I play 2 days a week.

20k a week.

that equals 100k in 20 days max.

my friend rank major made 60k in 1 week

its easy for someone like you to do because you can play your face off. I and many other tankers however have things to do and places to be.

When you take into account the fact that personal discounts are usually in the 40+% range and can go all the way up to 100%, 3 per year does not seem so bad anymore. Also, two things: it hasn't been a year since PDs were introduced yet; and if you only got 3 so far, then you're just unlucky. I got at least 7 PDs since they were introduced and used 2 or 3 of them.

You are in the minority on that whole 7 PDs already thing. I have only gotten 2 on my main, and 3 on my alt. Personally, PDs are not enough to make up for the lower sale percentages lately- I would like to see either this idea implemented, or PDs occur more often.

 

Let's not forget about test drives. Most people I have asked have not gotten one. In my mind, Tanki really goofed on that whole update (the PD and test drives one).

+ I totally agree, PD's I doubt will occur more often I really want this idea too.

Another thing is PD's for me have been for things I don't want so they have been really useless. They dont help most players at all

You all seem to have such a negative view of PDs, would you rather not have them at all?

I guess so, I mean if th're meant to be so useless, why even have PD's, they almost never happen and they happen only if you are low on crys so that you buy crys to buy the thing, simple as that.

 

I really think my idea should be implemented because it makes buying new items easier, far easier.

I think PDs are cool, but with how extremely rare they are, kinda useless

So do they make the current situation worse than how it was before PDs?

Yeah, cause some people (not mentioning any names . . ) think that PDs make up for the lack of discounts after certain amounts of MUs

No they are not. But they are enough when combined with other bonuses: Daily mission chains, kits, collection sales (when you buy enough items, the ones you didn't buy yet are discounted) and if we go further back - introduction of crystal rewards for ranks and increase of funds due to removal of crystal boxes.

I see what you are saying, but mission chains only work for people who can play every day, kits are (at higher ranks) very expensive (and hard to save up for if you can't play every day), and collection sales only come in when you buy multiple peices of equipment at the same level- something which is challenging for people who can not play alot and earn alot of crystals. What I am trying to say, is that current discounts are heavily favored towards people who can play every day. I'm not saying this is wrong, because, of course, if you put in more work, you deserve better equipment, but I think it is too heavily favored towards those people.

 

In my mind, things were better before the personal discounts update. The sales themselves were larger (40% sales were awesome). Now, we are lucky to get a personal discount that is both above 40% AND have enough crystals AND the PD to be on something we want, instead of before, when we knew the sales were coming, and everything was on sale.

 

Back to this topic, I think that what @LOLKILLERTOTHEDEATH suggested is a solution that would work better for people that cannot play regularly .

So you mean getting 2000 extra crystals a week really helps you buy stuff?

 

Lately, daily missions have been giving supplies, which is annoying becuase they are the easiest way fro crys. Increase of funds yea, but that stilld oesn't help too much and how often do you rank?

 

Also, if I'm an m1 or m2 player, why would I want to waste crys by getting all m1/m2s?

and chances are, until you have very few crystals you don't get discounts, because the system is that way so that you don't get discounts with high amounts of crys.

 

Nothing can make up for a 50% sale because nothing happens at that magnitude. There should be at least 1 50% sale every year, and that's Tanki's Birthday.

 

As goes for missions, after you do about 3-4 days of them, you start only getting supplies, and that is really annoying because Supplies are the reason everything in this game is messed up, here is why

 

Player buys supplies, goes into a match with high funds and joins losing team, winning team becomes losing team and visa versa, then the losing team rages and doesn't get how many crystals they deserved. It all relates to drugging, because missions give free drugs, people don't buy more drugs, people don't buy more drugs then Tanki has less profit because constant drugger noobs are going to be using drugs all the time, they think they don't need to rank fast, because they think this, they don't buy crys and then it starts again

I'd say make this worth while. At 50/50 you get a 100% discount, so 100/50 equals 2. Every micro upgrade drops 2% of the cost so at half way, ypu get it fpr half price.

tbh? Yes .I would much rather remove PDs and (heck) have 40/45% discounts on (most .at least) majors holidays (Christmas. Tanki B-Day . Iron Days.......)

Odd, seeing as that the figures that you mentioned did appear during those celebrations [other than Iron Days, which historically has been a 25% event]. Combined with garage discounts for equipment already purchased, all of the current discounts during sales are quite reasonable, PDs or not.

I have received 5-6 personal discounts, and on at least 5 of them I could have bought the item. On one of them I did.
