It's most definitely not going to be a heavy hull, as we already have had heavy hulls over the past few BPs.

Next hull is likely going to be crusader.

There´s a pattern I think @Compasser first found out about. The turrets go one after another as they are in the garage. For hulls there´s a similiar pattern apparently.

So based on the pattern what’s the augment going to be in the Challenge after this one?

[NikmanGT 4,362]

Who cares about augments, it's skin time now !

[numericable 2,375]

I hope next skins to be hornet legacy or firebird demonic for non HD skins. For HD, i hope to see Paladin XT.

Gauss EMP or AP. I really hope for AP but I think EMP is more probable as we have AP aug this week.

I almost forgot about Old fire Demonic. Maybe that can be made available to the players after being in the blackout for some recent while.

I believe some Hovering hull skins or Tesla skin should be given in the next as they are currently very hard to get.

also notice they removed weekly containers for challenge

They are cutting back on everything that helps you maintain your garage.

A potential 40,000 cry (if you bought the pass) is way better than the useless containers they have replaced them with, they know this only to well, which is why they have done it.

Even 1 weekly was probably much better than 4 containers combined. 

@NikmanGT has tried to cover this fact up by joking about it, what a surprise.

Doesn't really look like he's hiding anything. I think he's just joking about it just to joke about it.

Alright so I´ve done some math (correct me if I´ve made a mistake somewhere)

You indeed gain less crystals, supplies and batteries from the new challenge when buying the battle pass, what is interesting though is that you get considerably more repair kits and F2P players also get more batteries then before. Therefore you could say the difference between F2P and buyers gets a bit smaller.

Now for the gold tier the thing is, many people were requesting to get the skins back and I think for those it is very well worth those ´´lost´´ crystals (I would count myself in this group aswell).

In light of the aforementioned facts, I´d say this is quite a sensible update, providing F2P´s more of the most important resources (repairs, batteries), while giving buyers (and those who saved up) the long requested premium skins. I think it makes the Challenge much more interesting and adds something to look forward to.

A call back to the OG challenges with a random Skin each BP. Nice Devs are finally learning how to sell their product. 

Devs, do you really think your Skins are worth 30,000 Tankoins??? Are you that impressed with your work? Half of your Skins are not in HD. With the Skin Container, you don't even get to choose what Skin you get.

Now back to Challenge talk.

If Tesla XT or Hammer XT appears in the bp, it's a wrap. I'm buying it.

Haven't bought a pass since the Skin Container was removed. Nuclear Energies were one of the worst things added to the game.

They also contained no premium augments and at some point their cost was 1500tks IIRC. Not to say they were worse, just That I can imagine there would always be some players complaining if any of the older versions got brought back (even though I´d love it).

They are not worth 30k, it is just a way to create perceived value. It is not expected anyone would actually buy them and for those who do, they probably don´t care about money that much, so they atleast fund the game this way I guess.

I heard that at some point they were so cheap that you could buy them by saving for like a week without buying tks - is that true?

I don't remember exactly, but it possible. Though it didn't last for long I guess .

The decrease in Batteries is BY FAR the worst thing about the new Challenges.

I happily trade those for a skin 

 

[Eon 111]

the four weekly containers and batteries gone kind of sucks with our crystal income decreasing with each update.  But with predefined skins coming back might be worth it for a lot of people. (myself included)

@frederik123456 Changes nothing. The developers are systematically reducing items that help players out. Skins do not help you in battle and are therefore meaningless unless you have a maxed out everything garage.

You can sugar coat as much as you want concerning the developers, changes nothing, they are still doing their very best to fleece players as much as they can in the attempt to convert as many as they can to spend cash, no matter how small that expenditure may be. The developers true colours have been on display for a long time now and they have proven beyond any doubt that they do not care about their player base.

the leagcy skin looks cool but as long as i have 2 empty tiers in this challenge i won't grind for it 

also removing batteries is also bad decision

skin container

Its not a skin container, its a defined skin which is not worth for people that already has the skin.

Silver tier actually gets more batteries than before, so good for F2P´s, but yeah, gold tier got the batteries reduced...

[numericable 2,375]

I hope instead of giving a defined skin, they would atleast put old skin container inside (the one that give non-HD skins) at best, they can put the newest version of skin containers. What i know is that i would purchase all BP to complete my collection of skins if they do it instead of a defined skins that i already have.

Err on typing yes for the people who have it sucks I would rather have skin containers as well
