Drones, Batteries and Modules Update

[wolverine848 13,097]

so that means my protections section is already half ready to be legend level :D  (45-45-45-44-44-44-39) still wish i didn't get modules that covered shaft and railgun twice tho, otherwise I'd have 2 more other modules

yes... anyone who bought multiples of a specific module get shafted.

 

Not sure "halfway there" is quite correct.  Yes, you have 7 of the 13 (14) protections between 39% and 45%.

However...

Now protections cost 3x as much, and the MUs for each will cost 3x as much.

Your ability to buy new protections and upgrade them is nerfed.

Before the change you could buy a triple module that might have 3 new protections.  But now it will cost you the same for 1 new one.

Thrown into M3/M4-Battles from the so called 'fair' MMS, I lurked for a Product-Kit to have better chance of survival. I was 6K EP's away of it.

Overnight the planned Product-Kit cost me now the double and till Marshall I am still cannon fodder.

 

Thank You very much for that pretty rip off pricing and showing the respect You pay to the players.

forget that, anyone who got triple/double modules got shafted. they increased the prices of single modules by 5 times!

 

yea maybe not "halfway" but I'm certaintly ahead of my rank

 

cause right now you need to be marshal to get any m3 modules... only those who buy kits can get them at my rank...

 

so in terms of modules I'm on par with someone who has bought 7 m3 kits at my rank

This is the first time in years I am actually thinking about quitting TO for good.

 

Next thing the hulls will be split to the front, back and sides and each will be sold separately and each can be upgraded by itself.

I absolutely like the new module system very much. I works perfectly for Tanki Online because players now have the freedom to choose which protections to add, change of remove, exactly like I suggested in my old modules posts last year. The new modules system has 3 slot protections for 3 turrets to protect from. I think that it would be a better idea to add one more slot to make four slot protections.

 

 

I want players to be able to make their own custom modules by having 4 slot modules. I personally think that having 4 slot protection modules will not disrupt the balance of the game in the new modules system because this modules system is different from the old one. Therefore, nothing will be overpowered if developers make this new modules system into a 4 slot protection module system.

 

Please add one more slot so that players can create their own 4 slow modules. I want to be able to create a module that protects me from 4 turret. The module I want to create is a module that protects me from Ricochet, Hammer, Railgun and Shaft. Four slot modules would be the correct combination because of the quantity of turrets which are currently available in Tanki Online.

 

Please do not merge this topic.

Since the sales have already been announced as 50 percent sales.

 

I mean meh, maybe if they gave us 80 percent sales on micro upgrades.

 

Tanki has been losing traction with me for some time. This only makes my decision to be here less easier.

 

So a bad... and a good. I suppose. I'll visit more in a few months, see if they fixed.

 

I mean to be fair, I still have problems with my vulcan overheating. they'd better get on a whole  bunch of stuff. 

 

Poor tank devs are maybe getting poorer in poorer in real life. But that's just getting what they are reaping to the players i guess.

Im not lucky at all, I spent over €3000 just on my protections, All i got in return is some cheap chinese batteries that only last a minute. Didnt even get duracells!

well the copper prices are through the roof at the moment...  xD

Oh you're doing fine.  Just tempering your "buying" expectations... ;)

[RIDDLER_8 5,552]

Yes, you can micro upgrade your protection modules to 50%. For that, you must buy M3 if your current protection levels for each individual module is below M3 modification.

Happy 9th birthday Tanki Online. With these changes you will not get to celebrate your 10th birthday.

[BlackWasp777 4,498]

but you forget, tanki supplied these batteries so probably no copper in them only coal!  :lol:

as it is a Russian game they are maybe filled with natural gas - that must be the reason why they drain so fast :p

(ok, enough off topic for today ;))

[RIDDLER_8 5,552]

I am using the lead paint.

[Jeges-Masina 41]

Finally! But the TO birthday discounts will affect the prices of the batteries?

Can we have in a future update this: i have isida M0, but i can ONLY buy isida M2, but i want to buy M1 version. Same with modules. Can we have more selections, please?

How often will new drones added?

When will we get the NEW overdrives? ( I thought project ,,Energizer,, received this name, because you will release the new overdrives, which would make sense. I was surprised, and i t became suspicious for me. > You planned AND discussed overdrives for a long time, and you suddenly change to a ,,surprise update,, .  Pretty weird for me.   :unsure: )

Thanks for releasing the updates!

So waiting for the MU sale was a waste of time and crystals.

Will cost me more now than it would have two days ago - especially if I MU-ed the triples with no overlap...

 

No wonder they did not give us details on the "conversion" plan.  We'd have spent our crystals already...

[r_Issimo2 1,495]

@ Tanki

 

How about 75% discount on the modules we don't own, so we can start the process a little faster? And as compensation to those that only had many protections against the same turrets and didn't purchased single modules before the change.

 

Or how about removing paints from kits, so we can buy kits a little cheaper so we can get modules that why?

 

And please remove Drones, it's going to ruin battles and complicate the game. If Drones stay I'll not be playing Matchmaking for long.

Even the "Dream Tank" is not so dreamy with only one module fully upgraded

[Ishrak 932]

I have only one question: Is it even worth it? 

Like common, 8th upgrade on m2 rico protection is just around the same as last upgrade on an m3 hull. Were protections always this expensive? (I never bothered with modules much up until now, I just wanted to get m4 rico-viking asap, 32% rico protection is from LGC dragon). 

 

Should I bother MU-ing it to m3 or just buying it at half price? Or neither?  :lol:  :lol:  :angry:

 

 

 

 

 

 

Negatives aside, I really like the one biggest positive side of this update. I can use this 32% rico module from LGC alongside thunder 36% and twins 36% that I have from Medic Kit.  ^_^

but you get a fully MUed drone... a drone costs 1 million crystals to MU without speed ups

but no batteries

[GuidoFawkes 2,361]

if you win a dream tank then i'm sure they'll give you batteries too

 

usually when you get dream tank it comes with gold boxes, containers, crystals, drugs etc... so i suppose they'll add batteries too

[snipe3000 678]

I mean to be fair, I still have problems with my vulcan overheating. they'd better get on a whole  bunch of stuff. 

 

Um... vulcan is supposed to overheat... it prevents players from just holding space down.

Yes, empty batteries (sarcasm).

 

[r_Issimo2 1,495]

Kits could come with a 50% discount card on paints instead of coming with paints. Then I could buy a kit to have a module, that because i don't like having too many paints.

[Winters 214]

Why do the upgrades on the new modules cost so much? Before, I had a double module with rail and smoky upgraded all the way to 9/10. The last upgrade costed around 30k. Now, the new module upgrades cost over 40k as an individual. Why is this?
