    Very nicely said i got 1 month deluxe just to try it and i felt it wasn't worth it.I regret wasting those 20 tcs all deluxe got me from playing hours everyday was a few more lvls and good lvl 4 to lvl 5 weapons that would disappear when the 1 month was up. Idk what i would do in terms of buying lifetime deluxe if i brought starter pack as ssl2 prob will only last a year or 2 before it stops getting updated or 3 comes out(unlikely)

    These are some very nice guidelines which i have strayed from a bit but still sorta follow.Nice one TankFrank :D

    Um we haven't really said that much about premium players and what we have said is all fact and we haven't insulted the premium players. Just voiced our opinions.

    I dont understand why would anyone want a lifetime deluxe.
    If you play now and then you can get to prestige 10 with deluxe in 1-2 years. If you buy deluxe for 20 coins every month (which is affordable for free player) you would have spend around the same amount of coins needed for lifetime by the time you are p10. (even possibly less if you play a lot)
    But that's not all because once you are p10, if you have lifetime deluxe, you are now stuck with 20 not so good weps which sabotage your chances for getting better weps FOREVER.
    Explain if I am wrong please

    That's why I said I'm not for deluxe, packs, tank upgrade, and now perks are best.

    sry, but I rly disagree; sure when ppl pay for a game, the creator (here kyle) is motivated to make it better with new features and so on, but if nobody would pay, the game will still exist, only without some features. so I indirectly can thank payers for the features, but not for the whole game :p

    When I was a free player I spent my tc on 2 seperate months of deluxe. I guess I'm a pay player now, but if you know me you'd know technically I'm not.

    I normally keep collecting then until I get enough for weapon packs, which is a milestone and have still not gotten any.

    people are just too impatient and get deluxe instead.

    I have to say that I think traction is as or more important than fuel initially. ;) The reason I say this is because as a player, I found myself severely limited by traction all the time at lower levels. If you can't climb up the hill, you can't use your fuel. :)

    Well I suppose I am. I get $5 Game stop gift cards via bing rewards. Since I pay on kongregate I get 50 kreds after I turn that in. I then use the 50 kreds and get around 50 tc each time. I've used this method to get almost all the packs I've wanted and max out my tank. I did thevswag bucks offer on kongregate for250 kreds and then bought the starter pack with it, thus spending then 300 they gave me via it on lifetime deluxe. So it pays playing on kongregate.

    I never spent a cent on this game.
    I got WP 3 first at like level 4, because I had left over Kongregate Kreds and did the tasks, and got 80. Reason I got WP 3 is because when I saw Bouquet and Mad Birds, my first thought was "HOLY SHIT, AWESOME! WHAT PACK IS THAT IN!?"
    Next came WP 4, my personally favorite pack, which took like 4 months with getting Tank Coins in boxes.
    Then about maybe 7 months later, I got RWP 2. Never regretted this since.
    Then WP 5 with more box coins, taking a little less somehow. I wanted it ever since it came out
    Then upgrades cuz I was sick of having no armor in DMs.
    Then Deluxe, because everyone was telling me I should get it, and I had over 20 Tank Coins, so I got it to shut them up. I literally always get over 20 Tank Coins from boxes before mine runs out, so I never go a day without it ._.
    Then WP 6, because I somehow had 47 Tank Coins, I got the coupon, and my friend KingKyd was saying I was lying, so I got it to shut him up. He was very... How should I put it... Angr.
    Now I'm just sitting around, getting Tank Coins whenever I can, keeping my deluxe active, hopefully getting the reinforced barrel.

    I have max stats across the board. I however did buy the starter pack, that is it though. Everything else I earned through the earn option, when it worked anyway. I have Retro 2, 1, 3, 5. I currently have 1 month of deluxe. So right now, I would want to save and get weapon pack 4 and 6. Unless 7 comes out and it is better than 6.

    That's at least 460 Tank Coins you saved up, how do you manage that? Even one Tank Coin a day is quite lucky. Not calling you a liar but I find it insane.

    It used to be 1 a day. Now it's just maybe 1 a week now. Or some off days where I just get about 4 in one day.
    Either way, I get a LOT of Tank Coins.

    Over time, I received about 2 coins from crates every 3 days. With the free coin every three days, for the last 2 months of play my coins have been similar to days played. :)
    Though I do have some luck, maybe 7 levels? which I think helps

    What packs do you own? And do you think you could reach in a few weeks, when do you guess you'd have that many?

    I own pack 6(coupon used) and have 48 tcs right now,if you are asking how long i think it will take me to get to 80 tank coins i would say a month if i am at least a little bit lucky.
