. Jarvis ... do you know if the pilots transfer to other bots ? BTW, IMHO, another gluttonous money grab by mail.ru to further trash the game and make it even more unnecessarily complex than it already is (sort of like this sentence).

Where does the speculated cost come from? I haven’t heard anything on what they’ll cost. Curious because I’d love to start hoarding whatever resource I need to get these for free. If it’s 5k Au that’s not bad at all. Personally I like the idea of extended customization on bots. This is no customization. This is simply add x% more. More of what we already have. already if you want to play on the testserver you have to first configure 20min all modules and now pilots plus abilities. As a result you don’t know what you are facing on the battlefield. It’s instant lockdown and death on the testserver (or, the other 50% you deliver death to some guy) it’s more luck than anything else. have you ever played in a casino? Thats how the game feels on the testserver. Press a button and something blinks and flashes and you win maybe or loose.

Isn’t that customization?

Well this is another thing I won't upgrade or care about. I'll stick to my guns.
Once I get the Champion crate to get Hades components I'm leaving champion for good and return to fight "normal" players again.

Pilots are the best update?!?
THEY ARE ANOTHER 「slow」 SO CALLED ENHANCEMENT THAT NOBODY ASKED FOR OR DESIRED. They aren't an "update". Updates add USEFUL features, fix bugs or improve preformance/quality of program...
Yeah, having the DERPtuplets there on your screen.. that there makes for a better playing game. And a richer user experience ya sure ya betcha!
For the Love of Pootin, Stanbolin, if Ya were just gonna put some more modules on Anyways, why didn't you JUST DO THAT?!? What, we're you worried that players would complain because the continued blatant selling of power looks like the same blatant selling of power as It did the last round?
I mean what a waste. You must've paid some folks for what, a couple of days or so to come up with that whole thing?? All that creativity....those graphics..the names and abilities of the characters...Oh gawd, PLEASE tell me there are fascinating origin stories for each and everyone of those compelling and fascinating character thingys... Can't wait to see how these "pilots" interact with their "Commanders". Hopefully they can "POP" Up right there in the battle screen to give valuable and timely advice during battles ( make sure to make the response button to clear the pilots image very small and out of the way so it doesn't block more of the view. Oh and make the button insensitive and requiring several pushes to avoid accidental closing of pilot image)
Oh wait, darn!!! They don't have them for legacy bots?!? Curses!!! I won't be able to have nonessential.
I'm sorry everyone, I'm off my meds. Time for a Thorozine Spritzer with a little umbrella made out of a fentanyl patch. 8)

@ ?? whats the difference to modules and boosters? You could just as well add these ‚customizations‘ as modules or boosters. The difference is this stacks again. The power difference will get bigger. All my matches have a 6000ish players and down to 4000. the lower end has no chance! What do you think these players will do? Many current games are already dominated by 2 or 3 players the lower 2/3 of players is not required anymore, they make no difference.

Even free, its giving meta bots a distinctly bigger advantage. If I may ask, How are you defining this as customization? A paint job would be customization.

Once I get the Champion crate to get Hades components I'm leaving champion for good and return to fight "normal" players again. Yep. My 2019 quarters 2, 3, and 4 budget for Pix is $0.00. If theyâ??d adjust the cups awards/penalties, I could maybe find a home in Masters, where I can avoid the Pay to ?Deutsche? in the game. But as is with cup awards, Champion is purgatory. But Iâ??ve enjoyed the game more since I got off the crack and boosters, lower expectations, better experience, when I want, how I want, and if Iâ??m playing with good blues (BR mode), I hope to help them anyway I can.

The only reason to run legacy bots if you’re in higher leagues at this point is stubbornness. If you play a decent amount you get a free meta bot a month, plus another you make in the workshop. I get it, “whales” will have these right away... I’ve heard it all before. As far as customization goes, sounds like you can choose to be faster or more damage or more armor, or situationally specific like behind on beacons etc. if there’s a list of 10+ and you can pick a few that’s customization. Paint is too, but that’s purely cosmetic.

Hey Pix I want to be able to buff my pilots too, why don’t y sell us necklace and rings to give extra dmg +50%, or sell us a cool Quantum Shade to put on our pilot so he/she can see through stealth. Cool huh the possibilities to milk $$ is infinite, and stupid.
Why not sell us spies and abilities to sabotage reds hangar so they will start with a handicap of 10% reduce dmg and durability right at spawn huh?
Or sell us pets with unique abilities like charm energy bots to take over control for 5s.
This pilot thing is getting out of control overall. It buff the already strong and further widen imbalance in the game. Please stop it.

Paint is too, but that’s purely cosmetic. I didnt mention anywhere I was running legacy bots. I am running a fairly competitive line up i.e inquisitors, bulgs. And ok assuming I do get a meta bot like an Ao Jun or an Invader, do you think the average Champions League player has resources to even get that to L12 in a reasonable amount of time? If you already have all mk2d gear with add ons and play with a crew, yes you have enough invested to earn decent silver sufficient for upgrades. Other than that, NO. You wont ever have the silver. Also, like you, I dont get to pick and choose the league I play in. We have an unfortunate situation where Champions League itself has incredible variance interms of power. And my only point was Anything adding to that power differtial is only going to decrease the quality of gameplay.

After further review there are tons of customization options and I'm actually starting to like the idea on the test server. It's FREE. My only concerns are how this would translate to the main server. Hopefully it's at an affordable Ag/Au cost (not just cash), and it doesn't add to current upgrade times & the slaughter of those with basic pilots. But then again this might be wishful thinking.

If it’s 5k Au that’s not bad at all. Personally I like the idea of extended customization on bots. Legendary Pilots will be at least 10k Au I bet. Actually I think this will more like the Dash Robots release, when everyone worried they would be 14k Au and then ended up far, far more expensive... I imagine that you'll have to hire the pilot for gold for a select period for a contract. Then after their contract ends, you'll have to hire them again. A constant stream of income necessary. That would be the next step in the transition to pay to play that we're heading down. That and ridiculously strong active modules with high power cell costs.

"Promote pilots to learn their stories". Like I care.
Although I am curious why Alika has cat eyes and Stanislav is some kind of crazy termininator cyborg.

Stacking power - Mk2 - modules - boosters - pilots - whatever other bull?dookie? they come up with in the future (and I will guarantee there will be more). It is just getting monotonous this concentration on money making schemes for pay to play advantage. It's a shame they don't BALANCE as much effort into addressing ongoing issues that seem to continually remain unaddressed (in case someone asks what - e.g. MM, tanking/fading, bugs, reload button, variation in weapon capability across classes, PC activation button location, more maps, silver availability out of game play, even a game process review would be great etc etc to name but a few).

I've been sober from War Robots for 10 days. This kind of crap is gonna help me stay 'on the wagon.' This game is literally run by Scrooge McDuck. It's so laughably predictable that they keep introducing new pay scheme's and devices/counter-devices. What's just as bizarre is that Azur has basically re-made War Robots, but has copied all the same crap ideas. Idk, this is amusing. Pixonic, my love, never change!!
