Drones, Batteries and Modules Update

[BlackWasp777 4,498]

Does that mean,will it be a good idea to buy all the single modules which i dont have protection against in the upcoming discount ?

never mind ,they already see though me and i just noticed the update is tomorrow before i can purchase all the protection i dont have.

Also they will increase the price of single modules for sure.

idk.

When this update was announced the first time in a vLog, I invested my crystals in a single hammer module.

But I have no clue if this was a good deal or not.

I personally expectED (past!) that the overall costs for the protection system would stay rather constant.. and that therefore the costs of single protections after the upgrade would need to increase. But this was just an assumption (Tanki keeps it helpers die clueless as well...)

As they now announced the prices of batteries, I think that this offers the chance to lower the overall protection costs, in order to have some credits left for batteries.

 

But idk.

 

Still a reduction of the overall protection system costs could still lead to higher prices for indiv. modules.

 

The only positive thing I see here, is that they do not let us walk through the sales blindshaded, while introducing the update afterwards.

 I don't care so much ,I already said make a drone that appears when a Gold box drops and can be used for reporting hackers.

> what does "remove module" mean?

Each module (legacy, current ones, ..) is today one piece of equipment that protects vs. one or multiple weapons and mines.

Image that each module that you own will be split up into single modules -> so a [Thunder+Rail+Smoky] module will be split up into three single modules: one for [thunder], one for [rail] and one for [smoky].

 

This happens to all your modules/protections.

After the update you can equip up to three of your new converted single modules; while you may mix them as you please.

 

 

> multiple protections of the same turret

Of course today you have > e.g. > rail-protection in a couple of your modules.. so you would end up with a lot of single modules that protect vs. rail. Those will get converted into a single Rail protection module. The more you have and the stronger they protect, the stronger will your final rail module be.

We do not know that forumla for the conversion yet, but there will be a video explaining that. I expect that video online within the next 48 h.

If all your rail protection from today, accumulated, do not fit into the new system (because you have to much of them), then the part that does not fit into the new system will be converted into batteries for drones (again, wait for the video explanation).

 

 

That's all we know at the moment.

Thanks for helping explain this...with 20+ modules I felt like I was getting robbed by this update. If it goes down like you explain, then I will be 50% across the board. That would be a loss of overall crystals spent, but a more flexible protection opportunity to help be more adaptive in the new matchmaking scenario.

nMMmmMmm......no pickpocket drone??,....crystals needed..... :ph34r:

How about our old modules, we spend lots of crystals on them. Are we going to get any refund for that? For example if you have 1 protection from twins on 50% and 1 protection on 44, will you get 50% after the update and a refund for the one you have on 44%? Or how will this work

Any 'left over' protection you might have after your modules are converted into the new ones will be refunded to you in the form of batteries.

 

I have so many protections M4 what will happen to them? , Do I need to upgrade again single protections to mix it with other?

Your current modules will be converted, what's left over will be given to you as batteries.

 

So after tomorrow will the full Energizer project be released or will there be more aspects leftover?

No, there's one more part of Project Engergizer, namely XT skins, that will be released at a later date.

 

When will Juggernaut mode be released??

According to what was said in the latest V-LOG, in the following week or two.

 

What will happen to those modules that are currently being upgraded?

That's a good question, I expect it to be explained in detail in the video of Semyon Strizhak that was promised to us in the last V-LOG.

 

Hello, what will happen with the modules we have there? I don't remember, is gonna be exchanged as batteries?

The modules you already have will be converted to the new modules, if there's any left over value, it will be given to you as batteries.

 

i got protection full micro so it saying rip my protection and my crystals?

No, your current modules will be converted to the new modules, so you won't lose your protections.

 

What happens to my modules- I have every turret covered with 50% protection.. Do I still have that ?

Your current modules will be converted to the new modules.

 

What if i have 3 modules with 50% protection from Railgun ?

I will get batteries for the other 2 modules ?

Yes.

 

Can we turn off drones in Pro battles ?

We'll find out tomorrow.

 

 

Can I kill enemy drones with my railgun or other weapon? No? Than it is just MORE fun for drugger noobs, further ruining the game. Thank you.

To be honest, I doubt it, otherwise no one would want to disable seeing the drones, but I don't know for sure, we'll have to see tomorrow.

 

Other question: what will tanki do with old modules adding up in the following case:

 

(1) prodigi  50% against railgun

(2) picasso 27% against railgun

(3) clay up  47% against railgun

total: 124% against railgun? LOL

Players have invested in these modules....

 

(1) Africa   24% against hammer

The new minimum is 35% against hammer

Will I loose that after your re-balance?

Players have invested in these modules...

 

Thank you for your kind answer.

