Test Drives and personal discounts!

[semyonkirov 29,038]

Tankers!

As of today, if you have a rank of Master Sergeant and above, upon entering a battle the game will occasionally offer you the opportunity to test a new turret or hull in combat. This will be one of the items available at your rank, but that you haven’t purchased yet.

If you agree to the test drive, you will proceed to your chosen battle with the test drive item equipped. You will be able to test it for as long as you wish, until you decide to change your equipment or go to some other section of the game.

Once the test drive is over, the system will offer you a limited-time discount on the item you just tested. The size of the discount will be random, while its duration will be limited to several hours.

Additionally, personal discounts can be given even without a test drive. Players will be offered these discounts randomly upon entering Tanki Online.

More importantly, personal discounts will combine with garage promotions, product kits and discounts given for fully micro-upgrading parameters of turrets and hulls.

The system for test drives and personal discounts is another way of getting equipment at favorable prices, which also gives you a chance to test out a turret or a hull that you haven’t yet purchased. We do hope that you will enjoy these new features.

That logo though...

 

Anyways, I like the update from how it sounds, but I have some questions:

 

Question 1: How often are test drives given?

Question 2: How often are free discounts given?

Question 3: Will there also be test drives for paints?

Question 4: Will there also be test drives for XT (for Gens).

Nice

[Anonono 1,233]

Nice! It is here!

[Erty1235_tanki 44]

Real nice update. I've been waiting for this for a long time. :D

[EGY_Falcon 324]

here we  start the hard work again :ph34r: :wub: B)

 

good luck for all members ;)

Nice Update  ^_^ 

I guess you made a mistake! 

 

More importantly, personal discounts will combine with garage promotions and product kits. For example, if all modifications of Railgun are being sold at 50% off, and you’re offered a personal 20% discount on Railgun M3, the turret will be available to you at a total discount of 60%.

50% + 20% = 70%

Cool :wub:

This is certainly going in a good direction! Prices will be shifting to be favorable to players at more times other than during distant sales. This should allow a more consistent income for the game.

1. Not very often, we wan't to keep it balanced.

2. Same here.

3. No, these are not planned.

4. No, standard items only.

 

Nice Update  ^_^ 

I guess you made a mistake! 

 

 

50% + 20% = 70%

Nope, everything's correct. These discounts add up on top of each other. If something costs 100 000 and there's a 50% sale in the garage, its prices drops to 50 000. And this is where the 20% discount kicks in, affecting the special price. So it's 20% off 50 000 = 40 000. And 40 000 means 60% savings. 

 

I agree that this is too tricky though, so I've just removed it from the text.

50% + 20% = 70%

I believe what it means if that if your personal discount is 20% the full price of M3 then a 50% off sale will result in a 10% discount because the price is halved first.
