I'm NOT installing Remastered version until Pix gets the poop sorted out.
And even then I'll probably be the last in my Clan to move over.
The Remastered version has given Pix carte blanche to do whatever the fluff they want. Buff/Nerf EVERYTHING and we have to take it up the dark place.
Adamant Road Hog MUST work on my Loki. It brings me happiness. No happy = no play.
Phantom must be speedier than the average bot for the same reasoning.
Weapons/Drones must work correctly.
I don't imagine quitting but I can see waiting a bit (a month?) until they shake out the bugs.

*Bump*
I think you should tell your clans to consider not switching to Remastered. I am. The early adopters are just going to have to sit tight. This was not the panacea we all envisioned.
There's a lot of broken stuff.

There's a lot of broken stuff. iOS here, is remastered an update to the existing app or a new/different app? I’ve seen a few threads on this but have not been able to decipher what action is needed (or avoided) to get it.

hi5: It amounts to a whole new stand-alone game. They bring over your hangars/pilots/drones, but, once you install it you can't go back to the previous version. Me? I'm waitin'. My clan is gonna have to wait for me.

I didn't have a feeling, I knew that this remastered roll-out was going to be a struggle for pix. And thereby a lot of problems for the players. I don't blame them for prematurely releasing it as it's an exciting change, and it will re-energize the playerbase. But over the last 4 years I've played this game, pixonic has never pulled a huge change to the game forward let alone re-release the game in its entirety. My opinion is that remastered was likely a December target release and because of the recent player attrition, pixonic management (and likely mail.ru) demanded that it be moved up to counter these player losses. But along with many poorly made by pixonic moves in the past, this might be one of the worst. Splitting the players up is a huge problem. A lot of players will switch over to play remastered to try it out and get their daily/weekly playing fix in. But it will lean out the match making which will aggravate players quite a bit. And as we're seeing, excited players switching over to remastered are now being let down. It will do more harm than good by not doing this right. I know it's a very armchair quarterback thought, but pixonic really doesn't know what the 「fluffernutter」 they're doing and I hope this change doesn't permanently damage the game further.

As is the case with increasing frequency - I have no idea what is going on with the latest scheme from Pixo, but I am 100% sure that whatever it is, it is bad.
I thought remastered was supposed to be an opt in / out graphics update?

My clan is gonna have to wait for me. Really?? And the player base is split between remastered and the existing game? Pixo have made some insanely stupid moves over the years, but this seems like a potential contender for the top spot.

Was running my ads. Then shut it off. After dinner, bam, there it was. All remastered and no download. How did that happen?

Strider feels a lot slower, and there’s an annoying post dash delay, like what the jumping bots have

This was not the panacea we all envisioned. I'm sorry.........what?
Have "we all" been playing a different game owned and operated by the same company as the game I've been playing the last handful of years?

So I guess they are not giving players a choice anymore?

iOS “gently requested” that I update and even showed me how with some helpful instructions complete with a picture and highlighted selections. The game looks like a toddler swiped the TV remote and adjusted the picture controls.

I like my solution better. I’m not installing it. Ever.
