There's no point even attempting to hide the fact that this game is nothing more than a 「dookie」 show anymore. I just got home, I was ready for some down time on War Robots, then I saw the new event. The same recycled bull「dookie」 prizes on the first chest, I mean, NOBODY WANTS THAT! Second chest can 「fluffernutter」 off with the exact same as last time, apart from the claw weapon or whatever it is, and when I saw the big 「fluffernutter」ing pile of 「dookie」 that is the last chest I literally nearly threw my phone. How much more obvious do they want to make it that THE GAME IS A SCAM. Bloody upgrade tokens which are impossible to get, so no more MK3 unless you have as much money as Jeff Bezos, pilot nerf as well, what next? As well as all that, creator program rewards (which have been the only thing stopping me devoting my life earnings to this godforsaken game) are getting smaller and smaller. Apparently we aren't getting the Angler, so I don't know what else there is to get.
I've just returned from a two week break, and I'm already done with it. I've already had to put a spend cap on my device, because I was out of control, now I think it's just hitting me how much money I WASTED on this 「fluffernutter」ing game. I was literally such a 「roast beef」 thinking they would get their act together and sort it out. Even the big Youtubers are beginning to pull out, one by one. A few in the creator program, plus Adrian hinting at switching to Fortnite.
I'm sick of the pressure of having to produce content on the new stuff, saying how "good" it is when it's a scam. I don't know how much longer I can go on for. I literally do not know what to do. I thought I'd rather vent here rather than on my channel, or even worse in the creator program discord to the manager which I came so so close to doing.
This is supposed to be a fun mobile game, not a casino. Pixonic, or whoever even run this game now are 「total babe」s.

i think the clincher for me to be content with my hangar, style, and place in the War Robots world, was sealed a while ago. But another nail in the coffin, was releasing a new weapon family with this new update, AND having a special edition of it ALREADY IN THE REWARDS AREA! We all are tuned into the tactics of pix, we get the new toy, then they put out the SE or LE version buffed. But to release it the same time as the original?!? That makes me red flag the hell out of their selling tactics.

Update: A lot of people got annoyed, so they are apparently sending us the Angler now... You're right in your OP buuuut (WHEN WE LEAVE SUBTLE HACKING CLANS OUT of the anguish) some things have gotten better. 1. IF IF IF you spend you can finally get enough Au or Ag to build your dream stuff and not sell your house. 2. IF you are patient you'll be able to buy a Mk2.1 Mars with 3 x M2.1 Fainters for $25 around 4 months from now. 3. If you are patient ALL SERAPHS WILL SHRIVEL UP AND DIE. (oops a self-serving rant there.) The hacking ruins just about every aspect of this game.

They will eventually get that house of yours!! 2. in 4 months, if you arent in a loony bin from all the bs, there will be something new and annoying, most likely the titan seraph to deal with 3. IF, IF seraph gets a nerf, i hope it puts the one they did to Fafnir to shame. NOTHING would be more satisfying that duck hunting those lightning bugs into oblivion. I can honestly see Oliver Kloesov , and many others, doing a happy dance ON the dead seraph carcass in a match, and I would gladly watch a highlight reel of nothing but that. Happy dance on a dead Seraph. I may need to get with some of you YT folks out there and make this happen. Gonzo style.

Just a thought:
- stop producing content
- quit creators program
- don’t spend any money at all
- enjoy what you have in the few functional matches you can find
Lmao, I have been away enjoying other stuff in life, didnt even know there was an update until BB told me. Before taking a break I was only playing a couple matches once in a while. Nobody has been hiding it, the game is really broken now, like nearly unplayable. The fact anyone keeps going just shows how addicted we are!
I have more important things to spend money on and better things to do with my time than stay in this dysfunctional relationship, so you guys will be seeing much less of me, may even just vanish again.

I understand completely, this isn't just a rant, it's the real deal. Their greed took over and are destroying the game we loved. I started playing years ago (2015) because I was looking for a substitute to play of Mech Warrior. Ended up stop playing for two years late in the Ao Jun reign (missed the whole Fafnir reign) came back, spent a fortune (because of the completely different sales structure that totally sucked me in, nickle and diming me to death). Now unfortunately the game is imploding around us and we all know this hamster wheel is speeding out of control and need to get out of this.

I already haven't spent any money since the last event, probably could have pushed and got the Unknown Seraph but my heart just wasn't in it.

Yeah man they pushed us to the limit.
For me it was the upgrade tokens (last straw).
Removal of play store coupons, although only 3 bucks, least it was something, but taking that 3 bucks away wasn't alot but it was the principle.
Other changes with leaderboard and operations, these already had issues now they have issues x10
Boosters ... this one bugs me.. not just me but what it did to the whole game and my friends playing it. This is some low down bull 「dookie」 for them to come up with in the first place (greedy 「fluffernutter」s)
Hackers and how they address this problem. Hit a guy yesterday and hit a guy with full clip mk3 x4 cudgels (no shield on, not flying) direct hit this Seraph account from China recorded no damage .. it was a full khepri clip.. Definitely have trust issues with the game, other players and Pixonic ability to resolve or want to resolve these issues properly.
So yeah, it's over the top greed and take aways.

