviating" (to be polite)
