The new update is strenously unattractive with a pathetic interface.
Too Laggy.
Bad Background for Robot Hanger.
Bad In battle Loading screen Pictures.
Bad In Game Loading Pictures.
Worst In screen animations in terms of claiming rewards.
Worst In screen animation of receiving Damage in Match.

The new interface is trying to compete with BoT which is taking all my time right now because it's better. 8v8 and no Shocktrains = Amazing.
The real question is did they fix the Shocktrain bug?

I tried MEmu, but it doesn't work. My pad is incompatible with BoT, so the only way to play it is on my phone, and the screen is too small for my old eyes ![:(](//storage.proboards.com/forum/images/smiley/sad.png)

First game I played after the update, I met a full mk II squad. I can say matchmaking is not improved.
Sons of Pixonic, of War Robots, my brothers. I see in your eyes the same fear that would take the heart of me. A day may come when the courage of men fails, when we forsake our friends and break all bonds of fellowship, but it is not this day. An hour of mkII wolves and shattered mk I shields, when the age of robots (not whales) comes crashing down, but it is not this day. This day we fight! For all that you hold dear on this good Earth, I bid you stand, Men of this forum!

IMO the most noticeable aspects of recent updates were
- Less balance - Harder economic times - More robots/weapons (most of which take ages to get or lots of RM) - New maps - And finally quality related aspects like slight increase in bugs over time, lag, targeting issues….
Overall, I rather not see an update.

The lag and disconnects are terrible and Pix still insists it's on our end. They never have owned this problem and never will,so tired of them responding that it's our microwave or refrigerator. And the new upgrades that were supposedly made for our benefit stink. Pix has sunk to a new low!

If they don’t acknowledge that it is their problem but blame you than they do not own the problem and leave most players wondering why their set up is poor. The masses don’t read forums and probably believe it. The vast majority of forumites will put up with it (even if it was 5 times worse). I think it is session related overload on their servers. While playing two devices in one household on the same infrastructure one device lags and the other doesn’t. Happens repeatedly and that rules out client side issues.

I suspect that’s the issue too. They sized their back end compute infrastructure to handle say 90% of the load. That is their target. Trouble starts when that 90% is exceeded. That is the technical element. Then comes the financial element. Sizing for 100% of the load would require over investment and result in unused infrastructure most of the time. Profit is greater with a somewhat undersized infrastructure. The backlash say at that 90% is not significant enough to warrant further investment. Pixonic is squeezing as much profit out of the game as possible even at the expense of game quality as long as the masses are willing to put up with it.

Without access to the servers and actual knowledge of the infrastructure there's no way to know any specific details about the environment, let alone capacity, peak or otherwise. No highs, no lows, gotta be Bose...

He's right about their server overload at peak times but he's wrong about the ads. The ads are delivered by the Unity Ad Network, which has no relations with Pixonic and is hosted somewhere else in the world and not connected to Pixonic servers at all.

Ah that's just a setting on their webserver. It drops the ICMP echo request packets. But I guess you knew that ![:D](//storage.proboards.com/forum/images/smiley/grin.png)

If then one game lags, the problem is of course at their end, not mine.

And the new upgrades that were supposedly made for our benefit stink. Pix has sunk to a new low! So, just stop playing? Too bad for anybody, who have spent so much money, that they feel they have to play because of the "investment". I hope you (generally, not kevmac) learn a lesson: never spend so much on a game, that it makes you hesitant to quit just because of the amount of money spent. Of course this would make buying stuff in War Robots too expensive for 99% of players, but that's a problem for Pix to solve, not something which should make you pay even though it is too much for you (where "too much" is defined as, you'd be seriously bummed by the amount of money wasted, if the game shut down tomorrow).

First thing I noticed:
Diamond Supply box giving 18 Keys, was 24 before update
Some 「wee-wee」head with a fancy PowerPoint presentation showed the bosses lowering key amounts in Supply Drop would save them X amount over Y time
Way to sneak that one in there guys, you're the best, love ya, bye.

Bought some gold pre update to help me finish off my Scourge and level it up along with a couple of Orkans. If I had waited, and seen what they did with this update, I probably would have deleted the game right then and there. I'm so pissed right now...oh well...I'll stick out for at least another month and see what happens. I've been playing some other games too, so I'll likely spend no more money on this game and play it less and less.

I tend to be, as some can notice, a diplomatic person. This time, speaking about boosters, I cannot keep this aptitude. I feel it like the worst filth I ever seen in this game. I dislike the way the keys are dropped in number (without notice), but the boosters are the first thing made me wonder if to quit the game. Whales can be more whales and little fishes will become plankton. This is how I feel myself inclined to negotiate:

Little 「dookie」s lowered keys in boxes. 15 from 20 (60 new vs 80 old - one full box) for Gold, for instance.

The boosters are Pix following WoT's lead, just like premium ammo from that game, which made it unplayable at higher levels. If there is an acronym for free to get curb stomped this game just earned it.