In the railgun example, any 'excess' protection will be exchanged for batteries. In the Africa example, your hammer protection will be split up into a single module, same goes for all other turrets you have protection against. The minimum protection in modules isn't 35%.

 

Will the prices of the modules remain the same?

No information about this has been published, we'll know after the update is released.

 

Remove all old protections Without compensation? We paid in this protections! are you crazy?

Every update is worse than the update it was before, Really bad management.

Your current modules will be converted into the new modules, so you won't lose them.

 

 

I hope i get refunded for my current modules in either drone batteries or crystals :huh:

Your current modules will be converted into the new modules.

 

what about kits, will their prices be decreased cuz of modules??

No information has been given about this yet, we'll have to see after the update rolls out.

 

What happens if we have m4 protection modules? and Legacy m4 protection modules what will happen to them? Will we still have the m4 protection?

They will be split up into single modules that you then can combine into any combination of three protections.

I'll buy and upgrade the new modules during discounts, not today.

[kheddar 21]

What is next update: PAY to PLAY ? <_<

[II.Dead.Shot.II 3]

XT skins...?  -_-

[Hancho 3,902]

XT skins should come soon. 

[Tabish 100]

There is gonna be big kill streaks for buyers :( after using all drugs use drones wow not gud and I am sure till that time overdrive will be ready

[ales827_GT 0]

Nice, at least some good update :D, how much will it cost a dron? (crystals)

[tiger438 40]

Good update overall :-)  , although the time of battery shall be increased from 1 min to about 3 or 4 minute otherwise it would be too costly 

[Bydo 20,121]

this is when it was released or near about to this date..http://en.tankiforum.com/index.php?showtopic=331453

nice this is gonna be AWESOME!!!!!!!!!!!!

Before update 2Ok Players, After Update 1Ok Players.

[N3tralRE 282]

 I don't care so much ,I already said make a drone that appears when a Gold box drops and can be used for reporting hackers.

Hooray!  You get to catch that one Gold Box hacker doing nothing useful in battle with that potential hacker-spying drone that Tanki may or may not even implement! 

 

Enjoy the moment for what it's worth, because you got to prepare for many more painful beatings from those tankers with Supplies AND Drones wrecking the battlefield.

Like the idea, but why do the batteries cost 300 cry?? Come on, they will be like garage drugs - nobody buys them, they could not be available at all for crystals if that's the price. I'd say if they cost about 10 - 30 crystals they will be kinda worth it. 300 cry is an absurd amount for 1 minute of drone functioning - even buying drugs via garage is better value!

[RIDDLER_8 5,552]

I really disagree on the drones update because players can use the regular overdrives like they usually do and they don't cost anything. The developers promised us with seven overdrives, one for each individual hull, but they never came to Tanki Online. The new overdrives for all the hulls is what players want to have, not drones. Drones are just a repeated clone of overdrives which is unnecessary.

[r_Issimo2 1,495]

I've just bought 14 single modules on my small account that didn't have any modules.

 

If the conversion doesn't convert these single modules into new single modules with the same protection level, like Nives and the mods have said, i want them to drop me some Golds. But I can accept Promo Codes too, I'm understanding. ;)

I've also saved screen shoots of my account, 2 dozen screen shoots, to remember the Old Tanki. <3 <3 <3

 

Remember this is just a game. Say 'hi' and 'gg' in battles.

I like it, and the batteries are cheap, I like that to. but how much do the drones cost and what's so special about the modules?

[Nine 693]

This is going to ruin the game

When you re-start tomorrow morning, YOU WILL ALL BE ROBBED OF YOUR PROTECTION MODULES.

 

MAKE NO MISTAKE, THIS IS A RE-BALANCE, but in a different form.

 

Enjoy Tanki play while you can, these last few hours.

 

After server-restart, Tanki will never be the same.

This is going to ruin the game

Unlikely, 2k players have been toying with it on the test servers the last 48 hours and it was business as usual. They work like alterations but applied to supplies.

Crystals that would have been spent on redundant protection modules and XT equipment (+MU) can now be used for other purpose such as drones. Also more crystals per battle provides more opportunities to buy equipment.

All your modules will be split so you can re-jiggle at will in the flexible triple module. You can rebuild your preferred modules, create new one and even mix the Mine protection module.

 

[Hot_Sauce 5]

So Yeah, I hope that Drones can be excluded in battles (i.e. pro battles), as they seem like a way to drug efficiently.

 

I have supplies, and I can and will drug in battles where there are others of higher rank w/ better equipment drugging to improve their score (I still pwn them).

 

But I really appreciate those heads up battles where skill overcomes everything else. I hope we can at maintain those "Integrity" Battles.
