Stop whining about Tanki

[SpeedyRailgun 183]

Players are complaining because they want to enjoy the game, and tanki devs only care about money. It's simple. MU update=money milking, premium update was more or less fine, and this paint update=Squeezing every penny out of tankers pockets before they decide to kill this game and make people play TX. TX=a game where everyone will start from ashes, so they expect players to buy more.

dont like them making life easier for buyers? OK! you can support the rest of their life with money, im 100% they will remove all payments if you will ask them. But pay them around 3 000-5 000 in a month for each of them.

Cant afford it? Shut up and play!

You give to tanki real money but they give it to you numbers what you can use to get pixels.

Brilliant. I had no idea that I didn't have to purchase a paint and that I could do very well without it. Thanks for reading my post carefully and paying attention to all the points I mentioned in it. /s

 

Seriously though, you've totally ignored the part where I've mentioned that the main problem is that the value of a paint has been REDUCED and yet it's price has been INCREASED. There is absolutely no logic in that. Yes, I realise that the game belongs to the developers and they can do whatever they want to do with it. It doesn't mean that what they've done is either nice or logical. Spoiler alert: It's neither. Obviously, players ought to feel that they've been screwed over.

Um... It's completely logical. The simple reason the paints have increased prices is because you and I aren't meant to buy them. Super Rich Players are. Earlier, paints were an integral part of the game necessary for everyone. Now they are a piece of cosmetic only meant to show exclusivity, just like XT weapons. It's good for everyone if TO monetises on cosmetic features instead of stuff like equipment pieces and supplies. Try and understand this.

are u realy so dumb??

No, it's just that your English is really bad... to the point he can't understand you

ik my english is bad but post 1 meme multiple times means something...

I said that, Tanki isnt forcing users to buy crystals. Players choose to buy them.

The reason i'm writing this us everyone these days are complaining whining whining whining and about update tanki makes. Daily missions? Players: Its so crap. Premium? Players: Its so not benificial. Paint seperation? Players: Tanki is so stupid and it sucks. You players these days ( not everyone but a majority of you) need stop stop whinign, acting like a 2 year old. There will be ALOT of updates along the way. You players can't go all negative. Think about the positive

It is good that players complain and give feedback, and I'll have you know that most of the complainers don't just give 'Tanki is so stupid and it sucks' as feedback. Lot's are really giving good feedback, so that things can be improved. Also, if  you don't let TO know that you dislike something, how would they know and be able to improve it? 

 

^ Can't say anything truer than that. +1

 

People just don't understand that this isn't their game. It's the developers' game. They do whatever they want and implement what they think will be beneficial. 

Well, it kind of is. Games belong to the players. Without players, there is no game.

As I've stated in my previous posts in this topic (and I won't again), I DO understand that cosmetics are a good way to make money. However, please tell me, how is INCREASING the cost of a product whose value has been DEPRECIATED logical? This is the point people who support this update, tend to deliberately ignore. Sure, it isn't meant for players who aren't super rich. Doesn't affect the fact that you could get them at a fraction of the price with protection earlier. Had it have been something new, I guarantee almost nobody would be complaining. Like the XT update (which I've mentioned earlier as well). To paraphrase your condescending conclusion: Try and understand this.

OMG! Dude... Paints are now a whole new concept! Forget what you knew before about Paint mechanism! This is totally new! Who are you to say that paints have depreciated in value when the role of paints in the game has been completely changed?!

Paints are cosmetic now. We didn't have cosmetic before so your comparison of prices is what is illogical. Basically, the VALUE of paints hasn't depreciated. It's ROLE has been changed. Hence the price change (increase AND decrease) is totally justified.

Previous role: Aesthetics and protection.

Current role: Aesthetics

Yes, there evidently hasn't been any reduction in value. Anyway, don't bother continuing this argument. I'm tired of having to repeat the same points and dealing with a mostly cringe inducing community.

So, let me get this straight: You're okay with Tanki Monetising on cosmetics, but you're not okay with then increasing Paint prices which is basically what monetising means. Huh... Interesting.

Also, while we're on this topic, why don't we demand that equipment prices be changed too? Because you could get the ultimate garage in less than half a million crystals in 2011 (after 10×) but today it costs, more than 10 million! So,why don't we demand that too, right?

Look here, this argument is pointless, okay. Lots of people protested back in 2012 during rebalance and many of them left too. But it didn't make any difference. So, you can either keep whining about it and possibly even leave, or you can you can accept the change and give feedback to make this game even better.

