You really need to read this article to believe it: www.gamasutra.com/blogs/VadimBulatov/20171219/311892/8203Players_Journey_in_War_Robots.phpHere are some choice quotes: "The reality of the game is that if you want to upgrade to the most enjoyable and effective robots and weapons, then you have to pay hard currency." "In the end of August 2017, imbalanced Dash robots have come out to the arena with huge firepower, shields, and mobility. You can receive them only on the Black Market - gacha type lottery where you can open loot boxes for special keys. A small number of keys can be obtained by performing game missions, but they basically need to be bought for money. This lottery was brought in September 2017 -the most of the revenues for the game in its history."

@dreamweaver read the comments this guy is not a "normal" gamer he is in gaming industry for long time And on somebody’s payroll, sounds like. When introducing the Dash bots into the article, he called them “Imbalanced”. Yet by the end of the article, he’s claiming the game isn’t PTW!!! Disconnect there...

He did a good job ! If you read this and you are not deep into it you get the feeling he is objectiv good analized the game spoke aboute the problems this game have talk about everything but never deep to the core problems and at the end War Robots is greater than ever ...
I like the other guy who commented

i think his main argument is flawed when he is stating that it is fairer now bc back in the old days you could club with geps and that matter has gone away. Sort of omitting important aspects of the games. Yes gep clubbing has ended but in return there is 12/12 clubbing now and more money you sink in the more unbalanced the game is using those unbalanced robots. Bizarre. But is it really worth a long dialog to say where his analysis was wrong.....

But is it really worth a long dialog to say where his analysis was wrong..... Long dialogue? No. Only one simple equation is needed to blast his post to hell and gone: (Shocktrain + Exorcist) x Leagues = Player enjoyment = game future. Think about it, if that equation is unclear. Most players are FTP, meaning new gear is effectively out of their reach for the few months it dominates the meta. By the time it's affordable or nerfed, something worse is on the way to restart the cycle. The answer to that equation ultimately equals zero.

Read the comment by the lead designer of Blitz tho.
Pixonic just seem very naive basking on their revenue spike of 2017 but clueless whether their actions are causing resentment from their player base and how it may affect their long term.
