a meeting between pix and some of the top Utube players to discuss game issues and listen to our complaints. They gave lip service and I would say 99% of those issues still exist plus much more. I thought it referred to back when the camelot bots were released for some reason, as in "knights of the round table". No. It was an amazing show, with ~15 youtubers talking to a Pixo representative. From memory (there is an audio transcript lurking there):
We: "We want to squad with low level teammates again" Pixo: "So you want custom games?" We: "No, we just want to be able to equip low level bots and squad with low level teammates". Pixo: "We'll give you custom games, then".
Pixo simply ignoring the core problem and offering a "solution" that doesn't solve anything. Complaints about tankers were ignored.
For those who don't know, we had hangar based matchmaking before that. A champ player could equip level 6 medium bots and squad in a "bronze" class with equally levelled teammates. Thus, if you wanted to have fun with your teammates that didn't have a l12 hangar, you could. Was an amazing way to teach clanmates, too. Today, any champ player draws squads into champ.

War Robots is less and less about robots that blow stuff up and more about magic, other dimensions, spells and crap. Did I miss the memo where this became shadow legends?

My ability to mentor new pilots and properly help grow my clan died overnight with the introduction of the new MM and the loss of that. As did my ability to have fun squadding with my own son.

I was a clan leader (it was passed on to me) I had one other champ guy with good gear the rest were lower level but played well. Once they change the MM I could not squad with them anymore and I eventually left them to move to a full champ clan. Like you could not train or enjoy the squading anymore. Before I kept lower level stuff around to swap in.

Agreed, I have no plans whatsoever, of 「wee-wee」ing around with drones. Totally unnecessary addition to an already broken game IMO. Im also done 「wee-wee」ing around with pilots...skills...spending... What I gots is what I gots for the remainder of my time in this game, unless Pix does a DRASTIC overhaul to fix their stupidity...? Me holding my breath...

As did my ability to have fun squadding with my own son. This sucks. I'm in a clan with my 8 YO. Just me and him. He's good, knows the game better than me. But he quit, plays Roblox now. He watches a lot of video's on YT about all sorts of games and 100% understands the P2W model Pix enables. I squadded with him a handful of times, with his 4 bot lvl 23 hangar, and we got prison pounded most of the time. I would just stick by him and protect him best I could. Would be cool if we could just enjoy some games together.

And then u made him squad with u with his weak hangar which caused him to quit? Wow. Hopefully he will see the light and return to playing so that he may share in the bounties of this best game ever made.

Between this and a lengthy history of aggression toward other members here, you get a week off while the Mods decide what your long-term membership prognosis will be.

WRT drones. I reckon the big spenders have already maxed their bots/titans/weapons/pilots/modules and whatever else. However, Pix is of the opinion (probably correct) that the big spenders are still willing to spend more but there is nothing substantial to spend on. Hence the addition of the new P2W drone feature. Spenders need a reason to keep spending and drones will be it. Drones will probably unbalance the game further by a certain margin (say 20%). After the drones are maxed and a bit of settling down period there will be a new feature to spend on for the same reason.
The biggest issue for me with such initiatives is the ever increasing distortion caused by P2W which in turn makes the game boring. Pix is too greedy and thus hardly ever nerfs a previous monetisation feature in a meaningful way. On the contrary, they at times double down with such actions by increasing costs associated with former monetisation mechanisms (eg, pilots). The game being boring is the real deal breaker. For me anyway.
While i dont see a need for drones in terms of game play, i can understand how Pix wants to maintain revenue by including new features. But for 「fluffernutter」s sake stop being greedy and nerf previous monetisation features out of existence in order to maintain semblanced game-play. No need to skin the cat two or three or four times.
