Paint Separation Update

[Maf 32,300]

Lol your kidding right??

Why would I be kidding? The protection values of the modules don't change, so why would they become more expensive?

 

Can someone Explain what will happen to Veteran and Silver?

The protections will be removed.

The paint separation from the protection will be neither here nor there.  I am unconcerned with appearance of the hull just as long as it blends with the background, to be inconspicuous.  I can see why the developers might want paints with only 3 protections and not 4.  It would probably mean more destruction because of susceptibility against a greater range turrets.  I think that this is to make tanks more vulnerable over all.  Perhaps new modules might offer something better but at this stage can not say.  Usually updates are not better for player but ways to increase revenue by reducing effectiveness of equipment or promoting a weapon that has low popularity.

 

By far the greatest disappointment and what will ruin the game by taking away the spontaneity, player experience and and knowledge, including interpretation of the phycology of player behavior within the game.  The capability of monitoring a players fighting capability, MU status module capability and  so on is just ridiculous.  I am uncomfortable with this aspect of the development for other reasons also .  It has most probably been incorporated to create player anxiety, forcing players to either spend more and more money on updates and new modules because they will see on the screen how deficient their tank might be.  That or create situations where players just self destruct and leave the game which happens all too much as it is. 

 

I find it very hard to believe that Tanki staff members, admin and developers are unaware at how unhappy people have been here especially when this update first came to our knowledge.  Their has been an ongoing thread expressing many very negative view on the matter.  It is quite surprising that development time as been wasted on an update that will prove to be unpopular instead of attending to very well known problems within the game.  Tanki is loosing players,  have fewer servers, they often empty or only have few players.  There definitely appears to be a big problem with player retention.  It seems very strange, that this sort of update has even been contemplated. 

 

I have come to realize over time that Tanki never goes back on an update, no matter how badly it has been received.  So I guess, that will be it.  It will be interesting to find out what happens over the next year or so with the games survival.  I hope for those that stay and especially for the employed staff that tanki carries on and that I am wrong because essentially at its core  is an enjoyable game except for multing, hacking and bullying behavior.

Euhm nice update...

but this wil also make me think twice before buying a kit... cuz you wil make most of the time no profit of them cuz after the update paints have no protections so i think they should add modules or just remove all paints in them... but my last paint would be Clay but im not buying a paint with zero protection for like 300k even for me that buys cry is insane... even with 50% sale on paints i think i'd still dont buy it...

The protections will be removed.

:mellow:

[Lankbouv 6,347]

it's hardly fair is it loooooool, here play tournaments for paint 22% protection but we will take this paint away now haha GG

[Extant 154]

One of the worst updates ever... I just don't see the point in this.

[Extant 154]

 

The protections will be removed.

Are you kidding? Wow.

Right now it's only worth buying paints with 4 protections, because that's the only way you'll be able to get a Legacy module (they won't be possible to buy tomorrow). But there is no reason to think that modules will be more expensive than paints, so if I were you I would save the crystals and wait until modules go on sale during a special event like Tanker's Day or Christmas.

 

This really is unacceptable

Did you completely ignore every single reply I said about this above?!

I repeat: it's likely that developers will add something else instead of protections to reward players for their hard work, but for now the special paints will have no protection just so they can fit in with the rest of them. A "universal module" with protection from all weapons will not be added.

Of course I read what you said but I AM saying that no less than 22% against all turrets is acceptable.

Don't worry, I am sure the devs won't disappoint. They value eSport and will do something about it, as said in the first post.

[Maf 32,300]

why would all my protection on my m4 be removed when i paid for it in full .. this is wrong so wrong on so many levels

What are you talking about? The module you'll get from Lumberjack paint tomorrow will have the exact same protections as you have on the paint now.

Read the quote he answered. He was talking about Special paints, like Silver and Veteran.

Didn't expect it so soon after Tankapocalyse.  :o

That's right why they added now, so people don't talk about server crashes and other bugs. And if someone didn't notice, this 8 hours or even more will be taken away from our 'compensation' premium time.

tanki lagging

[FullLife 10]

Does this mean u can use railgun protection paints and play XP/BP format if u remove the protection ?

Yes, you can use Prodigi if you put Lumberjack protection on it, for example.

You really have to criticise everything that Tanki does for us, dont you?
