...I am so glad Koalabear posted here about it.
I mean, this thread sorta caps all the crap I've been reading about since I quit War Robots when 6.0 dropped.
Pixo: "We are gonna fix the drone issue... make them easier and more accessible!"
Players: "Wait... wha...? You already messed with them and we've gotten everything where we want them!"
Pixo: "Yes we hear you, obviously you are extremely happy about what we are doing! As a token of our appreciation for your enthusiasm, we are going to replace the items you have bought and ground for with Absorber shields for ALL!"
Players: "What? NO... why?"
Pixo: "You are all welcome! Happy 7th anniversary! BTW... We prefer money as our present. Be generous so we can keep bringing you such quality content!"

I am So Glad I don't play War Robots anymore. The money I saved will pay for part of my upcoming vacation camping. 🚐🚣🔥 P.S.: I am thinking of playing 6pack War Robots actually. Original War Robots was a blast. |

If I want a buggy lag filled mess of a game I'll boot up BoT for a couple of rounds before entertaining Pixo.

I also find this game balanced and fairly sensibly priced for real money compared to the other PvP games I play.HOWEVER I will reserve judgement until we get a global release,I have been stung in the past by War Robots and MB to know sudden large monetary income does strange things to game company's.
Maybe I'm cynical from having my fingers burnt in the past but while the owners and developers make decisions under the "it's still in beta" flag I will keep playing for fun and keep my fingers crossed when they announce a global release date they stay on this path.
That's when we will see what happens with server load, buffing and nerfing and game decisions based on obvious financial reasoning,Pixonic lead the way for fleecing their player base but you can be sure a lot of game owners carefully watch what they get away with and how it can be successful,I have been reading for years War Robots is doomed but it still seems to be going strong,maybe with a reduced player base but it's still there.

Original War Robots was a blast. If you can, I highly recommend joining us in six pak. We have an awesome group on iOS fight nights. Everyone is pretty chill, we hoot and hollar, trash talk, and generally have a great time. 9pm est Wednesday and Saturday nights. Speaking of trash talk. Go Eagles! Sorry, had to do it. But seriously, we would love to have you. |

All the drone rework did was widen the power gap from T3 chips and T4 chips, and make current $$$$ spending meta stronger with purple panty chips, newly introduced. Those affected? High level players. Down in Expert, there is no real diff now. War Robots is what you make it, and if you get caught up on the hamster wheel, well, I hope you can afford it! They also made Schez map nighttime, pretty cool....new map, Abyss, is a hoot, includes teleport pads for everyone, including Titans. New “super” Carnage seems very good, very fast....but it’s an event prize, so $$$$$ gets that for now. As for MA, I’ve tried several times, and honestly don’t get why you guys like it. But, not every game is for everyone. I just don’t see the appeal, and totally believe MA will go the way of ALL mobile app games, making big bucks, sooner or later. Glad you guys like MA, though...having fun is good enough. But at lower levels, War Robots is still tops in my book. Myself, I have no plans to go higher leagues, and am able to manage that with multiple hangars. Cya guys! If ya have a minute or 100, try that Abyss map...just don’t fall into the lava! |

@bananasplit
MA: Simple mechanics with hard counters= higher skill ceiling
War Robots: Flavor of the month, chump up the cash or only gain access after it's nerfed to hell and there's a new, stronger flavor.
Even on it's worst days, MA runs smoother than War Robots ever has.
Beginner mechs are still viable in higher teirs.
Limited weapon and mech quantities make choices meaningful, instead of loading up 3/2 with the two top mechs and throwing the same meta weapons on all of them.

@bananasplit, it is so much of a different experience, from the Devs down to the way the game is laid out, that I can't even compare the two. I gave up on War Robots before I knew about MA. It's not a matter of "making do"... I had already been doing that since the MM change from hangar-power based, to whatever-the-Hell-Pixo-can-use-to-get-money based, and they started this decent into stupidity.
Drones were the last straw. I've tried playing again a couple of times since and was so not impressed.
At this point, the lack of vertical targeting is as big as the crazy MM, targeting glitches, and ridiculous economy. Also, I'm spoiled with good game performance. The best War Robots day is an average day in MA. Device matters too much in War Robots.
In short, I appreciate what War Robots was, greatly. I hate what it's become and can't let go of what it could/should be enough to find the fun in what's left. I'm glad you can... enjoy! But that ship sailed and capsized for me.
