Because it's actually a close competition between Stepbrothers and Bulls. I am waiting for tomorrow only to watch the livestream to see who takes victory because between those 2 teams, predicting anything beforehand won't do much good.

Also about the rewards, I believe those 6 containers aren't as golden as the current rewards of the funds.

There just isn't enough incentive for buyers to buy the silver/gold bundles, it seems strange that the developers released other special offers on the Ultra weekend as well as Silver/Gold (the 250 Ultras pack), meaning players can get the new Twins augment without contributing to the fund - if they hadn't done that the fund would surely be a bit higher. Releasing bundles alongside silver and gold was really the death knell to any chance of the fund going super high, as big buys on the weekends to get the new augment(s) was really the only chance. Or maybe, the devs don't want the fund to go that high? Who knows.

Another thing which actually I haven't seen mentioned, is that unlike last time the main bundles (Silver and Gold) only add around HALF the tankoins to the fund which they cost to buy! This really is a very huge factor, because last time ALL tankoins spent on the bundles went into the fund, on a 1:1 ratio - this time it is 1:2 for those bundles. So in practice what that means is that if we got a 10 million tankoin fund the last time (was that how much we got? I forgot, something like that), then to get a 10 million tankoin fund this time with silver/gold bundles - players would have to spend the same amount as would have reached a 20 MILLION fund the last time. And to reach 15 million on silver/gold bundles this time, might be the equivalent of 30 million the last time. Now when you look at it like that, how likely is that to happen? Not very, unless there is a very strong incentive for buyers - which there is not. They already have 4th module/Crisis/Armadillo, and the Twins augments so far don't seem that appealing, and only one is being released per week AND there are other ultra container packs available on weekends which don't add to the fund.
 

Now saying that, my calculation above doesn't tell the full story, of course - since the Bronze pack does add tankoins on a 1:1 basis (even though gold and silver do not). Also, with the guaranteed rewards for each milestone reach (such as the fourth module at 2 million), non-buyers are more likely to buy in. However, tankoins that non-buyers spend are not "real" tankoins (i.e. they didn't cost money to obtain), which the developers will surely be factoring in here, and which might be why silver/gold don't add all tankoins spent to the fund. The Bronze packs will only add a limited amount to the fund, since they are only 1000 tankoins and only one can be bought per account - so we really needed those silver/gold bundle buys to get high. Those bundles do only add around half of the tankoins spent to the fund, so all things considered, I would be fairly sure that it works out that players need to spend more to raise the fund to the same level as it was at last time - let alone to go higher.

So as might have been expected, and as it looks now - we can probably expect to reach the 15 Ultra Containers tier. Higher than that would be very lucky, and if we get any skin containers we will be extremely lucky indeed. Possibly, but unlikely it seems.

Also, why would buyers spend ton of tankoins for crisis when just, one week before the event, crisis was given through the special mini game at level 2? They knew no one would try to get crisis from this.

I have few questions:

1. Apart from the prizes, all participants are guaranteed to get some tankoins at the end, right? 

2. Also, if we manage to get 2 times the "protection module slot +1" how would this work?

3. Is there any way to check if we take part at this giveaway; I mean if we just buy any bundle, we're automatically winners?

 

Just wanted to make sure :) Have a good one!

1. No, if you get selected, chance rate are 1/8

2. 4 slots are the limit, no compensation for extra slot

3. You bought bronze or silver or gold, you are automatically taking part in the giveaway.

1. Actually no, it's the opposite. You are guaranteed all the prizes of the levels the fund reaches, but in the case of tankoins, you can only win them if your name is in the giveaway list meaning if you won the giveaway you will win Tankoins.

2. This means that any unlocked protection slot will be opened. Let's say if you have 3 slots already unlocked, then "+1 Protection slot" opens up your 4th Protection slot, but if you had only 2 slots opened at first, then  "+1 Protection Slot" means your 3rd slot will be opened, but 4th one will remain intact, meaning any next Protection slot will be unlocked. For +1 Protection Slot , 2 times, then your nearest 2 slots in order will be unlocked.

3. Actually if you buy a Gold or maybe a Bronze bundle, they both can be only bought once, so if you bought any of these, next time you refresh the shop, you won't see those 2 bundles again if you bought them. And for the Silver bundle, you can buy it as number of times if you want, but if you wanted to check if you bought the  Silver bundle, check for 50 UltraContainers or the 4 Clan Paints in your garage. 

Note: If you bought the bundle, that doesn't mean you are winner already,  it means your name is on the giveaway list, and you have a chance to win loads of tankoins if you get selected.

Also, the more number of time you bought the bundle, more chances you have to win the giveaway.

Good Luck ^^ ?

One additional Module slot was enough, do we really need 3?

The devs in their infinite greed are targeting the vey low ranks who only have 1 protection, maybe 2 in their garage.

This fund is a farce and was doomed to failure because of the items on offer. Whether this was a deliberate ploy by the devs are a miscalculation we will never no.

Just remember, the devs NEVER do anything of note for the players, not unless it benefits them financially.

15 million tankoins ? better chance of MM actually becoming balanced than that happening.

And still you lot never learn, which is very sad.

The 4th module alone for 990 tk is still good (and I hope for the sake of those who didn't get it this time, that such an offer will appear again), plus also the extra rewards such as 15 containers + 15 ultras (I think we will manage to get the Ultras at least). Certainly, it is disappointing not to get to the higher tiers - it seems strange that the developers decided to put out other bundles on the weekend such as the 250 Ultras pack last weekend, and also it seems they did not calculate correctly the incentives for buyers to buy into the fund. Some kind of alternative reward should be available for those who already have 4 slots or Armadillo/Crisis - then we might see more buys. The advertising also was not great, we were not told about the contents of the skin containers (that they include more skins than normal AND almost 4000 tk if you already have all skins), until the V-LOG 1 week into the fund. This information should have been made clear at the start, which might have given a small extra incentive to buyers.

But in fact, quite simply the silver/gold bundles should have been more attractive - that is the main issue. They should have given more chance to win tankoins, and perhaps offered better rewards - the fact that bronze gives more chance per tankoins spent than silver/gold is awkward, and un-necessary - because most of those who buy bronze are doing it for the fourth module slot, and do not care as much for the tankoin draw. Bigger buyers on the other hand, getting silver/gold, might have been more keen to contribute if they had better odds of winning the tankoin draw.

Unless the developers intended for the fund not to go that high, it does seem like they have miscalculated. The offer here is still great however - 4th module slot for 990 tankoins plus a few extras is very good. For those that already had the 4th slot though, it has to be said that this doesn't really offer a lot.

As I said before, I only cared for the 4th slot, since 1k TKS is a great offer. I don't care for anything else. 

If someone actually bought a bundle hoping to receive Crisis or Armadillo, than that was a foolish move to say the least.

I've done the same

I have five accounts, and play four like main accounts and one as an alt

I got the 4th slot for the four mains when most not-Russian players could still buy a tankoin pass for 299 RUB, but I saved the TK on the alt because I didn't need the 4th slot immediately

So I now can get the 4th slot for the alt with 4000+ TK to spend on other things, which is nice

I might have used my last TK on the other accounts to buy the bronze bundle for some skin containers, but that's a decision I won't have to make now

Would have been nice to get the fund that big, but it was always unlikely because the players that could get it that high probably have Crisis etc. and I doubt the payout from the fund would have been as big as the payouts some players got from the Halloween game

Thanks for the info, I didn't quite understand how it would work because I don't have full command of the English language. Some things go unnoticed.
