Massive experience gap between M2 and M3

[deadmike 0]

Not sure if this question has been discussed before but all M2 equipment is available through product kits at 192000 experience whereas M3 kit does not being available until 787000 experience. I understand that each experience required to progress across tier  should progressively increase but it seems a bit extreme to jump two tiers in 192000 and than wait almost 600000 for the next. I been playing Tanki for 11 months and have ffectively been using the same level of equipment for about 9 of these-  and its likely to another 3 until I get M3 - got crystals but not the rank. Its feels a bit stale. Surely there should be rebalancing so M2 is not available later or M3 is available earlier? Just a thought

It's an extremely stupid update that happened in October 2016, as part of a major re-balance. Prior to that, you could buy M3s starting at Brigadier (starting with Thunder and Isida) until Commander (ending with I think Ricochet and Firebird), just like M1 and M2. Now, everything just unlocks at Marshal.

 

Do note that micro-upgrading your equipment without speed-ups costs the same as simply buying that equipment, so in your position I think it would be a good idea to choose a combo and start micro-upgrading it to M3. Take advantage of micro-upgrade sales.

As you're a member since Jan 2017, I guess you haven't played before this update..? Before that, there used to be much more diversity, as for each turret/hull the rank at which a certain m level would unlock was different.

 

See graph below for when turrets would become available. There was always some nice new equipment to look forward to when reaching a higher rank.

 

This was another ill-conceived update that made the game more monotonous and less fun..
