Drones, Batteries and Modules Update

[r_Issimo2 1,495]

That means one day you get a salary rise when you go to a restaurant they charge you double or even more because you get a rise you will think ok. right?

That's how the Tanki economy works, if you're a non-player you're supposed to struggle economically, if you don't want that you pay some money and get some advantages in return, and that's how the game sustains itself economically.

 

It's all related: the tripled chain rewards, then the chain rewards with 4 containers, the bigger rewards in battles, the slower rank up, the new module system, the Drones and the Batteries. I haven't done any math but I think they calculated all of that.

 

One thing they may not have calculated is that many non-buyers need at least a second turret to be effective in MM battles.

 

My suggestion if ever possible would be to remove Drones and adjust battle rewards to compensate, meaning a little less rewards in exchange of removing Drones.

9 -1-1, what is your emergency?

 

Yes! Tanki Police! I have been robbed of several modules and somehow infested with flying bugs that suck all my crystals!

 

No sir, that is just the game improvements you didn't ask for and you had too much stuff your garage anyway. We did you a favor! Now please just head on over to our new matchmaking interface and guess which map you'll end up in! See isn't this fun? No extra charge!!! Thanks again for investing in Tanki ! Have a nice day!

iy just gets wors and worse...what garbage

NIVES , NEW GLITCH IN CP MODE

 

If the battle is completed by scoring 50 points ,  battle would never end. The crystals would be awarded but the battle won't finish and the final score table never comes up.

 

You can just roam in the map and do nothing else but still it is hard to find the crystals which we have received at the end . Please fix this ASAP

Changing the shape of the drones as they look really bad or alternatively using only batteries to enable the effects. This is not what a drone does in real life so there is a mismatch there as well.

Change the shape!!

Does anyone know what the mu cost is for the new protection scheme?

[The_Pakistani 16,768]

On brigadier rank week#10 will give

On brigadier rank week#10 will give

It will give half the number of repairs you get

[Guest]

Drones = p2w

[enri_chill 265]

And that is where the scam lies: If TO had been honest with their players they'd have told them the new costs before the update.

 

Instead, the dishonesty is compunded bu the fact they rushed up to get the update live a few days before the TO's birthday (and price reductions) in hope it would smooth things over.

 

Blatant cash grab as I ever seen.

My 4.5 million crystal garage has become a 3 million crystal garage...my protections didn't go up at all:( It seems all they did was take the highest protection we had on a given turret (regardless of how many crystals spent/it was worth) and kept that amount and threw the rest away. Can someone help me understand the math? I am also assuming there was no credit given for the legacy modules we had acquired previously and mu'd.

They will only be 300 for a short tie so tanki can use the high price to screw us over with the 'compensation' they promised

Ah, that's nice... I mean, not nice...

Might be a new bug :p

300/150=2

[The_Pakistani 16,768]

300/150=2

44/2 = 22

[jaydevjaydev 343]

Might be a new bug :P

Supplies,Repairs and batteries are distributed in ratios of their cost

 

btw did you experience any bugs like I experienced in my above post?

Batteries cost twice as much as repair kits, so you only get half as much in the chain. You get 6100 crystals and 6100 worth of every supply at brig.

Notice 1 thing: the new modules give you many customization options, but ONLY if you have a lot of them! Now people who pay a lot of money will get another advantage over non-buyers!

Now the only disadvantage for buyers is they will have to pay even more.

Why would you make the game more pay to win? Even from a business point of view?

[Smoky_Donkey 29]

Now disadvantages of the new module system:

the answer is the famous: There are NONE...

[metrix1 22]

I didnt get fully microupgraded modules and i had Shark T-B on m4 and  what did i get 49 % protection. + i had tiger 18/20 > 50% against hammer and i got only 48% protection. I had lot of good modules well upgraded around 10 and i got no battery on top of that. I should get at least 8000 batteries due to my calculations. My friend had even more modeles than i and did 19 820 bateries. I think that this is just not fair. What should I do. Lot of peeople didnt get a single battery, so it is not only my case. I think TO should fix this as fast as they can.

By the way, I'm a buyer myself and I am not one of these always dissapointed beggars. I just think the game is too pay2win to make it more unbalanced!

Hehe this was right after the server restart :P But with these kind of updates the rate's gonna be like this soon lol

[LUCIFER1_the_dark 1,230]

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 who knew Russian batteries would be more crappier than chinese.

Atleast chinese batteries last for 14400 minutes. :ph34r:

Yeah, I even like this game, sad but true. They used to have like 100k peak, a year ago 30-40k and now 25k... Let' hit 10k in 2019 shall we?
