December 28th Update: Assault Mode, Containers

[Apex_Predator 537]

 

OK, now I'm supposed to say 'Hmm, that's interesting'

 

But... you already know what I'm going to say.

 

That the selling of containers is scratch-lottery-type gambling.

 

That we don't even know the algorithm of giving containers nor the reward chances,

 

That the 3x rewards is unfair for casual players and buyers, unless you're a buyer that also do mission chains....

 

Tanki is officially with the dark side. I know I have choices.

 

That's what i have been saying, the containers are type of gambling, and the level of drugging has doubled since last year, i know tanki want people to drug non stop (more sales), but i hate to drug, and i hate non pro, now Tanki make me drug to get rare containers.  :(

NICE

When the announcement said that "containers will be in the game to stay", does this mean that there will always be a chance of them dropping from the sky, or they will always be available for purchase in the shop?

 

Secondly, does anyone know if tanki plans on added weekly or monthly missions into the game?

1: Nives mean available in the game for purchase in the Shop forever, not from Gold Boxes. Black Boxes are only a holiday thing.

2: Don't think so.

I like the new color effects when opening containers and the reworked Assault Mode on the blue team.

[Prodigi 595]

Yo, the exact same colors to denote the item classes as of Overwatch and Fortnite...

 

Atleast make it more different than other games, or just keep it the way it currently is as it is suspenseful is you're going to get something good; something bad.

Games tend to copy each other with cosmetic effects, like Call of Duty did with Battlefield.

[r_Nives5 15,148]

So nive even on Jan 8 the mission chain would be x3?

 

Yes, if on January 7th you complete a mission, get 6/7 and on January 8th finish the chain, your rewards will be X3.

Most MMO games have containers, crates, etc.. and they are all obtainable without paying real money. My idea is that slightly different versions of the current container (such as ones that do not give animated/removed paints) should be obtainable through daily missions, gold boxes or just plain chance.

Can you list the 'very rare paints' 

Like Red Suit, Eternity, etc.

[Stratosphere 2,234]

well they are not very rare 

They are rare now, because they can't be purchased from anywhere else anymore.

[LittleWillie 3,199]

That the 3x missions remain is almost a certainty. Removing them would be hard to do after over 6 months.  The extra income really does help with the broken economic system and to make non-buyers an even match with buyers.

 

As for the scoring chance to ASL, I applaud TO for seeing a problem and trying a fix. Dunno if it will work. But clearly the current syytem is not working. Look how few games are played now. I will give it a chance.

If you think it is gambling you are entitled to your opinion. Since there is no monetary reward to me it is just a randomized sub-section of a game.

 

We know enough about the algorithm. There's a forum post done on a survey of some 500-some openings.  Low rewards account for about half.  But the least valuable reward is worth at least 3x the GB value of 1,000 Cry. So no Container is "bad".

 

Casual players that do not do missions should have fewer resources than casual players who do do missions.  I know from personal experience that if you do 1+ missions / day you will be able to afford the best possible gear for your rank. You just have to focus on one hull, turret, and module

Drugging cancels itself out except for the speed-ups. Yeah that's not a real interesting system but it is part of the game/  If you do missions you will have all the drugs you need. LW account is closing in on 2.500 RKs and nearing 7k now of the others.

 

It is part of the game. When you play chess, you you refuse to move your queen? If so, why?

Per my reading, All unopened containers look the same. When you open them, you see colors.

[N221 597]

If only there were missions for containers, maybe a hard mission for 1 container?

Wow looks nicee!

[DunGoofed 1]

- New way for Blue Team to score in Assault mode;

- New effects and rarity colors when opening containers;

- X3 rewards for mission chains stay till more news in January.

 

interesting on assault mode , hope this improves the game and makes it more fair . ( still refuse to battle on it due to past fails )

 

would like to know if this changes the paints we just got from containers or what would happen to them , would the old  special shop paints ( flow and others )  stay the same or what ?

 

3X times missions , nice ...

 

New effects when opening containers

 

here we go changing containers soon you will only be able to buy with $$ on selected ones and then the lower ones will be the ones with drugs only and be able to buy with crystals or $$ . coming soon to tanki , seeing this is all ready being done in TankiX..

 

will the cost of containers go up in price ???

Why is the last point so true :P

So, rare paints... could this be the Synesthesia paint? Does anybody know the code? I really need to know so I can look cooler than my bros.

[LadyMagnum 73]

Thanks for making it so no longer is a strong blue team condemned to spend 15 minutes defending, and also now red can't win by scoring 91-99 and then running down the clock. That was flipping ridiculous.

Everything to do with Synesthesia can now be found in this topic.  :D

Code probably doesn't give the paint mate, think about it, you get paint from containers.... Look at the description and find hidden link... click there and it brings u to that page. So IF you can ONLY get it that way, then why would it give u the paint again. Im guessing its not part of the game, but another thing for buyers as it is available from containers. If I was you wait for an official announcement. 

(For all who read this, What I have written may not be 100% true but just see my logic. Its based off my theories)

[MachineoWar 16]

So what does the code do? Give you a super secret paint? I would take that too.

I wish that the "new maps" that ASL was allowed on included CANYON and DECK 9. 

BTW the reason I am Major Gen now is that 3 day premium pass allowed me to grind 20k exp.

 

PS. When will the stats for ASL be added in ratings.tankionline?

I know it. :ph34r:

I went premium a month ago, and under 15 euros I'm sorted till March.

17.5K a week in crystals, double cry and 1.5 EXP.  Wish I'd gone premium yonks ago...
