Integrating a Battle Tanks Bank!

[RikonVan]

My Idea is to integrate a Battle Tanks Bank. In my version(not updated until now) I integrated such a system: By Typing in "-bank", a dialog field opens in which you are able to deposit some of your money to earn interest with it(all 5 minutes). This increases a tactical ability for the players and it's very easy to integrate it

[Bobguydude]

Maybe make it so that you get the money back at 5 minutes with interest, but you can't take it back before then? That would be pretty interesting. It would definitely add some new tactics.

[DerSatan]

although it might be interesting, saving is such s a strong strategy anway. i wouldn't like to have this included.

[RikonVan]

i scripted that it costs money to withdraw money from the bank so that the player has to play tactically well... so if you dont like this then its only in my version which is ok

[Gammagulp]

Sounds like you are able to deposit huge money at 4:59 and withdraw it with a little payment at 5:01, which could be lower than the interest money

[RikonVan]

Hmm if you want to test the system try out my map: http://www.hiveworkshop.com/forums/resou...u=RikonVan it works really well!

maybe lil interest ever 10 sec so no1 can save short before interest timer

[SCorpA1]

or maybe if you deposit 2000 gold you get 1 more gold income or something like this

[Bhangbhangduc]

maybe lil interest ever 10 sec so no1 can save short before interest timer

Why stop there? Why not make it every second, to remove any posibility of abuse?

[RikonVan]

thx to your replys i will do what i can do

[Althend]

It would make the imba strategy "saving for demon" more imba...

[SirJoghurt]

i want to play BattleTanks, not BattleBanks :mrgreen:

...so no need for something like this ^^

[RikonVan]

what do you mean with imba strategy "saving for demon"?

[SCorpA1]

buy tank+weapon with the start monexy and then buy no weapons and save your money for a demon tank

[TKF]

It's always the best tactic to save for bigger tanks in Battle Tanks.


Better tanks is better than hulls
Hulls are better than weapons
Special items are often in some situations better than weapons
Weapons


So I'm sure a bank would make more players use demon tank in the long run.

I am too against a Battle Tanks Bank, because

1) it would need quit a lot of new versions just to balance the Btank Bank
2) every new player will be complettly confused (at least of the fact that with the new Tip system - noobs have allready enough problems to learn something)
3) I too believe it will just be abused for saving tactics.

But well, I think its at least an idea worth arguing and rather creativ. I for my opinion hope that a battle tanks Bank won't be included.

[RikonVan]

I balanced the System with the Idea to integrate a new tank("Bank Bot") who is the only tank to use the bank. It costs 1250, has nearly the powers of the small tank but can use the bank. If you want to save for big guys you have to start with 250 money less than the other players or you have to sell your tank to use the system so I think it's balanced with this, and I made the bank a building so you have to go into a circle of might infront of the building to use the bank system so you can prevent players from using the bank by your own.

this could work. like, longer u have money in "bank" u get more interest. some few %'s.
But this shud b an chooseable option, or shud b tested (in the "real" BTanks).

But then there is the AI's, who can "cheat" !? Shud maybe not b able fro them.. since finance way, AI's are... um .. better savers

[GooglyBoogly]

If this were added to the game it should be an optional extra.
it would also make suidide builds much stronger as they could bank any additional cash while waiting for their enemies to upgrade hulls/tanks

...Hulls are better than weapons

this is not always true.
In the early/midgame weapons are stronger because they provide additional income and Xp - which hulls don't.
