So I’ve been top running around MA with the IH8Pigsonic tag now since I started playing. In fact that was my pilot name in War Robots, as well. But now it’s been a week since I crapcanned War Robots, and I’m not missing it in the least, and I’m wondering if it’s finally time to let go of all the anger that had been building up over most of the last four years. Oh, the things that consume the drabness that is my life.

I mean... it's a pretty great name But... I think you should follow your gut on this... BTW, your post made me have a bit of a self reflection and I am definitely in the Elsa stage of my break up with War Robots... I have let it go. I realized that the more I hear or read about the current state of War Robots, the less I care about re-downloading and trying things out once Re-Masters hits. MA is just more fun. There are things I liked about War Robots that took me well past the P2W turn that it took that MA doesn't have, either. BUT, now, War Robots doesn't have those things, either, so I am left with just fun in one hand, anger/frustration/disappointment in the other... and it's a no-brainer for me. I have a decent amount of money invested in 2 of my War Robots accounts... not whale status but more than many, I'd bet, yet I don't feel the same pull to try and get more out of it, anymore. It's turned into a 「dookie」ty game because of 「dookie」ty people in charge.

As for the IGN, screw it ... like they say, dance with the one that brung ya. The name stays.

I haven't gone the final step of uninstalling (yet), but I haven't logged into War Robots for a few weeks now. Not missing it for all the reasons ⓣⓡⓘⓒⓚⓨ48 mentions above. Danny Linguini, if you do choose a new IGN, please don't follow the route of the beloved AI or we won't know it's you (Pasta4Yuu; PastaMasta; LinguiniLuvR; etc. etc.)! - mind you, I can talk as lavajava!!

Danny Linguini I'd say let the hate go. Not because you hate the game/company any less, but because no one should live with hate in their hearts. Take the lessons you learned from War Robots with you. Don't over invest (mentally, emotionally and financially) in any game. Mech Arena is great now, but who knows what will happen down the road when the developer gets bigger and has more bills and needs to bring in more income? Games are supposed to be fun and relieve our stress, not be overly frustrating and CAUSE stress. Besides, there are things in MA that I wish they would change/fix. The biggest is the physics/mechanics when you bump into other blues. Like how the heck does a heavy Guardian get pushed around by a pesky Lancer? Or how does a blue Killshot use your mech as a ramp and suddenly appear on top of some crates? Or how frustrating is it that you try to back away from advancing reds and try to get into cover only to find that a blue is already there and he's causing you to not only get into said cover but also seems to be pushing you out into the open? Other than that, I would LOVE if they added a transforming mech one day - preferably one that flies so that I can strafe reds from above and laugh while their shots miss. It would be uber vulnerable to Javs of course and probably be SSK'd by LAs, but everything else would only do piddling damage to it as it roars down a fire lane.

Bl00dy blocking my route, pushing me into the open, generally getting in the way - and yet I cannot budge them one jot! this is by far my biggest frustration with the game.

I'm sure they are - and how do the AI Juggs (4.5 kph) match my Ares (5kph) or even Panther (5.5kph) as we both waddle towards bacon, often with the Jugg nudging me off the direct path.

Pro tip - keep some distance from allies, even go where they are NOT congregating. This does not necessarily mean avoid teammates completely, but I have found ways to mostly avoid these issues you guys are talking about. What I also found to present some issue is allies blocking my salvo from getting to target, but again the adjustment is simply to be more careful with positioning and paying attention to ally location before hitting any fire buttons.

The biggest difference of the rubberband in the MM is 1 star. Snipers and mortars will feel bad when you first start encountering them. But, bot health grows with leveling up more than weapon damage does, so there are less unavoidable 1 tap deaths as you progress to the point where they don't happen anymore.

Hmm I’m ok with that as long as I get to do the same or similar. Its getting murdered by an unobtainable super bot while still on noob island that bothers me the most Some SSK (single shot/salvo kill) scenarios: RM against light mech standing still Jav 6 against light mech in open LA against non-tanky mechs moving slowly or standing still MR8 against slow or still targets - combined with Guardian or Zephyr's ability, can take out tanks too The key to avoiding SSK is to keep moving and/or use cover wisely. RMs pack a lot of punch but only if you're standing still and most or all the salvo lands on you. Javs against light mechs are brutal - which is why I usually lead with it on CPC games to pick off other light mechs. For LAs, you can't move in predictable manner. Today, I actually wasted a full magazine against a Killshot out in the open but he juked from side to side so much that I missed every shot...I felt so embarassed! Against MRs, the key is to run laterally as if running from Orkans. I've missed SO many shots against fast mechs that did this.

Danny Linguini and anyone else frustrated with War Robots, it's best to uninstall War Robots and forget about it. The game many of us loved doesn't exist anymore and it's never coming back. Pix is terrible and has completely mutilated a fun game (and you already know that by now). Sometimes I think of all the fun times I had with the game and I consider going back, then I remind myself of the constant nerfs and terrible practices by Pix. I have a ton of silver, gold, and platinum and everything is either maxed or close to it and I don't want to go back even burn through that. I might have burned it down if they didn't bring in drones. Plus, the Champions League games were getting worse and worse with tankers. You could run in a clan for a few hours at night and only have 1-2 good battles. Steam rolling randoms isn't fun. The thousands I spent on War Robots was fun while it was fun. No regrets to the time and money I put into War Robots. War Robots isn't fun anymore and I play video games for entertainment. I kept hoping that Pix would come around and slow things down to a more reasonable level, but after the nerfs and new module came out in April, I just uninstalled. I don't enjoy MA as much as I did War Robots prior to titans. I hope MA gets better and it comes close to what War Robots was a few years ago. (War Robots really was a great game for a while.) I realize you already know this. Many wish for the old War Robots days. It's not happening with Pix and the game will continue to deteriorate.

Despite my frequent complaining, I’m mostly enjoying MA about as much as War Robots when it was actually good. I’m just concerned, as are a few others here, that MA is heading down the same path. I mean, $20 and $30 skins AND very, very long used costly upgrade paths that can be bought with RM gives me worry that these guys are going to be more concerned with wringing every last dime they can out of the whales than a good gaming experience. I’m already seeing signs of it, facing heavily upgraded hangars by players with a fraction of my XP, which means that even in beta people are already buying their way up. But I still hate Pigsonic.

I totally agree. It seems that MA gets really expensive starting at 4 stars. I am not going to spend much more because I am not going down that path again. The tournaments are fun, but not for several hours each day. Finishing mid bracket doesn't pay much and probably not worth doing if you're upgrading 4+ star equipment. Since the game is fairly new there's hope.
I have never played a game that was run as bad as War Robots. Pixonic treats the player base like dirt. I can't believe War Robots even has the player base it has with all the constant nerfs. I am hoping Plarium is still figuring it out and will improve the game. If they don't, my hangar will likely never go past 4 stars and I will leave the game.
Plarium's big game is Raid Shadow Legends. Anyone know someone that has played that for a while? Curious if that game is very expensive after the entry levels.

I hear Raid is serious P2W, so doesn't forecast well for this game. I agree to not invest too heavily with cash in this game since we don't know how it will turn out.

I have one piece of advice for you about raid. Stay the ?fluffernutter? away from it, its not enjoyable, the story sucks, the gameplay sucks, it's heavily P2W, and drop rates are screwed. Overall? its another gacha scheme

Let's hope that Raid is their cash cow and this is an off shoot they are doing for fun... Fingers crossed but not holding my breath!
