Yeah, this update has all but killed any enthusiam I had left for this game after the restrictive Score Cap update.

 

What's the point in trying to progress when one is faced with situations as shown by the post above yours (by a7x_Pedro48) ?

instead of upgrading a paint for a specific parameter that we have no control over maybe give us the ability to upgrade a specific parameter from either its stock protection up to the highest amount of protection the paint offers?

 

EQUATE THE PRICE OF MUING WITH THE PRICE OF THE NEXT MODIFICATION!

 

AND

 

GIVE US GAMERS THE POWER TO CHOOSE!

They probably won't change this update, once the devs plan something they obviously assume its going to be good, this is the problem when something isn't tested before being released, you might as well close the flash version when unity is released, your gonna have to, because this version is becoming completely and utterly crap

That was probably their intention once they realized how many TO'ers were not going to switch over if TO didn't get any worse. I'm guessing that's why TO then got drastically worse so that they won't have to maintain both X and TO.

The reason they have done this is because new players are not joining the game and the only players who spend money on the game are the ones that have reached the upper ranks, most of the lower rank players just don't buy, most of them are seasoned veterans who have created new accounts.

So make more items for gissmos to buy and make them so costly that the only way to get them is through spending real money, problem is they have set the price so high no one in there right mind will buy them, especially when there is the fear of logging in one day just to find

If they intended to make Tanki interesting for gissmos, they should have created m4s and 5 more ranks with staged unlocks.

MUs could be available for lower mods at prices slightly higher than the cost of waiting for next modification.

Supplies should have side effects, healing would reduce weapon power, armour would reduce your speed, power would reduce your health, and speed, well speed doesn't give much advantage if the others have consequences.

Premium accounts should be tiered with $10, $20, $30 for 3 months and unique equipment and skins.

There so many ways to monetize that don't require Blackhat methods, selling power to the one who can afford it

I personally don't like the update because it screwed up the equality of micro-upgrading vs m1-m3 upgrading...

Let me explain : 

Isida costs 18 600 crystals to upgrade to m1...But with the NEW micro-upgrade system, it costs 37 000 crystals to micro-upgrade it to m1

 

I find it a ripoff that we need to pay double graduatly, and im talking without the instant upgrade which costs another 18 500 crystals btw...

 

Wiki : (isida M1)

AAAANNND the one major monster that looms subconsciously over every tanker's mind, will we be able to transfer account data?

 

I hope so, because I hated how slow and sluggish m0 equipment was!

The Taiga paint itself just 105k during 50% sale, the 1% isida protection cost almost like the new paint itself. lol  :lol:

Dislike update. So basically if one of the parameters were full the equipment became m4 ? Amazing update tanki. What about people who spent bucks on making m4 ? They have single handedly robbed the buyers! 

this is awesome update if you dont like then i dont know

Ha! Whos going to spend 400k-800k on one turret just to get the next upgrade? It makes micro upgrading pointless for lower ranks because you need to spend MORE money to actually see the difference. This update severely limits the choice to micro upgrade, free players can't even compete in the way they would like to, spending money on a free to play game is suppose to be able to give you a bonus that puts you ahead of others, this update does the opposite, now its a necessity to spend money to even enjoy the game, the proportion of players spending a certain range of money has become irrational, the devs know this, why can't they sack the person responsible?

as i was saying, equate the total cost of muing with the cost of the next modification. And for those with m3's, set the price moderately high so they have something to work for.
