event Summer eSports TankiFund 2024

Thank you. How do I buy boosters? I don't see any option to buy boosters.

All you need to do is wait. The Tanki Fund finishes on the 5th of July. You will receive the prizes depending on the number of levels the fund has reached/and whether or not you bought the Booster. The prizes will be distributed once the tankoin giveaway has been finished which happens usually within a week from the end of fund.

Oh and by the way, each booster costs 10 USD so I doubt it's worth the money...

Well its actually much closer to $11. You can find it in the shop.

How some players have already got Augments of Tankifund like Firebird Critical MIX before end of the Tankifund event?

The augment is not available to public, the only people who got this augment right now are people with press accounts which are given to the likes of TO Youtubers for the purpose of reviewing them, and making videos afaik.

Should I participate in this Tankifund? I want Armadillo (is it guaranteed?) on this account (I can buy the Tankoin pass if I need to).

If you want. Just don't expect it to reach very far.

Armadillo is reasonable level, nobody can give you a guarantee, but I think this checkpoint will be reached.

No wonder why this tanki fund failed, here's why :

1) Entry ticket from the minimal bundle got increased from 990 tankoins to 1390 tankoins

2) Useless rewards from level 1 to 20, because the status effect augment are negligible, not even close to good compared to pulsar

3) very low content, only 2 good augments and 2 skins, because the 3 others are boring status effect. Compared to old tanki funds, this one is terrible

The only advantage that this one has is : Good amount of epic container and legendary container

Nope. Here's the real reasons why we didn't get very far in this fund.

The blame should be split to two groups:

• AP for not only increasing the entry fee, but also having back to back events (team contracts, sakura blossom,  cosmonauts minigame, build&fight, etc) in the last few months.

• The players who has had at least 1400 tks at some point in the last few months but spent them on 2 or more of these back to back events. (And I'm pretty sure there's a good chunk of the player base who fall in this category.)

 

And this fund was much better than the 3 we've had previously.

30 tiers instead of 50.

500 of each supply is far more valuable than 11 mono paints.

Better diversity of augments rather than being just all pulsars.

I accept your opinion but the birthday tanki fund 2023, the winter major 2022 and the other one with swarm augment for scorpion, all three were better than this one

Can't debate on the winter 2022 one or any of the funds before that as I never partook in them. But I can say that the 2023 birthday fund was worse than this one. Only thing it really had going for it was that it was the cheaper fund.

The 2023 birthday fund gave out these items if completed:

•5 augments (all of which were pulsars).

•6 skins (3 legacys, 2 GT, 1 SE).

• 30 regular containers and 30 ultra containers.

• A nuclear energy supply, a module slot, Crisis and Hyperion drones, and an armadillo module.

 

This fund would've given out these items if completed:

• 500 of each supply + 40 nuclear energy.

• 5 augments (more variety).

• 6 skins (2 gt and 4 random from the keys).

• 30 regular keys, 65 rare keys, and 120 epic keys.

• A module slot, crisis drone, and armadillo module.

 

So if we looked past the price difference, this is easily the better fund between it and the 2023 birthday fund.

I wonder what level we need to reach for people to stop waiting and actually buy the fund. Funny how the ones waiting are the ones who complain about the fund not reaching enough levels for their liking, my man ofc it's not gonna reach high levels if all you and the others do is wait. The fund literally depends on the players, and this time you cant even argue that there is not enough players, sure 50 tiers was a lot but 30?? I might be way too optimistic but I'm willing to bet if all the people who are waiting right now bought even just the cheapest offer, we would jump 10+ mils in no time. The only thing waiting will achieve is ruin the fund, there are so many good rewards this time around, stop comparing to previous ones, that was then and this is what we have now, the community will never get anywhere if we keep doing this "But...but back theeenn it was.." NO! Just because someone wins the lottery once, should they go and complain every time they buy a ticket after that they should win again because they already won once before? XD
This is a group effort, stop being the one who just wants to take credit and instead go and actually participate.

