So the first attempt was hilarious. I tried MEmu (Android 4.4, the only environment where the old War Robots was stable) to get into 3 games. 2 crashes on drop, and in one game no textures so I couldn't see any obstacles.
So I switched to LDPlayer64, and lo and behold, I could play a game. Mind you, the graphics quality was atrocious. I couldn't see a thing, MUCH worse than the old version. Pixelated and special effects like Leech connections were hardly visible. And the whole thing was a lagfest, I freezeframed through the game. And of course it took 30 seconds to drop. (The same emulator ran War Robots perfectly smooth, even though I've seen drop delays of 10-15 seconds.) So I don't even care that I saw the Ao Jun bug right off the bat (builtin weapon continued to fire after landing).
Check out the videos. The lag does NOT come from recording. Boy, I couldn't play this version even if I wanted to. Somebody in Pixo is intentionally trying to sabotage the game by pushing out a completely unplayable version, I think.

Lol that last video. I thought they only added a 60-fps option, not a 5-fps as well.
I will test remastered on my emulator, will report back here with the result.

Not sure about anyone else and it could've changed since I got to work, but this morning I still wasn't forced to update to remastered(Android) and was able to get a match in. Though it was Dom, FFA wait times were over 3 minutes

Same for me. Earlier, no change and just now there was no forced update. Even checked play store, and used my apps. Maybe I am slotted to be a discard.

From their website they are saying "In October 2020, War Robots Test Server participants reported that Remastered works best with Nox emulator. Bluestacks and Memu might cause errors." warrobots.com/en/posts/324 |

I say this because I noticed one of you have North America in Server Region and I'm thinking the other is there also.
Hasn't hit us yet.

There was mention at the start of a recent manni video where he said certain version of ldplayer being the best emu for remastered. I cant remember or find it but i think it was 3.65. I dont run an emulator but the android beta did get worse and buggier as the testing went on. Performance got much worse too and my device can easily handle it.

Is it just me, or are some titans absurdly fast? My Arthur runs as slow as ever, but I've seen a red Ming yesterday that was faster than a Loki. I think it closed in by 20m per second, give or take a bit.
Maybe there is a bug in speed calculation, such that a Ming (or perhaps any titan) with a speed module is much faster than it should be?

I downloaded remastered last night and duo squaded 4 games and it was fine, good even. The graphics on the bots were plain but the terrain graphics were nicer (on canyon).

I just downloaded this morning. I played several matches, and I think 3 of 6 crashed mid game.

Valley looks hideous. Water animation is nonsense and completely changes the perception. I couldn't tell what robot is shooting at me.
My Arthus seems to forget his shield on some battles and every robots shots through it.
Igniters doesn't seem to do much damage and it was difficult to spot where are the flames untill they have reached obstacle.
I am not impressed at all.

There's mention on Facebook about Ravana being absolutely dominating on Remastered, but no description. Anyone have details?

Update for me. Played one normal set earlier this morning. Around noon opened to Remaster plastered on first logo. Can't get passed battle found. Can hear the usual noises but game just dies before any visuals. Even did a uninstall/reinstall.

Other than some brief graphical tears when re-entering hangar, game ran very smoothly for me, and the new graphics look great, although the "Ultra-HD" feel will take getting used to.
Wish they hadn't decided to shrink all the in-game text (again!) and the buttons. Over 40 + playing on phone = hard to read anything and lots of fumbling the controls.

This blows!!! They should of just left it the way it was. I tried several (more like 10) battles and all crashed, I cleaned my phones cache and uninstalled and re-installed. Still crashing on every battle. With the amount of money pixonic makes you would think they would be able to get the best tech guys to make this game better.

So now I encounter the firing bug in almost every game. Bot just stops firing, even though I keep fire pressed. If it continues to fire, you can be sure that the movement is 「fluffernutter」ed up and you got stuck somewhere.

Well, I don't think Pixo gives a 「dookie」 about old bots. That Lancelot bug has been around ever since remastered hit the streets. Lance gets stuck whenever it walks on a slope with the ability active.
I also had a nice encounter with an Ao Guang yesterday. As with the Ao Jun, it just kept using the ability damage after it landed, sending a constant stream of Hydra rockets at me, without a break. That was fairly ugly.
