I am disgusted with the proposed "balance" update. I spent 6 months playing and saving and finally achieved viking m3 and smoky m3 (both with significant micro upgrades) and now you are changing the characteristics? I have wasted my time as I will no longer have the same tank. I must have saved 400,000 crystals to do that and now it is all taken away. Well, goodbye tanki. This is why the game is dying. Thankfully I never spend a penny on this game but I did waste my time. I am disgusted. I can't imagine if I had spent real money and then I no longer have what I paid for... that is fraud and deception.

:C NOOOOOOO all the op weapons like rico, fire, twins are gonna be cheaper......... THEN IT WAS A WASTE THAT I SPENT CRYSTALS ON THEM :C

wait... it doesn't make sense. Kasim said in the vlog that players could have the advantage to purchase items that are gonna be expensive before the update. If we don't have sales to purchase it before the update, what's the point of the advantage???

[Bydo 20,151]

ok for the ones who asked me or has said tanki is looking more like tankiX  .. it seems that way .. maybe its cause the dev's also created both games .. think about it .. some items or idea's will be similar and in time they have said if the interest in tanki dies out then yes in the far future this game will be closed ..

 

for now we all enjoy this game and don't want it to closed...

 

now to clear another misconception ( mods feel free to correct me please )

 

crystals are earned in game play and have no value .. unless you pay with real cash dollar's then this is .. a yes from me

 

this company only runs on our real money invested into this game and word of mouth on advertising the game to bring in more players to spend real money... for this company closing ..that will not be happening due to this company if you go on there main web page you can see they have other subsidiary's  / other company's / ideas with in this main company ... tanki has been making money for some time now ( only going on past experiences of years playing this game and knowing how much I have put into this game a long with others who pay for crystal's in the past..)

down the road maybe they will stop putting money into a company that can't bring in money .. but for now .. tanki will be here for ..who knows for how long only the head management would know ..

[M-axis 589]

So why not just raise the price of the big supply kits instead of putting it in the shop.

Yeah, I was wondering about that too.

 

Sorry I'm not quite following your line of thought. Are you actually complaining that we're having a 50% discount? Should I ask our marketing team to cancel it?

 

Also, did you listen to the V-LOG properly? The cooldowns between supplies has been reduced, so there's a better chance of using them together. Of course we had to counter-balance something like that. Please take the time to understand things properly before commenting.

Whoa, are you we actually having 50 sales??

 

For M3 minimum damage was increased but max was decreased. The reload time was decreased significantly. Overall, I think thunder will perform better... I'm looking forward to it. :D

 

Edit: Is it just me or did anyone else notice how this balance will make TO exactly like TX? :huh:

 

Ikr...its like exactely the same as TX..

is there a certain date in Oct or you can't say

 

 

also found the code

Spill it ;)

 

No fixed date unfortunately. Programming code is a very delicate thing. One mishap might throw your ETA out the window.

Take as long as you want bro...I'mma start saving for M2 rail..

 

I found the code. :) Great V-LOG once again. I only have one remark about the changes to the game's balance and the explanation. It's a problem for developers that Isida m3 is available at Brigadier so that it'd be too powerful since other players would still be playing with m2. Where was this logic when you introduced product kits and all players complained about buyers being too OP because they could play with m3s non-buyers couldn't have yet? 

Spill the code...xD

 

well if you look at there past upgrades .. there doing something so don't give up on Insida's yet .. keep watching the Alterations updates .. i think there going to be something that will give you back stuff you lost .. in other words we will now have to buy separate units to improve our turrets ..any mod who knows more on this please correct me if i'm thinking wrong on it.. thanks

Alterations are just WAY too expensive. We allready having protections to buy now :P

this i fully agree why pay for something since we did have it in the start .. then they took it away.. now we have to pay again .. I fully disagree to it..

All I've seen in this thread is people whining about the end of Tanki without actually realizing what's going on :lol:

 

To all those who fear the apocalypse, let me tell you this was the same reaction as during the first rebalance :ph34r:

[Phoenix.Rising 2,519]

Is there a way to change my answer in the Survey?

 

After reading the Wiki Article I want to change my answer from: They will make the game worse

to: They will make the game a lot worse

What a coincidence, I voted "alot worse" . I doubt a few negative people will change their minds anyway.

