I'm gonna take a stroll on one of my accounts and see how far I can get with 15 Coinboxes. 

How’d it go?

No, it does not. 

 

That's not how the Micro-Upgrades system works. 

Before the convertion update it was like that, i upgraded my M1 rail to equivalent of m2 w/c has 1202 damage also my M1 vulcan, i made my turrets and hull = M2 back then , and im waiting for the right rank to fully make it m2, i can see the cost drop each time i upgrade it ,until it reach 10/10 the cost droped to -100% which is basically 0, so by the time i reach the rank i will need 0 crystals to make it m2, this is my observation, and im pretty sure about it because for someone like me who doesn't have much crystals and an f2p i pay attention to the costs. Now im wondering why did it change, so basically now any upgrade 1-10 or whatsover becomes somewhat almost useless , its like whats the use of micro upgrade when you need to buy everything at the same ****ing price all over again.

When you fully upgrade an item, it becomes free. It's obvious not to upgrade an item, only to buy its next modification at full price. Either wait for the next unlock rank (and maybe do the first few cheap upgrades), or upgrade an item completely to buy the next modification for free.

According to my memory, the price of the next modification never dropped from upgrades (which, a few years ago, boosted only specific aspects such as damage, impact force of turrets, etc. and not the whole turret). An update combined all different aspects into singular upgrades and made the next modification available for free if fully MUed.

So you guys have removed the "kits" and drug kits, and now offer the same for a premium. Tanki has become more of a money making machine than an actual game. There is no more team or interest. From 15 min to a mere laggy 6 min, overdrive tampering, crappy game prices. Sad really, it has deteriorated

Near half the battles don't even last 7 minutes. 5 flags captured in like 6 minutes, jgr killed 7 times in 5 minutes and so on..

Increasing time limit won't help much....

Team balance is so bad..

Often all the good players are put in 1 team. They really need to work on fixing how the system splits up the players into the 2 teams.

 

Decorated bushes and advertisement boards, different gold box skin and drop zone don't improve gameplay...

I could not be mistaken because i have done and seen it my self few times, i upgraded my vulcan M1 10x = m2 and the time i reached 2nd LT. the price was 0, i don't know why u don't know this stuff, product kits are good buy because it offers earlier access to turrets and hulls , like for ex. u can have m2 vulcan if u buy anaconda kit at warrnt officer 5, but if u micro u have to wait until 2nd lt. OM goodness , u probably all have millions of crstals u could careless about the cost and u din't pay the details, before if u 10/10 something when u reach the right rank u can buy it at lower price if it is 10/10 u can see "BuY M2   0" and if u look at turret or hull u will see how much it dops -75%  -100% depends on the upgrade u have,the more u spend crystals  the less it will cost if u reach the rank.

I guess you didn't get what I said, I said you get the next modification for free if you fully upgrade it. But you don't get a 75% or so if you have upgraded it but not fully.

Some crystals and batteries. Got back around 110 Tankoins. Used it to buy 5 more and got all green rarity. I'm satisfied that I didn't lose too many Tankoins in the process.

 So Premium account now also gives the ability to buy product kits and supplies kits bought with crystals?

 

Product kits can be bought for crystals even without premium account. But only from html5 version, not flash.

Supplies kit i think have been removed for crystals. even with premium, i dont think possible to buy supply kits for crystals
