You probably know my honor points silver farming post war-robots-forum.freeforums.net/thread/29420/honor-points-silver-farmingSo I'm very sensitive to the numbers and found out this just now. Pix changed the values, you can go check in game  Clearly the token earning is nerfed, then with a longer cycle we get boosters less often as well. The silver seems increased, but since the required HP is more, it is actually nerfed.  Old  New In conclusion, Pix thinks we are benefiting from HPs too much and silently nerfed a bit. It's nowhere near catastrophic like the New Econ, but still a nerf is a nerf, it means pix is quietly observing honor points user data and we never know how much more nerf will be on the way. |

Yep, I just noticed too. They are chipping away at payouts all the time. Lots of little chips add up to be a lot.

Aha... after payout reduction, token cost increase, au renewal and daily item count decrease that's their next shot at nerfing Royale: reducing token income

You know they'll nerf it eventually. Just Grind your silver out and hold on to it. |

They say you cant cook a frog alive if you just throw her to boiling water cuz she will jump out, but if you put her in cold water and slowly raise the temperature it can be done. See the analogy ?

Well what a surprise... We all must be a bunch of masochists with nothing better to do in our lives if we are willing to put up with this crap and still willingly play this game.

Below is the excerpt from their post.
"For a similar reason, we also pushed further the first Battle Reward by increasing Honor requirements (while, of course, proportionally increasing payouts) and removed Tokens and Black Market keys from Private-league chests that come before Black Market and War Robots Royale introduction at their respective levels."

Yep, I just noticed too. They are chipping away at payouts all the time. Lots of little chips add up to be a lot. yup..we spend money for premium and this how they ?fluffernutter? us over.. after my premium end im done spending money. Pix’s formula is very predictable.
1. Put the squeeze on
2. Provide an offer costing RM that gets players back to where they were before (a seemingly bargain offer)
A. If players buy in sufficient quantities than nerf again.
B. If players don’t buy into the new scheme than gradually revert the change until things get back to near previous stage.
I reckon more than the expected number of people bought premium and hence they are nerfing general payout again.
The other thing worth bearing in mind is that Pix seems to be hell bent on maintaining revenue levels despite a falling userbase. That means they need to milk the remaining players more which in turn results in further decline of the userbase. This trend can go on for some time but cannot go on for ever and shows Pix’s intent as to where they are heading with the game. People need to realise that the strongest message they can send to Pix in terms of moving away from this strategy is not spending. But then again people may actually like the idea of paying for an advantage and feeling better from doing so and Pix may just close the game down if profits are not at a sufficient level. (it is an old game)

My revenge is to keep playing as a “never spender” until I don’t have fun anymore (and I’m a cheap SOB - I can squeeze fun out of rocks and a bucket). I don’t watch ads, scoop up freebies where I can and annoy higher level hangars as much as I can (rooting doesn’t do much damage, but it annoys the schnikes out of MK2 players). I’m a player who costs Pix as much server time as I can without giving anything back. It’s petty, but feels good man |

I was nearly with 100 honor of getting my very first Expert crate and now it is only just under 200! hahaha. These guys are pretty funny. Looks like a drop in tokens at each level too.
I've found these chests annoying for quite some time. I really started paying attention to the number of components I was getting after spinning 6K Glory in a BM chest and trying to open honor chests to get more. At the time it was the only way to get more glory. I am not exaggerating when I say that for the first time since the start of that cycle I got more than 50% of the supposed random number of components for one item. Every other time all 3 have been under 50%. Not so random payouts I suspect!