This is one game I know where community type events fail :despairge:

As usual, lack of basic spender base, under 30k tkpass players you'd assume would be around but clearly far less than that.

I, myself will not buy a single booster since the only tier I cared for, 11 has been achieved, rest I don't really care for luckily, just counts as extras, but yeah often disappointing to continually see such free events take big L's. 

BUT, this fund has a big difference to the prior funds, this one has a minimum rank requirement, so many recruit accs till I think the rank you can play MM without bots do NOT have the ability to purchase and haul in TKfund goodies like before. This is likely where at least 1k entries are held I would assume.

Best fund ever !!! Thank you so much developers for hard work on new augment and well designed skins !

Yeah it's unfortunate and sad, especially now when after a long time, this fund was not only achievable but actually offered really good prizes for the cost. But at this point I am not even surprised. Tanki has bombed their own events by making them too frequent to extract as much cash as possible.

It's not so farfetched to think that lot of players are simply spent. If we look just at this year, we already had Team Contracts, Tanks in Space Minigame, Sakura Blossom, Build & Fight, now Summer Tanki Fund.... (I might even missed one, I really dont know, there is just too many).

All of these had 700 tankoins price tag on them, and given how common certain equipment is in battles from what I see, it is safe to say that especially the Team Contracts, Sakura Blossom and Build&Fight already extracted a fair share of tankoins from people's accounts. Lets also not forget how massive of a scam the last minigame was. It used to be free and f2p people could get a little bit of tankoins, supplies and containers from it, while still not bombing the economy. But not only they made it 700 tkns entry, on top of that, they removed daily currency from it, lowered the mission currency and tripled the price of steps being purchased for crystals.

It also does not help that this fund despite being much better than what we had in past got a whopping 40% increase in price for the lowest entry. I would also say that people are psychologically tired of Tanki Funds. Paying currency that is hard to get for event that has recent history of being mediocre at best, only to spent three weeks worrying whether others will push it far enough to get something decent from it.

We should not disregard the common Battle passes and Elite passes that too have a price tag on them. Not sure how much of an appeal these have on players, but if you are naive, or just want some skin that might appear in them, they will sharply cut your tankoins balance as well.

Level 25. Augments ? No thanks. I just want skins. Got almost 4000 tankoins saved. Was very lucky (I think 6-7 years ago) to be the winner of 8000 tankoins from the fund. Better save them for battle passes for skins that I don't have in garage. 1400 tankoins = 2 battle pass. So, level 25 for 2 skins.

You really need to stop blaming the wrong people and trying to force them to participate.

I have been saying the whole time the true reasons why the fund wont do well.

Even if the players who are holding out all decided to join in, we'd only get about 3-5 more tiers.

Yeah, they should never have held the team contracts, sakura blossom, and build&fight events in the way they did.

I would've just:

•scrapped team contracts,

•save build&fight for tankers day,

•made cosmonauts mini game free to participate and cheap like past minigames,

•kept sakura blossom for the months of February and march

•brought back ultra weekends for weeks without events

•brought back contests like quizzes, MOPs, "The Game", etc to keep things interesting

• made the tanki fund entry fee back down to 990 tks.

Doesn't say, but my recruit acc that I keep hoarding on, cannot enter and then I someone else told me of the rank requirment. Game can't have people who don't play profit as much anymore :Trollge:

I will continue to get every bp, for 600 tk it's a nice amount of epic keys and other small stuff even if I own the skin. The elite pass I will only get if the skin in it is something I don't own, or has a legendary key (of which I usually need to wait many patches for them to add GT skins into, the next set being the twins and mammoth which we will not reach in this fund)

Well, the main thing that stands is the game does not have enough players on the whole, let alone people who spend the minimum subscription level. (This I consider to be simply the TKpass at the minimum level, 5k tk over 30 days at a reasonable price, is pretty nice). If we broke it down, essentially we would only really need a maximum of 30'000 accounts who could buy the smallest 1390 bundle (this was 990 in the past and we still ended up failing so now we cope with the increase) to get all prizes. Ofc a few get the higher bundles so that would reduce the count a bit but 30'000 doesn't sound like a lot till you count each unique player and then it boils down to the reasons in the next clauses.

