warrobots.com/en/posts/275Pilots, During the last couple of months, we were changing War Robots based on your feedback. We opened the new Workshop, separated the modes and rebalanced controversial robots and weapons. Unfortunately, not all went smoothly. We underestimated the impact of the new Workshop on the game's economy. Next week, we're introducing the following changes: The new equipment will appear in the Workshop not in a month (as we promised), but in two months after its release. Starting October 2, time of components production will increase (full sheet bellow) These changes ARE NOT linked to the 4.3 balance update. However, we have to make them now to stabilize the economy. The Workshop will retain the old numbers for a few more days. The changes will take effect on October 2, 9 AM UTC. (if you launch the production right before this happens, it will be finished under old conditions) docs.google.com/spreadsheets/d/e/2PACX-1vSmTaIhbdZm787E7suh8NPGw8JwvJWTTlZUoKezT0fFJ9PyNQs6EtbK4fvCGiqkqm2iOXjA3qmk3jgV/pubhtml?gid=0&single=truebigg changes again, harder to get everything now

I suspect you are right. It's funny how group-think works in a board room. Also, end-stage for a game they are just going to milk it and run it into the ground. Also, games seem terrible right now. Just a bunch of Spectre/Hydras. Nobody going for center. It seems like the worst it has ever been for players. |

Yes - way too logical. You need to think more Pixonically (new entry to the Oxford English Dictionary meaning anotonym of logically), then you will understand |

Wow, I feel so silly. I was actually starting to somewhat enjoy the game again. I even purchased 30 Day Premium to get some silver. Now they change AGAIN so that it will take forever and a day just to get one of the way too many weapons and bots available. Why did I fall for their tactics? I should have known better.

We are sorry to hear your disappointment with our new monetization policy changes.
We strive to give all our pilots the best log-sawing experience possible, hard and fast and no "thank you that was amazing" afterward.
Our sawing logs on your back is actually good for all involved in the long run.
Sorry, no reach-arounds, no flowers, no kisses, no chocolates, no dinner, and no "I love you cards", just log-sawing.
So bend over, you'll love these new changes.
Sincerely, Team Pixonic |

As soon as people posted the pics right after 4.3 hit (it showed the new stuff early) I figured this was coming. I just figured it would be part of 4.4

Holy crap!! These times aren't just going up, they're going exponential!!! Some stuff is going up by a factor of 5. Here's an abbreviated list cut and pasted... (not all weps and bots are here, go to the article for all of them)  |

I'll just keep doing what I've always done, working with what I have while those shiny new toys get farther & farther away.

This makes me mad too! However, in reality there is no way, at least for me, to upgrade equipment fast enough to use it. So in reality the increased time to obtain it really won’t make much of a difference to my hanger. What I hope, and I know I am in La La Land, is that Pixo reduces upgrade times in 4.4 to compensate. Not holding my breath though.

I got caught up in the frenzy and accelerated a few items and now will hit Weyland and bulwark before the change.
After blowing a few thousand gold to do it I remembered it will be at least a few more months before I will be ready to start on either of them...
Fact is this is more annoying than actually a major game changer. It is still way faster than before and with new economy there is no way to quickly level all the new stuff you can get.
Itâ??s just another massive ?fluffernutter? up by pixo in terms of player relations. If they came out with these times at first no one would have complained at all.
Just another piece of evidence (if anyone really needs anymore) that these guys are ?fluffernutter?ing morons.
EDIT: I didnât even bother reading the times in the table because I just donât care enough. Bottom link still stands. pixo are 「fluffernutter」ing morons

Every change they make reduces their income. Consumer confidence must not be a koncept in Russian economics. "We make it, you buy it, you like it, we reduce quality, you still buy it, no matter what" doesn't really fly on global market. They treat their consumers as numbers, and aren't the slightest bit sneaky about that part, then expect money to pour in the moment they 「fluffernutter」 something further, or undo some past 「fluffernutter」ery.
The people dont't trust PIX, however Pix isn't thinking about the people, just their wallets.

I don't feel like this change matters that much. I already have more equipment than I can upgrade. I still have Falcon, Exodus, and Dragoon all waiting to be upgraded. So really, the component times are now more inline with the upgrade times.

So, rather than fix their economy, Pixonic is extending component times so we spend Ag slower? Brilliant! (Sarcasm)

I used to say that nothing amazes me with Pixonic anymore (pronounced Pis(s)onit). However, they have outdone themselves this time. With logic rivalling Reverse Polish Notation (ok math majors of yesteryear... get it?) I am beside myself laughing hysterically as these guys hammer the nails in their own coffin...
I am so glad that I finished my Pursuer and am close enough that I can literally afford to finish off what weapons I DO want before this next shoe falls. My hat is off to those .... stalwart financial analysts (substitute an I for the Y) for the free entertainment. These guys could teach a University course on how NOT to do business...

Wait till they announce they're increase the silver cost requirements too. I'm surprised they didn't leave an out in their typically vague remarks.
But as others have said, I built one item and haven't used the WS for a month except for the Destrier deals. (which I bet gets massively increased, say to a week ea.)
Btw? Do any of you have any silver left?

(Sarcasm) No they did it so you could upgrade stuff without the burden of extra equipment lying around now it takes a month to make as well as a month to level...well that's what I'm telling myself lol Sad thing is on the account I have been playing my WS is lvl 14 that allows me to have 3 slots and only build 100 components for Mercury. When the change comes a max WS will build them slower than I am now. |

When the change comes a max WS will build them slower than I am now. Yeah. I have no idea how I’m going to progress any more. It will be impossible to get new gear and get it updated in a reasonable amount of time and expense. Not unless Pixonic is planning an dramatically increasing the amount of gold available to us all. |

getting stuff is still faster then Pre-WS2 for me, just like when AU was taken from Royale this has little impact on the way i play. have enough New WS2 toys I'll be busy upgrading them to level 10 till December.
now i don't Have to worry about tons of new Spider Bots or Specs showing up.
but yes it was a $hitty move again on Pix/Mail.ru part. they should have give a in Game notice to all Players and at least a week till they up Acquisition time and maybe Ag Cost.(i'am thinking AG cost will increase)
at the End of the Day Should We be suprised this Happened?

watch them double the cost and triple the time
low key I kind of agree with the increased time on component time, as long as they leave the cost the same, since I have been making item after item with daily au I get for free without even playing and having a lot of new torys is fun and all until you realise you have to upgrade it....
however I think the max time for each component order to not be longer than like 3 days cause damn that a long time
