The new Black Friday "grid" game once again is designed to be a pure scam. It gives the impressions that the tiles are randomly placed on a grid and your chance of getting the best reward is the same as the lowest.
It isn't, it is just a terrible scam. The tiles are not actually placed but are simply changed based on a percentage chance to win. It pretends to lay out the cards but it changes them as you choose to the lower rewards from the high rewards.
The scamming of this company is so blatant. It is DESIGNED to try and cheat you into thinking one thing is happening but actually doing another thing.

Thanks Mail.ru for ruining the game, and for giving the old developers nothing but a kickstarter to work on. Screw pixonic screw ea screw all these bull「dookie」 microtransactions, loot boxes, and scams.

Always view these as "10Au for 12hrs premium". Nothing more.

Don't get invested in this game. Emotionally or financially. Once you bite Pixonic will only ease up on the line to insert a bigger hook. Get what fun you can milk off it then move on.
If it walks like a donkey and talks like a donkey, why get youre panties twisted that it's not a thoroughbred?

Panties are twisted because even though this game is going to the 「dookie」s, it is still the original war robots we like, just more of the getting pwned by kbots. It is still a master-crafted game, great gameplay, and it could have so much more potential, I mean this is why the game was targeted by mail.ru for monetization. it is still fun, just cover your face when getting pummeled by wallet warriors and enjoy the high quality gameplay that this game has. So in conclusion, it is not a donkey, it is a unicorn that got its horn sawed off by a mean new owner.

If the cards were sized relative to the odds the xxx Ag would be the size of a jumbo jet and the 3500 components the size of a nickel in the pocket of the co-pilot. |

Why are they trying to deceive us using this chance of win disguised as a sell mechanism? Why are they trying to twist
people arm around what their motivation? Why are they lying to our ears? Their business scam practice is the worst in history and they're not even trying to hide it.

Always view these as "10Au for 12hrs premium". Nothing more. First they rigged the drop rate so that premium is given less often and now it's only 6hrs. So consider it 10Au for maybe 6hrs premium. |

Understand, it is gambling. In gambling the HOUSE wins. (Period) If you can understand that then treat it as such. I like free/ cheap gold premium. I have saved over 200,000,000 silver since the last event buy using this and the wheel. No complaints here. I know I will not get the big prize. I use it for what it is. If I had a bunch of gold squirreled away then I would chase the big prizes but I don't and currently dash bots are not needed where I am.
My two copper pennies!

Nice reminder. The 6hrs premium is just for the 2 Storm-boards though, and seems Pix always assign a lower value to Storm. Not sure on the upcoming items, will be careful. |

Pixonic is no longer an ethical company and these gambling mechanisms have the worst value possible and have destroyed any shred of good will they had with us. You bet that other developers are watching all the mistakes Pixonic is making and working on their own robots games in order to move into this space and absorb the disgruntled players who are dissatisfied with being fleeced.

It is DESIGNED to try and cheat you into thinking one thing is happening but actually doing another thing. I have reported this to FB. You should too. The exact reason for report I have stated was something similar to: "The game has rigged gambling minigame. Player is given a choice of cards, and choosing a card costs. But what the chosen card has is actually selected only after player chooses it, so that player always gets one of the worst prices available. This is same as if a dealer changes the card to one of their choosing after a gambler has picked a card. Real money can be used to pay for playing this, and to get good prices, it's effectively required.This is misleading, a scam, possibly criminal fraud. Please stop it." And then of course provide a screenshot. |

Absolutely correct. It is a pure scam! I understood right away when I first opened the cards in first games. It is so so obvious that they sort the prizes in the background and the cards flop is nothing more than a visual effect.
We should really sue Pixo.

I will say that my 10 year old son saw this and immediately assumed that the cards were set (his brain didn't realize he was doing statistics, but it was) and that he had an equal probability of getting the max component card as he did the min silver card. I had to explain to him that they were doing this to trick him into spending his hard-earned gold. Convincing him of this was made slightly easier because he's seen for weeks now how Pix rigs the Black Market Roulette wheel. That was the only silver lining.
Maybe I should be thankful that Pix is demonstrating to my boy at an early (trusting) age that people/companies will trick you out of your money/resources if they can. Don't let them...be wary.

Since the last live talk and dropping an huge turd on all of us and they stop doing live talk . Every day they are posting news feed as if everything is normal to them. I guess they were using a tactic to piggy back ride the community and got what they wanted.
