Junkyard for sold tanks - GooglyBoogly - 2010-01-01

This suggestion is just like the title says. Add a secondary market for sold tanks that works like the junkyard. (buyer gets 25% off, seller gets 25% refund)
If an ally sells their heavy tank, you can buy one for 25% off, and your ally gets the other 25%.

This would also mean that players can switch between tanks without losing any gold (I.E airship -> heavy tank -> airship)
Ideally, the tank merchants would list which tanks are in stock, so you wouldn't have to go to a new vendor

I voted yes but it should involve some loss of money.

Sounds good.. yeah would be nice.

i thought of that a month ago but i didn't think you'll like it it's just a little stupid because most of the sold tanks are something like 1000-7000 gold and who will want to buy old tanks when he is getting money for better tanks


Re: Junkyard for sold tanks - GooglyBoogly - 2010-01-02

in the example above you would still lose 25% from the heavy tank (so 550*2.5 = 1325), assuming someone else doesn't buy the heavy

The cheaper tanks might be bought by a scout that wants to upgrade, I can certainly see scout -> demo.

If this were enabled you would also see players moving through the midrange tanks more readily (say heli -> thunder -> heavy), while someone else buys the thunder you just sold.
and in those alt mode late games you might see titan -> sky fortress -> titan swaps
