Good points.. especially about shooting over buildings.. it's actually worse than you discribe, I can't believe I didn't mention that. I've killed people thru rocks and buildngs.. you think you're in cover.. you are not.. unless you have a tiny bot and a very large cover it seems liek it's more concealment than cover I've killed a lot of people at the edge of buildings, I can't even see their bots but the edges seem very soft even with full concealment I still seem to land hits. A lot of maps have limited cover to start with it just pushes the game even deeper in "who has the best stats" most of the time I don't even try any strategy, I just charge a direct path and fire when in range.. skill means even less in this game.. i've got the bigger badder bot.. I win.. simple enough. I too wonder how may of them are bots this is one of the reasons I don't like DM half the players just sit there or won't even fire when you attack, maybe they just want to get the match over with? I do see repeat names which makes me think it's real players but I suppose the names could be from a pool as well.. I dunno, Can't prove it but I have the same suspicion as you do. another thing I hate is it will throw you in a match that's a minute into it.. this limits your score potential and I had a team match last night my team had already suffered 8 deaths by the time I was placed in the match.. which means I basicly got to take on a whole squad almost entirely by my self. and you can imagine how that went.. sad part? Still placed #1 on my squad by a healthy margin DM spawning sucks.. it either puts you all the way across the map by your self or it spawns 3 of you on top of each other.. and you kill someon eand they respawn right on top of you again.. sometimes I have to fight 5-6 people at the start of a match before I get a breather.

Yeah DM is very annoying. I always spawn with butch buckshot in the beginning because usually bots drop back to back on me. usually in about 1 in 6 matches, I encounter a real player with actual equipment. And yeah the minimal time required to join a game is ridiculous. Yesterday back to back, I joined a TDM match in the small city with 4 minutes left on the clock (this is how I know it was bots because normal players will kill each other quickly on this map) Next match, I spawn on the large map, and our teams is 3 minutes in the game with 8 kills. By the timer I get in range to kill someone, the last player is killed and match over.
Game has great potential but it definitely needs more work. I do like the free fire mechanics especially and the faster paced game-play.

I just had a interesting match.. either a glitch.. or someone using an invisibility hack
I had full health on my patrol 75k armor & 50k shield.
my bars just keep dropping keep dropping keep dropping.. no one is around.. I mean no one. No indication of which direction the damage is coming, no sounds.. nothing.. just slowly licking away health till dead.

I downloaded this game from Playstore last week and my Bitdefender AV app flagged it as a risk to my device and my private data,i emailed the developers to point this out and ask why it would be flagged as a risk but unfortunately I never got a reply back.
I haven't played the game as I wanted a response from the developer but to be honest after reading some of the comments here I will delete it and just keep playing the odd BoT and keep slogging with the new econ on War Robots.

Has anyone went past 31 days on daily rewards?
use to get silver, chests, and gold.. now there are no more "days" and it just get 10gold (20 if you watch an ad) which sucks because the chests are more profitable then that.

wow... without even a patch they made major changes today on this game.
energy weapons got a nerf in the form of rate of fire.. I lost over 3k dps instantly.. going from 11 to less than 8k Honestly I could see some sort of rebalance being in order they're powerful cause they ignore shields and don't have a traditional ammo clip.
On the other hand they cost 1200+ gold and aren't easy to get... well they did nothing to diminish the cost. Seems like short range rockets (lol orkans.. oh sorry wrong game, "wasp") is probably your best bang for the buck now. The energy weapons at least the ones I have phatoms.. have a reseveore now you can fire up to the first 9 shots at the old .5sec then drop to a .9sec fire rate.
Rockets on the other hand do a lot of damage and have a fire rate of 1.1 and a reservoir of 14
They also seem to jack up the bot speeds looks like most bots got a near doubling.. kinda wacky now.
The worse thing of all? Most matches are primarily bots on all sides at least at lv20 usually there aren't more than 3 players out of 6 on each side.
Well they did something because the last 6 matches i've had I've been paired up 3-4 humans vs me and bots or maybe 1 other living being. So even though I have some pretty good bots got my γbum-bumγ blown off because im the target.
Ya see the bots in this game are pathetic.. most matches prior to today I would just ignore the bots and walk right past them they might fire at you from time to time but are mostly just walking zombies.. the humans are the real threat.
So when they stick me 4 vs 1 or 4 vs 2 humans it sucks.. the bots are nothing but walking bags of silver.. lot of times I just use them as mobile cover.. it's THAT bad.

