I suppose You have enough tankoins to purchase the bp ?

Not really, but if i see that OG augment i would definitely buy some, to get it.

Tankoins for slots???

[DestrotankAI9 1,513]

Sure we should be grateful for free stuff, but there is no point playing a game if you can't compete at all - you are wasting your time. If the disadvantage between paying players and free players becomes too great, then the free players will simply leave - as they should - because there is no point in playing if you literally have no chance in battle against certain players, that is simply not fun at all.

I think buyers currently have a strong advantage, but it hasn't reached that stage just yet. If we get things like 2nd hull augment slots though, that could tip things to the point of the advantage being far too great. So that is why such strong advantages for buyers should never be implemented, and players rightfully protest at such suggestions.

Tankoins (We get 18 from Weekly Containers weekly, 200 from the Free Tier from Challenges, and various amounts from Contests.) Developers were nice enough to give us some ways of obtaining Tankoins to buy one or two things as F2P players!)

Crystals (needed for upgrades and buying items ; we can get them from a lot of places)

Containers and Weekly Containers (from Missions, Shards, Contests, ...)

 

It will take a longer time for F2P players. If you want to get stronger faster in the game, you buy items so the company can get income for the game. So if you're a F2P player, you shouldn't be looking at the downsides to the game. Just have fun and be positive. It will help a lot!

Who is going to waste 2 years in this game just to reach 4000 Tankoins ? And 4000 stars for 100 Tankoins ? Big crap... It should have been 250-300 Tankoins.

If you want plyers to play more, we should get rewards daily (not talking about daily missions). Like I play today for 1 hour (1 Tankoin reward). I play tomorrow 1 hour (2 Tankoin reward), 3 day I play 1 hour (3 Tanokin), 4 day the same, 10 days the same. At 50 day, I play 1 hour (50 Tankoin). There are many games with daily attendance rewards.

If you miss a day (not playing for one hour), your time will resset from 0.

We shouldn't be complaining and asking to get stuff easier.

Developers need money to run the game, and everything they release is to either help with that, or it is just something nice that they do for players (like the Shards, but for mobile, developers get money for us watching advertisements for Shards.)

 

Also, Developers have given you, me, and everyone the resources needed, to at least be able to get everything:

Tankoins (We get 18 from Weekly Containers weekly, 200 from the Free Tier from Challenges, and various amounts from Contests.) Developers were nice enough to give us some ways of obtaining Tankoins to buy one or two things as F2P players!)

I agree with you,when i used to play before, simply getting 300 crystals in a battle was amazing experience and having 20k stored was something everyone could dream of,not to mention the fact supplies became obsolete,when i was wo5 i was happy for 100 each, now i have way more , which is something i wouldn't even imagine i would get

 

Same for cosmetics...

 

And before someone comes and has something to say,since it will happen then take your time to think about your response

100 (from silver tier) + 400 (from golden tier) + 500 (from skin container if you have all the skins) isn't 1000?

Legally speaking, it is not a fraud because you CAN get 1k. However, it is obvious that the statement is written in a way to convince/mislead/give people an impression that by completing the challenge in both tiers you WILL get 1k.

...

In my opinion the only thing we, all players, can get for free are the Containers by Shards. And I'm not saying we should or should not get free things, I'm just clarifying.

Containers from Daily and Weekly Missions are not free because we have to spend time and effort to complete them, and if we are not Legends we are also paying with fast rank-ups.

Some events we do get more free stuff, like during the Tanki Birthday celebrations.

I like the Shard Containers, mostly because I like opening containers where from time to time I get nice things, and it helps me save crystals to do some upgrades, but I really don't see the point because I know the moment I play more frequently my account will rank-up faster and it will weaken again and it won't be good enough to fight Legends.

And again, we all can get the Shard Containers, not just non-buyers, and because we all get them there's no shorthening of the gap between buyers and non-buyers, no special help, no special benefit.

Now, I'm not saying there shouldn't be a gap, after all Tanki is primarily a private company that exists to make money for it's owners and they can do with their company and their product whatever they want. All I'm doing here apart from the clarification to maybe help the debate is share my point of view as a now very casual player that likes Shard Containers.

I don't know what I would've done without the Shard Containers, because I really didn't like the 4, 6, 8X... sorry I lost count, EXP.

You cant be serious what you just said, 18 tankoins from weekly wow that is a LOT i should thank developers for it that we need play for months to get something useful? F2P players need to complain because they dont care about us.. all they care about is to release new alts for buyers to oneshoot us without effort. 

You are playing a free game and all free games have pay to win mechanics, if you hate developers for adding P2W "stuff" and rarely F2P updates then you shouldn't be playing free games and complaining, period.

Well, till im "playing" waiting for them to finally fix html5 physics, i will be complaining because they dont deserve anything else for what they are doing :)

"don't deserve anything else" not sure what you mean there but you are wasting your time here if you only come to complain, go buy yourself a game on steam and don't worry about P2W anymore.

