This games is not fun anymore!

[goldsnaiper 2]

I remember when I first started playing this game, it was so fun everything was mostly balanced, there were crystal crates that fell from the sky that contained 1 crystal, it was fun to grind for crystals to upgrade everything. But now this game is so boring, you create a new account and when you start the first thing you notice that it's mostly pay to win. If you're broke don't even start to play, there's just no point. You will get punished by a dude who has put $1k into his account has bought as much supplys as possible so all he does is spam 1,2,3,4 has m2 as soon as he first logs in.

Once you make the game how it was when it was atleast fair and fun I might get back to playing!

Man up, you can do it without paying.

Bro, all the games become boring if you play a lot.

I , personally, got bored from tanki and some other games too.

The game might not be boring, if they make a lot of updates.... I dont see Pay2win in the game anymore.. just that problem that appeared in middle ranks ( 9000 GS I wish it'll be solved soon ) and umm.. nothing.. it became fairer.

About being bored, the game need to make more work and updates.

Is it fair that buyers get alterations now for money instead of crystals? I understand Xts and shot effects but having to buy alterations for real money isn't fair at all. Wouldn't be surprised when they release a new hull/turret and make it for real money instead of crystals. This game is p2w

Untrue. Myself and others do very well in battles, even without buying crystals to upgrade equipment.

If there are options to get an advantage buy using real $$ then it is still technically P2W.

I don't see any pay2win in the game now... 

after the mk update, depsite there is 9000 GS in low ranks ( devs are aware of this problem and they'll try to find solutions ) , game has become more fair and tankoins now is mostly used for cosmetics and kits. It's not hard to buy an alt, plus you can get a lot of supplies, now modifications update help non-buyers.

Don't think that putting an alteration for tankoins or real money would make buyers stronger, alterations don't make people stronger, it just changes the way of how does the turret work.

About the balance, I see tanki improving a lot!

About the fun, umm, They release an update every 5 ages, they work slowly and they keep new modes permanently.. They should add "LTM" Limited Time Modes System to make modes fun.. Keeping modes permanently is not a great thing. Special Missions added more fun to the game, but the game still needs more updates to be really playable and fun for new players.

This game has a great potential... don't be disappointed..but don't think about this game all the time.

[Michael828 816]

The pay2win aspect surely declined during the past two years, as a non-buyer (or very light buyer) I'm personally doing a lot better than a year ago. Many turrets and alterations have been balanced and a greater amount of rewards are given to casual players through challenges and stuff.

But I agree  it's fairly boring nonetheless.

    Totally agree! Tanki is no where near pay2win! Who care's tanki has been working on a "solution" for the 9000gs in low ranks battles for years! Who cares once tankioins were rolled out they raised the price of EVERYTHING! "It's not hard to buy an alt" Now a days you cannot get a new alt unless you spend $50, Free players can never get that same alt unless you're a buyer, so maybe for you its not hard spending $50 on an alt but for a lot of us it is. It also does make them pretty strong lol, able to shoot you once and disable your supplys and shoot you again to kill you if you don't have protection, but who care's i'm so glad buyers can now change game play if they have the money!

Ok.. I respect your opinion.. In 2016, tanki was pay2win. It has been pay2win for 3 years may be or 4. Why?

1- Buyers were having the ability to get 1500 Supplies pack which gave them a big advantage while non buyers had to save a lot to buy something like this

2-  There were 4 modifications only, which make a big difference between m1 and m2. Now, there are 7 modifications, there is just a small difference between mk3 and mk4

3- As a result from the previous point, buyers could jump from m2 to m3 easily at middle ranks. Now they have to face mk5 and mk6 and " REACH " the required rank to unlock the mk7.

4- Tanki was pay2win too when Tankoins were used to buy the supplies pack and the batteries pack. Now tanki removed them so we don't have to worry again. New Buyers won't get a lot of supplies quickly like before. Plus, NON-Buyers now can get supplies easily, you have missions , you have garage, you have containers, and you have challenges too!

Now, tanki has become less pay2win and as soon as 9000 GS problem disappears, everything will be solved.

But wait!!! You said tanki didn't care about 9000 GS in low ranks for years!! This problem hasn't been for years, only 1% people could afford m4  at these ranks , but normal buyers were m3.. This problem really happened when they implemented modifications update 4 months ago , people who had fully upgraded m2 got m3 so they made it m4.. Devs actually talked about this problem and explained how it would disappear.

