The new SHOP and new paints are in the game

[Bydo 20,119]

On the first page it says that eight new paints will be added to the garage, two of which will be premium only. So I'm sorry that I figured at least six of 'em would be normal paints like the others.

you could be right i have no clue for what it will be.. so lets see when the update happens i hope there good ones.. for now im not buying anything ..

 

thanks for correcting me on this

nice i liket :D

[Achilleus 156]

Hmmm... these paints are probably for Gissimos and very high ranks so not that excited.

[Ujustlostbad 0]

Cannot wait for this update! :D

[Scorpenstein 159]

So it's an update for buyers, and some additions to the most useless thing since the Blue Sphere : 400K cosmetic paint.

 

THE PAINTS ARE RIDICULOUS PRICES UPDATE THEM ALL MAXIMUM PRICE 10 K

 

THEY DO ZERO. PAINTS ARE WORTH LITTLE MORE THAN ZERO

 

 

I use Metallic now, or Black, or White on winter maps.

 

Literally nothing here for me.

[Scorpenstein 159]

Oh and by the way, fix the kit prices to show they have no modules any more.

 

You are crippling lower rank non buyers.

 

On a plus point : I love seeing other tankers % protection. Makes it easy to kill them.

 

And I love using any paint with any module. VERY GOOD. 

 

Just fix the paint prices for those who like useless pretty things.

You don't have to sell your soul. You could always approach your bank manager for a loan!

This game is extremely edumicational I'll have you know!

 

If a tanker borrows £400 at 5% compound interest over 3 years in order to by Zeus paint, how much does he pay back in total.

i have a question, if we buy the premium paint will we get to keep it if our prem expires or only if we have prem?

[The-Littel-Prince 208]

no more admin pls gold 

just rich kid plz gold

[kingbilal70 35]

Seems as though Tanki wants us to buy crystals again :/

You don't buy premium paint, it is available for use WHEN YOU HAVE PREMIUM.

 

So yeah, when prem expires, you can't access the paint any more.

He meant the paints that only premium can buy

Tankers!

 

The new shop will be in the game tomorrow. In it, you’ll be able to purchase a variety of crystal packages, as well as Premium Account time.

 

Additionally, the garage will feature 8 brand new paints (two of them only be available for Premium users) for giving your tank a cool new look. Two of these paints will also be added to the shop’s shelves at a later date.

 

Make sure you check out the new shop and paints tomorrow, and don’t forget to share your thoughts about them in the forum!

awesome this is cool

[ARron529 0]

the best thing

[meanoldfart2 2]

some of these changes and add on's are making it harder for a new tanker to figure out. and making it more difficult to set what you as a tanker would like....................... sorry i think it has been a waste of time 

[BR1N6.M3.TH3.H0R1Z0N 16]

Nobody cares about 8 new paints because they dont have protections anymore :)

[tanksalad 70]

If Tanki released a new map (which would be great), there would be guys on here complaining... This map is useless to me -- Tanki just wants to get more players so they can make even more money! Get rid of this map or I AM GOING TO LEAVE!!!

[HaloScorpionV2 438]

Will you start accepting Interac payments again?

[tanksalad 70]

And a new map costs how much exactly?

It costs the same as you would spend on a paint that you don't buy.

The players complaining, like myself, are actually wishing for more players. We wish for a successful game but our frustrations are borne out from tanki's inability to deliver it. They basically keep making bad decisions that don't address the real problems this game suffers from.

 

Instead of fixing lag or coming down hard on mult-like sabotage, they bring out buggy updates that nobody cares about and before those bugs are fixed, more buggy updates are released.

 

What map would you like? Have you played them all? I've only played 20% of them if I'm being honest.

I totally agree it would be nice if they would fix all the technical issues. It just seems to me there are a lot of players who unrightly attack Tanki for trying to monetize this game, like they don't understand that, like any game of this caliber, it's a business. And perhaps some of the bugs are not as easily fixed as it may seem.

 

Many may not care about the paints, but if helps Tanki make money without making the game pay-to-win, it's a brilliant idea and benefits everybody.

 

I'm actually kind of stunned you haven't played all the maps. There can never be enough maps in my opinion. I just saw a thread the other day on map ideas, some people made some awesome ones, there are youtube vids of them, I can't see why they were never adopted. I personally would like more big maps and ones with a good vertical aspect to them, like Madness and Skyscrapers.

[tanksalad 70]

Yep, nothing. And a new map doesn't change anything about the game. Whereas, the paint update has...as you can see on the huge thread about it in this section, with loads of people complaining about valid problems, without which Tanki wouldn't be able to sort those particular problems out.

The paint/protection update changes the game, yes. But adding eight new paints, which is what I'm really talking about, doesn't change anything, and yet there seem to be people here who are opposed to it.

Because "omg they spend their time making new paints instead of fixing lags ffs i hate devs im leaving"

[Confused 10]

LOL

[Domminion 25]

OK Here is the truth. I'm keen to see more than 6 options in the buying crystals section for one. For two forget about players buying new paints! At least new expensive ones. Why bother for the looks?! Tanki you've just plunged your most popular paints down the drain. Do you honestly think anyone will buy Zeus for "the looks". I was amazed on XT purchases, but I get it some players are bored and have nothing else to buy! For sure they are not buying crystals from Tanki though.

 

Now that the kits got changed, why can't we see a change in the paint of the kit? How the f do we know if there is a module included, when it only says Paint? I don't care about the paint any more, so do a lot of other players. Get real and plan your updates properly. I did buy "Boreas" kit for 250k so not complaining, I almost got the "Master of Taiga" for 260k or something but missed it by a few hours.

 

WHY the "R" key for stats??? Why not "Shift"? Ask some gamers man, do some research. Not good at all. Do you expect us to sit on the R key constantly.. Forget about checking stats on small maps, it's all bunched together. Where will the beauty of the unknown go now, not knowing what MU is your opponent's hull/turret/paint - again down the drain. I had Dictator m2 with MU 48/50, who would have guessed? Now everyone will know.

 

In all it's starting to spiral down and unless something magnificent happens to the game, I'm not sure players will stick around.
