So u would rather take the fact u cant buy ANY alts for crystals over the fact most of alts are crystals and some Tankoins.
Besides u can still get them from containers it seems, so u dont have to spend that much TK to get them.

It's good AND bad.  Yeah we can once again buy turret alterations from garage (for inflated prices)

But they made it easier for BUYERS to get the best hull alterations. They don't have to gamble with containers - they can pick-and-choose.

But the rest of us peasants will never be able to afford almost 5000 TKs.  Since TKs have come out I've managed to save 500.  1/10 of what it costs for the potent hull alts.

Since the hull alts are the most potent - the bad outweighs the good.

Not actually. Nobody waned turret augments to be OP & expensive. Everybody will be happy if Alternativa just make them balanced like earlier & available for the earlier prices

Yes, remove magnum, magnum alts and its skin, and im happy owo XD

5x7x6 = 210k TK, none gonna buy that many Tankoins for augments but okay... 

If they put them for crystals... the game balance would go even further thru the window than it already is

If one group (Buyers) is the only group that has access to the most potent stuff  then the balance is already gone.

F2P tankers have no realistic chance of getting the hull alterations.  That means we still have no protection from freezing and afterburn while buyers do.

Don’t underestimate the will of buyers these days

[Mirza7 235]

I appreciate that you took action based on player's feedback but let me just say this WHAT IS WRONG WITH YOU. Now augments are luxury items, any rich toddler can buy them but not many players can. Why is this system so biased against not so rich players?. I am currently 3rd Lieutenant, total amount of crystals I have made in my entire playtime is "159 229". all of which can hardly afford equipment micro upgrades.

One more thing. With this update we will move Railgun’s «Round stabilization» augment in containers from «Epic» to «Rare» category.

My only hope of getting useful augments is now from containers. assuming they are still available in containers as stated in quoted line above. Well played tanki!

I assume alterations are gonna stay in containers tho, so ...

If they stay then F2P have a chance of getting those alts... If not then u are right

[sharifsahaf 656]

did we just win? i mean i wrote lots of emails to them regarding the update and of course all of us have been raging on in the forum .but the prices are so high now .i guess its a compromise

The problem is that alterations became norm in TO, which was never supposed to happen, like literally everyone in Legend MM uses a turret alt these days, and they wanna change that where everyone can get them, but its not like everyone has them...

[2shots2kills 2,364]

A step in the right direction. Even though the prices have increased, at least you listened.

A chance... at an "epic" tier... and there are 7 hulls.   The "chance" you speak of to get a hull alt you can use is incredibly small.

So practically - there is no real chance.

Finally someone with common sense xd

Literally if u come Legend MM, u see how many people use turret alterations... its a norm at this point

And for every one of your example there will be hundreds that get what I got in oening 15 containers so far ... supplies, crystals, soccer paints and a shot effect for a turret I do not own.

[kumee 30]

they did listen just the buyers because now you have to become one of the buyers to get hulls alterations. crystals or containers is better than Tankoins.

4 990 tankoins

• Augment «EMP Immunity» for hulls

• Augment «Heat Immunity» for hulls

• Augment «Cold Immunity» for hulls

• Augment «Stun Immunity» for hulls

• Augment «Heavyweight Construction» for hulls

• Augment «Lightweight Construction» for hulls

Guys. Honestly, I felt REALLY good UNTIL I read this part. 

This broke my happiness as soon as I saw this price!

This is 5,000 Tankoins.

 

MATH:

We only get 6 Weekly containers a week.

3 from each container.

18 Tankoins a week + 100 every Challenge (1/2 a month).

936 a year with weekly containers + 2,400 a year from Challenges (if we do them ALL) = 3,336 a year.

We won't have enough Tankoins to get even ONE AUGMENT for ONE HULL! Please think about your prices. I HONESTLY thought either we were getting all of the augments for CRYSTALS, or I thought we would be able to buy the Augments, listed above, for 100 TANKOINS each! (Every Challenge, we can buy an Augment if we so choose).

 

I REALLY want(ed) to get EMP Immunity for one of my Hulls. Please lower it to 100 Tankoins. Thank you.

(I did like the rest of this Update.)

You can get them from containers but u might get some other alts but we will see how this goes

[AudimasLTU 62]

HALLELUJAH!!! Praise the lord! They DO listen to us!!

[Catbird 117]

This is a great compromise, the containers still are more appealing than before with the possibility to get augments while the players who want specific augments can invest into it. I'm really happy for this!

[Zurya 76]

Man they finally listened to their players