windcaster, I haven't played in a couple of days, and now I don't know if I want to! I have one bot outfitted purely with energy weapons, so if they nerfed the energy weapons, then I just wasted my gold (oh well, it was free anyway). I think the ranged weapons are all a joke anyway. Everyone just runs into brawling range anyway, and it's either the shotgun builds or the Wasp bots that dominate. My Watcher bot with 4 Wasps can kill a lot of bots before it gets taken down. The game had potential, but looks like they're messing with it. They need to fix the things that are truly wrong and not treat the game as they're own experimental playground.

I just tried a few games....my bot felt like it was on steroids....it's not a mech game anymore. It's Call of Duty with robot skins.

Sorry just goes to prove what an amazing game War Robots is. And that's the only reason we still play it, despite all the unbalance and pay to win and Mk2 madness and STDs.

Ya I just got my first bot out fitted with all energy weapons a few days ago.. lv12 pred with lv10 phantoms. that thing use to roast γbum-bumγ.. but now it feels lousy after they cut the fire rate. I've noticed if I use the predator which is only rated at 350 "power" I get loads more silver for the same amount of damage. I could do 3x the damage in my patrol and get half the money... makes no sense. so I started dumping everything into suping up my predator.. I racked up 30ml in silver.. 200-350k a match. I think they also nerfed the shield regen.. use to be able to survive all sorts of hell but not now.. oh well lol. I wish they would mark bot's with a C or COM or something. I noticed a lot of human players keep the default name and try to blend in with the bots. You gotta spot them by behavior and also bot types, stats, etc.. but that takes time with the weapon nerf and turbo bots it's time I don't have to sort out who's human.. the bots are so pathetic they can be ignored mostly. I don't think the player base is big enough to eliminate bots sadly

They also increased the ranges quite a bit. The sniper rifles got bumped from 400m to 800m, and the Botflys (Tulus) got bumped from 250m to 500m.

They did that a few days ago before the other changes, they doubled the ranges on everything, which honestly wasn't a bad thing imo.
Oh looks like they did away with the 1hr chests too, not sure the time period now but it's at least 4 hours.
They're starting to make Pix look good.
EDIT: NVM musta been a glitch chests are still on hour timer.

I don't think the player base is big enough to eliminate bots sadly The matches start after just a few seconds. If they made the code in the game such that it waited until there were at least 4 humans to a side it would improve matches greatly. Or they could hard code in that matches have an even number of humans on each side. And it should be trivial to make a bot attack Any enemy bot, especially the nearest one. Maybe I'll email their support person/bot. ?

Just as general information, tech support for Robot Warfare is at support@azurgames.com. I just sent them email about a glitch in the daily tasks screen.

What do you guys think of artillery? Too powerful? Just right? I think it should be kept as it is, but the cover should provide more... cover.

Artillery is way too powerful.
I see more human players at the upper tiers. People with names or players that have not changed their names yet but are clearly fielding premium robots and weapons . Or people that have not changed their names yet but are way too good or don't use default layouts on their robots.
This update has improved things.
No one is buying any of the shielded robots however. I have seen zero of them in the game so far.
Matchmaking is also quite quick these days.

Anyone still play this game? How does the economy compare to War Robots? And do you still find yourself facing a lot of AI bots?

Haven't played it since they release the Brit bot wannabees and were talking stealth. I wasn't looking for a War Robots clone that included the horse γdookieγ.

Damn you pixonic for making me do this after all those years lol... started playing Robot Warfare today... guess it's time for a change. unlocked 3 bots for now, have jumping one with 500m range rockets. Hard as hell to hit anything while jumping with manual aim, but fun. Spectre γfemale dogγes wouldn't like this bot hahaha Have a dash bot with 300m range rockets, cool cool. only one dash, that makes you wanna think about when to use it. And have a bot with sprint and huge auto canons, i call it Arnie It's fun to learn new stuff, also i have to get into a state of mind where i won't compare anything i see with War Robots to give this game a real chance.

I stopped playing the game when they introduced overpriced, overpowered most ugly looking ninja and samurai robots to the game. They are like dash robots with Britbot shielding.
