Bro dang good job dude! That grind was tough right?? You did amazing dang 

Yeah, tough beyond belief and still 4 days to grind but im already worn out, i dont think i can make it.

[wild001 1,422]

before 4000 star changed, I normally finish challenge 3000 stars 6 days before its end. and save last weekly mission for next challenge.

this 4000 star challenge, I started 6 days late, and thanks to extra star from birthday mission, I will reach 4060 star in last day by just do daily mission and weekly mission, just in time.

-----------

I got 20+days free premium from shard container, and I am always 3x2 stars in mobile TDM, as it give you 3 star when you get 10 kills in mobile.

with crusade OD and auto cannon smoky or any OP long range turret, it is easily doable.

-----------

past challenge always comes with weekend special mission giving you 200 star+,

Why did you start 6 days late? and 1000 stars to grind within that amount of time means you must have spent at least 3 hours per day. Are you trying to say you spent 3 hours per day playing tanki? 

3 hours per day winning every game and being at the top of the leaderboard? Even if you factor in the 10 kills per game it would take atleast 4 hours. Sometimes I feel like regardless of how good you are if your playing solo its a 50/50 whether you win or lose because of how good the enemy team is or if they are bad but using drones make up for it

Also if you did not get the stars from TO BD you would not have completed the BP by its end date. What is going to happen the next bp when there will be no special missions? 

I used to complete daily challenges with 10 days to go sometimes but that was of my choosing. As a gamer, I decide however much time I'd like to spend on a game or if I want to play other games. The need to force me to grab a seat and sit down for 2 hours or more per day for a BP doesn't seem fair.

I planned to give a break from tanki, but tanki give free ultra container and i got good stuff so i am back

 

mobile with crusade is easy to get 10 kill with 6 OD per battle, maybe because i have max garage from years of free playing, and win or lose has no affect on star on mobile

 

6 hr in breaks during weekend and 1 hr in other day, then daily mission only in some days

4000 is hard if no special mission and no premium for me as well. But i have many shard container from mobile, about 5 per day, so free premium most likely in those

 

but whenever i think it takes 1 and half year to get 4th module, i want quit

I have over 430 days of premium days and still find it hard to complete BP so prem is a must if you want to complete daily missions quicker too such as getting 1600 cry in ctf ect.

What is the average amount of time per week you spent playing tanki? I dont know if 6 hours was for Saturday and Sunday or just one day. 

And would you agree that you can't complete BP unless you spend a minimum of 2 hours a day grinding Tanki? That means no parkour battles or XP/BP just MM

4 day of daily mission = 4x150

so just do mission can reach 1050 stars.

During the surprise party weekend i collected the premium day and farmed 700 in one day playing a lot and using various amounts of supplies, i think that day i really did a good job of taking advantage of the premium one of the drones was booster, and like (18 hours online?)

I only spent 30-40 minutes on daily missions and am at 2500+ stars now.  I have no chance to finish it as a causal f2p.

Yeah neither will I, but I don't really care. The rewards without BP isn't really worth trying to grind 4k stars.

 

But I also don't think it really needs to be taken that seriously.

The only difference is that I have almost zero chance to get the 100 TKs which I used to get every two weeks.

[thunderhunter123 741]

I have 2770 Stars right now. We have about 5 days of Missions and gameplay to get stars.

For me, I can get 750 stars from Daily Missions and I can get 200 from a Weekly Mission.

Also, we will get more Weekly Missions next week. So we'll be able to get another 100 Stars from next week's Weekly Mission.

 

So for anyone who has around 2770 stars right now, like I do, we can get to 3820 Stars by the end of the 5 days!

So we need to grind and get 180 stars from battles, Special Missions (if any coming up), and/or buying a few (if needed).

A lot of hours which shows that you need to invest a lot of hours in to the game to get to the end of BP. We know that it is technically possible but not for most casual people. I mean... I dont think most casual players even use the forums so its harder to get an insight off a normal player or someone who plays casually.

Not only are the rewards not worth it at 30 Euro's a month, but its also impossible to achieve. The whole point of playing the game is that you spend less on stars. The way its currently made is that you grind a lot of hours.... almost get to the end of BP but dont... and Tanki scoops in convincing you through the message board to buy stars. 

 

It is something to be taken seriously imo. Battle passes in all games are to cater for the masses. Stuff like special modules like the 20-25% protection modules are for winners of esports games are a niche and shouldnt be for everyone. But battle passes are to increase player engagement and creating a battle pass that is not appropriate for the game is unjust. I do wish to take part in BP and I'm sure there are many people out there who don't like this increase in difficulty.

