Bigger rewards for completing mission chains this summer!

Better mission chains + new Premium daily bonus = players must log in every day.

 

I'm doing it. These rewards are good while they last. Feels kinda like when Missions were first introduced.

 

Should finance a few MUs for my garage between now and whatever is in store for us on Tanker's day.

 

Thank you Tanki for this.

With only 7456 players online, I would say that Little WIllie has a better grasp of the situation facing TO than Austens attempted pro tanki propaganda.

 

Sorry to bust your bubble Austen but the numbers say that the mission chains aren't better. The fact that the reward has increased does not compensate for the increased drug usage .

 

Little Willie hit the nail on the head when he said that the game has stagnated. Players who previously (stupidly IMHO) invested serious money to buy success are now frantically drugging in battles to protect their investment and to keep pace with the devs money making schemes.

 

When I started I had hoped to have a few different hulls & turrets to be able to play in different battle scenarios. Now I find that as I absolutely refuse to pay even 1 penny to these masters of poor business judgement, I am limited to trying to slowly progress with 1 main hull and turret. This has now limited the battles that I can seriously compete in as has the non pro requirement and the ludicrous rank range impositions.

 

In essence I find myself more and more trawling the servers for a battle that I can join where I am not just target practice for a drug buying fully upgraded & protected player 8-9 ranks higher than me that even with a collected DD I can only scratch their (bought) custom paintwork. I am now getting to the point where I get more enjoyment reading the forum than trying to play.

 

I suspect that I am not the only one and that I will probably leave soon now that the fun and opportunity to get a decent battle has gone.

 

TO management you have got your strategy wrong.

Fewer and fewer Pro_battles in evenings (well, except for EN2 - mostly legends).

 

So play a few normal battles to keep mission chain going and log out.

 

Devs really seem intent on removing Pro-Battles - most of their efforts seem to have gone that direction.

Not worth the 5000 crystals/month currently.

Come on! What time did you log in? 00:32 in the morning UTC!

What did you expect the birds from the north Ocean pacific or vampires playing at night?

Check this:  tankionline.com/graphic.swf

You will see that at 00:32 it is not pic time. You need to move to Europe.

 

Furthermore it's Summer, nobody can resits going outside, plus there is still some people which does have exams and revision. If you got your priorities straight you will not be playing TO but thinking hard about your future in the real life.

Yes, there are reasons, but they're not necessarily the reasons you are quoting. I suggest reading a book called Freakonomics to get a little bit of insight about how correlation isn't necessarily causality.

um... either I do not get your answer, or we have a misunderstanding :)

 

I quoted no reasons; I just pointed out that there are reasons why players like to play pro battles (talking about public ones, not those hidden FireWaspHornet); and that is is sad that Tanki took away the possibility to earn mission income in such public pro battles.

 

By doing this Tanki forces the players to play gamemodes that they do not like, in order to keep up with the rest of the players.

It does not encourage game fun, if it is made feel like work.

I understand that the principle of free2play games is based on "pay for cinvinience" = "pay by time spent"; but IMHO it should not by "pay by grief". It is still a game, and the players come here to have fun. If the grief starts to outweight the fun, they leave.

 

It would be really cool, if public pro battles would allow to complete missions again.. and the missions that can be easily solved there (like beeing first) would be reworked (like into "beeing first + score 200 points in the same battle").

Who pi*** stole the sugar from your corn flakes?

 

You haven't burst any bubble - I'm banking every Crystal Tanki has promised me.

Actually, there's a lot more that you can do in the game. There are the special game modes like XP/BP. There's eSports and clans. There's parkour.

 

Also, once the Matchmaking system is properly in place, and the Clans system is fully implemented, we expect gameplay to become a lot more engaging and interesting. It's gonna take a bit more, but it'll be worth the wait.

what about players who do not care about formated games or don't have time/do not care for ESports?

 

are they here for the reason that buyers have someone to slay again and again?

 

face it..you ruined game..and now,more then ever you loose players,NOT RELATED with summer,bcs this summer isn't only summer in this parody,oops,game history..I know for a fact that leak of players is bigger then ever,no matter how you hipocrits try to mask it

 

F2P but P2W..now more then ever..we'll see for how long..

