As a long time enjoyer of this game, I’m curious as to the long term plan pix has for this game
As of now the spam of meta gear and titans/ships has been big
Rebalancing and map remakes as well
And pilot diversity
But where does it all head? Is it gonna slow down anytime soon
Im curious if any of the higher ups in this forum have any knowledge

Once Pix's redident 6-year-old runs out of "bigger, better, and more fun" ideas, they'll recruit a 5-year-old to take things to the next level.

War Robots was (emphasise WAS) a mini-strategy game in itself. - Patton for 4 Lights? Or Gepard for 3 Lights but more speed? - Vitayz for 1 less Light with more speed or Leo for firepower? Or Natasha for the extra Heavy - Gepard for speed? Or Galahad for firepower and its uber-powerful physical shield?
Even when flying dragons came out, I have to decide to drop Ao Jun first or Raven last.
Now just drop the latest magic bots and spam holy lights. Pix has profress the game to be beginner friendly. Easy play no stress over strategy.
Hate the game don’t hate the player. Or is it the other way round? Just don’t “dislike” me. LOL.

The majority of pixonics revenue comes from Champion league players. There comes a point for many when they've had enough of the ruthless, greedy tactics like nerfing everything that is relevant after a few months to make way for a new lineup to swap out for. It wouldn't be so bad if they did things incrementally. Case in point is all the titan nerfs coming tonight making every single weapon useless so we'd have to buy the new titan and weapons. They don't care about people enjoying the game through diversity in gear. They only care that as many people as possible are forced to buy the new stuff to stay competitive. Let's face it, those of us in champion league know exactly what I'm talking about. Ever wonder why your hangar is fully maxed MK3 everything including drones and pilots and modules, but you get creamed like you were using mk1 gear? It's because Pixonic own employees play the game, except they have cheats and hacks that are approved by the company. Ever wonder how "hackers" hack the game? They can't because it's nearly impossible. Hackers would have to gain access through pixonics firewalls to the web servers and alter code. All that for what? Just to cheat at a game? I don't think so. Those hackers are all Pixonic approved. I'm not ranting it just the way I see it. I work in IT and I know about these things.

If you search it on YouTube there are some pretty hilarious videos of hackers and cheaters being caught when the boast and share live screenshots and accidentally have their cheat apps open. Some are simple and intended to bridge the gap between PC and device like a targeting app that assists with, well.., targeting. I do think there are elements of truth to your post, but I also think there are legit cheaters out there who are capable of firewall breaches, or simpler things like using available cheat-ware. I cheat by spending stupid amounts of money on this game compared to most. This is just another shade of poisoning sanctioned cheating. Obviously it is not the definition of cheating, but given how matchmaker functions, it basically equates to that.

Same old 「dookie」 is where this game is headed. Terrible matchmaking, Groundhog Day releasing then nerfing OP 「dookie」. Or releasing new 「dookie」 to counter old 「dookie」 because they made a mess with that original 「dookie」. Then release 「dookie」 to counter the new 「dookie」.
So like with the 「dookie」 blinding titan lasers, now release anti blinding drone. Next will be an counter-anti blinding drone pilot, then a re-counter-anti blinding mothership, then new ultimate blind Uno reverse blind counter blind anti counter blindy blinding blind active module. Then a new map where it is super sunny and everyone is blind, before releasing new mechanic of robot sunglasses, then come the sunglasses proof lasers, and then robot gazebo, countered by anti gazebo blinding missiles, then shielded by the robot parasol drone. Then new titan that is just a floating ball of blinding energy which you only hit with the new robot that has its head on backwards and shoots 1000m, homing, blast, chill, poison and sonic missiles from its hole and has to walk backwards all game.
Then the anti-walking backwards mothership lands.
Then they release fatherships that can do whatever 「dookie」 magic is next. It will probably be able to land and 「dookie」 on everyone, then you will be able to buy an add-on peripheral for your device that gives you a button which literally takes your cash direct from your bank just to active the one hit kill weapon you have been stupid enough to buy, then version 2 that donates your childrens organs or can suck your soul straight from your body into the canteen at Pix office.
So in summary, the game is headed down the same old path.

