I haven't reached this point yet but Cryo weapons just might be the straw that breaks the camel's back.
The thought of being locked down AND frozen repeatedly during a match is really scary.

I played for a couple of years, bailed for about a year and came back almost a year ago. Naturally, I have no recollection of where I was when I left or when I came back. So, now I'm wondering... if I were to bail today at EXPERT III and didn't return for, let's say, a year... would I fall back into SILVER or GOLD? Would my level or status change in any way? Thanks!

Your league points do not decay and the league boundaries are static. While your level wouldn't change, your competition would. Gear inflation will put you at a disadvantage until you've lost enough to push you back to parity. The longer you are gone and the higher up in rank, the larger adjustment you'd experience. I don't think i'd be noticeable in Gold, but at Expert I'd expect you to feel it. |

Thanks! Might not be a bad thing since I'm getting my arse handed to me on one of those cedar grilling planks. FYI... the splinters aren't easily extracted.  lol

Just to be clear here, "lost enough to push you back to parity" means playing games and repeatedly losing to better equipped opponents until your league score is pushed down. - more cedar grilling planks. |

OP, if you dont want to log in than dont. Under the circumstances set a time for when you can play the game and do not go near it at other times. See how that goes. Also set days off. Nothing wrong with moving on in this context.

Yikes! Well, wouldn't it be a temporary increase in plankings? <--- new word for getting an arse beating lol
Basically, I don't belong where I'm at and I'm not for tanking so I wondered if just bail ... stop playing... for a while, will I get pushed down closer to where I belong?

Check with bronzeknee I don't think there's thousands of players, but I'm pretty sure it's been up and running for quite a while now. He got banned.. Bronze was on Android too bit off topic, but why was he banned? |

IDK what happened, personally, but he prolly said something that was bit over the line. He prolly knew it was and didn't care, either. Just a guess though... again, I don't know for sure. |

i went through the 'I'am done with War Robots Phase also" couple years back didn't play for over 3months.
back then i was a Meta-Chaser trying to get every thing that top Players had,Grinding hard, Slaughtering or Being Slaughtered, gong on Horrible Loss Streaks (i believe 4 days and something like 27+ losses was my record. have to go way back in my post to be sure). got fed up and left.
when i got back ,i started to get into the "Bad Habit" of i need this New Bot,New Weapon so I can be Strong and Win More, yes this is the worst habit you can have down right Deplorable cause it leaves "Little Room" for "Fun" and drains Time & Money.
now i do my Weekly Hangar Change up and Have Fun with it 90% of the time. the only time my Bots stay in my Hangar for a week or more is if its Brand New and i wanna get the Hang of it. of course this is a AU&AG draining Route these days with Pilots needing AU, Eco. Cost of Gear, Active an Passive Modules(Modules are the Best "BANG for the AG&AU" for my Style of Hangar Play)
so if you Quite thats fine.
now if you take Time Off from War Robots and Come Back ask Your self "1.Do i Wanna have My Kinda Fun or 2.do i Wanna have the Kinda Kinda Fun everyone Thinks is Fun?" i.e. worrying about Maintaining League Points, having the Best Gear, or Clan Points.
what ever your Decision "stay, leave, taking time off, it's your choice"
cause the Longevity of War Robots is Very,very,very,very Uncertain the way they(Pix/Mail.ru) are running it now. Since we never know when a Update will come when the enough of the Player get Pissed an leave giving Mail.ru No choice but to Close up Shop.

He got banned.. Bronze was on Android too bit off topic, but why was he banned? He was going on about something and refused to listen to the viewpoints of others while adamantly insisting that everyone listen to him. He got warned by the mods for a bit, and decided to play chicken with them (implied that the mods aren't gonna ban him no matter how rude he was being). Then the mods decided to take him up on that challenge and BOOM! Banned. At least that's what I recall lol. |