I have all augments except new shaft one and I'd still like to participate in BP for the containers and skin containers not in the current state. It's at a point where I wont bother with next weeks BP at all unless you get more stars from completing challenges and missions or the number of stars needed are reduced. 

Dont torture yourself to get 100 measly Tankoins. It will take 15 weeks before you can get enough for a full BP so your getting less than 4 BP a year at that rate.

That's 4.3 hours at the bare minimum to get to BP at your current state. Tell me if I'm wrong. 

4.3 hours assuming you get to be at the top of every game and win it. You won't win every game and the decent waiting times and joining games where your on the losing team means it'd take more like 6 hours.

Are you seriously suggesting that people should buy stars? I don't think people should fall in to that trap as I think that's the reason why 4k stars were introduced in the first place. To get people to feel forced to buy stars. Just because stars are in the shop doesn't mean players should buy them. If your going to participate in a BP and spend 1500 tankoins, and spend additional tankoins on top of that to reach the end, a player is better off buying regular or ultra containers directly from the shop instead. If your going to gamble on whether you get BP or not, your better off gambling on ultra containers instead. But BP should never have to be a gamble, it should be a garuantee provided you spend a decent amount of effort on it. Not 2 hours + every day. 

Also I noticed your a forum moderator and you get free crystals for doing what you do? For someone like you, buying stars isn't needed unless your specifically going for rare augments only and idk if your better off spending 15 euros every 14 days on it or just buying containers outright

If there was no special missions you would be around 400 stars behind so you'd be at around 3420.

For those 2-3 levels per day you got, that's including you grinding hard or go home like you said. As someone who has been in the top 10 in weekly leaderboards often I know that with the current state of BP its extremely difficult to acheive.

That's correct this bp does take grinding into account. The only thing that confused me was that you said you were top 10 in the weekly leaderboard frequently. That means you would grind over 500-600k experience in a week which equates to a huge number of stars. With that amount of experience you can easily finish the 4000 star bp with daily and weekly missions. (It might be possible devs might release another super mission on the next bp -idk for sure tho).

You mention that you skip a few daily missions which is only human and that seems to be something the developers can't understand. There's no reason to force people to play Tanki every day.

Grinding 500-600k experience a week would take a lot of time which you claim to do frequently. I don't know if you are living up to your own words.

Nothing to shout about but getting top 10 in previous leader boards shows how much of a commitment you need to make in order to get a huge amount of XP or stars.. Just because I am capable of reaching top 10 in previous leaderboards when it comes to XP and crystals doesn't mean I think everyone should grind hard to achieve the BP. The BP definitely should not be able to be completed by just the top 100 players. The nature of a battle pass is for all players to participate in it, regardless of their level and skill. I'm looking out for players who aren't capable of getting lots of XP every week like I have done in the past. 

Just because I can get 4000 stars IF I grinded a good couple of hours per day does not mean other players should do the same because it's not how a battle pass should work. It's up to me if I decide to play 6+ hours a day if I want to or just go ahead and complete missions and log out. Sadly, the point your missing is that no one should be forced to grind 2 hours a day or more to get to level 50 BP.

 

Also what expectations am I trying to live up to? I've said time and time again that for the average player the current state of BP makes it so that it's impossible to complete. 

 

You've already agreed that this BP takes grinding in to account so of course it's not obtainable for people who dont want to grind. And when I use the term grind, its a broad term but in this case it's grinding for more than 2 hours a day. No one has proved that it takes less than this amount of time and I would be humbled if someone could show me that its possible. But from what I've gathered I know that it isn't

I personally don't think someone who gets free crystals through the game should be giving other people reading this the idea that buying stars is a good thing. I would argue that the increase of star purchases in the shop would lead to a decrease in player engagement in two ways:

1. Players who want the BP no matter what will just buy stars when they are nearing the end of the BP period. There is hardly anyone who buys stars which is why Tanki is making BP harder to complete. The reason for having BP is to increase player engagement, just like all other games. But by having the ability to purchase stars your decreasing the player engagement because a player can just buy stars. So what's the point in having a BP as it's just a mouse and cheese trap. 

2. Players who will happen buy stars will eventually stop buying them as they will realise it's not good value for money (the worst value for money in the game) and eventually stop playing BP entirely. Eventually stop taking part in daily/ weekly missions. 

 

Can't comment on stuff like crisis and how OP it is because I am hoping devs see this thread and are determined to set things right and reduce BP down to 3k stars to cater for the masses or give higher amount of stars per weekly and daily missions so that getting to level 50 requires not too much more effort than doing dailies and spending a few hours in total during the 14 day period that the BP lasts.

