I mean... Why could they remove the standard color shots of Railgun? did it hurt to keep them like they were in the past?

 

M0 - Blue (Current color for every Railgun)

M1 - Dark Blue 

M2 - Purple

M3 - Golden 

 

Whats the problem? Why not? M0 shots are too cringy, I feel so weird when i shoot with an M3 Railgun and it shows the M0 color, Something weird happens and while Im aiming at the enemy, the shot goes right next to him. Also i feel like the quality of the color has been reduced, it's like watching Pixels.

 

I dont know, Somebody explain me why in the name of god they decided to do this, first they removed the white color from XT Railgun, now they removed litterally every color shot from Railgun so if we dont like the standard (Bad) M0 Color shot, we go buy a ton of Containers and if we are lucky enough we may find some non-cancer Railgun shots.

 

Thats a shame. It doesnt feel anymore like playing a legendary game, like it used to be in the past.

It's not nice that they removed the old colour of railgun, however, the new update is so good. There are lots of new colours, and also not only for the railgun, for lots of guns. 

 

If they would give the Golden Colour back to us, and sell the new colours with crystals, I would be glad. But now, I'm not total glad since they took the golden colour from me.

Add back the old colours of Railguns (M2, M3 etc) and keep the new colors in the containers, Everybody will be happy with this

You explained it yourself. The decision to move shot colours into containers was to generate revenue for the game without affecting the gameplay balance between "buyers" and free players.

only thing i'm unhappy about is that i can no longer tell whether those purple balls hitting me from behind are fired from a twins or a ricochet... other than that i don't give a fart. you don't like your colour, you pay for a new one.

At least tanki would do them able to be buying with crystals. I don't think it's nice. Really it's not nice. I am an XP player since 2013-2014, and I have never seen something like that, I would be glad if tanki bring the old colour of rail back and add new ones to the containers.

 

But it is nice to see that tanki didn't make m5s e_e 

 

Tanki can generate revenue by making new paints etc. Anyways, I think it's the best idea to wait for other players' thinkings.

There should be at least purchasable shot colors. These shot colors are pretty normal colors. Only the special exciting shot colors can be only obtained through containers. So a white freeze would be considered normal and purchasable using crystals. But a neon green freeze would be container only. A yellow firebird would be considered normal and purchasable using crystals. A blue firebird would be container only.

I wouldn't say that we "earned" them. More like they were just given to us. If it would have always been like this and we'd never know any better, then there wouldn't be any problems or complaints. Honestly, it's just a change of colour for your turrets - no need to turn it into such a big deal.

What the hell are you talking about? We PAYED, with our own money, for these colors when we payed for the m3 modification. Some players even payed, using real money, for crystals to buy this modification. The game clearly stated that the golden shot color would come with the m3 modification. You cannot take something that we payed for away without any compensation. This could actually be considered a scam by your company that you represent. And, if players really wanted, a law suit could easily take place, because you have taken away our money. At that point, you can please call your dear sidlob to help you with legal issues.

 

If it had always been like this, then we would not have PAYED for the colors. Then, there would not be any problems without you charging us for them.

 

In addition, are you also saying that the company cannot make money just because this one color is taken. Have you seen the color wheel? The developers can literally close their eyes, click anywhere on the color wheel, and get a new color. The possibilities for revenue are still endless, even if a couple colors are taken away.

 

Do you understand now? Or shall we start some schooling?

You paid for the improvement of turret parameters, and the shot colour is just something that came along with it. Say what you want, but I will not believe anyone who says that when they bought a new turret modification their only incentive for doing so was getting a new shot colour, not the better parameters.

 

As for a law suit - I must remind you that the EULA specifically states that developers reserve the right to add/change/remove any item in the game without giving an explanation or refunding the players. And you agree with the EULA if you're playing the game.

 

I understand why some players are upset about their rail going back to blue colour, but I'll say it again - while it sucks to have things taken away from you, I have no idea why people are making such a huge deal out of some pointless visual effects.

At this point, its simply a defense from you on behalf of the company. Yes, its a visual effect, I did not question that. However, if the game clearly states that this color is coming along with the upgrades for a modification, then I would expect that color to be included in the price that I am paying for that modification. Therefore, if you take away that color after we have payed for it with the price of the modification, t just doesn't add up. We were basically scammed into buying it, only to have the need to buy it again.

 

Hopefully that was explained well enough for you too understand. If not, maybe I could do you a favor and break it down into some baby words.  ;)

 

According to what you just wrote, the EULA states that they can change or remove any aspect that we payed for in the game. That seems fair, if you add something, we payed for it, but maybe it didn't fit into the game or it was too overpowered, and you decided to remove it that would still be pretty fair. It would be nice to receive some compensation, but it would be completely understandable if the company would decide not too. But, to make people pay for something, remove it, and then make them pay for it again? Now, that's a scam. You bought something because you liked it, the upgrade and the color that comes with it, and then they company knows you like it, so they take it out and make you pay for it again.

