update Hot Sales

[lssimo 1,559]

I learned about it like 10 Earth minutes before the end. I didn't even try.

My Facebook notification setting didn't work.

What notification type shoud be on? I can't turn on all notifications.

And maybe do another of this this weekend but when a diferent Earth hemisphere is facing our local star.

So the only sale from this hot sale was this morning? I thought they might have like 2-4 spread out throughout the day. I missed the one... And Ill probably miss it tomorrow morning as well. Time zones werent really taken into consideration? Or just severe limit to the hot sales... Or were they not always announced in this forum when they happened?

You never agree to anything, please at least appreciate the good updates..

I mean, the sales are very likely released with intention that many people will miss out on them. That's what tankers should keep in mind. These are not  sales meant for the whole population of Tanki, otherwise they could pretty much hold the sale whole day.

The real question is how well will Tanki distribute these sales around that 24h time clock, and whether they will make sales that will also appease their US/Americas side of the playerbase, or whether they will stick to times that will favor their (very likely much larger) Russian/Europe playerbase.

Either way, I am glad these are back, nice to get the equipment dirt cheap.

I don't remember that there were a 70% discounts before

But I remember that we had a 90% discounts in the past All you have to buy a certain thing that cost 15,000 crystals (that was too high), many players have paid with real money and lost $$ waiting for these incredible discounts, sadly in that time I wasn't have an enough crystals. Lastly it's appeared that it was just an April's fool

i think that you mean smoky+ wich was better than the normal smoky. it was very expensive but came every day cheaper because of the sale that increased each day 10 %. up to 90%.

the day after it was removed from the garage because it was a permanent item

[iplayatankonline 102]

Grab them hulls!

[iplayatankonline 102]

Oh, I didnt realize it... its only a flash sale on hovering hulls. 

[yasgfgfffgf 282]

it is only on hovering hulls

[wild001 1,422]

I am lucky, 16 min since the hot sale is on,

 

90,000 from mk1 to mk7, not bad for new hull.

No thanks, don't want those hovering crap. Why no sale on all hulls?

[TWICE 798]

The game is so slow now.  It took over 10 minutes to buy and upgrade the Crusader from Mk1 to Mk5 in my alternate.

[Knafo 790]

Oops! 

I've already upgraded my hulls on the last sales 

But still good luck for those who didn't 

[SporkZilla 1,775]

Missed this one by seconds. A Mk6 Hovering Crap to muck around with in Parkour for just 64'500 crystals would have been nice, but not that bothered.

Also remember that a Mk7 Product Kit isn't much more expensive than a Mk1-7 Hull + Turret + Module with 70% off, 382'500 crystals v around 350'000 crystals

Yeah it's slower but not 10 minutes, like 5 seconds.

There are no kits with hovering hulls at the moment...

I know, but there might be eventually (like Gauss kits)

But my point was also not being too upset about lack of sales on other hulls because of the product kits

So everyone wants hoppers nerfred/out because they're taking the fun away for normal players that want to catch golds.

Tanki: let me put more pain by releasing a 70% sale on HOPPERS.

We have not only decided to choose the best time frames but also to have these hot sales twice at different times. Hope that we met your expectations and you managed to buy something.

But I do not understand, do you mean those offers that were offered on a custom weapon or tank, or as discounts on every garage?

These discounts are applied to some categories of items.

Would these sales be on specific items or on all items in the garage? For example: On all turrets at once or on smoky?

Check my answer above ^

Why could you not announce them in the game itself? Not everyone has Facebook or Instagram!

Boosting our social media profiles :-D Maybe next time we will also announce it in Discord

so is there a server update (schutdown) to inplement this discount or will it just come visible any minute in our garage?. i dont remeber me that this happend in 2014 but i do know supersale on smoky+ (wich deals more damage)  wich became cheaper evryday and went away again after a few days.

No servers restart is needed

Well, why should they be on all hulls? We have decided to have sales only on hovering hulls this Sunday.

[Marcus 17,296]

Ok guys, I got ya.

We understand that some of you were not awake during these sales. These sales are not one-time thingy, we will have them again later. Maybe next time the times will be different. And other part of players won't be awake. There is no option to have these sales when everyone is awake. That's why they are called hot sales and that's how it works.

[iplayatankonline 102]

Sorry for the negativity Marcus. But let me just back track. This is actually really good sales. What i failed to realize is maybe that this is just an ongoing thing maybe? Like not isolated to the 3 days left in this event, or this weekend. Even after monday night, this is still an ongoing thing? 

There is an unfortunate side to it of course, but who can complain with a shot at 70% sales. Id rather have this sort of thing in the game than not.

I dont really suffer from FOMO, but boy those who do will not enjoy this :(. Id rather have missed the hovering hulls, and been around for the augments but such is life.

If there are shots to get these sales more than once, again all the power to the update. 

Its really not a bad update. Even to complain about hopper, then see hopper go on 70% sales. The problem is hopper. Not the sales. And those who bought, or already have, eventually it will be nerfed a bit more than what it was and then they spent for it but something else becomes stronger. 

I picked up crusader and ares. They are both very low on upgrades. But still. Also, I realized I must like to drive backwards ... I do a lot with Titan and maybe a couple other hulls. When I went to test them and use their ODs, I shot in wrong direction .... haha guess I am a noob. Have to remember to stay pointed in right direction. Also if manuevering makes it that I do need to spin or rotate and go in reverse, have to memorize the looks of the hovering hulls a bit more. Not a complicated thing, but I failed to crusade correctly the first time. After I tested out Ares, it recharges health and kills even faster than I realized when its used against me.

Would be the sensible thing to do, how about putting it in the forum, that would be even better.

Because most players don't like them, they are OP legal hacks, hope that clears up the reason why.
