Paint Separation Update

[betta115 21]

One more thing to add... I respectfully request that you bring back the special protections on the champion, silver, veteran paints etc. Although I am no esports player I ask this because these people deserve special protections like the always had.

This is a great update. :0)               (I only hope it's not adding to the dreadful increase in server lag we've seen in the last week?)

 

We did ask for this for a number of reasons:

No1, we can now choose the cosmetic look of our tank - to suit our mood, camouflage, lots of reasons.

No2, we can wear holiday paint without being totally exposed!

No3. we can choose are protection module and even mine protection.

No4. we no longer have lost crystals in paints we can no longer use.

No5, in XP/BP battles we will have less tanks wearing Forester.

Yes, you might do that, because you got both paints and protections. Those who enter M3 ranks now will just save up for protection modules and will not buy paints for many months, since they give no advantage and cost same amount of crystals (or even more) as M3 turret/hull. What you will see will be: old players with 4-protection modules and many paints and new players with green paint. Yes, you might be happy about the update.

While many may be change-averse as usual, I liked the idea (separating aesthetics from functionality makes sense and is something done in other online games), and the update looks pretty exciting so far ^_^

I think Tanki are right to force us to pick a module for battle and we can change module during battle for the cost of one re-spawn and about 40 seconds.

This means even the wealthy and Gismos will have some weakness in their armor.

We will have to choose modules carefully through the mid ranks to save from wasting crystals.

 

No6, and probably the best reason for the update, more tankers will buy paints and modules with real money - this helps Tanki stay in business.

and the more money Tanki has the better the game will be and the less dependent they will be on sales of Supplies Kits.

 

At present sales of supplies kits causes 'unbalance' on the battlefield because not all players can afford to use garage drugs full time and nothing in Tanki balances garage drug use for each side, i.e. in garage drugs battles one side simply uses more than the other - so the losing side quits.  Garage drugs battles are HardStyle fights which most often quickly flip into one sided battles with the losers being spawn killed and unable to get to the drop zones.

 

HardStyle fights do not suit Wasps - they do favour Vikings.

 

The sooner Tanki can afford to lose sales by increasing the price of Supplies Kits - the sooner we get more of the relatively balanced battles we enjoy the most.

 

Or ideally Tanki would show the amount of garage drugs used by each player on the scoreboard and so embarrass the over-users.  Sadly this will also cause sales of Supplies Kits to go down and hence, Tanki needs enough money from other sources to be able to do this.

 

Even more ideally: - we limit all tanks to 10 drugs per 15 minutes - I think this is the best compromise and will lead to good strategic decision making in the use of your garage drugs.

 

To test these ideas out, make these last 2 ideas into OPTIONS on battle setup on random days each week - and just see how popular they are?

 

 

-

High ranks rely on supplies to help them win battles, such as capturing a flag or helping your team win

It is peoples decisions for how much supplies they should use, Anyways 10 drugs/15mins isnt enough.

Will it be possible to press ''R'' while respawning?

strange is open chat not a area for us to talk as players about things next to the forum or pm...

Russia is run by a dictator. Didn't you know? Dictatorship isn't a choice, tanki seem to follow this theroy. Communism isn't an option. Do as your told young JEDI. ;]

Guys I appreciate Tanki Online's idea behind it but i dont like few things about it.

1. All paints elements should be cheaper adn lesser than 40k crustals as they are only for looks!

2. Now Garage wont open quickly

3. And the new symbols representing the turrets in protection area are really awkward.

4. The names of protection like T-B and so on are so difficult to memories.

5. Packages of 35 protection from all should not be introduced it should be same like it was before. For example Zeus go 50 from 25 from smoky and 25 from freeze but now its all 35. Its really a bad idea to do that !

6. Pressing R in front of the players is the idea but what to do if the player is in long range battle how would he know abt the others protection.

7. Lagging is increased in servers.

 

Otherwise the idea of new update is great !

Worsest update ever keep it up and more players will leave tanki including me too

[s1s1-9elap-Qu 0]

paint without protection now so high cost, after buy paint without protection player need buy module for protection and is mean need more crystals for player and is mean DEVELOPERS start GREEDY,, DEVELOPERS TRY MAKE PLAYERS BUY MORE CRYSTALS AGAIN AND AGAIN

stop make new stupid update, contest or whatever some new,, just focus fix ur weak server,, just focus fix lag noob developers
 

[boyice 18]

 

yea keep going and make the game die 

I have to agree banning this many people isent the right thing to do..

anyways I think this is the worst update Ive seen since years.. the paint ZEUS costs 500k when it now only gives looks and the protections are gone. no 1 is that crazy to use 500k just for looks -_- and where is the premium module??? premium gives 15% from everything but I don't see any module which gives us the 15% from everything :mellow: .​ in the V-LOG you guys made it sound like it was pretty usefull while when it was launched into the game, it seemed just like another way of wasting crys. No 1 will buy paints now just the modules because by buying paints you wont get anything but looks. So I would like the paints and protections to be joined again and the module tab to be removed thanks :)​ or lower the paint prices to less than 50k becz they dont give us an advantage in the game just better looks

[antillis 1]

personally not bothered about new update my spending cash on here has ended ......but you could sort out server lag that would be appreciated

I only like the update of that R button and that's all.. So I have a like integrated into that button. Yes im noob :lol: but only adding that R button function was all I wanted, not this foolish separation :(

I hate the "R" part too because everyone would know how much MU on have on my equipments.... :angry:

 

This should NOT have been revealed in a battlefield!!!

I hate thi update

and all my freinds too

please let com first

[HichigoShiiro 4,378]

 

Before: "oh that guy has 25% against my gun, ok"

 

now: "oh I wonder what that guy has, let me take my time to press R while shooting him and trying to avoid getting shot"

Seems like the chat is more intense than battles these days LMAO

[antillis 1]

lol well admin you hit a nerve with this 1 lol

[distroyer746 0]

i think this update is bad idea i know many middle rank players who were saving for there kits but with this update and since the paints become so expensive ( 500k :/) they don't want to continue playing and me especially i wanted paladin kit who was at 290k but now 470k !! i don't say the update is bad but the price of paints is not good they should review this because for me now buying during sales is better thn buying a kit expensive just because there is a paint who gives you a different lokk and no protection and that's cost so much , i used to like tnai who was a free to play but now i don't think many players will continue to play

[Altarferrum2 0]

will there be a discount for this? eg. tanker's day

[FullLife 10]

Its wise to buy clay before it goes expensive again

[I.ZEUS.I 865]

nice update,

 

 but the price is a big high for lower ranks

 

guys u need to get use to it before.

 

i think this update has bring better game balance,

 

hmm old paint will not be in use so ofen now as it has some draws to it.

 

old generalissimo has weakness now.

 

and still some paint are really high prices like zeus paint, come on tanki who will buy a paint just of the color for a freaking 500k crys??

 

the kit prices looks more fairly now, just for a couple of kit that makes the prices so high because of paint, that is beyond attainable.

 

please up-date the wiki, so that we can have a better understanding of the new updated.

 

Thanks Tanki :)
