invalid Premium Account Extra Slot

[LambSauce 1,894]

Premium Account users should get access to an extra module slot for the duration of the Premium being active. And if a user already has all module slots then a compensation in crystals or supplies could be a solution to that.

Technically this idea is a rework of Premium Accounts so I don’t think it’s asking for an increase in rewards. Also I am hesitant to take credit since it’s possible that something similar may have been suggested before.

Well the "compensation in crystals" is an increase in rewards.

Don't Premium accounts already get a bonus from crystals earned in battle?  Why do they need an in-game advantage?

[artc 1,119]

Sounds good for most people, however there are those who seem to always have premium. They basically get 5k tankoines for free then.

The benefits that Premium Accounts give currently are obsolete and mediocre.

As a F2P, it's not hard to get Premium here and there from Containers. In fact, I managed to amass a few weeks' worth just from Containers and Ultra Containers rewarded during the birthday celebrations.

Let's be honest though, most buyers will have already bought the fourth slot (or can afford it if they haven't) so I think this benefits the more casual buyers and F2P players more.

And if the devs want people to buy Premium Accounts from the Shop (which I infer barely anyone does) then the bonuses should be worthwhile imo.

More like giving back that 5 grands of Tankoins that dudes bought, or else they will feel cheated by Alternativa real hard.

Also, having additional module slot(s) seriously need drawback or else it is no better than what we have RN. Basically, if you are equipping more than 3 modules (with the idea you are suggesting), the potency of each module decreases (but you can have up to 6 module slots).

Right now the module percentage cap is 150% (200% if you have 4th module slot).

From your idea I would make it:

Fourth module slots (damage dealt from enemy tank will get rounded down like now): 37.5 /37.5 / 37.5 / 37.5

Fifth: 30/30/30/30/30

Or even sixth: 25/25/25/25/25/25

Or.... As long as you currently have Premium, the extra/bonus slot(s) stays open. Once the Premium expires, the slot(s) locks up/is closed until Premium is active again.

[thunderhunter123 741]

That's pretty nice to have, until we all get the 4th Module!

Players can spend more time in the game, obtaining shards and Containers, and try to get Premium.

How obsolete?

1) Premium gives 2x battle funds.  Not obsolete.

2) Premium gives 2x stars from battles.  With needing 1000 extra stars to complete Challenges, you don't think that is valuable?

An idea that adds an extra reward to the game subscription? Interesting.

Yes, that’s basically what the idea is. An extra slot for the duration of Premium being active.

Battle funds have been artificially increased/inflated for months now.

Seeing as it’s basically impossible for a F2P to complete the Challenge now, double stars isn’t that useful since you will still have to grind quite a lot to finish it anyway.

Let’s not forget that Premium is fairly easy to obtain from Containers, so it’s not like this would be a buyer-exclusive feature.

Battle funds might be "artificially" increased - but Premium still doubles that.

Premium would certainly give you a chance at Challenge.

Just don't see the justification for in-battle extras.  JMO.

What you mean we? only buyers will have 4th module. No one with common sense will play everyday for months or years to get some module that was supposed to be for free.

Until then, you're still waiting and saving Tankoins to get the 4th Module.

So we'll be using the Premium benefit while we do this.

I feel like Premium shouldn't benefit your gameplay.

In other words, there is no guidelines for you guys to follow or the guidelines are there but they are nothing more than a toothless tiger. You accept this one because you like it and you decline a lot of the suggestions out there because you hate or disagree with it. (I can easily gather a list of those if you think I'm bluffing)

 

You, whoever you are in real life, in the event that you have one, make the rules in here after all. And everyone else has no choice but to follow because who are we to mess with the almighty forum moderators. I remember I once asked you why you still decide to remain as a moderator in here despite you basically gain nothing here (no working experiences, no pay, no exposure, what so ever). Now I believe I have gotten my answer.

 

If giving premium players "an extra module slot" and "a compensation in crystals or supplies" for players who have already gotten the 4th slot are not "increase in rewards", then I don't know what are not.

 

Back to topic, I do agree that the current rewards from premium account are almost useless for mid to high rank players. Yet, I have zero hope on this will improve in the future, given how the Devs "improve" stuff in recent years.

Remember that "hey, we increased the reward of the battle pass by a lot, but we have tripled the price as well. It is still a bargain tho, so get it" thing?

Whoever doesn't have the 4th Module yet is the "we".

They can try to get and use Premium benefits.

For Legends it means they get 40k crystals 50% more often. So effectively another crystal boost.

You're not wrong, and I have to admit that there is some bias to the way we process ideas. Unfortunately, while the rules may appear "black and white", when it comes to actual ideas, it's very difficult to determine whether or not they violate certain I&S rules. With some suggestions we make exceptions because they seem unique and logical, even if they do break certain rules. I'm not fully happy about it, but this is the best system I could come up with for managing I&S.

The good news is that all new topics get reported to developers in a weekly report, regardless of what status we assign to them. And if you disagree about the status, you can always send me a PM or tag the curators in the topic and explain why you think the status should be changed.

There are A LOT OF bias, not only in the suggestion section but the entire moderation team in general. Also, what's the point of making those rules while you guys can choose whether or not to follow them? In case you forgot what you wrote in the rule section:

We do NOT accept suggestion topics about the following ideas :

There are no "mays", "mights"  or "buts". If this is not black and white, what are?

Speaking of logical, you ask and enforce people to follow the rules, while you fellow moderators constantly "making exceptions because they seem unique and logical". What kind of logic is that?

 

As for the last part, let's be honest, if you were part of the Dev team, will you even bother to read the post if it has a big red Declined on it, especially we know how lousy those Russians are?

Nope, your trying to water down a good idea aimed at F2P. Buyers get what they want when they want, so this idea gives F2P something to aim for by keeping their premium ongoing to benefit from the 4th slot.  May cost them a few bucks, but well worth it if it gives them a chance to catch up to buyers even though it's only a slim one.

Having 6 slots is just a dumb proposal, this idea has potential.
