Buyers: Tanki Favoring 'em a bit too much?

[tanker538N 394]

Recently, a new trend in tanki kits have been going around; kits that give equipment that are normally unlocked at much later stages. I first noticed this a few weeks back, when a kit unlocked at major ( was being sold at the rank of captain. This kit comprised of Firebird M2 and Hunter M2 and is known as firewall.  I didn't think of it much as it was unlocked only one rank later but recently, the rank difference has grown wider. Not too long ago in a stadium CP, I saw a second lieutenant with Railgun M2 and Wasp M2! Railgun m2 is only unlocked in one rank after second lieutanant but wasp m2? Is unlocked at a whopping 5 ranks later! This is a bit too much, don't ya think tanki devs? Next up, we have the mammy-vulcan kit which, as you guessed, contains mammoth M3 and Vulcan M3. The only thing about this is that it unlocks at field marshal (). Now, mammoth M3 is unlocked at gissimo and probably no one would want it at a lesser rank as it's health is magnificent. So i don't think that this unlocking is acceptable.

I know that tanki should support buyers, but they should also maintain a balance. Because, sooner or later, all the non-buyers who can't buy crystals for their own reasons, will get tired of buyers and will eventually leave. As we all know, there are more normal players in the game than buyers and non-buyers rage-quitting would be a big loss to tanki.

 

I would like if these types of kits would be available for:
The same ranks as now, but price be higher

OR

Same price but rank that the kits are made available should match the rank of when the equipment is unlocked

This is why kits went downhill initially.

ah, i didnt actually know that, would the other suggestion make sense? I would like to know from you as you are much more experienced than me :)

lol I remember when Tanki was so darn easy...

 

1) VK crystals 

2) x2 fund every week 

3) Easy contest (spot the difference, done right and you get 10-20k crys - contest comes every 2 weeks) 

4) Weekly Sales

Agreed fighter...^^

Tanki is only for buyers now.... M3s on lieutenant ranks.... and majors....

This makes non buyers and peaceful player harass a lot. Kits unlock too early. If it unlocked at like colonel.. Its ok... But.... At lieutenants and majors. Makes no sense

well, money makes the world go round unfortunately 

[BlitzPanzer12345 241]

Tanki is due to buyers

:)

[ThouShallNot 963]

Ha good im generallissimo cuz i dont have to deal with this (only druggers, but i can play pro battles)  b) sorry mid and low ranks ;)

[Royalworld 1,269]

Still remember how prodigi and emerald at first lieutenant would make me mad by their hardcore drugging. Well, since smart supplies have been introduced, buyers' dominance has been reduced by a bit. When new kit system was introduced the first introduced kits didn't look OP at all. But now i think it is back to what the old kits were like. M3 thunder for major... seriously? That's like one shot with DP at hornet m2s.

Its nice to know im not the only one that hasn't lost all my senses. 

[hhgb 2,655]

I want my M3 Viking and Thunder from before re balance.

Buying kits make the game more interesting , and encourage players to get on higher ranks to buy the same turret/hull , and also will make the battles more challenging. 

when you buy as you said the mosquito kit (wasp/rail M2) , it will give the players that can't play every day to reach the colonel rank a chance to try wasp m2 :) its really nice thing.

*in a nuba dramatic voice* I shall not give one player joy, to make others sad :p

Jk, but you see, the fact that wasp m2 is unlocked sooooo early on gives the other tanker a disadvantage

There IS a reason M2 wasp is unlocked on Colo, A skillfull player/alt can totally wreak havok with it :)

[NOT_Insane 42]

This is not true at all...

For example, I bought M3 Mammuth and m3 Twins Prodigi Taiga kit (449 000 crystals) without buying any crystals, it has been really difficoult for me, but when finally I got that kit I felt so good ;)

So in conclusion, I think that every game encourage buyers, but if you're a "pro" you can compete with them :)

Have you noticed the 1500 drug kit? Its ridiculous 

[ThouShallNot 963]

M3 thunder at major? wow so OP

[beaku 2,656]

Bulldozer kit is cheap and all Majors can buy them, so it is not really OP.

Yeah by saving heavily for the bulldozer kit or buying .-..

Any ways, the main discussion isnt about the price ._.

Yes, it's about Tanki favouring buyers too much. My counter statement was that kits can even be bought by non buyers (pretty easily), so Tanki is not favoring buyers by a huge extent.

[LeIouch_Vi_Britannia 6,163]

Erm,yeah we can buy them too...

But Imagine a major who buys crys and can buy many many kits like mosquito,

Vesuvius,bulldozer and some of the kits to come and have many things that aint available to his rank,

A non buer can't do that :) :p
