Wasted Crystals


Recommended Posts

I have a good suggestion and idea that will greatly solve the problem of wasted crystals that players spend uselessly. My suggestion on this topic is extremely important because it will eliminate the problem of wasted crystals.

 

Pro Pass

 

In V-Log 140, the developers have announced that the Pro Pass will be permanently removed when the matchmaking system is incorporated in Tanki Online. There are two problems with the Pro Pass. The Pro Pass only lasts temporarily, that is 30 - 31 days. Because of this limitation of time, every time players spend crystals on a Pro Pass, they waste 5000 crystals. That is a huge waste for only 30 - 31 days. With 5000 crystals, players can buy any M0 turret or hull, a low modification micro upgrade and possibly a single protection module, and of course, a cheap paint. Just think about it.

 

Gifts

 

I do know and understand that we all have friends and family that we all want to send gifts to honor them with a personal touch of love and kindness. In Tanki Online gifts were introduced to send a kindly gift to our beloved friendly tankers. The only problem with gifts is that they cost crystals, lots of crystals. Some of them are cheap, like the badge, but most of them cost ridiculous amounts of crystals, like the Blue Sphere. My suggestion is to have gifts, either replaced with permanent features that our friendly tankers can choose to keep forever, or remove gifts because they simply cost too many crystals. Gifts are another thing that is wasting players lots of crystals.

 

Speed Ups

 

When players micro upgrade their turrets, hulls or modules, they spend a considerable amount of crystals for only 1 single micro upgrade step. That is normal because micro upgrade are worth crystals. The only thing that comes after this is the speed up button, which players mostly use to speed up the process on micro upgrading the current step. Speed ups are a problem because players waste crystals on only the speed up, instead of using the same amount of crystals on 1 more micro upgrade. I never buy speed ups, even on 50% sale, to micro upgrade my turrets, hulls or modules. I do not see the potential on wasting so many hard earned crystals for only speed ups. Instead, I wait for the number of days to count down and expire until the next micro upgrade is available. Speed ups on micro upgrades must be removed because they waste such a huge amount of crystals for players. Even buyers, would waste both real money and crystals on useless speed ups. My suggestion would be to have only micro upgrade steps that players can purchase for crystals, as usual, 1 by 1, and when the number of days count down to expiration, then players can buy the next micro upgrade step without wasting crystals on useless speed ups in between micro upgrade steps.

 

A final note:

 

I hope that you all carefully read and understand my suggestion here. My given suggestion on this post is only written so that developers can decide to remove the wastage of crystals that players waste all the time when buying speed ups, gifts and pro passes.

 

Thank you for reading, and I hope that my idea shall be planned after the matchmaking system and HTML5 is finished and released in Tanki Online. Players crystals spending and the balancing system of the economy of Tanki Online must be improved in a much more convenient way so that players do not waste both real money and crystals to buy or upgrade equipment.

Declined

 

Pro Pass

You're not suggesting anything here. You're just stating a fact. Either way, you said in that paragraph that the Pro pass will soon be removed. So if you know that, then why suggest something for it when it's obvious that the problem will be soon solved anyway?

 

Gifts
No one forces you to buy them. If you have crystals that you can throw away - you can buy more expensive gifts for your friends. But if you don't have much to spare - a badge with a meaningful message will be more than enough. 

 

Micro-Upgrades

The high price of speed-ups is intentional and won't be reduced or removed. It's the reality of free-to-play games and many aspects in real life as well: if you want something done quickly - you pay more; if you don't want to spend much - you wait.

tanki is not meant to be a trading center so |economy| DOESNT EXIST in tanki and it never will. prices are totally ok now for everything. gifts are for people that want to waste crystals.

Its a great shame that Maf has declined my idea.

 

Crystals are hard to earn in battles, so I suggest that players don't waste them. The developers should think on replacing gifts and speed ups with more suitable items that lasts permanently when purchased. For example, when buying a new turret, hull or module, players keep it in their garage permanently and cannot re-sell it.

Pro passes, as well as other types of passes must be removed because they waste crystals. For players, like me, who shall soon want to take part and participate in eSports or other mini events, there should be a free-to-play event battles, so that players don't waste crystals and finish the event empty handed. When playing every battle, whether players win or lose, they always expect to earn a sum of crystals, just like in real life when you earn money for the work you have produced.

So your suggestion is for players and not for the devs?

 

I think this section is for ideas and suggestions to the devs.

 

Be thankful with Maf, he/she always responds to your ideas with explanations. Imagine the job he/she has here, he or she has to read all the ideas good or bad, give responses, take notes of them to give it to the higher ups, police the topics, and so on... I imagine it is not fun to do all that.

I don't think Maf will be pleased that you called him a she. :ph34r:

Is it him? are you sure? I am not sure, that's why.

 

No offense intended. Sorry for my ignorance.

No one can sell anything on Tanki. Its a great shame you cannot get your facts straight.

I told you Fresh that I am not spamming on purpose. I always try to avoid spamming. I am not trying to get my posts up for my benefit. My posts are ideas and suggestions that can help developers get ideas on how to add new features to Tanki Online. When someone on my posts gives me questions, I try to answer them.
