PIX it.
10 battles, and not a single one has had 12 participating players. Welcome to the new, improved War Robots.
I'm done spending more time than it takes to get my daily tasks done. Doesn't even make sense to upgrade weapons or bots when there aren't enough targets to shoot at.

The funny thing is, the most critical of my complaints with the game would go away if I were willing to tank from Gold I (I'm hovering around the bottom of it now) down to around Silver III or so.
Then at least I could squad with some folks without punishing them by pulling them up several leagues.

Doesn't even make sense to upgrade weapons or bots when there aren't enough targets to shoot at. I recently had a stretch where 6 out of 7 battles had tankers. 5 out of those 6 the tankers were on my team. I assure you in those battles, there was *no* shortage of reds to shoot at. When you're playing 4 on 6 it's really astonishing how the reds seem to be *everywhere*. |

I can carry Blue to a win even if we are down a player or two because of tanking. |

My hangar is almost perfectly 9/10 and I have a Trident Fury and an Ancilot. Their hangars are mostly 8/8 and they have neither. I do not want to pull them up into Gold, under any circumstances. |

SlowReflexes I'm in Silver I and it isn't any better. People are tanking on every tier it seems. The only decent match I've been in all morning was one where I was the only Silver league player... everyoneone else was Gold League. We lost, but I came in 2nd on damage and 1st on beacons. Not that that did me any good.

iOS Silver 2 - Gold 3 has the least amount of tankers.

PIX it. 10 battles, and not a single one has had 12 participating players. Welcome to the new, improved War Robots. I'm done spending more time than it takes to get my daily tasks done. Doesn't even make sense to upgrade weapons or bots when there aren't enough targets to shoot at. I can't seem to get more than 1 game in 10 that doesn't have a "ditcher" or AFK in it now. My recent rekindled flame is getting starved of oxygen. What's the good of a MM that matches you with more skilled opponents (which for me it had been and I had some of the best matches since I started playing... but we had no ditchers in them) if you can't get a full 6 on each side? If I was not against better players the ditching and AFKs wouldn't be so bad. But, alas, it is what it is. My apathy meter has been pegged. Especially after seeing the old devs' new WIP game. Is a level cap on the damn leagues that hard to implement? Whether this is a coordinated protest by the pissed off clubbers like that one thread that was removed a couple of months ago said, or just everyone and their buddies deciding that their maxed hangers just perform better in bronze, it could have been avoided. Hangars HAVE to count with MM. Not that Pix seems to get it. Maybe all y'all were right and Mail.ru are just money grubbing RichardHeads that buy, and then drive into the ground, decent games. Whatever. I'm tired of staying positive about something that just continuously says "Screw you" every time there is a "fix." Just like the tanker's queue that isn't. Maybe time for a break. |

When I dropped to bronze to test the Ditcher's League, I was using 1x Plasma Galahad as an anti- tanker bots along with 4/8 AG mediums. There was at least 2-3 obvious tankers per match. Fortunately, they weren't that good. |

I still enjoy this game problems and all.. but yeah it can be frustrating for sure.. I just had a run of 15 games straight loosing .. most all having 1 or 2 man short and or tankers on team.. also it keeps placing me against players way stronger than me.. so yeah it's a bit frustrating, but I still enjoy the game all said. I look at got this way, by being tossed in with these higher stronger players it is making me adjust my game play jam learning to hang back and make my bots count now, instead of rushing head long into my death LOL!