[Bydo 20,119]

not sure why you have the Star battle pass at a crazy price when in theory, you can get the pass cheaper .

see if you buy just the pass for 1500 then in shop special items you can pick up 1 day premium pass for only 79 tankions ,( giving players 1 day usage when they have time to battle during the two weeks star event.

if you buy it the other way you then have to pay 1800 / plus 3 day pass - but you have to use the premium pass all with in the 3 days you purchased the bundle. along with this it ends up costing you more tankions in the end --

so why pay for more when your the ones loosing tankions...( or cash)

Cool idea of yours. You should make an organized version of this Idea, and put it in the I&S section of the Forum, so that other Helpers and players can see and discuss this topic.

In short, Tanki Online went from a free Demo game from the way past, to a paying game in this present time.

We play for free and get the rewards it offers, or we can pay to speed up our progress.

This is very easy to understand for most players because we play countless Phone games with In-App Purchases, etc.

As F2P players, it will take a longer time, but it is what it is. TO can make changes if they want to, but we should keep adapting to whatever they are doing. I have kept this positive and happy mindset with my account, and I have a good GS tank now! (Don't forget to save your Crystals, ... and use them during Sales!)

It's a game after all, right? Plus, we're not going to be playing forever, right? Soon, we'll stop playing, do school work and college more and more, work, and look back on this as a memory.

 

The Augments, ... that Developers release are first balanced, tested, and changed up before releasing into the game.

They do feel strong at first, but with proper protection and planning, we can handle it. Plus, Developers make balance changes as we go forth playing.

It probably has to become Mk7 before you can continue Micro-Upgrading.

 

You were just unlucky when this update came out. You weren't able to MU the last Mk6. I know it makes us angry.

But now you can do upgrading more freely. Just keep playing regularly and you can accumulate more Crystals in no time.

F2P players can get 5000 Crystals daily from Missions and battles. Don't forget Containers and Weekly Containers. The Challenge gives Crystals too! You can also join in on Contests. They give a larger amount of Crystals.

They did what would make playing easier. You think this was a bad update, but new players find it cool to have just one button to either upgrade or micro-upgrade at their rank.

Depends on what you want:

Augments are 4990 Tankoins. But Paints are around 500 Tankoins.

If you do the Challenges, you get 200 each month. With 18 Tankoins a week from Weekly Containers, you get 3336 Tankoins a year!

In around 1.65 years, as a F2P player, saying it again "as a Free to Play Player", you can get an Augment and a Paint for the prices listed!

No worries! I'm not misty-eyed, I'm simply efficient and fulfilled.

I save Crystals (save and use them for 50% sales)

Tankoins (use during big sales to maximize buying the Paints that cost 10 Tankoins each and can give you other, better drops from Containers, etc.)

Containers (save and use after buying Paints, buying Augments, and other items from Containers before opening them.)

Weekly Containers (wait until you're the highest rank such as Legend to get the highest rewards.)

Many of these types of games have some element of Pay for advantages.

But TO has swung the pendulum way too far to the P2W side.

The game needs buyers ... BUT ... without a large base of F2P tankers, MatchMaker won't work.  And many players are leaving the game.  Look at player base compared to 3 years ago.  It's the reason why Lt. Colonels are playing Legends.

Fortnite is free to play, offers no pay to win advantages, and has a million dollar+ prize pool for players every year.

Not only do you not need to pay the developers, you can actually earn a lot of money from it if you're good at the game. 

So not "all free games have pay to win mechanics". Allowing advertising and selling cosmetics is what the best developers choose to finance their games.

Fortnite was just an example, you can take PUBG if you dont like fortnite. Contrary to fortnite, pubg is a realistic battle royale, and still it makes millions of dollars on a weekly basis.

[LONDON.ENGLAND 302]

The thing is, would tanki have survived this long if the main income came from cosmetics and not an intake advantage? If they went down the fortnite route and pushed skins and only shot colour effects, would people have actually spent enough for the company to last this long?

How To Mislead People to make Developpers Seem Nice

I. The bad updates

1) find the bad update

a. Always tell what is bad about the update but never forget to tell the good thing about it too. Ex: 5k tankoins for 4th slot is alot and exclusif to buyers only BUT it can prevent everyone to have it and it will  accessible to anyone that complete challenge and daily mission for 2 years without a break.

2) It is just a game. 

a. Try to convince people that it is just a game so either they have to have fun on it or just leave it, try to ignore the fact that people may once LOVED this game and now, it breaks their heart to see it dying slowly because of poor marketing management and bad updates.

b. Developers have to get money to run the game and to feed themselves.

If the people aren't convinced now, try to hurt their feelings and let them know that developers need money otherwise Tanki online would not be there. If they talk about that tanki fund that hit 9M tankoins = 150k dollars for just one bundle, tell them that servers that can hold 13k people at the best moment of the day are expensives to run. 

 

Now, there should not be anymore people left with those magnificient arguments, if there are, tell them to see this game as a memory.