I find myself playing less and less. even the time drops are becoming less fun due to inability to drop with others of similar strength hangars. ran 3 this morning before work, and i just set the ipad down, and talked to my cat, it was THAT bad. my cat enjoyed the attention though. I think i may take your train of thought on this and back off the game a bit and enjoy life around me a bit more, or at least find other more enjoyable things to waste my time on.

Snorting a bucket of rock salt would be more fun than the games I've subjected myself to over the last 24 hours. i mean, i get they are trying to do some stellar things in the game, but honestly, ITS A GAME!! if i wanted a math class i would go back to school. i can follow most times the percentages and this and that, but its bordering on TOO MUCH! not to mention, its a game, so its entertainment. not a math class, not a structure to make you feel worthless cause you lose, but they want money so you upgrade, you spend. THATS why i went one route, all spiders, and focused my fun there. I still study all the other bots i see naturally. but i play to enjoy, not get a math lesson in percentages and all that, and definitely not to get my wallet open. People have complained to me about my hangar and the levels it has and all that. And i have to remind folks all the time, i run ONLY SPIDERS. Do i keep my winnings, for sure, i have at least one of everything there is, from winning this or that. So literally i sell 75-85% of most extra stuff just because i have so much. I have leveled enough stuff I could confidently run 2 solid hangars of spiders, either all invaders, or a mix, and still be competitive in modern games. But I am not going to subject myself to letting a game of all things make me feel bad and let that emotion fester. We are all grown 「bum-bum」 adults, this is a game.

i mean, i get they are trying to do some stellar things in the game What are these stellar things they're trying to do? I'm being serious. I don't get it. just more modernized bot designs, abilities, skills and modules. I have a degree from an art school for computer animation, so I was surrounded by gamers alot. Granted I got out of that and am now in medicine, but I still watch my nephew play games. So instead of boxy looking robots and stuff, now they have more aesthetic and eye candy appealing robots that are sleek, fun, pretty to look at, and do wild things with weapons. Its on par for us older folk watching things like the original 8 bit atari morph into Nintendo with 16 and 32 bit graphics, and so on. The more technology and ideas grow, the more they push the envelope of design and mechanics. Khepri, looks like afloating turd or egg, but its a beast. But the point being, there will always be a new "nuisance" around the corner evetime. But its pushing folks away at an alarming rate.

I don't disagree; the animations are certainly prettier.
Still. Lipstick on a pig, farts and calling it blowing kisses, 「dookie」 vs Shinola, etc. Their priorities are 「fluffernutter」ed up.

Well, if I wasnt in such a disciplined space about it, I would just do that. Since Im not in a clan, dont squad, and almost never play, I pop in very randomly for a few matches, like less than a half hour once in a while, there is no incentive or interest whatsoever in spending ever again. I sometimes land a few matches that are kind fun, but mostly app performance and other game breaking issues are so in my face I usually just laugh and close the app after the quick fix

Another issue I am having, and this may be the biggest one - I'm borderline master 1 - champion so I'm essentially playing champion players in every game usually there are guys 3000 and 4000 cups above me.. but the biggest problem is by far the Seraph, Can't kill it in the air, and now they have more stuff (mothership modules) that basically making it near impossible to kill on the ground.. What is the point of playing. Ill try my typhoon again see if I can get production from it... But this is what people are really getting sick of (least those in my clan that has spoken out).

For me it is not at all about leveled/balanced matches, as all my gear is mostly maxed. It is extremely poor app performance that is the biggest issue for me - the omipresence of severe lag and its impact. The gameplay is not smooth enough frequently enough to be enjoyable as in the past, and I know it is not my device or connectivity that is at fault. Anyways, stepping back has been awesome. Probably gonna be a while before I even update the app tbh

Its really not worth the headache to continue to be a every day player. I am thinking about limiting it to the friday nite drops, and maybe from time to time throughout the week on a schedule. I have been in squads much more lately with Oliver Kloesov in the morning, and those are much better than running solo at that time, even if I am in a much more aggressive game and more powerful reds. Its time to work on my beach body for next year i guess. haha

so anyway, I was a dip「dookie」 and spent about 15 bucks on the 4000 token offer.
In that timeframe which was over a week I won like 5 hazards(shards), 3 Fainters(shards) and 3 Seraphs(shards) sold them of course but just kinda shows where their head is at.
So I am done spending(my wife will appreciate that).
The game has pushed the boundaries every update and sooner or later they will do one that pisses people off enough to slow down or stop. MK3 tokens..「whiskey tango foxtrot」??
I have said this before when a GAME becomes a job and its time to do something else.
Oddly i am "this close" to hitting Champs again which was a goal of mine when I came back. I at this point, really dont care. Knowing that I wont be able to match firepower on half my gear thanks to MK3 tokens.