Austen - cornflakes?????  Full English brekkie if you please....

 

You may very well be banking the crystals but at what cost?

 

My comment was aimed at the situation in general not specifically you.  Many players will now find that the cost to complete missions has risen proportionally higher than before the "updates" which have fuelled massively the drug usage.

 

 

I will let you mull that over while you have your low fat, organic, high fibre muesli with added senior citizen supplements. (Urine is of course optional)  ;)

One week on from receiving the bigger mission chain reward, I'm convinced that there is no benefit to players. Everyone receives the bigger reward, so now everyone is drugging all of the time. The drugging "problem" is now worse than ever.

 

I ran out of supplies today (apart from speed ups and mines) and discovered that it is almost impossible to play... so I switched to playing XP or pro mode... no other choice.

Geez. See how this works? DO YOU NOT SEE HOW THIS WORKS?? No matter what the hell Tanki does to try to help out non-buyers, they still complain. I'm done with this damned forum if I see one more irresponsible, ungrateful, completely ridiculous post.

Conqueror I've found a "ridiculous post" for you

 

"Geez, see how this works? DO YOU NOT SEE HOW THIS WORKS?? No matter what the hell Tanki does to try to help out non-buyers, they still complain. I'm done with this if I see one more irresponsible, ungrateful, completely ridiculous post."

it is not. The main problem lasts,we need supplies for non pro battles. Why just not have some non pro battles without drugs? Only supplies? 

On a side now: Ta-ta

Exactly. You need supplies for non-pro battles, and TO is now giving them to you. Think before you post.

And what happens with players who do not enjoy drugging as if there were no tomorrow?

 

The problem is not that we do not have supplies for non-pro battles. If that were the problem, Tanki would be doing just the right thing. The problem is that we cannot compete it non-pro battles without supplies.

 

Some of us would rather have a game when teamwork, strategy, tactics, and such stuff had a main role in determining the outcome of a battle, rather than the current system in which the outcome of a battle is determined by who drugs the most. As long as battles are decided on supplies, there'll be problems with it.

 

(Also, please, don't get started with the old tale "You've Got Pro-Battles." There are so many varied reasons why people don't play pro-battles, among them, lack of diversity, there aren't that many non-supply battles, we actually like using supplies to a moderate extent, we can't complete missions in pro-battles, we are casual players and therefore a pro-pass is not worth it, and so forth)

Sounds like you're looking for a different game, then. Accept it. Tanki is what it is and you can't change it.

Buyers will get them too, and they will increase their supply usage, and even with the increase, we can't match them.

You will find out how hard people drug when you rank up to Brigadier and beyond.

The thing is, the fact that buyers are getting drugs too doesn't matter if you think about it. They've had humongous amounts of drugs, usually 4000 to 6000, even before this. They already have practically unlimited amounts of drugs, so having any more doesn't matter. And TO is, if you want to think about it this way, also losing money. Buyers don't need to buy drugs anymore for the rest of 2017, since at higher ranks, you can get roughly 300 drugs per week. 

 

And yes, I do have a higher ranked account that I gave up on simply because I wasted crystals at lower ranks and was getting rekt by hard-core druggers. I know how frustrating it is, but all Tanki is trying to do right now is giving non-buyers a chance, in the hopes that you'll give themselves a chance. 

 

Please take this to PM if you want to continue.

 

Edit - split it into two paragraphs to make it easier to read.

And that's why Tanki keeps losing players, because they can't be bothered to make space for casual players, and the system heavily discourages those who like playing with supplies off.

 

Also,before merging the servers, in the EN servers you could play in Warrant Officer ranks without too much hassle.

 

But you are right, I'm already looking for another game to use my time. If you've got any suggestions, I'm open to them.

giving them?..lol

 

amount of supplies "given" by TO is nothing compared to amount needed to have any chances of fightning back to hard core druggers (buyers in most of the case) in 2 or 3 rounds..and I mean NOTHING..

 

they are loosing players big time,and all started after they released most ******ed update in this parody of once good game,update after which missions couldn't be made in PRO battles

 

tick tack,it's only matter of time untill last frustrated free players leaves this parody
