My opinion about the Gold Box Supply.

Right. How badly do you really need 1k crystals? Enough to sacrifice the battle fund for your team?

Yup, I totally agree. It's making the game worse.

Heated Poly CP battle. Both sides were capping the point only to lose it moments later. Twice someone on my blue team dropped the gold box - you can tell by the "'PLAYER' has dropped a Gold Box" message. Both times, the red team scrambled to catch the gold allowing blue the edge they needed to own the point long enough to win the battle and the associated large battle fund.

 

Make sense?

Sometimes it shows "Gold Box will be dropped soon" even though a player drops it  :wacko:

I was in a gold rain were 30 golds dropped.

 

And I got 0..... -_-

Kungur is good for Gold Box farming. Took one just now in a lazy 6x6 CTF battle. I was the only tank to find the drop point. Wish I'd taken a picture though.

Not many battles have higher than 1k difference between a lose and a win, for one player.

$1 worth of crystals? Very very rare..

 

How bad do they want to win? enough to sacrifice $1? Seems so...

 

If that is possible, I am not surprised from the point you show..

 

 

And anyway, there are always several players who either desperate from golds(like me :D  ) or wants to win( guess like you ) who still fights even on golds..  ^_^ 

So my team is often get advantage from golds.

IMO golds should be purchasable in-game for 1150 crystals (same as repair kit) - tanki still makes a crystal profit of 150 crystals. Or even more, say 1500 crystals.

The user dropping it can decide whether his / her name should appear in the "announcement" or not.

gold box supplys are suppose to be a type of "Premium Content" doing that would basically ruin it

When did they raise the prices for Repair Kits?

I see where you are going with the 1k Crystal difference. But if we are really talking about risk and reward we need to account for your chances of actually catching the gold box. IMO best case your odds are about one in four or 25%. Worst case, there's a dogpile at the drop point and your chances are abysmal, like one in twenty or 5%.

 

Taking this into account, the risk-reward picture drops to between 50 and 250 crystals per attempt. This is well within the difference between winning and losing battle funds, and why I think abandoning your team to chase gold is poor sportsmanship.

 

Have I done it? Sure. Am I proud of it? Nope.

[The-Operator219 1,929]

But... But it's so shiny. :0

I wish you could buy a gold with crystals  :(

I would love to see how it would be priced! 1500 crystals for a 1000 Crystal gold box. Why? You are paying for the privilege, appearance, and power to drop a gold box in battle, which odds are you wont even catch. LOL