Just to be clear here, "lost enough to push you back to parity" means playing games and repeatedly losing to better equipped opponents until your league score is pushed down. - more cedar grilling planks. Unfortunately no. While taking a break is great for mental health, you don't move down in any absolute sense. The longer you stay away, the more-likely a planking awaits your return. Not much of an impact Gold and below regardless of how long you're gone, but the impact scales up the higher in league you were and the longer you're gone. Imagine being Top Tier with 12/12 Tarancilots in Champion league then leaving for two years and coming back to an MKII maxed module Ares/Ao Jun fest. You're still a Champ as far as the matchmaker is concerned, but you're facing opponents with about 2 1/2 times your fire-power. Please sir, may I have another! |

cav8r your mistake is being in Masters league. There’s a hard boundary between Expert 1 and Master 3, above it you’re mostly playing Champions with a huge power disparity, below it there’s usually a 3 to 4 league spread of players, and yes there’s a power disparity but not as ridiculous, and there’s more variety. I know because I play in Expert but last night I unexpectedly creeped into the lowest part of Master 3 and immediately began facing maxed out Champions. 90% of players were the same 5 bots with high level last stands, lock down everything, and using phase shift at every opportunity. The battle wait eta was 9s and when I finally made it back to Expert the eta went up to 26s, so there’s definitely a different pool of players across this boundary. You may find Expert fun, or maybe not, just fyi. To stay in Expert don’t level weapons much if any above 7 and bots only to 9 and don’t drive Ares, Ao Jun, Leech, etc. But do mix it up, experiment with different bots and builds. My mistake? Man...nothing further from the truth...my mistake is to have ever played this damn addictive manipulative scam... Now in the context of what you propose. I appreciate your perspective and the offering of different options, thanks for that, however I’m not going back to non capping beacon blues and arthy/hydra lame show. It was awful back then, I can’t imagine how it must be now with the league point system pushing newborns up to expert in 2 weeks |

Thanks for bringing up the alternative tho |

Nothing wrong with moving on in this context. Hard to do that with my, all over the place, work schedule. Other than that, It is just a matter of not finding a sense of coherence in the game anymore so no matter what time or day, whenever I log in, the same non sense action bounces me back out almost instantly... |

To stay in Expert don’t level weapons much if any above 7 and bots only to 9 and don’t drive Ares, Ao Jun, Leech, etc. But do mix it up, experiment with different bots and builds. This is my experience too. I am in E1 now and was pushed up to M3 again because I brought out the primary hangar to finish tasks faster during the event. As soon as I was in M3, I started seeing high Champions League players with being the only Master on our side. Last time I was in Masters I was constantly playing with Mr Perfect. I suspect if there are high Champions League players available, MM will intentionally put a Master in their game to bring the average league score of the given team down. I think I’d have better gameplay experience playing in low champ than playing in M, but I can’t say this for sure, I don’t want to risk it so I play weaker bots that are easy to swap to new toys because of faster upgrade times and lower cost to bringing them to usable levels. The new honor point system helps a lot. I enjoy the matches more, playing range no longer pushes you up. |

If it ever came down to serious contemplation of leaving, then I would switch to 6 pack league. I'm not an expert at 6pack but i'm guessing it's much more affordable, less stressful, and competitive. Does that even work yet? 6 PL? Hello! 6 Pack League has been running non stop since Oct 2017. I've been playing since Nov 2017. There are Fight Club casual games every Wednesday starting around 8:30-9pm est on the 6/6 iOS Fight Club Server on Discord. discord.gg/eRQSdjCThe next League season should be getting underway in a week or two. The 6 Pack League Discord is here: discord.gg/fFREDkrBronzeknee may have been appointed 6Pack moderator here but he's just one of many team captains over there where the real organizing gets done. The current Commissar of 6PL is sargentslaughter, who doesn't seem to be on the forum but is very active on Discord. All you need to be competitive in 6Pack, casual or league, is about 9mil Ag. I regularly run an all silver hangar (2 stock Leos, 2 ThunderPun Leos and an RDB Griffin) and it does well versus casual as well as pimped out League Match hangars. After that you can get as fancy as you like. Just remember that 6Pack is only equipment from the Wild Bunch on back. No Korean dash bots or newer, no Tempest or newer weapons allowed. Matchups count, sure, but teamwork and skill bring home the bacon. Hope to see you there! |

Second game:  Guy to my left (not visible here) got his legs blown off and got stuck. My other teammate on the left tried to fire his jets inside of that tunnel and got stuck on the ceiling. Tip: shooting enemy bot in the nutsack, as I was doing it here, probably doesn't accomplish anything other than giving some satisfaction.  11 enemy kills and... one teammate. Oooops! Overall impression: not bad but pace of the game is too slow. Limited mobility and speed means there's too much slugging it out. |
