Partial micro-upgrades give a partial discount on next modification

Not all of us buy and most of us don't get so many discounts anyways.

Guess what? I never had to buy crystals to have enough. The only time I've ever bought was 15$ of crystals during Iron Days, and I used it all on a kit. All of my personal discounts were after that.

Yea, PD's are useful. IF YOU BUY CRYS. Since not everyone wastes money in this game, it makes it useless, and every single PD I ever received has been when I can't afford something, so that I buy, but no, I won't waste money here. In the amount of money (20 USD) I can buy 30 k crys which is nothing, but on my favorite game called contract wars, with that kind of money, I can buy a total 10,000 GP, which is more than enough to get 10 guns, or weapons, but in 30k I can barely afford a paint in Tanki. I spend way more on contract wars because its more fun, you get discounts everyday and it is challenging, unlike Tanki, the developers rarely do anything stupid. Things in CW are much cheaper

 

You guys think Tanki has generous sales (or had) in Contract wars, many times there will be random sales up to 99% off, like just last month there was a sale on Noveske Diplomat (tier 6 GP weapon) which costed 500, a whole 52.48% less. Bee fore that an 80% sale on a Sniper Rifle worth 1200 GP.

 

My point is why should I have to waste money in Tanki when there are better games to spend money in? Sure I want to play, but that doesn't mean I want to waste money here.

Yea, then you did.

 

If you are not short of crys on PD's, you're part of the minority who can utilize PD's, what about the rest of us? chances are you play for many hour on this game, not all of us can waste so many hours.

I love how you keep assuming stuff about me. No, I don't play Tanki for hours and hours each day. I used to be able to spend maybe an hour per day if I was lucky, sometimes an hour and a half, but since I started my clan I rarely spend more then half an hour in-game per day.

So? Just because its easy fro you to earn crystals easily, I think you get good missions, tell if I'm wrong, not everyone else can at higher ranks especially, because at higher ranks battles flip really fast because of drugger noobs

Good missions? Some weeks yes, some weeks no. It's all random.

Going back on topic, I dont see how the newer MU system made anything better other than getting next modification free(not really free cause it costs almost double)? Can anyone tell me? Didn't make it cheaper or less time, only made it hard to upgrade the part of the item that you really want (damage or armor for me), and it took away the discounts for parameters. In my opinion, MUs were better before

I spend hours budgeting and calculating what ill buy and when. This is my point. Think before you buy. If you do that your financial problems will dissapear

I calculate, I still have the same amount of crystals. What we are saying is, we want to MU enough to not be under-powered while we wait to unlock next modification. With a discount after a certain amount of MUs, this would still be more expensive than just saving for M3, but it would be worth it, and  a lot cheaper than fully MUing.

 

P.S.

You say this system is easier to calculate and yet it still takes you hours? How long did it take before, days? In the wikithey have a whole list ofMU pricing, so it is actually really easy to calculate with a calculator. Should only take a few mins

So I had an idea, when  you micro upgraded a turret, earlier there used to be the discount thing like more attributes you upgrade, the higher discount, so maybe, I think devs should make a system for the current one

 

So maybe it should b e like how many ever steps you have done is =% discount, so if I had 6 steps done, I get a discount of total 6%, but if I have 25 steps done, I get 25% discount. See what I mean? and if you fully upgrade your item, you get it for free but if you do 49 steps, you get 49%, so 49% is the max possible.

 

Please don't say that no need cause of Personal Discount because Personal Discounts don't actually happen, I believe they were implemented last year? and I personally, from logging on almost everyday to say "hi" I noticed that I have only recieved a total 3 Personal Discounts, which is not actually making life easier, and as goes for whole sale value discounts, well, what if I'm not into collecting a bunch of stuff to just keep? That makes very little sense. I hope that people don't dumbly argue about Personal Discount and Whole sale discounts, cause they do nothing.

 

Its basically how the system used to be before the update that ruined Mu's. Hope this gets implemented.

I suggested an idea almost exactly like this but every microupgrade you buy gets you a 2% discount on the modification for that item since there are 50 upgrades of each modification for each item. It would help free players get that item sooner.

Translation: use only m0 smoky and hunter and spend not a single crystal till you get to the m3 ranks. ;)

Updated September 13th 2017:


Idea Declined


 


B) Well the idea is quite simple to understand! B)


Suppose you have micro upgraded your Thunder m1 20/50 then the price for upgrading it to M2 should decrease by some amount.  :ph34r:


This is important as if some people  have micro upgraded  a turret/hull and now wish to directly buy the modification they should get a discount on it. ;)  :P :P ;)


 


:) Give a like if you agree and if you have objection reply below!  :)

I saw a screenshot somewhere on RU forum and also my friend got 100% for Dictator. Don't have any other proof.

 

The fact that you don't have crystals is your own fault. Since the introduction of PDs it became pretty obvious that always having at least 100k crystals is a good idea, so that in case you get a personal discount for an item you want, you'll be able to buy it right away.

Sales are MUCH BETTER than PDs, PDs are meant to be "sales that happen only for you" but are very inconvenient. I save crystals for sales and blow them all in them. And I do purchase good stuff..

 

Even if PDs were a good system, this doesn't undermine the validity of this suggestion.

 

Edit: Oops, didn't read page 2 XD

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

I'd love to get Shaft M2

 

Or Hornet M2

 

Won't be Underpowered