Alterations, alterations doesn't give power to the buyer, it changes the way of how does the turret work. You can get alts by buying them from the garage. Let me talk about the new alt which deactivates supplies, it deactivates supplies yes!!, but the turret loses his splash damage and damage is reduced. Which doesn't make you stronger, it just deactivates enemy's supplies but make your turret weaker too! Anyway, this is a limited-time alteration. Even if you don't buy it now , you won't have a chance to get it again! But if you don't buy it, no problem , it won't make the whole game unbalanced  .

Tankoins raised the price of everything. But Non-buyers can buy from the shop now, do u know when tankoins were added to weekly containers, you could get 3TK/weekly container

which is 18/week = 72/month = 864/year . So you got approximately 1000 tankoin/year

When tankoins were added to the challenges, you could get 142/month= 1704/year which is really better!

Now when they changed challenges ( depsite the new challenges system have a lot of disadvantages ) , you could get 172/month which is 2000/year!!!!!!

They raised the prices of the shop to keep the economy of the game safe, where is the fun if you could buy everything on the main servers like on the test servers! They just give the ability for non-buyers to buy from the shop, not making buying from the shop easier!

If you collect 75 stars per day, you might finish the challenge without having pain...and then you can buy a lot of useful things from the shop... 

and in addition to that, you can win tankoins from contests !!

and if you can't play challenges, or win contests, you can get coinboxes during holidays, it gives only tankoins, it can give you up to 10 000 tankoins!!!!!! so it's better to focus on them.

So where is the Pay2win mechanic!!!

Pay2win is a mechanic that gives the ability to the buyer to become stronger by doing purchases for real money.

I would agree that the game was pay2win in 2016,2017,2018,2019 but since they removed supplies packs and they implemented modifications update, it had become a lot more fairer.

 

[0tsutsuki 21]

p2w p2w p2w.... I only enjoy test servers now, atleast the tanks are leveled for the battle.

And they are making the game so much dynamic without revamping the maps. Great! Those maps were really made for your alterations and ODs. My fav Noise has become uneven.

And not to mention MM. This ids at captain and I assure you, I have already played against all mk7s in this id

[NooNooHead 121]

If you are F2P, you'll have a much bigger challenge. Once you are in a MM battle, press tab and see if the teams are balanced. If there are players on the other side with much better GS than your side, I suggest you look for another battle. MM will sometimes put you on the stronger side. Good luck.

A lot of assumptions here - many I disagree with.

On just a few...

75 stars per day?  Most players (except no-lifers) do not play 25 battles (MINiMUM) per day.

Since they've introduced TKs I've managed to accumulate 400 or so.  In all that time I still can't buy a Battle Pass.

KIts - forget about FTP using TKs.  So crystals.  You are lucky to see 1 kit per day in crystal category. Takes a looong time and often many rank-ups before you see the kit you wanted.  Pretty much a waste of time.

P2W is a mechanic that allows players to get an advantage by using monetary means outside of the in-game economy.  So if I can spend $ to get better modules for my rank, or better drones for my rank or more turrets (for choice) or more MUs, then it's obviously P2W.  F2P tankers have to make choices on what to spend their LIMITED crystals on.  By adding $ to the mix the crystals are no longer LIMITED.  NO choices need to be made.  Buyers can "have it all".

F2P and P2W are not mutually exclusive.  It's odd that people don't understand this.

How long have you been around? You're also a buyer so I guess you wouldn't understand totally what free players go through, may not be a big buyer but you do buy.
I'm only going to reply to some due to not being able to tell if you're serious or you haven't been around that long.
-
9000GS Has been around for years and you would know that if you been playing. In 2015 I was in the m1/m2 ranks and bought a product kit with m3 thunder and m3 hornet. I upgraded them both and went around one shotting them all with DD and continued to be OP till I ranked up about 5 more ranks then I met people my size. Everyone swore I had hacks and some even recorded me to report me when all I did was use money to have a advantage for awhile. I shouldn't of been able to do that but hey money talks. I could pull up 10 old forum threads from years ago of people wondering how such strong players are in their battle if you would like. They tried to fix it with mk1-7 but ended up making it worst 
-
Removing supplies kits don't stop a buyer, they stack up during sales and last for months. You also said "2016,2017,2018,2019" was all pay2win years. We are now 3 months into 2020 and suddenly they fixed all the problems? Not quite. Copying this from wolverine because it couldn't be explained any bettter. "P2W is a mechanic that allows players to get an advantage by using monetary means outside of the in-game economy.  So if I can spend $ to get better modules for my rank, or better drones for my rank or more turrets (for choice) or more MUs, then it's obviously P2W." This goes for alterations too that it seems like you're having trouble understanding. Buyers are able to get OP alterations for $ which free players can NEVER get. If this isn't p2w like you say then I don't know what is.

Agreed it's trash now they have let the buyers gain too much power and couple that with the hull overdrives and the game is just dead...