But in general, the other reasons we fail are mainly because people are waiting for the tkfund to reach a specific tier, I.e tier 20+ somewhere and there's a good set of that mentality which holds back the progress, I cannot confirm how many of these players exist.

Another reason is because there definitely are a few who are not interested in the augments/skins provided and generally know that due to the prior reason, they'd rather save TK for an event which may be better. However this take is such a gamble at times because as we have noticed, events are taking more and more tankoins lately. Remember the recent build and fight with microtktransactions for supplies, yeah that one.

And lastly, the final reason for an even lower fund is the minimum rank entry requirement.

I don't blame anyone for the loss in the funds but it is always disappointing to see what is an actual clean profitable event becoming a partial mediocre outcome, it is what it is. The unobtained augments and skins will be used in the next set of events as a result reducing our new content outlook potentially for a small period, I wonder?

=====

Let me also add, in the past the tkfunds only had 15 tiers and after players' constant nagging about more tiers, this is what we have come to, we went to a large 50 with a bunch of placeholder rewards and we struggled after the token of apology tk drowned out and now to a reduced 30 tiers which we are still immensely struggling. We reap what we sow, I'd be happy to simply have just 15 tier TKfunds, but many players are just too greedy (or want to be very efficient) and want a whole gold platter served.

I agree with this, but It's not THE main reason imo. The main reason is quite simply the price of the fund and the useless first 10 tiers, coupled with the fact players simply do not want to risk their cash/tankoins  for augments that we all know will get nerfed at some stage and a lot of players like myself with low ranked accounts, WO4 with only 3 protections, KNOW FOR A FACT that any containers received will yield a paltry amount of crystals compared to the amount needed to upgrade any equipment. The game as a whole is not player friendly to low rankers like myself. These are MY reasons I will never partake in any fund, even though I have the means to do so.

Prices being "nice" is of course relative for each player. The shop prices have went up quite a bit, so nice imo just does not cut it, which is why I will not buy it.

I no why would you say that because some players will see that as fair, but most will see it as far to much. $ 10.00 max would be reasonable and cut the days needed in half to get them, 30 is way to much and such a drag, very off putting in itself.

On this I concur. This is because there is no incentive as even a casual buyer who wants to do well in the game to risk tankoins for the underwhelming rewards before it.

Although imo the rewards improve by a big factor from T-18. As a low ranked player I need zillions of crystals, so the RARE containers are what "I" strive for, even though the 5000 cry we get should at least be 10,000. 

On 6/24/2024 at 5:24 AM, Akame said:

Well I'm one of them for the solid reasons I have gave so far. 

This fund does not inspire eager participation, simple as that. I leave the eagerness up to the brainwashed persistent buyers.

The sooner the devs reign in their greedy stubbornness and realise a few "SIMPLE" facts, then maybe more players will be ready to share the burden of these "events".

On 6/24/2024 at 5:24 AM, Akame said:

Remember the recent build and fight with microtktransactions for supplies, yeah that one

I vaguely remember it, because when I initially read about these events I very quickly sum it up and dismiss it even quicker as a cash grab and just throw the notion of entering such events down the pan, were it belongs with all the other crap in the game. I just wish more players had this attitude, because then we would see changes for the positive, instead of the constant changes in the negative.

Agree, maybe 20 would be a good compromise.

Possibly.

Change the word greed to selfish, which in my honest opinion are what most "ADULT" players are. I do not count the children on their no-life mobiles pretending to be good with their trashcan and auto aim. 

@Akame Thanks for responding.