 

You say we shouldn't like colors of a shot. who the hell cares about your opinion? Who are you in the first place? You are just one little player in this game. Same for each of us, except we have other players that agree with us, making out opinions of more significance. How about listen to the majority of players instead of only focusing on yourself? Oh wait, your work for a company.  :huh:  In addition, your opinions are already biased towards the company because you are already representing the company, just look at your little avatar.

 

Furthermore, if you say, "who should care about the appearance of what we buy, we should only care about the effectiveness," then why does the company that you represent still design and sell XT alterations? They only improve the look of your turret or hull, and not the effectiveness of the turret or hull as well. Can you kindly explain this too me? Why would a player want to buy an XT alteration for a turret?

 

in fact, your entire argument is illogical. If people do not care about colors and visual effects, then why the hell are you trying to sell them to us again? Wouldn't this mean that the players are not interested in, and would not buy your product? How would your company make money then? Seems odd doesn't it?

 

As a representative of the company, I think you should also take the time to fully address all of the questions we have. Therefore, please answer the following question that you previously left unanswered:

"In addition, are you also saying that the company cannot make money just because this one color is taken. Have you seen the color wheel? The developers can literally close their eyes, click anywhere on the color wheel, and get a new color. The possibilities for revenue are still endless, even if a couple colors are taken away."

 

Thank you for your time.

It did actually affect the beauty of the game especially for the blue Railgun 

Not to forget these weird coulours like Black Friz or green Railgun/Rico It just make the game look like a 9 years old game not a eSport Serious game.

Atleast they could of left the games coulour the same from M0/1/2/3 and add additional coulours for "buyers" to make extra cash but not change evrything and make it ugly

Your losing thousand of players for few dollars u get from buyers

I don't know man, but to me that's exactly what Tanki is. A game for children (and casual games in general), but definitely not an "eSports serious game"  :lol:

I was hoping for a more realistic, professional looking color. The golden shot color of railgun did not look cartoonish. Yes, some of the new shot colors may look nice, but at the end of the day, they do not fit into the game. I mean really, sparkling purple gas spewing out of a turret called firebird or freeze?

 

I just don't want to get scammed for something that I payed for.

... isn't that what you're here to play? otherwise why do you care about the colour of your railgun?

Why do you think that players in War Thunder (realistic tank simulator) grind kills to get better camos? Because they want to look cool.

 

Same in Tanki. Tanks with some paints look more cool than tanks with other paints. Everyone wants paints which make them look cool. Skins and shot effects also make your tank look cool.

I have no idea why people are making such a huge deal out of some pointless visual effects.

Well here's what I have to say about that:

 

1. Animated paints are also pointless visual effects. But players still are willing to spend 30 USD to get 1 of them, or even spend 100 USD worth of containers to try pulling a special one out of a container.

 

2. TO Devs have made it clear that they will not make any small updates that they believe is pointless. Why would the devs add "pointless visual effects" then? There are definitely ideas and suggestions in the I&S sections that must be included in the game, but will never be accepted by the devs. However, shot colors are important enough for the devs to make an update about them.

I'm not saying the update is pointless. I'm saying it's absurd that players are making such a big deal out of their M3 colours being removed when they're just a cosmetic feature.

I wonder if there would be less complaints, if the default color for shots would not be the M0 color, but the former M3 color.

Would everyone be happy then?

 

But whatever.. even if I do not understand your complaint, I am glad that you found a way to post them and to get attention from the game designers. Good luck in your pettition.

 

ps:

what I can truly understand is that xt players are triggered, as they payed/earned something that set's them appart from other M3s. But for non XTs. especially those at high ranks -> they use the same color as everyone around them... so.. it's just the color that has changed. They don't face M2s anymore, where they can feel batter because of the color difference.

If this petition means ANYTHING, and anyone is listening, yeah, um, I wasn't particularly impressed with the new colors, and frankly, some of the more whimsical ones like the black and white smoke from Firebird is down right out of place and makes the game look stupid,  Please, leave the standard shot colors as the defaults, and if fools that play FortNite AND Tanki want some cosmetic "flair", as much as I don't care for it, let them have it, but please don't force us into these awful color schemes that have no real use and actually make us more visible, rather than less, in some instances.

......why not just add this whole game into containers.

Imagine that :D

 

The new Tanki manual in 3 steps:

  1. Register a nick name
  2. Go to the garage and open your free containers, if you get the "tanki drivers license" you may participage in a battle!
  3. if not, pls go to the shop and purchase as many containers as you please, until you receive the drivers license!

 

:D

 

(oh boy, that woud be something for Aprils fools day.. :D  But I fear, after the recent changes too many folks would take that one for real :) :) :) )

So if we took away some of your XTs or maybe that Frost paint you had, and made you pay for it again just because we are introducing a next line of "Frost" paints, you would be completely fine?

 

 

You haven't even responded to the post I wrote, mainly because I'm sure I roasted all of your arguments you to perfection  ;) Sorry if I burned your Thankgiving turkey this year. At least i didn't cause a fire in your house by using too much oil. I'm sure you're the one flaming with anger now, though  :wub:
