Supplies spoil game balance

[RustyNail 1,538]

Problem isn t that you sell power, is haw cheap you are  selling it.

I don t mind play against players that drug few times in a battle - makes game more excitement.

But when you are playing against m4 with paints mu and continuously drugging  there is no fun. Some teammates wont drug, and others will stop drugging, because there is no point in doing it. And you end up with those unbalanced matches. = No fun.

 

My idea is making drugs very expensive,  like 250 cry, and make them 3x the power instead 2x like now. Don t sell yourself cheap. Is like a premium prostitute vs a cheap one. Witch one makes more money?

So make supply a premium. 

 

Exactly! If supplies kits are removed (which is equivalent to raising the price) a big step will be made towards the right direction.

lol, even if supply kits were removed, people would still drug like no tomorrow. No matter how expensive, those who can truly afford, price is not a problem. 250 crystals for a DA? What's 250 when I can have more damage than the other guy?   -_- I wish people of my rank create more pro pass battles.

 

..thats the reason why I stopped playing pro battles that admit drugs.

These battles should be allowed, cause drugging is a differetn kind of gameplay, some players enjoy that.

 

But going Pro I have the choice to enter or not.

 

In normals battles that last 1h and we where way ahead, I was soo often raided by professional raid teams. They wait until the loosing team has only 2 players left, then suddenly 6 players join, they seize coorinated positions, play like if they have active voice communication and -> they drug like no tomorrow.

 

After 2 minutes you capture not a single flag.. while they keep going and going and going, light up like xmas trees.

 

This is a perfect example when "temporary power" lasts long enough, to push several players of the former winner team out of the battle, hate druggers from now on, and maybe not log in the game for a week.

 

And this hurts tanki as a business.

Because this players pushed against the wall will for sure not invest money. Cause their fun was lost.

 

 

 

multing->

 

Regarding multing there is an interresting aproach developed by some players -> Player moderation - Kick 2.0

It is a lot to read if you want to understand it completely.. but it destilles down to the point that you can vote _out_ players of your own team _only_ if they perform bad (points per time) and if a lot of your team do the same. So you can neither kick the top players.. and neither the defenders have to fear about. It is relly cool..

They have already 150+ upvotes.. and keep going

 

 

That happens sometimes at my level. These people are way too 'smart'. <_< I'm so tired.

You have to be carefull abouit increasing prices or lowering a purchased value.

Then the price goes to high, a certain about of the people will simply not buy anymore.

 

The comarism with the premium prostitue is ok.. but imagine if all would be premium.

Many customers would not use their "service" any more.

The amount of weathy customers is limited.. therefor you need to server the less wealthy as well.

You forget you have free daily supply. So there will be drugging, but in a smart way.

Only few buyers can afford to drug often.  And when they do, you know they are donating to Tanki team.

Now I can get back the price of drugs that I use + profit.

If you make drug cost 250 cry, there will be impossible to make back those crystals if you overuse drugs.

And about buyers, You can have a great feeling beating them, because they will not have a whole drugging team on their side.

[Rohrmeister 1,535]

If guys just use their daily supplies, there would be no problem.

 

The issue are the ones that purchase them in mass, most likely in some kits or so.

About these kits I talked when I was worried that you get less for your money.

 

You are right about your point, that single druggers feel by themselfes for sure "more overpowered" if there are not so many of them.

 

complex thing.

Tanki staff...

 

Please do something about the poor game balance due to constant drug use. You bang on about keeping the game balanced but yet you encourage the use of supplies by re introducing the old "Lots of supplies" package. This was even discussed in the same V-log,  You can't have it both ways !  Supplies equal poor balance. Smart cool downs do not work with this, it just means the players using them have to use the old grey matter a little more before arriving at a base.

 

Too often a commanding lead turns into a defeat just because the losing team decide to start using supplies. Where is the game balance when 3 "drugging" Isidas turn up at your base 1 after the other and then use first aid kits ? Where is the fun/balance in playing a 60 min battle, trying to contend with 80% of the opponents team using supplies.

 

Yes I know I could go and buy a pro pass but why should any player who wishes to play a balanced and fair battle have to pay for the privilege ? Surely Tanki would make more money charging the players who wish to use them (in the guise of a pro pass,) with specialized supply battles.

 

If a player were to stick only with pro battles he would find far fewer to choose from. Not only that, most of the pro battles tend to be that of the highest ranks, so yet again there is a disadvantage. Looking at the advice/help in the forums from experienced players for the less experienced, there are many instances where it's advised to stick to battles as close to your own rank as possible. Why is this.....Yep, game balance !

 

I hope you will find the time to reply to this in the forum.

 

Thank you.

Wow I could not have said it better. Your concern about this is with me. Tanki knows that they make more money from people buying drugs. They refuse to limit the drug use and also what you said about pro passes is true. I mean why should I have to pay to have fair battles?1 its not even the fact thag people drug its that they drug on respawn and they use the same drug fore more than twice in a row.

[deadtoyou 2,502]

And the debate goes on......and "it shall never end" predicts deadtoyou.

Kind of like the debate of Evolution.

[Rohrmeister 1,535]

I would very much apriciate if a marketing employee of tanki would

- read this 5 pages of valuable, pure customer feedback

- notice the amount of uplikes that existi all through this thread

- and write back here

 

Feel invited :)

[arun246 67]

 

I really disliked those kits, I was relieved when they were removed, but I still have no idea why they were put back in..... :(

Completely ruins the game, IMO.

 

But, sadly, the rules state that:

• Ideas regarding changes to the actual Tanki Online to its previous versions, or ideas regarding the removal of updates are not accepted.
• ~Ideas and Suggestions Section Rules

Sorry, that was awhile ago, I try to write in normal font from now on. :)

[JROCKS 46]

 

apologize from all guys specially you hazel cause im always a frank person

 

 

hazel, you know most of people who plays this game are kids , or at least its better to say that they are not so many players who was born in a country which there mother tongue is english , so can you explain why you must use big words then ?! im sure you have no answer for that

 

after that , just one two things about what tanki done , first removing cry boxes , which was just and just from an experiment ! instead of making it right , again tanki hide the problem , how ? by removing boxes ! thats a joke that you say battle funds increases cause it is lower than the time we had cry boxes , can you prove that im wrong about this ?! im wating for your answer

second thing , these kits , why they should have time to buy ?! really ?! maybe for those players who doesn't have enough crys and you just drive them to buy cry to buy kit before time runs out , if not why they must have limited time ?! how about this question's answer ?

 

 

---------

its not only for low ranks , it happens in every rank , no difference between high ranks and low ranks , and you can not say that high ranks get so much crystal and they can buy drugs so we don't accept their complaint

 

this part was for Devs , try to convince players that you're doing right thing for the game ! not the right thing for your wallets ! as i said i am a little bit Frank.

 

The reason he uses big English words is because this is the ENGLISH version of Tanki. The ENGLISH community...
