The release is out and quite frankly its a damn mess and confusing beyond belief ..Its smells of engineered mistakes so you can pay up to "fix it". I can't for the life of me think that people will spend the time and money to peruse this giant mess. I still don't understand the implementation and application of the latest ?dookie? show...
What, besides hiring an War Robots "investment" professional is the average player going to do? If you guessed get tripped up then ripped off you would be right.
Pilots is a desperate Fail in my book...but don't let that stop you. Pix expects you to eat what ever they hack up..
The most powerful skill in this game is called "none of the above". Its the rarest of the rare.

I can see a skill or 2...
but for full skills?
500+1000+1500+2000+2500+3000+3500+7x1k
21k Au and god knows how much experience to cap a single pilot
ONE HUNDRED THOUSAND AU for ONE HANGAR - that will go obsolete in 3... 2...
yeah...no.
Meanwhile the world is fluffernutter'd and nothing ever changes.
In other news I did a 17mi bike ride on Florida beach trails, do Russians think we don't go outside? Because some of us do!

Dont think too much. The existence of the pilots is to keep pushing people up and in the process sell the rarest pilots for the better bots, therefore climbing even faster, "investing" more on the better stuff, etc. Another way to fill the highest leagues and put pressure on those who pay so they keep paying to feel the bests or fit in the league they reached.

I heard you the first time bro. Let's try to put a refreshing spin on this, devs are only in it for one thing, and it ain't to please you or me with fairness, consistency, trust building etc.
Here we go, this game is still very much free (for me anyway) and the yuck yucks that pay for all this crap allow me to continue to play it for free. It is slimier than a sea of sperm, but let's consider the other side of the coin...free players, like me and others, are allowed a free ride due to Phil and Stans monetization racket. Most of my weapons are OE, and hit Mk2 over a year ago. I'm good. If I get pushed down to Master League, better still.
Mk2, events, tokens, keys, power cells, upgrades, components, modules, boosters, and now pilots?
Go on, pay up elite "Champion Clans" and wannabes, so I can continue to free-load this so-called "skill" game.
I'm loving it, more please Phil.

What are the chances that pilots put some distance between us and the whales in the matchmaking? Damn it, there I go again with that naive hopeful thinking. Forgive me.

I don't mind pilots now I've played around with them for a few days.
Buy a cheap one. Between 100 and 200 gold. Put it in a bot. Hopefully you can jag a good skill. Play it. Level up the pilot. Cheap bot upgrade.
MM will play you against reds to kill. If you care about leagues or keeping up with the meta you need to work on that and stop caring about it.

Seeing as how my 1st hangar isn't even mk1 12 yet nor do I have the silver to get there, it feels like the addition of pilots is a slap in the face.

Once i realised you have to pay gold to promote them i gave up. Who has all this spare gold just lying around? 1000 gold just to pick a fricken skill, what a joke. Ive noticed they re use the same pics for different pilots, maybe all the gold earnings will enable them to generate more than 5 pilot pictures. I dont know if they re use the stories, because i stopped reading at "life was a party blah blah".

Having gone through and acquired 5 TNRs and 5 heavy armors, Pilots are an amazing value for my active hangar.
I have decided I might be a dolphin.
I however will not be upgrading beyond the 1500 mark.

After 2 years of playing, I decided it's time to quit. I didn't pick a pilot. Decided to duke it out with those that did. When your MK2 with max Thermal Nukes doesn't even scratch their paint job, then you know it's like practically starting back at level 1 all over again. I don't want to add any more complicity to my playing style. So I'm done with Dookie.

Does anyone think all the pilot logic fully works? I mean, there are a lot of rules there that had to be implemented and pretty complicated... e.g. if beacon captured, restore HP. if other teams has more beacons, buff your weapons. It seems like it would be a nightmare to test all the possibilities.

Just got through playing a few games...and it was as close to unplayable as I've ever seen without death squads. Players are playing more stupid and the bots are just insane with not knowing what you're going up against. Where's the strategy in that. As we've said all along, when it becomes "not fun" stop. I haven't been this close to putting up the game in a long time. But Dixhead may have finally come up with the right combo to finally do it for me. |

It is what it is, it is a narcissistic entertainment service packaged to make you feel like you have skill, posing as a "competitive game". You may or may not have "skill", but playing this game tests only one skill, and it ain't gaming (the ability to hide the bill from the Mrs.). Btw, I played a few games yesterday after the iOS release, a VOX clan member (FredMRL SP???) already had all legacy pilots, all maxed. He was walking right through everything, no peekaboo that I could see, just smashing the hell out of everything. The only reason I took notice is b/c some of the blue clan tags were well known in Champions League, so I thought "how can this be"? Yeah...it was within an hour of the release. That's cool, his "monetary contribution" allows me to play this game for free. Sometimes I'm the predator, most of the time I'm the prey. Since I don't pay, I'm fine with being the prey, this is the system by design, and it won't change. I also play WSOP (poker) and there's no shortage of idiots there too. |

Looked at Legend League on Android and a bunch of folks already have pilots at level Colonel...OMG, how much did that cost and what sort of insanity does bring to the battlefield?

Since I don't pay, I'm fine with being the prey, this is the system by design, and it won't change. I also play WSOP (poker) and there's no shortage of idiots there too. Yup, I’ve see some of this too. A couple days in I see: 1) A few whales w maxed legendary pilots - Meh, now these guys can crush me in <2m instead of <3m, which actually works out to my advanage since it gets these craptastic matches over with quickly. And now I can see more equipment detail, BB, Last Stand and LD on every freaking bot. Lazy bah-stard, learn to hit a moving target, lol. 2) The heavy grinders/medium spenders - a couple of legendary, a few cheapos all generally level 30-40. Kind of the same story here, mostly maxed mk2 and have a 20-40% power gap vs me already so what’s another 10-20%? 3) My class - 3 or 4 cheap pilots level 5 to low 20’s, easing into the pilot scene. I bought 1 specific skill (Traditionalist Falcon) and got decent enough random skills with only 1 50 au re-roll. 4) The boycotters - They hate everything about pilots, hate modules, hate free videos, hate the P2W power gap, they’re whinging about it all the time, and yet...they are still playing! What’s whinging?  |

These pilots are so cheesy. Every 12 hours you get a selection of pilots randomly generated from one of X number of first names, X number of last names, and X number of avatars. There is nothing unique about each pilot so what is the point? So damn cheesy, they should just have a list by skill level...What skill level pilot do you want to buy? 8? 4? 11? There you go, buy it. No stupid names, no stupid avatars. Gotta love when they match a random Russian name to some other last name to some other avatar. So you end up with a black guy named Vladimir Takeshi or whatever. SO DUMB.

Pilots are not problem. Problem is matchmaking and leaugues.
There should be 2 higher leaugues that Champs and selections would be made. |

for me having Pilots is useless as i change my Hangar every week. the
only time i keep a Bot in my Hangar for a Week or More is if it is New and i wanna get exp. in it.
when i start Playing the Game again, the only Pilots i'am gonna Buy are the Chicks.
