[Declined] Premium Account - Disable/Enable Button

[RIDDLER_8 5,558]

I have a brilliant idea for players that have Premium Accounts.

 

The Tanki Online developers should create and release an update for Premium Accounts. This update is a button where players can enable or disable the Premium Account. When players decide they want to stop playing Tanki Online for any random time, for example, a few minutes, hours, days, weeks, months or even years, they can turn off the Premium Account so that the remaining time for Premium Account does not run out.

 

If, for example, I have 1 day of Premium Account, and I decide not to play today, I can stop the countdown time by disabling the Premium time left so that I can resume in a few days or even years.

 

By having a button where players (of any rank) can turn on and off the Premium Account time switch is a good idea for stopping players wasting their Premium Account times when they do not play Tanki Online.

 

This on and off Premium Account button is to enable and disable the Premium Account only. When players wants to stop playing Tanki Online they can turn off the Premium Account before they leave. Players can resume anytime later by turning on the Premium Account button.

First of all this will make Premium accounts a lot more expensive. If you are able to pause the premium whenever you want, it means that 100% of your premium time will be used for playing. So right now when paying for 30 days of premium, an average person might play 2-3 hours a day, meaning that they will use only about 10% of their potential Premium time. That means that if your idea was to be implemented, then the prices would be changed so that you would get only 3 days of premium for 10 euros instead of 30. And people would never buy that because it seems like a terrible deal.

 

Second - this system can be easily abused. All you need to do is activate the premium 5 seconds before a game end and you still get double crystals for it, even if premium was off the whole time. Similarly, if you want to use the paint you can just activate premium, enter battle, turn off premium and still use the paint until the game ends.

[RIDDLER_8 5,558]

No, this is not what I meant.

 

What I mean is that, for example, if players get 3 hours of Premium Account for completing a Daily Mission, then, if those players choose to play Tanki later on (a few days or more later) they will need to have a button to turn off the hours left of countdown.

 

Players can stop the running out of time of Premium by using the turn off/on button. This way, players will now waste their remaining Premium time. When players come back and play Tanki Online anytime later, they can turn on the Premium Account and carry on where the (amount of Premium time left) and continue to play using Premium.

 

The purpose of this (on and off button) is to stop players wasting time of Premium when they are not playing Tanki Online.

[RIDDLER_8 5,558]

At the moment, I am not playing Tanki Online, so my Premium Account hours are running out for nothing.

[austin112233 117]

I strongly support this idea, great job!

[fordmustang12345 3,910]

OMG .RIDDLER_8 has an idea i like!!!!!!!!! *dies from shock *

[fordmustang12345 3,910]

But yeah i love this idea.partly cause ive had a premium mission sitting in my mission thing for 2 months that i havent been able to use

[Maf 32,339]

No, this is not what I meant.

 

What I mean is that, for example, if players get 3 hours of Premium Account for completing a Daily Mission, then, if those players choose to play Tanki later on (a few days or more later) they will need to have a button to turn off the hours left of countdown

I know what you mean and I explained why it can't happen. Too many people will abuse it by turning on premium seconds before their game ends. That way they can get double crystal rewards and turn off Premium right away. So in the 3 hours of Premium they have from a single mission they can get basically infinite double crystals from battle rewards if they activate Premium only for a few seconds when the game ends.

[RIDDLER_8 5,558]

I do not think that the on and off Premium Account button is a problem because, recently, the prices of paints have gone up since the Paint Separation Update.

 

For example, the Zeus Paint used to cost 250,000 crystals and now it is 500,000 crystals. Double the price. Africa paint is now 400,000 crystals rather than 300,000 crystals.

 

This price inflation sky rocketed and it makes it virtually impossible for players to buy turrets, hulls and especially paints and protection modules.

 

The price inflation of paints is also breaking apart the game's balance. Before the Paint Separation update, every price of turrets, hulls and paints were perfectly balanced.

 

If players, for example, buy the biggest crystal pack available, it is not even enough to buy the Zeus paint.

 

What I am saying here is that the prices of every paint you buy including micro upgrades are ridiculously high. So the on and off Premium account button will benefit players so that they earn double the amount of crystals. Earning double the amount of crystals is beneficial to re-balance the Tanki Online economy and to make it once again possible for players to buy paints and micro upgrade them.

 

In my point of view, paint separation and modules update is useless because the modules does not give players more protection and players cannot manually add of remove paint protections from those modules.

[RIDDLER_8 5,558]

However, the Clay paint has gone down in price. This is good for players that wants to buy the Clay paint.

 

In general, the price inflation has caused huge problems for players when they want to buy paints.

 

Even a 50% discount now, is not enough because of this price inflation.

