Hello, I am glad you buffed the molot. I want to mention a couple things that I hope the devs will consider.

1- I agree with Locust and I Smell BS. The current matchmaking is flawed and is causing many problems for players. I have been playing for about 3-4 years, but I am not wealthy and thus my hanger is full of level 7-10 robots and level 5-9 weapons and I am diamond league. Often times (meaning 50% or more) I find myself against Mk2 robots and weapons. Although I manage it is really annoying to be matched against opponents that have much stronger bots and weapons. My main issue is that often (50% Or more) at least 1 or 2 of my teammates or opponents leave at the start of a battle. I know this point has been made by others, but I wanted to bring it to focus again. Honestly I feel really bad for new players due to the long upgrade times, multiple currencies, imbalance and because of all the trolls.

2- I've been playing WR for years, yet I don't have a single mk2 robot or weapon. I know I could have 1 or 2 mk2 at this point, but then my hanger would have far less diversity and the others would be less upgraded. The point is that I believe the upgrade times are far too long for the higher tier upgrades. In my opinion, there should be more ways to speed up upgrades without having to spend gold or watch ads. I never speed up my upgrade times with ads because if I do I don't make as much progress for the super chest. After playing for years i feel like I should have several mk2 weapons, but that is not the case. Adding new weapons and robots has made this problem worse... Just saying...

3- The last point I'd like to make is about the cost of everything. At first the component system really bothered me and it still does a bit, but it does seem to work ok. The main problem with it is that there is no way to buy components directly from the store or transfer extra unneeded components for different components or currencies. The component system aside, another improvement I'd like to see is with the special deals, which honestly are more like the worst deals.
- let's take a look at the math: Currently there is a deal for 280 ST and 480 Arbalest components for 1200 Workshop points (can be bought only 2 times). These numbers won't be perfect, bear with me. Okay, so if I wanted to get the ST then I'd have to purchase this deal about 35 times to get the full 10k components. At the price of 1200 Workshop points, which is supposedly a discount, I'd have to spend about 45,000 points to obtain the Weapon. I'd potentially get 2 Arbalest as well, however what if I don't want an arbalest? Having to wait for the deal to come back is terrible, so even if I had saved up 45k points for it then I can't get the weapon without waiting a lot first. All in all I'd say the prices and and upgrade times are too extreme. 45k WP is a lot! I can buy a Fujin for 15k WP, so 45k for a weapon seems excessive by a lot. Anyone else agree?

I can't help but agree that it seems Pixonic is aiming for Pay 2 play, but I'll keep playing for a while to see if they can fix these issues.

The new weapons and bots are awesome, I just hope the old weapons and robots won't become obsolete. I'd recommend tuning up old bots and weapons to be comparable to the new ones, balance is key please remember that Pixonic. Perhaps increasing all robot structural points would help, light robots too weak now with the new matchmaking, bots, and weapons. Perhaps give old robots new abilities.

No weapon should be able to bypass physical and energy shields in my opinion.

Maybe there should be a energy shield that blocks energy instead of physical. I've got more ideas, but first I'd like to see where things go.

I hope you guys decide to cater to your veteran players and the poor. Thanks for listening!

Well, just about everyone's got it right. I've been playing war robots for several years and I am really disappointed with the direction pixonic took. Truly, it's pretty much impossible to unlock anything new, it's terrible that players cannot pick the game mode they want, and the events are pointless because the rewards are repetitive and expensive.

This game needs changes:
1- Get rid of the casino events.
2- Make components available to buy from store for gold, silver or factory points. Including Components for Jesse, Doc, and Butch.
3- Give players the option of what game mode they'd like to play.
4- Take timer off of events and challenges, especially the super chest.
5- Add rewards for completing a battle. More gold and keys, components, chests, or extra factory points.
6- Make goals/tasks better. Give players choice of rewards for completing a task, give better rewards, or get rid of tasks and just improve rewards for completing battles extensively.
7- Get rid of Shocktrain... or reduce its range or damage or both.
8- Reduce time it takes for upgrades.
9- Make old robots viable again. Example: Give Destrier a dash, a shield, or something. You get the point.
10- Give better rewards to premium players. For example: Premium players should get; 2x rewards from battles (which should give at least 10 gold for last place, chests, ect...), 100-300 gold a day or something, and 2x factory point production. Stuff like that. Premium is currently useless, just like silver. If premium was worth it everyone would buy it, but they don't because it sucks..
11- Make multiple hangers available for free or at least dramatically reduce the gold costs for hangers and 5th robot slots.
12- Make tasks singular and stop giving silver as a reward... seriously. Players get plenty of silver for finishing battles. Tasks shouldn't be 5 part tasks that give silver (useless silver) as a reward for 4 out of 5 challenges. Then the reward for part 5 is a weapon or robot that is old, cheap, or redundant. There are never any components or new weapons or bots. Rewards for finishing tasks should be gold, factory points, components, or new weapons/bots like Jesse, Galahad, Doc, Lancelot, Haechi, Redeemer, Scourge, Tempest ectera ect..., Upgrade time reductions, factory point production increases, and so on...

Players should be rewarded for good gameplay and for completing battles first and foremost and not for how much money they have and how lucky they are.

There are so many ways it could be done better.

Good additions to gameplay would be a welcome change too. In battle pick ups (health, shield regen, raster ammo reload, ect...), frontal Ecu, medium weapon ancile, more robot upgrade options; interactable, dynamic, strategic elements to maps (Doors that open and close, barriers that spin or move, turret or shield positions that can be captured, ect...).

Yes to 1-12

No to casino/royale, bad reward systems, time limits, extremely long upgrades, and useless store/tasks/silver.

Hear us Pixonic! Let there be proper change.

Medic robots would be cool. Robots that heal structural points for other robots. Think about it :)

Add more access to guns/robots, more control over rewards and gameplay, and make it easier to upgrade please!
