Premium Accounts are in the game!

To the person above.

 

The reason why players are angry is because non buyers are being used as a trashcan and as feed to buyers or whales. Premium accounts themselves have developed a war, and now Tanki has added rocket fuel to the forest fire. The game is already imbalanced what with drugs, buyers and kits, and now let me count the advantages premium players have. 1) they have the paint,which is now OK IMO, giving a reasonable advantage, stretched a bit in low rank. 2) 100% more crystals, just too much. A non skilled premium can get more crystals than a honest skilled non buyer. View it yourself. 3) SMP exclusively for premium buyers. 50% more XP points are OP  

when premium accounts are the only ones who have it. Seems fair, doesn't it? Xt items for buyers? Yay. Angry gens and frustrated players. Plus kits and drugs. Nice balance.

Actually, the Premium stuff favours the nonbuyers.

How so?

By adding 50% more experience, premiumers are being rushed out of the nonbuyers' levels.

And I notice you didn't complain about hackers and those who sabotage.

Those 2 types of cheating are far more detrimental than drugging.

Besides, most cheaters are nonbuyers.

So buyers at least have drugs available to counter the cheaters.

Okay, so yes, when combined with buyer habits, this is one more thing to crush the little guy, but all of you are missing the big picture.  You do not throw away your business model over night.  Drugs have been paying the bills there at Tanki, UNFORTUNATELY, and I agree, WHOLEHEARTEDLY, drugs mess up the entire game.  They they are distributed, and used, and the premise of having them even is something I have contentions with on all levels.  That said though, Tanki, for the FIRST TIME, has offered an alternative to that earnings model in hopes of seeing if they can get enough traction to make this model work.  If it does, you will likely see an increase in changes, like where drugs are more expensive, harder to use, less frequent, etc, and the benefits might even sway more to the Account side than the straight buyer side.

 

You can't sell cars that need new doors every month, and then one day to the next sell an insurance plan that makes sure you have doors all the time and expect a flawless transition.  The example is not a great one, but it points out the exact nature of the money and the issue.  THEY HAVE TO EARN XYZ amount evey month.  Keep the lights on, the water in the toiler running, servers up, heating, cooling, it's a business.  Then you have to pay people.  Like I said, folks, really, be patient, this is the beginning of something, and if it works, I'm guessing Tanki X will be lessons learned from Tanki Online, and they will make sweeping changes in the new version to keep this from being the issue it has been, IF WE SUPPORT it.  That means spend a few bucks on them.

 

As for honest non-buyer players, the truth is, if drugs were discounted from battles, this account system would do only one thing, it would make players move up faster, and die a little less if they REALLY WANT TO SPORT THAT GAUDY GOD AWFUL PAINT JOB (I mean really devs, a tank that looks like it just roll off the set of "pimp my ride" with that paint job, do better next time, I want a tank, not a blinged out, treaded, low rider).  IF they get better equipment and higher ranks faster, non buyers will contend with them only on their level of rank, and mind you, the faster xp means less game play, so you'll be eating their sack lunches most of the time.  Then they'll blow past your rank and into higher ones and you won't even see them much.  They paid for it, so be it.

I have a different post (repeated once) where I was asking about my Achievements' EXP being different than my stats' page.

Apart from the 'get an M3 of a certain hull' achievements, I don't see any other hull achievements on that page...only the earn 10000 XP+ with a particular turret ones.
 
Unless I've missed them when I looked through the achievements page....

 

The ''apart from'' was what I was referring to.

Some Simple Questions:

Why did Tanki introduce Premium Accounts? :)

You removed Crystal Boxes,Reduced chances of Gold Boxes and Reduced Rewards for Missions Completed calling it a "economy balance"

What about giving advantage of 100% more crystals to Premiums? Balance is Only for Non-Premiums?Or Tanki want to compel us tempt us to buy premium?Why Premiums are given so many advantages?To make Money,seems the best answer,huh? Well,I have answers for these :) But I would be grateful if someone who favors this Update Answers this. :)

I wish people wouldn't criticize it so openly, I mean, what's done is done. Protesting won't send it away.

 

AND BEFORE YOU GO ABOUT INSULTING ME, LET ME TELL YOU THAT I DON'T BUY EITHER

Then you obviously haven't been in a position to debate, More people complain about Prenium Acc. Will bring attention to it And Tanki would have to make changes, Besides if you look around Tanki Online only 10% of all players are using  Prenium Accs., And Secondly You are apart of the Tanki Staff and Caps Lock is referred as flood, Which is a no no, I thought someone in your position would be able to control their temper.

I like the double crystals for the game. I would be on board in multiple accounts: except for the 50% increase in experience. The last thing I want to do is rank up faster. I just want to upgrade faster.

 

How about a disable option for the 50% increase in experience? I am telling you that I would buy premium times 5 if the increase in experience were not there.