Understood but I have seen countless other games with BP even worse or as bad as tanki online. A bad as it sounds, the devs are just trying to make more money by encouraging the purchase of stars and even the battle pass which tripled in price! (500 to 1500). Introducing this change only made tanki a more pay to win game and as a result, this will be the first and last bp I will ever partake in. All we have to do now is to try to share this information with the developers and hope that they realize the great mistake they just made.

I missed a couple days of missions, but managed to catch up via battles, though it was obviously easier for me since I get 6 stars quite often. I think I'll have around a hundred stars extra by the end.

I'll reach 4000 stars now. But next one, I think not.

Need 917 stars in 3 days. With 150 from each day missions; 467 stars remaining. Still got 2 weekly to finish: complete 9/15 daily missions and deal 650.000/1.500.000 damage (so boring) = 300 stars. And 400 stars to collect from special Happy Birthday! missions.

I’m currently around 3450 stars so should be able to complete it now. However I feel like I’ve played a lot this challenge, more than usual, and only missed one day of missions so surprised that I’m probably going to complete on the final day. 
Unless there’s an animated paint I don’t currently have I’m 100% not buying the pass again. 
I like the 3000 stars as gave me a chance to take breaks and instead of grinding I could play pro battles and chill.

use wasp bomb, it can do that much damage with OD in around 10 battle.

one bomb do 9999 = 10.000 damage, in seige, kill 4 tank with bomb give 40,000 damage. so 4 bomb per battle = around 150,000 damage

Name me one other game or a few others that have as little content updates as Tanki and costs more? Aside from an automated battle pass with random rewards (and mostly useless augments), there is only one hull or turret being released and the only thing that is changing are tweaks to turrets, hulls and modules to profit more. For example, introducing critical damage on all turrets. It's nothing new or innovative just a way to nerf or buff current existing items in the game. 

I do agree with you about devs are trying to make more money but there's only so much you can milk from a decaying cow. It is also the last BP I will take part in unless it's made more convenient. I do hope they see our opinions and value them, taking them in to account.

As your someone who plays somewhat regularly and goes pretty hard at it when it comes to mm, would you agree that for a normal player who wants to play casually or slightly more than casually that it would be harder for them to get to level 50 in BP at it's current state. A lot of people have had a huge boost because of the special missions during TO BD but achieving BP should be consistent and not rely on factors such as special missions and unexpected events as such. 

Also, BP was achievable 6-7 days before its end date but many experienced high-scoring players have had to put a decent amount of work in to get to level 50.

I would say that challenges are a good thing. I dont mind time gated content such as BP daily and weekly missions but the effort level required to complete them are not considered at all. Like I said before not a lot of people have the willingness to spend more than 2 hours a day on playing Tanki. The simple thought of having to do so would prevent people to even trying to take part imo.

I feel like because of the long double funds duration many people have played slightly more than they should, convincing devs that maybe it is a good approach. But from my experience after double theres less people and longer waiting times to get in to battles ect. Having said that, you did say you played more than usual which does show that you do need to put a fair amount of hours every day to get to level 50 BP. 

It does say a lot when someone who has played a lot says they are surprised that they are going to make it to the end of the battle pass. I knew I would not complete before I reached 2k stars.  

I see people using the same paint they have for a while, the new BP animated paints are only worn for a few days then people switch to what they normally have or something else. That's what I see in battles. I too am not going to buy it again. I hate to be one to deter others from participating in BP as it's not my intention but I know from speaking to a few people that it's a waste of time right now. Sure your getting more supplies than before but your also compensating for that by paying 1500 tankoins instead of 500. This hurts F2P players most but also people who invest in the game like myself who don't see a reason in taking part in challenges when it's just a trap to get you to buy stars.

Did you delete the messages on the first page of this thread? From what I remember you said you are set to completing it because you were on your lower level account easily destroying lower level players who probably can't even turn their turrets. Would you agree that this BP is not obtainable for most players? 

 

You said you spent 1.5 hours a day playing tanki which is a lot considering you were playing against lower levels and at legend rank or close it's harder to get to the highest score and win games.

The reason for this thread is to figure out if BP is obtainable for most people and we know that it isn't. From what I've gathered no casual player or someone who spends less than 2 hours a day can get to level 50 and completing the battle pass. I do want to see contradicting opinions to mine while im interested in this topic to see if there is any way the BP can be completed without having to invest a huge chunk of your day every day to get there. Everyone here who's posted has had to spend a large amount of time in the game to get it, including you. 

I don't encourage nonsensical debates but I do want people to offer their opinions and hopefully something can be done about it.
