Make it that we pick those modes we don't like to play and all enter 1 main queue. When a game is made, it is automatically checked, if everyone likes it, and those who don't will automatically get matched again, till they get something they like. Not even a need for separate queues. It can be done so that it doesn't divide anything, and even waiting times will decrease for all modes, as some pilots waiting for KoTH mode might like to play other modes and vice versa. War Robots (or Walking War Robots) felt like a very innovative game when I found it, yet now pix is struggling with understanding simple logic and programming concepts,that NEED to get applied to a game as it grows. That stupid excuse that Pix has for not letting me play the game I used to, that the playerbase gets divided, it shows just pure immaturity and laziness. Muy thoughts of this idea, putting KoTH together with any other mode - not a smart decision. First, it feels like hiding from the work again, as it can be made another way, and second, KoTH is played too differently from other modes in my league and need a separate hangar. I'll choose whatever option that doesn't have KoTH, not because I don't like it, but because it's different. At least BR is the seperate line, not TDM, so thanks for that at least. Okay. Well, I think they were gonna test an option where you can choose which modes you want to avoid and it will give you much, much more increased chances of not getting that mode. Don't quote me though as it is a nascent project and might not come to fruition. |

why? , if you are still listening. i'll be quick as to not waste your time. TDM should be team death match, right! In tdm there should be beacons so that you can spawn at your captured beacon just like beacon rush. But no 'beacon' bar, just 'Number of kill' bar like in TDM. Beacon can be used only to spawn at specific location (like enemy territory). Right now, if you go brawling in tdm, it will be a complete suicide. that's why everyone starts to camp because no one can come to home spawn area. OBJECTIVE of TDM - forget about the beacon, just kill as many as possible. so what's the harm if you let the beacon only for spawning purpose. please think about it. That sounds a bit unfair, with the objective being killing and spawn raids by beacons enabled. But I'll tell it to devs anyway. |

That won't help much at all. This is PIX saying, lets force everyone to play KOH since no one likes it. Based on what I've seen in the forums, it's 50/50 that we like Dom or BR and while TDM gets some love, KOTH is loathed by most. Why not put TDM and KOTH in one queue and Dom and BR in another. Better yet, get rid if TDM and KOTH and have two queues, one for Dom and one for BR. Hmm. Well, think of it like an incentivized timeshare. What if we had all four modes getting their seperate queues for 3 consecutive days each one after the other? If you like BR a lot, play during the 3 BR days, if you still want BR, you'll have to do the random till it comes again. Another way we could go about is increased rewards for playing certain modes on certain days/time slots. Thoughts? The idea I have seen on the forum that I liked the most was to have each mode selectable separately, for a standard silver/au/battle rewards payout, but then to also have a "random mode" button that has increased silver/au payouts. That way, those that feel strongly about the mode they play can choose said mode, and those that care less or just want to grind resources can choose random, and the queue times are kept low because the KOTH and TDM matches that no one wants to play get filled by players going "random". Cheers! |

So, some of you know me, some of you don't. As it turns out, I moderate the official warrobots site(no,not this one). Anyway, I am delighted to share some awesome news I got. So, the recent reactions about queues have set the ball rolling for more experiments to strike the fine balance between finding enough players to all the game modes being utilized and most important of all, give players the control back. So, for the first leg of it, there'll be some changes to queues. So, For this weekend (Friday+Saturday+Sunday) matchmaking queues will be reshuffled. BR will receive a separate queue while other modes will get piled into the second one. Thoughts? ... Thanks for mediating between us and Pixonic. I still think the best way to solve this is to allow players to choose which mode they want to include or exclude in the mix as check boxes. Four game modes with check boxes and players will check the modes they don't mind to play - could be one, two, or all modes, - and the matchmaking (MM) will put the player to the next available slot, whatever mode that has been waiting for a player. This way will benefit both players and MM the most. For example, I am willing to play BR, DM, and KotH, and I actually would like the MM pick me the mode. I have multiple hangars that can play all these three modes. I just don't want to play TDM. You could also add a small reward for players who choose multiple modes, if that help. If more players choose multiple modes in their mixes, MM will have a bigger room to breathe. If you please, have look at this poll I made in this forum some time ago, although sample sizes were not that great: war-robots-forum.freeforums.net/thread/20277/check-boxes-game-modes-added You could conduct a similar poll in a more official platform, to gather data with a bigger sample size.

My game is pretty wonked after upgrading on my phone. Can't see BM or royal Spin. My resources keep getting reset to 0. And when clicking Go Battle there is no choice option I just go straight to the koth queue lol. Works fine on my emulator.

How about we just call it a failed experiment? I absolutely hate TDM, and KOTH is the illegitimate child of BR. Pix seems determined to screw up anything they actually got/had right. That's about as politically correct as I can get. Pretty sad when I was once a shut up and play guy.

TDM is the biggest waste of time, just camper heaven. Lets all fire Hyrda's from 600m away! It's either Hydras, Trebs, Gekkos, or Molots and Tempests. It's ridiculous. I also love how I at Expert III can be matched against Masters. This league MM system has been with us for just over a year. Another resounding success for Mail.poo. |

Don't quote me though as it is a nascent project and might not come to fruition. Whatever the outcome, it would be infinitely better than what we have now. Why?, while I have you: 1) What are the plans to deal with tankers? I started a new account a month or so ago. The moment I got out of Private League, I encountered tankers with over 4000 victories that were using Haechis and Shocktrains. That needs to be stopped. Shocktrains and Dash bots shouldn't be allowed below Expert League. It's unfair to harvest silver and gold at the expense of new users. It's a really good way to chase off these new users if they see that they're going to get fried before they even leave the spawn point. 2) When will Worksop 2.0 be released? 3) When will reload on demand come to the live server? |

anyone remember the good ol days when it was just either domination or beacon rush, those were simpler times I wish we could go back to Or when it was just, Enter battle and there was only Dom. It feels like the good old days again on Amazon... I have played over 20 matches today, every one has been DOM. without exaggerating... every one! Now I am not complaining, I like DOM and BR but something changed. Amazon has not gotten the update, of coarse, we are last. (We are the red headed step child. We get forgotten and screwed over as we dont have many of the things the other 3 have.) |

Thanks for sharing the info. This sort of input is valuable. Keep em coming …… Regarding mode bundles. Pix needs to accept (not just hear) that TMD and KOTH are disliked by most and over time the negative sentiments are gathering momentum. Viewing it from a helicopter it is a failed initiative and they should either cut their losses or reduce their allocation so that players see them much less frequently. Otherwise it’s a loss loss. We know Pix can change the allocation percentages in relation to maps and modes. IMO they can implement whatever bundling as long as people end up with an acceptable percentage of the favoured two modes (BR and DOM). Bundling is irrelevant. It is the allocation percantage outcome that matters in this case. …..and they should not spin things and lie about things. Players have been put through the ringer so many times in recent times. |

You are absolutely right about the “campground” called TDM. Very little pilot movement occurs, nothing more than spam fest of no skill weapons. I too play in expert 3/2 and see almost as many masters and champions pilots as I do expert. |

After the update I lost my currency, and when I press "to battle" button I have no options to select like before, or separate BR mode like some mentioned, and I played 15 games since update and all of them were KOH. And Im missing that part where you can open the prize chests.
