From what it looks like, every link is clickable and gives you the old version of the MU table with old prices and values.

In case the link doesn't work, here's the values for Zeus, which you can start with: http://tnkscr.net/jORQed.png

i can't give you all of them due to i don't or never took photos of my garage for your proof.. but i can say for  100% truth that invader was 18% protection for it and now a single protection only gives you 10% .. will post my photo for proof

 

:wub: I shall miss the old paints.. :(

What will be the next update? They will send a hand-written letter containing a binary database of the equipment of all the players in my battle? Oh wait, I forgot that the average age in tanki is 11, average IQ is 80 so they want to remove everything that gives an advantage to clever and experienced players.

Le reality of TO.

Dear mafioso, you are talking about balance (making BP oneshot) when your helper paint worth as much as Silver, for which AK worked for 3-4 years?

To be honest, 3-4 years ago when I wasn't even thinking of applying for mod, I obviously wanted to have every special paint like other players. And back then I only really cared about the status the paint gives you and I didn't even know that you get  this OP protection on it. If I was given a choice between Helper and Silver, I would go for Silver simply because it's a more valuable paint and less people have it, therefore you have more prestige for being one of the owners.

 

In fact, if Helper provided more protection than Silver (let's say 20% vs. 15%), I'd still chose Silver because it gives the owner a higher status.

 

My point is, I don't really understand why you obsess so much about a tiny decrease in the paint's protection, when in fact the most important part about owning the paint is not the protection, but the fact that other players will recognise you as one of the best players on the game.

Pretty much, this Update is going on a path as Premium did. 

[PhD_Killer 0]

There are two Badger T-G protections. They are not the same.

 

They are to lazy to even answer...

Master Sergeant protection is for Firebird, Twins & Freeze.

First Sergeant protection is for Smoky, Firebird & Freeze.

 

WHY HIGHER RANK PROTECTION dont have different name? Badger T-H????

Its a great idea tho, game will be sooo fun,

I'll go create a topic on I&S asap,

"give us all data of the player in binary code on screen" .-.

Welp, to buy Zeus and get it to full 50/50/50 you needed a total of around 1 million crys (250 000+749 890), while to get the same protection with an identical module (Badger T-G) you now need 1 150 000 crystals (250 000+900 000), which is a 15% price increase  :mellow:

 

I suddenly don't like this update anymore.

[austen_pierce 1,948]

In other games - maybe. Tanki devs still try to keep this game from turning into pay-to-win, therefore no item bought for real money should ever give a gameplay advantage over others. In this game you spend money to save time grinding and to buy fancy good-looking cosmetics to stand out and look cool. You don't buy victory.

I agree with this. Not to brown-nose, but speed ups and cool downs and other waiting period features mean there is only so fast money can be applied to a player's garage. No matter how much you have in your garage you can only wear one combo at a time on the battlefield. Of course buyers have more choices and can adapt to what they see on the field which makes play easier, but does not guarantee a win

No kidding.

This is out of context but will there be mop this year? 

[tankkiller37 13]

Hello,

 

can some one explain to me, why I don't see Kodiak T-D M3 in my garage? Between what other protection is it located?

Furthermore I have two Badger T-G M3 in my garage, one for the rank of General and one for the rank of Marchal.

The last question is about the Grizzly series. I can see an H and and J, but no I. Has it been skipped?

It was removed because of this:

So basically every Triple module costs 1 150 000 to buy and fully upgrade, therefore any paint that could previously be bought and upgraded for less was cheaper before the update than it is now. Thanks devs for not mentioning this anywhere in the news. It's not like a 150k price increase matters much, right?  -_-
 

what made you change your mind on this.. can we ask this sir..

I had nothing against the paint price increase because that makes perfect sense - a fair way for devs to earn more crystals, and add more ways for buyers to get special items without affecting gameplay balance. But the increase of module MUs without even mentioning it anywhere - THAT's just not cool.

[Supernatural 2,053]

 best players on the game.

And that's why they should deserve more. And that's why the formats they earned those paints from shouldn't be killed. ;)

The information for the graph is still contained in the main page but you need to know how to get at it.  I use real data when I post on these issues.

 

That's not an argument. Guesses don't get us anywhere.

The whole art of war consists of guessing at what is on the other side of the hill.

 

It kept repeating because of the daily rotation of the earth and during certain times of the day more people play because that's when they are up, so peak time is usually when people in Europe and the US are awake. Don't ignore the facts just because you don't like them. If you like just graph the player numbers on the sign in page. It looks exactly like the graph they use to post but with much lower numbers than just a few years ago. If the numbers keep falling you will eventually get to a point of unsustainability and the game will die. And one of the main reasons is that no one is listening.

Yet there was no sign of decreasing players on the graph. I'd assume they'd only take it down after it was clearly visible that numbers started decreasing, but that never happened.

They took down the polls at the same time. I think they just decided to take down the useless stuff from the homepage, being that the player counter and the polls were both close to useless.

Any idea how much my garage is worth?

 

 

 

 

 

 

Yes, that's my garage and anyone can see that I've supported tanki financially over the years.

I would actually pay for new modules if it was done right but as I've already said, I can't even bring myself to play, nevermind pay.

 

The newer price increases are no doubt purposefully over-inflated. As with almost every controversial update, tanki do these types of things only to recant slightly later on, usually accompanied by, "we listened to your feedback and...". We then get a chorus of "hoorahs" from the forum.

 

What a fickle bunch we are!

That's just how propaganda works. Give them worse, make it to normal, and expect them to be thankful.

Thank me for not killing you

[LeIouch_Vi_Britannia 6,163]

what made you change your mind on this.. can we ask this sir.. 

 

Well, due to experience (not on tanki forum ofc), when you are a mod, specially a forum mod,

You have to focus mostly on the forum, and when such a bad update comes, there is a huuuge uproar as you can see

And maf was pretty busy trying to answer all the angry peeps here xD

But when he got time to go have a check on the garage, he saw what "great deed" have the devs done lol,

Well ofc, every game is going towards p2w these days, tanki's going is nothing new, tho they still cover it with "we dont want to go p2w" but as we all know, its a big joke