[xXx.RazoR.xXx 543]

About discounts — right now we're in a position to offer 50% discounts. Back then, we were coming from a lengthy period of constant series of discounts of 50% and over. That is what damaged the economy, because it skewed players' perception of what actual equipment prices were.

 

As for supplies and cooldowns, nobody forces you to use them. What we're doing is moving towards a more dynamic gameplay.

well,at least you repplied,for what I'm thankfull

 

about your second responce,please,can you tell it out loud and beleive that?

 

really,I agree,no one forces me to use them,but hey,let's get few things settled now

 

1st,I can buy full m4 garage in a moment,on few of my accounts close to gismo rank,,and you can check that I (as mentioned few times earlier "donated" :D :D :D (epic word) to the game (AP)) bought in this game,so,I expirienced both sides of this parody,free player,and "buyer"

 

2nd I really think that my expirience of both types of MMO players gives me some right to speak to all of you from devs deparment,because I talk from EXPIRIENCE

 

3rd all supplies kits > 100 you stealed from garage will make all,or at least big majority of free players a) leave game b ) to become mults c) skilles players who will only know to play wasp/fire,since it will be only possible source of income d) became underdogs at later ranks with,for example m2 on commander rank

 

every other BS you try to sell to few of us is hipocrisy and big fat lie,because (in your case everything is possible,you assured us last few months) I refuse to beleive that you all are too blind not to see what will cause this "update"

 

buyers gonna dominate everything..they will let freebies raise fund and break them in second once they decide that game is over..seen that too many times..with druggs as they are now,not buffed as you will make them in near future

 

if u still intend to blabla about game statistics..let me give you a hint about statistics my math teacher gave me years a go..

 

STATICSTICS IS LIKE BIKINI,IT SHOWS MUCH,BUT IT HIDES WHAT MATTERS MOST :)

 

SO..please,don't make fools of us..there are people here with IQ > room temperature in Siberia in mid December

If you buy something that is 100 000 crystals now, and after the update it will be 150 000 crystals, it is an advantage to buy it now so you can get it cheaper.

 

Or if something is 200 000 now, and after the update it will be 150 000 crystals, it is an advantage to wait until after the update so you won't spend as much crystals.

 

Kasim said this and he meant what I explained.

[thanki_tanki 13]

On the topic of Isida.

 

As a weapon type it can be compared to freeze and fire: It is a short range, no impact weapon and it delivers a burst of damage instead of a shot(s).

 

HOWEVER, with freeze and fire it delivers the damage to everyone in its range and the effect last even after the burst has been applied. With Isida you can only target one opponent at the time and the effect stops as soon as you stop "firing". The one thing that Isida had going for it was the self healing.

 

Now that self healing is practically gone (from 50% to 10% for M3+), Isida will start disappearing once players realize they have been shafted (no pun intended).

Changing all hulls to be the same health is not dynamic. <_<

 

It also basically takes this discussion out of the game:

http://en.tankiwiki.com/Light_Tanks_-_How_to_Choose,_How_to_Use

because hornet will be the same health, you can dodge with wasp and even if you take damage, it will not kill you fully.

 

This will also affect XP/BP, because I don't think anyone will use hornet because there in no really big advantage.

Ohh, and did I mention that the damage power of fire and freeze by far exceeds the damage power of isida.

M3 equipment at that rank? You must be good!

I think the updates are great! well only lower rank tankers like me because of power ups. it will definitely effect game play for higher ranks. A LOT.

If you didn't know, you answer it on the google form page, which you can find on this topic, page one, underneath the Vlog.

[CooperO 7,956]

The rank that was chosen was because it was in the middle. But so was General. And if we don't count gissmo rank, general is exactly in the middle. So why was General not chosen?

Brigadier = 606 000 exp

Generalissimo = 1 400 000 exp

Difference is approximately 800 000. Divide that difference by 2 and you get 400 000. Add up to the amount of exp a Brigadier has, or reduce it from the amount of exp a Generalissimo has and you end up exactly at 1 000 000 exp, which is the rank of Marshal.

When it comes to the number of ranks, or the amount of m3 equipment available at each rank, indeed, both General and Marshal are right in the middle. However, using experience points to find the middle sounds like the most logical choice.

I think it should rebalance like 2013 .Because many other player bought m3 weapon or kits in your level.It will give them more advantage because they have better weapon. I think balance hulls as this will have a big problem.As you can see in tankix .Some hulls are useless because the hp is important because normal player is hard to feel the small difference between the small change in speed or weight.
