Important Changes in Daily Missions Rewards

[AndrewK241 44]

They also need to make a lot of money.

So your suggestion won't happen because otherwise they'd have to charge us payers more and if they do that then most of us will quit paying.

they don't make enough from the buyers they already have?

No they don't make enough money from them/us.

I agree that difficulty VS diamonds was messed up... but they've gone about it all wrong. They should have made harder missions with the same amount of diamonds and introduced easier missions. This way they've just made everyone (including me) annoyed about the loss of the diamonds.

Also, 50% is a lot. Maybe enough for me not to care about the missions.

I hate to admit it but I agree on all counts with THAT ^ post's wording.

I feel stupid, considering how long I've been playing this game, but what's drugging?

i don't believe that, not a bit.

[ChineseTankMan 98]

Using purchased supplies is "drugging".

[AbsoluteZero 3,729]

Most of your crystals should be earned from battles and not from Daily missions, you shouldn't have a big problem with getting good reward. Good luck!

This is true. There was no need to play battles anymore because rewards in missions were so great. And this is why I suggested a rename for the game 2 weeks ago.

Nobody wants less crystals, but I'm sure most of us will agree that the rewards were a bit too much.

I can't be the only one who saw this re-adjustment coming.

u r right the rewards were too high tankers would steel heal boxs when not needed from me prob to get crystals i will like this better :)  :)  :)  :)

greed is a bad beast!! :)

Nothing to feel stupid! Drugging is using your garage supplies (the xmas tree like symbols on top of your tank)

[ChineseTankMan 98]

Well, Brubook,

 

Tanki's other option was to not have more than 3 employees and only update the game twice per decade. ;)

Sorry but I have to disagree with this. I made some calculations from Alternativa Platform published data and the result in the lower estimation comes to be of millions dollars net profits.

This is the result, not considering taxes. But if you have a look at it, Alternativa has 3 offices and 2 of them are in tax heavens!

[ChineseTankMan 98]

Well, Brubook,

Otherwise look at how much money X-Box, Nintendo, etc. make and how many employees they have etc....

I have to disagree with you. I know you are joking, but I made some estimates. How can you say that they earn little money? Do you know wages cost in Singapore? Working costs in Russia? Servers spaces costs? Premises costs?

I do ... not precisely but sufficiently correctly to make a good estimate! Try to make some calcs and you will see that they are covered of gold!

Which is, to be clear, a fully right thing! I appreciate a successful business! Yet they should do something more on customer care and players satisfaction! Or the business will soon blow up!

[Brubook 1,161]

You cannot compare that!

X-Box and similar have hardware, promotion, advertising, distribution, shops worldwide, after sale, assistance, spare replacements, guarantee. Only distribution will be 25% of the product costs!!

You cannot compare 2 different worlds!! :)

[ChineseTankMan 98]

Yes I can.
It costs money to do what Xbox does so if Tanki wants to compete they have to charge enough to compete.

Merry Christmas! ;)

I am saying that Tanki and Xbox are two different markets. Why don't you compare Tanki with Suzuki, Ikea, Microsoft or Linux? It would be just the same kind of comparison!

 

Everything costs money to be made ... but how much? and where this money has to be invested in? It is different!

 

Happy Easter :D

Thought I would just post my original thoughts on "Daily Missions". With the recent change, it seems to validate what I said originally...

Anytime you take away free gifts, it is a game killer.


Wonder why TO lost some servers recently..."to better serve community, populate servers better, etc." (blah, blah). Wonder why Forum has been down and why servers were down for hours & hours the last week or so...


"Stay tuned..."


TO is, by far, one of the better "Free Games" I have played. I have played for about a year and have been impressed by it throughout that time. The "Daily Mission" & offering items to re-energize the Gizmo Community, that don't replace or can't be used in lieu of the MU'd M3 gear? Totally economic shift for the Devs & TO.


This is the first overt economically driven change I have seen in TO, in the short time I have played. Other changes have been minor and to casual gamers not based on the economy that drives TO. This one is different. Interesting to see so many jazzed up people excited about the new "Daily Missions". As, generally speaking, a Pick Up Artiste/Supply Hoarder, "Daily Missions"--which in actuality can last as long is takes to complete them--will make it unnecessary for me to log daily. At least TO used to give me a reason to log every time the server reset. Now I do not need to get my "daily fix". Now I won't log every day and be compelled to play a few battles, or check the Forum, or maybe dream about coining some Cristal & getting that sweet "Kit" that TO was offering, then pulled, then brought back for a limited time again...


Hope everyone still has spirit fingers & smiley faces when the new Daily Missions go live! It is great to see +/- 240 positive posts on this topic. I am sure my post will get trolled, but I don't really care. I won't be logging daily; I have no reason to. The new "daily fix" can last forever...killer!

Now the party is over, the mults and saboteurs, which decreased slightly under generous missions, will be back in force to once again spoil your day. I'm already witnessing a noticeable increase in just one day! I'm not saying we reinstate the generous rewards, just saying if tanki really cared about the long term, they would sort this cancer out once and for all.

[moshkinstein 142]

I was not playing the game so often, but when Missions came about, I was playing everyday. I thought the generosity would not last. Now I am back to not playing so often.

[ChineseTankMan 98]

Actually, I noticed a huge jump in mults and saboteurs during the generous missions... :wacko:

[swede1 1,726]

I will bet anything 6x funds Sunday, Tanki will lag so bad that no one can play and/or log on, and so many mults, unless you are part of a crew playing private battles you will be wasting your day away.

I like the missions and the rewards. what i don't like is playing  a game for 15 minutes and seeing the over drugged/supplied opposition teams walking off with crystals in the hundreds when i get perhaps 15 or 20. Why don't you bring in a rule that a tank can only use two , and no more, at a time. I watch tanks coming towards me who suddenly in the middle of nowhere, light up with double armour, double kill, power and even the spanner. I'm surprised they can move carrying all that junk. They are ruining the game Bring back the 10 crystal boxes. these so called gold boxes are just DEMEANING.

 Just make the missions harder, but lowering the reward size is too much!