 

Please do something to take down the prices of paints back to their original prices.

 

Thank you.

I'm sorry but I do not understand what does this idea regarding usage of Premium Account time has to do with the new prices of paints and modules?

[RIDDLER_8 5,558]

Well, this idea of the Premium account on and off button has a benefit of re-balancing of the new, more expensive prices.

[RIDDLER_8 5,558]

Currently, the Tanki Online economy is out of balance because of the price inflation on paints. To re-balance the economy of Tanki Online, players must earn twice (x2) the amount of crystals for every battle they play.

 

Double crystal funds must be a permanent if Tanki's economy has to be re-balanced once again. Currently, prices of paints and modules are too expensive. On average, they cost twice the amount of crystals than before.

 

We need permanent double crystal funds to re-balance the economy of Tanki Online.

[Gomuhimu 5]

Make the paints also m0, m1, m2, m3....

 

like paint will be available in a group(Natur1, Nature2, Animal, Electric, Fire)

 

name                             m0          m1         m2      m3

Nature 1 consists >>    Orange - Desert - Mars - Africa

Nature 2 consists >>     Green - Forester - Savanna - Urban

Animal 1 consists >>    Black - Carbon - Chainmil - Rhino

Electric consists >>      Pixel - Spark - Atom - Nano

Metallic consists >>      Grey - Metallic - Lead - Blacksmith

Lightening consists >>  Storm - Electra - Spark - Zeus

FIre  consists >>          Red - Lava - magma - Inferno

 

Yeah i am KIDDING.......... or not :P

Are you suggesting a whole new rebalance of Tanki economy / prices or usage time of Premium accounts?

 

As for the new price of paints that are really overpriced (I agree with that) did you saw this:

 

 

 

A few known issues :

 

Tankers, we're listening and thanks for your invaluable feedback on a couple few things we missed out on. Rest assured, we will soon be addressing each one of them. Here's a little list :

• Requests to review pricing of certain paints deemed too excessive*

 

 

 

I am asking this for a reason, because if funds must be permanently double, as you suggest. Are you aware that permanent raising of fund by 100% will affect the whole economy of this game and not just the prices of the paints?

[generalpotato_PRO 1,076]

liek if ur eyes hurt evrytiem e.e

[DESTROYER_13 1,019]

I liked, because my eyes hurt. I mean, seriously, why does he have to use yellow writing? There is no point at all, we can all see his writing, whether it is grey, white, or yellow. 

 

That is why RIDDLER_8 is quite annoying.

 

Just stop using yellow writing, man!

its not infinite if seconds are still running out

[Maf 32,339]

its not infinite if seconds are still running out

If you get good enough and activate Premium only for 3 seconds at a time just so that you have it the moment a battle ends, you can stretch the 3 hours to be used at the end of 3600 battles. Assuming that every battle is 15 minutes, that's 900 hours of gameplay with double crystals. By the time you play 900 hours you are guaranteed to have another 3 hour premium mission waiting to be activated. So yeah, pretty much infinite.

[LeIouch_Vi_Britannia 6,163]

The point of premium isnt to get all of the thing you know, prem is more of a deal,

"I pay you, tanki devs, x$ to give me premium status for a month, so i can have benefits whenever I play, and it would be going on when I dont play".

Lets say, you get a membership in a gym, for 2 months, and you can go anytime you feel like it,

Be it 1 day a week or 5 days a week, it doesnt matter to them, its a sealed contract.

That you can go there anytime you want within the dealed time, but you cant put in on pause.

That can be modified not to be changeable mid battle, tho stil an unacceptable idea.

[RIDDLER_8 5,558]

OK. I will stop using yellow and white text. From now on I will only write in gray text.

[RIDDLER_8 5,558]

You folks must do something.

 

The prices of paints and other purchasable items in the shop must go down. Prices of paints and other items cost more than double of what they would normally be.

 

This cannot go on any more. Prices of all paints and other items must be at (least 50% or cheaper).

Your arguement is invalid. You suggest some "pause" button for premium, then base it on the recent update?

I know and agree its a bad update, there is no questioning that, but the thing you say is invalid nontheless.

If you dont like to buy a paint, just dont buy it. The actual price increase is the 150k increase in full MUing paints.

Other than that, you are not forced to buy the paints, I dont know many other people like me, who bought the paints for the sake of their beauty, not protection.

[RIDDLER_8 5,558]

I know that I am not forced to buy paints, but a pause button for Premium is necessary so that players do not waste their Premium hours when they do not play Tanki Online.

 

When players decide they had enough playing time of Tanki Online, they can quit. But before they quit, they can pause the Premium hours so that players do not waste away their Premium account hours.
