update New currency «Shards». Other changes

[Demonic.King 73]

I think this update will stay for a limited time or will be nerfed soon because a player can now earn crystals,supplies,golds and legit everything without even going into a single battle. Though this could be a relief for all those mid rank noobs who grind very hard in MM on special Events Map and rank way too quick and end up having weak equipment.

But this watching AD per 7 mins and getting 20+ containers a day will spoil the game's economy. Most likely they will increase the AD's time gap or increase the Amount of Shards needed for 1 container.This will affect MM badly because now people won't need to use supplies and play battles in order to get crystals. They can simply watch ADs and upgrade their garage.

I'm not against this update, but am saying that EXPLOIT THIS SHARDS AS MUCH AS U CAN BEFORE THOSE DEVS NERF THIS THING 

Remember Coinboxes? In the starting they were soooo good. You could get a million crystals just by opening a hundred coinboxes! But Now.... They're more famous as Scam-containers, because all u get is 1 Tankoins out of them. The same might happen to your Shards.... Watchout

It could be easily exploited with a little bit of programmation on Mobile without lifting a finger...

I play for my happiness I impossible to waste my time watching ads to get a progress instead of normal playing, I haven't watched an ad before in Tanki and wont. If I want some sort of a progress without playing, I would pay with $. Not wasting my time with boring ads.

You can get one Container after 80 minutes!! Imagine wasting my time (with extremely boring), to get zapped by a 125 Mines from a container

I think is possible they stay and not nerf anything, because game is dying anyway... For example i will say you my case. I was playing tanki before around 2 years and i left, because i was even with premium WHOLE year, play a lot, and always i must pay almost everything crystals i have earned for drugs to can play again... Thats why i left You must always drug hard to be competitive, give a lot of your time for gaming, pay whole year premium and almost nothing, just do m4 freeze, m4 fire, buy some m3, and i payed a lot for protection modules, and if i want play i must pay more real money for drugs or waste my crystals, again for drugs...Just to can play! My economy bad and this is just to can play! Not to win very crystals and get big advantage over others or something...! But now i see good things happen and i see potential i can play without give almost all my crystals for fking drugs, and can do some m4 and play with drones without pay a lot with real money. My real 5 cents. I don`t lie. This should be done much Earlier, IMO. If this is nerfed or gone i will left again, too greedy tanki and can`t play this almost totally pay2win game even if i liked it... Tanki was just always telling me "Eeh, if you want to play, just give me your money"

I tend to be quite critical lately, but I have to give it to you Tanki devs, the boxes have been quite a positive surprise to me. Props for that. Opened around 20 so far and have been lucky enough  to get a good number of crystals, gold boxes, a shot effect, animated paint, and two augments. Not bad, not bad.

Could I ask which augments? I have never got any augments from normal containers!

Where you can see that counter of 13.33 minutes?

I think it is be most fair to see all counters free and not free and for every sort of

getting with counter which counting down that we know when is next come in.

The clock says 22 hours and 13 minutes after reset.

Now to know how many minutes per Shard you do some Mathematics, sorry.

22 hours = 1320 minutes, because 22 hours x 60 minutes.

Then you add the remaining 13 minutes, for a total of 1333 minutes.

Now you divide 1333 minutes / 100 Shards, and you'll get 13.33 minutes per Shard.

What if we would replace stars with shards? The only way to earn stars is to from missions. I dont know it might trigger no life people because they earn few hundred stars a day..

Crusader Cold Resistance and Mammoth Lightweight construction, also managed to find Assault Rounds for Smoky yesterday or day before.

They aren't the most useful, but hey, better to get them from regular container than from Ultra :D

No I will do my self much clear.

They says that when we are in a game only then there is a counter that count 13.33 minutes

(800 seconds) and only if you are in a game you get a one shard no one mentioned 22 hours and 13 minutes.

Or is it 800 seconds play or not play but why is it not one counter one by one,

I don't need A big counetr for a 100 shards, I just need to know when it will be next one.

Is it simple enough for understanding?

BOOOM, No more shards from ads, for now... maybe... Do you guys have same problem, i restarted game, phone etc, but nothing help... Checked on other account who wasnt watching more than 10 ads for the whole period and there also the same. Can`t watch ads, can`t get shards from them. Something happened, maybe is over, at least for me.

 

Edited: Lol, at this moment they works again for me, nice.

Right? I got that same reward 3 times since this update was released. Got 4-5 paints (two of them of purple-container rarity) got the uranium augment and lots of supplies (mostly speed boosts and mines).

I don't know what to say for other supply but mines

"Oh the mines, Oh that sympathetic mines I really don't know what will I do without the mines!". 

[vecky 93]

On this 22h I only can conclude that it is one shards for this time.

One counter, one time to countdown and one shards.

Simple enough

i have a question (forgot to ask it since the relase of this update)

you can get 150 shards if you complete all 3 daily missions but if claimed them all in a row will i get 50 shards after i get the container or it will be 0?

They will added up to become 2,3or more containers for you to claim in 1 go, what left extra will be there

The time has been extended for sure, but I am not sure about the time.  I just noticed that it was not unlocked even after a battle while they state "Finish a battle to unlock".

 

Edit: It is 1 hour at the moment.

Lets say 1 is a Countdown Clock and 2 is a Shard Counter

After a reset the Countdown Clock will say 22h 13m, and the Shard Counter will say 0/100.

That means that in 22 hours and 13 minutes the Shard Counter will be full (100/100).

You don't have to stay logged on for the Countdown Clock to advance, you can just log in to claim a container and log off, then log in after 22h 13m and the Shard Counter will be full.

The Mathematics is:

22 hours * 60 minutes = 1320 minutes

1320 minutes + 13 minutes = 1333 minutes

That means 22h 13m = 1333 minutes.

Then 1333 minutes / 100 shards = 13.3 minutes per 1 shard.

Someone said the Wiki says 800 seconds, so if you divide 800 seconds / 60 seconds = 13.333... minutes. Which is about the same.

Idk if the time is nerfed, it might be a bug followed with the friday update, let's see after the server restart.

Everything is good but what I wanted to say is the system would me much simpler for understanding

when it will be the your counter 1=from 0 to 13.33 (and resets every time when it goes to the 13.33)

and your counter 2= from 0 to 100 shards.
And when the counter goes to the 100 Claim button is shown or enabled and VOILA.

I think with that model the system of giving and taking shards and containers will be much understandable.

But on current model 22 h and 13 m is much confusing.

yes, I noticed that since Friday,

imagine 20 container per day for tanki,

the ad wait is more than 7min for sure, more than half hour for sure, but still working, after I give up and play some game for a hour or 2 , the ad watching button is green again.

-

also the next day wake up, it is green again for sure.

[RIDDLER_8 5,552]

It would be a good idea if an auto-claim feature was added to this 100 shards feature gain so that players do not miss out on claiming containers.

That's the point. They want us to log in and claim the container everyday.

[wild001 1,422]

Confirmed, ad watch nerf to 1 hr per 10 shards, from 7min per 10 shards.

also max ad shards is 24x10=240

that is 2.4 container from ad.

instead of 20 container from ad.

[RIDDLER_8 5,552]

Now that there is a new currency called "Shards", it would be a great idea for developers to add a "Shards Paint" to containers.

I wish that we could watch ads like with the mobile version in the browser version of Tanki Online. One advert would reward players with 10 shards. That is 10 shards per one hour for each ad watched. That is a suitable thing to add in the web browser version of Tanki Online.
