Gold Box Mechanism + Economy of Tanki [This post is actually important so PLS READ]

[Sleek 43]

Hi Tanki and Tankers,

just an idea for Tanki Online in order to make our favorite game a better place. We all love the way Tanki works and are excited to see what the developers have planned, but I think it's safe to say that some of us have ideas that we think could make Tanki even better. Let's get started, anyways.

 

1. Gold box mechanisms (Sort of, I don't know what else to call it).

 

It has come to my attention that many tankers often miss the Gold box because when they are entering a battle, the notification has disappeared. Since Gold box drop zones are relatively small, it is easy to understand why tankers cannot find the drop zone, nor do they know that a Gold box is even dropping. To counter this, I suggest that, instead of having the message "Gold box will be dropped soon" appear suddenly and then disappear, we should replace the phrase with "Gold box dropping" and then a timer counting down from 30 seconds. Not only does this help tankers joining battles to know if a Gold box is dropping or not; It also helps tankers in battle to determine just how long they have to find the drop zone, and then thus further, catch the Gold box (or not). The reason I would choose to say "Gold box dropping" instead of the alternate notification is because we all know that at some point in time in a given battle, yes, a Gold box will drop. That is not the question of the matter. The question of the matter is when the Gold box is going to drop, not if it is or not. We all know that Ol' Goldie drops eventually  <_< .

 

Anyhow, this is just a suggestion I have about our beloved game Tanki Online, and I would like to see what other people think of this idea as well as any other ideas they might have. Naturally, feel free to comment below and enjoy your battles  :)

I really like the first part. Often, it seems like only 10 seconds pass between the gold notification and the actual gold falling.

the second part though... :unsure: I really don't want a selling feature that much.

[RamzanTheGreat 471]

I like ur idea.... The first Par but the second is missing something after buying something if u want to return it u will have 24 or 12 hours to return it or it will be a permanent buy :) And the first part is a really good Idea :D I support U :)

[arun24 5]

I totally agree with both suggestions. Just two days ago i missed a gold box after entering a battle because i didnt see the notification. I was spawned in my base which made me think that all my teammates were either trying to recover a flag or they were having lag due to the high ping on the English servers in the past two weeks. Its not my fault if i didnt receive the notification.

 

I bought Shaft M1 and used it only around 20 times. I have no use for it. Someone else has use for it. Theres no point in me having it if i am not gonna use it.

That's ok, you don't have to agree with my thoughts, they are just ideas  ;)

I'm glad u like the first part  :D

Yay  :)  This is my first time posting so I'm glad someone agrees.

Ok, that was kind of what I was going for, I just sometimes do not have time to go on and make changes to my account. I totally agree with what you say though, I like that idea better actually  :P

[BSG-62 574]

I really want the ability to sell unwanted stuff or get a refund.

[arun24 5]

Yay  :)  This is my first time posting so I'm glad someone agrees.

Really, well your idea is great... I have been suggesting since last year. Many people hated all of my topics until now im getting positive feedback on most of my topics.

 

Oh and btw some Mods may consider all of your separate posts in a single time period "Flooding" so do make sure you use the Multiquote instead of quote unless your using it to reply to one person. (Just saying, not forcing you)

Thanks :D

1. No. Been answered long ago. You should play in battle to catch the gold box, not jumping from one to another looking is it dropping or not.

2. No. Been answered long ago. Economy of the current game will not change.

 

But as long as you want a discussion and comments, I wont lock the topic. Let the moderators to decide.

[BuriedSky 1,324]

I liked your first idea...a nice idea, but I also agree what Hazel had to say...people would actually be jumping around in search of golds and never stay at one place......

And for the second one, it has been suggested many times...but selling off the garage equipment never came out to be a very good thing...so I dont think that there will be a feature of anything like selling off the garage...

[TriNitroToIuene 4,775]

The first idea, not bad.

 

The second idea - in fact, trading is useless in the game, because if you sell some item to another player, he could rather buy it for himself from his own garage than from you. And there is nothing like 'second-hand' - the item remains brand new throughout its span. So...... you get my drift.

[beaku 2,661]

Both ideas are pretty pointless and, I believe, have already been rejected many times.

1. Yeah, it's sad when I enter a battle and realise that Gold is dropping but am not able to catch it. But hey, the one who got it was more deserving than me. Also, you can tell that Gold is dropping if the battle seems to have stopped and everyone is rushing about.

2. This doesn't really comply with motive of the gameplay. Everyone has a general aim of getting to highest rank and getting a complete garage. Let's say you hate shaft. When you have everything, you will obviously buy shaft just for the sake of getting a full garage. So why sell something that you will buy later on, anyway?

1. No. You should play in a battle to catch the gold box. If you can please take a look at where some of the Gold Box drop zones are you can see how ridiculous it is. Most of them are near ramps or building structures. But onto the ramps part. Once tanks start gathering around the gold box drop zone then other tanks such as light hulls take advantage and climb on. It happens in every single battle. Also those who lag arent helping anyone. They should get a penalty. Im sorry if this is being selfish but other players shouldnt suffer over something they cannot control.
2. The economy has changed. New product kits, turrets.

1. No one should deserve the gold box more than you. 
2. Selling an item may help you gain crystals that you need. Right now on my main account i dont need M1 Shaft, or M1 Smoky... Those crystals can help me in my strive towards saving for M3 Hornet and M3 Isida.

1.Someone actually playing deserves a Gold box. Not a mult who just jumps from battle to battle for a Gold box.

.That means that one is too short sighted. If you reflect on it a bit more, you'll see that selling something has just no sense if you are going to buy it again later. (And since selling will be at less than original price, it is a loss for you).

Why you argue with me over this one?

Everyone Knows That You Need to first Play in a Battle to Get Gold , But Seriously You Want Gold By This Idea ? 

See , You Also Said the Player (who plays the game) Must be More Deserved to get a Gold .

How come you think like this ?

Your Deservement Should be Based Upon your Timing to Find the Spot , Skill to Find The Right Place and Accurately Take The Gold 

If You're Skilled You can sense Players Ramming Around to Find the Spot .

The Gold box is Made to be Luckily Dropped (Notification), Hope you Understand ;)

Thanks :)  I'm sorry, maybe I phrased that part wrong. I meant for when players join a battle, assuming they are innocent and just wanted to join the battle, that there would be a notification. Plus, most players consider jumping from one battle to another a hassle anyways  :P

As for the second one, um... Thanks for feedback.

[Sleek 43]

Listen guys I'm sorry I didn't want to start an argument I was just speaking my mind. I guess most of you are kind of right, trading features are useless, and the alternate notification gives players an advantage who weren't even there in the first place. But hey, I said what I thought. It's all good  ;)

1. I think, some type of countdown would be great. Mechanism with notification itself is ok, but e.g. small countdown clock near fund&flag (kills and other) stats right after alarm...

Myself I try to count from 0 to 30 in my mind, not so effective.

[AbsoluteZero 3,733]

Here is my advice.

 

• Delete the 2nd part of your suggestion. Remove it totally.
• Amend the first part to address Hazel's concern about battle hopping. I'd like a timer.
• Never use that font again. My eyes! :blink:

Ok, sorry man.  :unsure: I will take your advice.
