How do the 50 top legends all have mk2 korean bots????????

WoT has a hanger based matchmaking system. So if you're Tier 6, you can be matched up to Tier 8 in a T6 to 8 match, in between a Tier 5 to 7 match, or be the boss in a Tier 4 to 6 match. Allegedly they have been accused for matching players to higher tiers in order to encourage upgrading, but it seems to me, their matching is intended mainly to reduce waiting times to produce as many matches as possible in the shortest period of time. Even if you are clubbed, there is going to be times you will act as the clubber. This also depends where the bulk of the player population are. If much of the player base is in T9, being at T7 will increase your chances of getting clubbed.

War Thunder also uses a hanger based matchmaking system, but their battle rating system is more flexible than WoT. An overperforming asset may have its battle rating changed to a higher tier if it has lop sided W/L results and damage relative to its tier counterparts. Whether you are clubber or clubbed depends on your intuition where the maximum population is, as the population curve will eschew the matchmaking. Generallly, you are matched with +1.0 or -1.0 of the battle rating of the highest vehicle in your preset. A Tiger I tank with a battle rating of 5.7 will be matched against 6.7 (5.7 to 6.7) or as low as 4.7 (4.7 to 5.7). This also covers in between such as 5.0 to 6.0 and 5.3 to 6.3 matches. But your Tiger I tank isn't going to be matched against an early Cold War 7.0 tank.

From what I have read on the forum, there isn't much point in buying the top 4 bots in War Robots anyway. There are other bots at lower levels that offer more effective game play. I have my heavy bots divided between long range and close-in fighting. I tried light and medium bots, but they simply don't have the life expectancy to be effective or crucial in the game. I have zero motivation to purchase upper level/advanced bots because they don't match my play style, plus I don't want to spend that much cash. But I don't begrudge those that have the cash and the urge to go that route. To each his own. I don't mind fighting against P2W bots, because in Domination mode, I haven't seen one "indestructible/unbeatable" bot. Even the ones with dash get blown away. It may take more than one attack on them, but they die just the same. I don't know about any other mode and clan play as that's not really my thing. Right now I am upgrading my weapons to match the levels of my bots. In a few cases I have exceeded those levels, like for cannons and the Gekko. Once I get all the weapons purchased and upgraded, i will work on raising the levels of the bots to higher than level 6. I was kind of surprised that Pixonic only offers a maximum of 5/30 days for Premium time. Wargaming offers up to 365 days for $99. At Christmas they cut that price in half. So 365 days for $50. That's a pretty good deal and they extend that time for ALL 3 of their combat games. Pixonic's price for 360 days is $120. Kinda steep. But not horrible. I no longer buy Prem time in large chunks, after getting burned badly in Armored Warfare. That game went right into the crapper after their developer bailed. 

That's only for Google Play, which is Pixonic's biggest market at the moment.

I'm not seeing the graphics to be that better, compared to it being on my Galaxy Tab S3.

The variety comes from different red death tumbles. Sometimes the red rolls down the slope slowly. Sometimes it dies it a middle of a jump and falls down like a dead leaf in still air, so gracefully it is almost unnatural. Sometimes the red falls against a wall and looks almost like it is just taking a short break, sometimes it lies on ground looking as dead as a piece of virtual mecha pixels ever can.

Endless variety.

Tangentially related: when I semi-accidentally switched from HDMI to VGA from my i5-6200U (integrated graphics, which are pretty good on that i generation already) laptop, I saw marked improvement in War Robots (FBGR) performance on big TV screen. Not sure why, maybe crappy Intel drivers. Still, War Robots changed from barely playable to very good.

I agree. I switch my hangar around a good amount always looking for the great setup. But even if I had 5 Haechis I wouldn't use them all at once. It would be boring. No light weapons, no heavy weapons. No jump. No physical shield. Lots of reasons. 

Funnily enough, this was the complaint of the TT players almost 12 months ago which led to the introduction of the new bots. Nothing has changed then in that regard except the cost (profit).

That can work too but I have no issues with my Galaxy Tab S3 or my Asus Zenpad, which has a much bigger screen than my phone, or using any one of my Chromebooks.  On the Chromebook Plus, even very little details can be seen.

I am not willing to give up my Android account, which has all the goodies, and a much larger and competitive player base for a Facebook account, period.  And yeah, along with that, I get the benefits of playing in the test server.

I tried it on my Android phone. Just no fun there. I would need a giant magnifying glass to get the size I get on a 27 inch monitor. I still have the account. But never use it. I prefer the benefits the Facebook account gives. The current Black Friday sale gives me many more bots to buy than what is on Android. Player base on Facebook is plenty challenging for me. I don't make a career out of playing a game. 

Viewing is certainly not an issue with this baby, 2500 x 1600 on a 12.3" screen. And yeah, that's my Android account.

I certainly do ENJOY the view, especially with a 2500 x 1600 screen.   I got very sharp details, not details that blow up not properly on a 27" screen.  If I want to enjoy a game on a 27" screen, it would be a dedicated PC or console game on PS4 or XBox One, where the graphics are fully utilized.  And by the way, if you have not noticed, the polygons and textures are not that sharp on the bots as they are on the weapons, a flaw that is already apparent on tablet screens much less on TV screens.  This game is NOT SCALED for TV size screens.   There is  a HUGE difference between a ported mobile game versus a game that is truly meant for the PC and large screen viewing.  And by the way, those Chromebooks have HDMI output like that one above.

Here is what a PC game truly looks like.



I do have a job, and at the same time semi-retired since I own a business and people are running it for me.  So I can play anytime I want, spend anytime I want.   I am not exactly young, so playing is something I must do to keep my brain and senses sharp and going.

But keep in mind that War Robots is quite unique. Other games are in the top 100 even though dozens of similar games exist (and often are in the top 100 too).

I play a few War Robots games here and then simply because I lack an alternative, I'd jump to BoT in a heartbeat if it became available (unfortunately I don't have an iOS device so I'll have to wait).

In any case, thanks to EA and the Star Wars Battlefront II debacle, government regulators are taking a serious look at the loot box game industry.  Inevitably, no one, and certainly not Pixo, will be excluded from this scrutiny.

I also play World of Tanks before, game is full of crap, then moved to War Thunder which is an absolutely far superior game in every way imaginable.  I also played World of Warships, and still play it, yup bought the Kidd destroyer, which is the latest premium, but generally I am bored with it as the game is too passive and it simply isn't as exciting as War Robots.  Mainly back to Mechwarrior Online right now, which is another brawl'em and sock'em game.    War Thunder can certainly hold its own against War Robots but they are concentrating their development on modern tanks and jets, there isn't much left they can do with World War 2 anymore.