It would seem that War Robots is offline (at least for iOS), so wherever it was headed, maybe it has arrived.

BECAUSE I have NEVER come across a single hacker that can play. I cream and troll them during Skirmishes (not normal matches cos I not that clever to cash dump a bottomless pit).... no matter what bots they use they move like SKILLESS Hover and Strider pilots that cannot aim, they probably need to dangle toilet rolls on their eyeballs just to see. So yes Pix 5 and 6 yo employees really can't play their own game. Big Time LOL. Sorry off topic. LOL

It is headed to the bank. That was always the direction. I am sure they wanna keep going back and back again as long as possible.
The fast release of gear seems to be a change in monetization strategy. Earlier on content was uber expensive and unattainable without spending a decent amount of $. Release cycles were 6 to 9 months. Now the direction appears to be less exclusivity for new gear, cheaper resource costs for leveling and much faster release/nerf cycles.
They broadened the base for potential spenders instead of relying on a much smaller base for the revenue. Noting this game is P2W and they will milk the players as much as they can, i think the latter approach is actually better.

I don't care where it's headed, I'm in too deep to pull out now. Ya know, I'm afraid even I have to admit that's part of the reason why I haven't quit completely yet. One day if y'all never see another post from me again you'll know that a $300/month player is gone. If $300/month is not worth it for Pixonic and they still need to cheat to stick it to me during my matches, then so be it, one day I really will be gone. I don't know if the moderators here get financial incentives to hide the serious trash talking about the game, but they definitely don't like it because it's what the forum is all about and what they are controlling. I really want to see the game be fair for all at all levels, but pigsonic just ramps up their BS baloney every single day to stick it to me. Honestly I can't play 8/10 matches because how bad it gets with the disguised cheating at me. It's ok because I know that when I do stop playing they will miss my $300-$600 per month revenue. If that's small change then that's cool I'm sure any other mobile game would love my business.

I don't know if the moderators here get financial incentives to hide the serious trash talking about the game, but they definitely don't like it because it's what the forum is all about and what they are controlling. Nope, no incentives, I'm a volunteer that gets paid in giggles from y'all. Please keep those memes coming! 1. We did have that one member who was possibly a Pix shill, he was Mr. Super-Postive all the time. As a group we sniffed out his ridiculousness. I forget if he left or if we kicked him out. He's not missed. 2. HYPOTHETICALLY, let's say I was a massive defender of Pix: A: Y'all would know it. "What's this guy smoking?" B: Who would I really influence? Kinda sorta 50 hard core posters and 150 lurkers? There are entire countries or even continents that aren't members here. So as a ShillMonster I do a crap job of reaching huge swaths of people. I wouldn't pay me. 3. Pix's best "money" is spent on the YouTube influencers. Some of which post here, cool! Pix gives them the cool stuff, they play with it, and post videos on how effective the new toys are. Pix giving away cybertoys to ~50 people world wide is CHEAP and seemingly effective. 4. We tamp-down some of the Ranting/Observations because it is toxic and un-fun. We did create the Rants section where I/we give a LOT of latitude. If I see a full-on melt-down in a post but it's in Rants I give it a lot of leeway. With my scoring system you could say I almost encourage ranting (oops.) At the end of the day we all need to decide to play or not, PAY or not. It's up to us. IF we were all going to rant constantly it would be unfun, unconstructive, and an outsider would look in and think, "These guys are weird, quit playing!'

If that's small change then that's cool I'm sure any other mobile game would love my business. Try ranting in the rants section. Try trash talking with some build up that makes it worth the popcorn. Save losing it towards the end. Try trash talking the game, Pix, or the Fluffanutter way the game is played. Not highjacking a thread to. There are alot of of "try's" that are easier if Cc is followed, and old school forum protocol.
