Premium Account

[spino.ska 19]

 

It only saves time. You can achieve the same result without any premium accounts by upgrading your equipment one step at a time and not playing until you fully upgrade the item.

 

 

1) In fact...I don't see all that advantage having MU speed increased. I had this idea just because some MUs take more than 1 day to complete, so if I start a MU late at night after playing session, next night I will not be able to use the turret unless I pay to speed it up. With a little help in speed (payed in advance with premium account), I will. So basically, it is all based on paying...the only difference is WHEN you pay :)

 

2) Again: "buyers gonna buy" as I said before. I had this idea with no second thoughts: if someone is short on double power, in this way he can refill his stash a little bit. He already payed for it instead of buying directly from garage. Plus: for a heavy drugger addicted this perk would never be enough...daily gift is not that great amount. A generalissimo gets 3350 crys. You don't buy much with 3k crys. Ah, and of course double crystal card could not be chosen :) it would remain random.

 

3) ehmmm my bad, I did not imagine "spectator sabotaging". DidYouKnowThat  you are right. I guess it is better not to have this feature at all.

@Holyman_Tanki:

The difference between buying a premium account with crystals or buying a premium account (with real money) that allows you to earn more crystals is that buying it with crystals is also earning it for free. However, using real money on it helps Tanki be funded financially, and keep it running. Get it? And this, these extra perks are for exactly those kinds of people.

And I disagree about Premium accounts being able to earn more crystals. The crystals they get for buying, extra XP, and possibly a 24/7 PRO pass is enough. There are such things as 50% sales, and double crystal cards which is the equivalent to 50% sales.

 

1) Decreased MU speed up time for Premium accounts? Maybe. . . .

2) No thanks. Daily bonuses should be equal for all - random.

3) Now that's unfair. Pay for that mode? Not only is it unfair for those who earned them, but it is entirely unfair since it allows you the option to negatively affect battles (sabotage), but Tanki will let you since you're a "premium." Look before you leap.

Think your response is misdirected...

 

I agree with you entirely! You were perhaps aiming at spino.ska..?

 

:unsure:

[Holyman_Tanki 40]

Yeah, but if the time is reduced, then buyers will have insanely mu'ed tanks at far lower ranks than they would have normally. One way to minimize the damage caused by this would be to perhaps limit the amount of steps this feature would apply to.

That's one of the reasons why I think a Premium Pass that allowed the holder to earn XP faster would be an improvement.

 

I *DO* "insanely" MU my tanks at far lower ranks than I would normally. And the only reason I do this is so that I can earn XP faster (not because I get some kind of thrill from dominating in Game Rounds).

 

But if I knew I could (or will) get access to M3 kit faster (due to accelerated movement up through the ranks), then I would hold off MU'ing M0, M1 and M2 kit.

Of course he aimed at me :)

 

Anyway, I’d like to add another point to this discussion. You say that premium account should only grant more exp and permanent pro-pass.

Ok, those 2 features are cool and I like them, but IMHO it is not enough to “tempt” the larger number of players possible.

 

Consider this: once a player reaches the rank of generalissimo, what would be the benefit of keeping on paying for premium account? Exp is no longer necessary (unless devs create something new beyond that rank). Pro-pass? It could be not enough.

 

Besides, a player who is already gismo (or even lower rank: when you reach marshall, you already have a big number of M3 and paints unlocked), maybe he will never buy a premium account just to have free pro-pass.

this is out of hand mods arguing could someone please close this,.. please?

 

PLEASE

We don't want tanki to become like other online games, it is a unique game and it should stay unique.

Why? It's an interesting idea worth discussing.

Hear what you're saying, and it is a fair point.

 

Wonder if there is any mileage in setting up some kind of Elite/Master/Generalissimo tier for G'is'mo's only..?

 

I mean, theoretically, and one way or another, a player could reach the point where they have M4-Everything at Generalissimo: what then?

 

That's a broader/different issue, isn't it?

 

I think the Dev/Semyon's point is that there should be no express facility whereby players could buy an in-Game advantage for cash that isn't accessible (more slowly) to non-paying players. I - and I think most if not all of the Community - agree fully with that.

 

Whilst I can buy crystals that allow me to fully MU and stock up on supplies, I take that as a substitute for not being able to play as intensively as others. I'm out in the Real World, busily earning money with which to buy Tanki Crystals (and other things...); but someone else who isn't, can play TO 24/7 and pretty much keep pace.

 

I think that's fair.

 

Hard to think of any benefit that a Generalissimo would be willing to pay for, other than an In-Game advantage...

 

?

[RustyNail 1,538]

I agree with Holyman_Tanki almost 100%. Buyers should buy mostly access to higher ranks and not dominion in battles. Whether premium accounts exist or not.

 

The game is healthy when everyone can exist in battlefield and can have fun.

For this, perhaps a new filter would be useful, a filter of gizmo power. If average gizmo level in a battle is M1, then one M3 have nothing to do in there, regardless of rank. MUs should be taken into account too. (but that's anonter idea and may worth a post of its own).

 

Give buyers the ability to personalize their tanks (more or less). It can bring money to TO without ruining the game of many players.

(if that was the meaning of XT / Frost experiment then why the different aspects - weight, power etc -  regarding the standard hornet / rail?)

@Holyman_Tanki: I reviewed the page and it looks like my post WAS misdirected. Sorry about that. :P

Woah wait a sec,Hazel and all the other staff guys.I thought racism on*any grounds* was a punishable offense.Then why are you referring players as "Buyers" and "non-buyers".I simply dont like the idea of referring people like that.

Well racism isn't when you classify people into groups, but when you discriminate against such a group of people. It's fine to separate people into groups for reference. It's not like non-buyers are considered worse or less intelligent that buyers. How else do you suggest we call players who play for free? "Free Fighters"?  :D

You should change your way of thinking BTW.

[Loser_100_percent 50]

It should less offensive and more accurate.

Too long to type  -_-

But to be honest, I see no reason why the terms "buyer" and "non-buyer" would be offensive/insulting in any way. The worst I can say about it is that it sounds unofficial...

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!!!!

This idea is so cool

[r_DidYouKnowThat0 1,662]

@spino.ska: Ah, I see what you're saying.

The premium service would do little benefit to higher ranks.

 

However, I think there should be different benefits?

Giving them an extra boost in battle funds isn't something I would support at all. Not even the slightest bit.

 

So we should think of something else. . . . .

An MU speed-up isn't sounding too bad in comparison to a boost in funds.

Maybe a reduced MU time I will agree too. It helps BOTH lower and high ranked buyers.

Cool, like the PRO battle pass, the MU pass would be bought with real money and MUs upgrade faster.

It maybe worthless to you, so you don't buy it. Others may find it interesting/worthy, so they will buy it.

"others" 's mummy and papa maynot find it worthy :P
