The game is purposely geared against US players. I can put up with Gatcha, because I know my way around marketing and merchandising. This, nah, I'm good. Video evidence, one has a VPN using a US server, with 3k AI, the other is their home server, India, with 1500-1600 AI: drive.google.com/folderview?id=1QpWJ5VdlO0CpvnuCvEsf3IpfpveMP_qTShame.  |

punishingcossack more "incentive" to spend money, with a possible side of "stupid US whales".

When did you start seeing 3K ai? I'm almost at 99k xp and sometimes see 2k ai The videos were from an India player that was kind enough to record video evidence of what happens when they use a VPN to relocate their client from IND to USA. They're way ahead of any of us in terms of progression. Their 1500 hangar power is just 3 mechs, and their region got the game almost 2 years ago. I've had 2k+ AI for the better part of a month. It went from 14-1800, to 1600-2000 for most of September, then 3-4 of the AI on both sides were 2K-2.5k, and it's been that way for me ever since. When I run into enemy players, unless they're running a stack of 2 or more players, or are waaaaay stronger than me, they'll get a couple of 3K AI on their team to curb stomp me and my lobotomized allies. The screenshots in the follow up are me. The 2k AI screenshot was taken after turning the VPN off. The 2 1600 AI games were with the VPN on and set to Mumbai, India as the ping server. I almost felt dirty for how easy those matches were compared to having to play perfectly every game for any chance at a win. |

I get 2k ai all the time, but that's OK as I'm at 1900.
Whenever I squad with one particular player (Djalok or something. He's at 1200ish) we always get full 3k red teams. Always. Could that be a server thing?

Could that be a server thing? Possible. The other folks that tested it with VPNs says it explains why they get 3k enemy bots with in game friends from one area, and little difference in MM from proximal friends. Since I'm going the long road of leaving no stone unturned, just playing and thwarting the ever voracious attempts the AI makes on my life has brought me to the 2k+ enemies point. The only mech I own at R4 is Paragon, and that was an accident lol. My max hangar strength can't break 1560(3.7 even X 5) until I have enough coins to start bringing mechs up. |

This sounds about right. My hangar is about 1.6k, and I'm seeing ai at 2.5k. Kinda sucks.

I have to admit, most of my matchups have been pretty reasonable this past week or so. My hangar goes between 1500-1620, depending on my mood and game mode, and I'm usually facing other hangars within a few hundred in strength up or down. I do occasionally get red teams with lots of 2K+ hangars, but many times they are still beatable, and I'm probably 50/50 win-loss in those games. I'm not saying I don't get steamrolled from time to time (usually when I need wins or medals for challenges, or trying to rack up tournament points!), and it does seem to run in streaks, but it's definitely not a constant thing.
On the other hand, when I see a heavy-hangared enemy team and the game starts off getting 1-shotted, I usually start playing like a total schmuck and don't put any effort into trying to win, just score what I can and get the beating over with. Since my biggest concern is just using up all tokens and other resources, it doesn't really matter how I get them; you use them up quicker if you're winning, but win or lose you do eventually use them all up. So may all those losses and generally not giving much of a crap about winning and losing are helping to 'manage' the level of my opponents?

I only experience a beat down maybe once or twice a day. Otherwise, I’m really enjoying my matches. Much better than War Robots; I can actually contribute in MA.
I’ve collected a considerable amount of highly leveled weapons and bots in War Robots, but due to the nerfs my hanger feels outdated and I’m just target practice.
