completed Being able to buy more protection module slots

[LOLKILLERTOTHEDEATH 1,921]

I think that the title will probably confuse players a lot. In the current sytem (updated today) I noticed that you can have a maximum of 3 turrets as protection. My idea, is to add a way to purchase more protections (maximum 5 protections against 5 different turrets) so that you can swap and drop between 5 different turret protections. Maybe 100,000 to get protection against 4 total turrets and 150,000 to get protection against 5 different turrets.

 

The downside would be the max protection. For example, if you use the protection against 4 turrets, you can have a maximum of 35% protection, which means that even if you put all 4 as 50% protection, it will be giving only 35% protection. For 5 turret protection, a maximum of 25% with the same system.

 

I feel that this would be helpful to players, but I don't think it's a legal idea (according to the rules)

Seems like total P2W and terrible for balance between free players and buyers, but then again, so are drones, so... whatever. Just let players buy 14 protection slots for $99.99 each and equip all protections with 50% from each turret. Great idea

The price seems too cheap, you got to multiply it by 10. :ph34r:

Oh no, but the maximum protection decreases linearly from 35%. I mean, you can have a protection module which will let you use 4 protection modules but you get 35% protection from all 4 as a maximum. It goes down from there.

In one video Hazel said 

If they allow quad modules , they need to rework turrets damage

As it would make tanks live longer

And battles would not be enjoyable even for buyers

Exactly ^^

Why not make sidlob's special module available to everyone in the shop then? :D

Some Helpers use that advantage of their Spectrum B modules, and while it is rare to find one in a battle, it happens. Despite being 20%, it is against all 14 different sources of damage, and without being a mathematician you can see what it means if in addition the helper is a lower rank and is preferably a buyer with OP equipment and thousands of supplies. Being a helper, receiving a Helper (and whole bunch of other paints depending on their position) and crystals for compensation of time spent instead of earning crystals in battles is already enough for a real helper. In other words, I think that additional stuff easing one's game for being good at it is just unproportional, applying not only on helpers but to other players owning Spectrum modules, excluding sidlob.

Also a great idea, I'll report that one to developers as well! What should the price be? $999.99 or $9999.99?

 

 

The whole post that you quoted was kinda sarcastic. I would probably even decline the idea saying that it's too P2W, but in light of the recent drones update and the prices devs put for the batteries (combined with the rate at which they get used), it seems like no idea is "too much pay-to-win" anymore.

Logical and balanced, but that what not happens

AYYY! So it seems this was my idea.

100k crystals is a lot better than 5k tankcoins.

But it was Maf who got the implementation right:

Not always. For example, I'd rather get 5k tankoins for free than 100k crystals for free .

All cheekiness aside, point taken.

Oh, I meant for pricing. I'd rather spend 100k crystals for a 4th module than spend 5k tankcoins for a 4th module.

The suggestion itself is totally fine, however the execution of the idea has been done poorly