Well, what most staff members and mini-mods don't realise is that people don't hate the fact that paints cost a lot. They hate the fact that paints cost more than their previous prices without the protections. It's like having to pay 10$ for a box when you could get a box of chocolates for 5$ before. I remember that when the XT update come out, there were very few "whiny" comments on it. That's because something NEW was being offered, even though it was expensive. This is just removing value from a product and increasing it's cost. Dumb strategy. Updates like these are what made me lose interest in this game, and why I don't play anymore.

^This ought to answer most of that. Major emphasis is on the part that paints are nothing new. About the rebalance part:

1. I didn't play before the rebalance, therefore I have no idea how much it impacted the game.

2. It also included a major rework in the garage with changes in the tier system.

Look, I don't really care about this game. You can check my ratings and see that I haven't played for a pretty long time because I find the game boring now. You can say that I'm whining, but truth is that I'm just pointing out flaws in the game. And no, this game cannot become "better" for that would imply it had to be good in the first place. Anyway, I'm pretty sure everybody realises that tanki wouldn't last for much longer. Outdated engine, outdated graphics, poor optimization, etc. This update has been released just to earn some more money before they shift to tanki x.

Anyway, if you wish to continue this, you may do so however it would be pointless considering the fact that neither of us would agree with each other and it would end up being an utter waste of time.

The same goes with minecraft.

Minecraft 1.6.4 = Now game is crap! Alpha was better!

1.7.2 this is crap! 1.6.4 was better!

1.8 this is crap! 1.7.x was better!

1.9 This is crap! Combat pdate ruined game! now you cant win against full protection 4 diamond armor using stick and 64 Enchanted golden apples. That is so unbalanced!

1.10 This is even worse than 1.9! (Toggle jump is option but still they complain about it. Or any other dumb reason)

 

Guess what? None of them plays alpha version! all of them plays 1.8/1.9/1.10. Isnt it weird?

 

Minecraft giges option to play alpha and those who thinks alpha was better dont play it.

---

The same goes with Tanki! Everyone complain about tanki updates. 

Maybe tanki should go back to older versions? 

Such as this?

Or you will still say its too new and complicated for your brain!

Actually, I'd like to try that. :0

[The-Operator219 1,929]

I agree entirely.

I think it's equally the player's and developer's fault in my opinion: The developers word things wrong intentionally or not, like "New paints..." which means that yes, we have new paints to buy, but they're not ORIGINAL. And the players for being overhyped about something, but creating a version of it that can't even theoretically exist. For example, EVERYONE was excited about the new paints, but in their mind they imagined perfection. What they got was less than perfection, but still what was promised: New paints were available for purchase.

+0.5  :P

[SpeedyRailgun 183]

 

Okay, NOW I understood what you wrote. Now my question is how does that relate to the whole "wanting and needing money" thing?

Idk maybe they want more money just like everyone else on this planet?

I dont know a single person who says that, he has enought money and he dont need more. Developers do the same. They give you crystals, you give them money. You give them more and more money and they give you more and more crystals. It simple.

 

Actually, I'd like to try that. :0

Does your CPU, GPU and RAM is ready for this? :D

They wont catch in fire?

[The-Operator219 1,929]

Yup.

[AbsoluteZero 3,729]

Can everyone just rejoice in the fact we now have a scrollbar in the shop!

Much Epic, Such Wow :o

[DageLV 940]

:o The paint separation update..

Expensive paints just for looks instead of giving players an advantage in battles.

 

And of course there's XTs.

Well non-buyers are talking all the time about that, paints are too expensive and they are so poor that they cant afford it. They are talking about that, those loks gives them "Advantages" ofc i still dont know what kind of... but based of that, what players say, hey do give them advantage.

[Indian_Tanker 468]

Close the topic Thanks! :D

[Phoenix.Raised 5,992]

I've noticed you've been quite right-wing with your posts.

I know what the term "right wing" means. Slang or not.

 

But, out of curiosity...Why you are using it at the video game forum?

[r_GaIaxy2 8,611]

You are the one whining here. They are angry because of certain reasons which you can't tell. Like I bought a paint of 18 k now its of 5 K

Well they should at least express the reasons behind the anger. Most players just spam the TO chat with hateful comments and think that will make things better. No. You need to give the Devs reasons & feedback and put it somewhere the devs will read it. 

 

Also, players get angry because of the stupidest things. The Shop changes layout and people start raging at tanki saying that it is just a way to get more money... NO, It's a way to make the game interface more user-friendly. It won't affect you if you don't use the shop so why complain???
