Oh, and energized ammo? Just, no. Terrible idea (much like the shocktrain was and is a terrible idea) so pretty much guaranteed to get into the game.

Skirmish: no option to choose bots you want.

Free-For -All: no option to choose other modes you want.

New Map: good luck finding it or getting it, and of course, no option to choose it.

Raven: with no option to choose components to progress it.

Ballista and who gives a Flux: as above, no option to choose those components.

Economy: More currencies! More keys! - they don't help with the option to choose what I want to collect / aim for.

Bug fixes: we ignored the Taran, did one that people were complaining about, and fixed another no one knew about.

So, how about those 'options'?

How about the option to block tankers?

A Customer, Pixonic is not intended to reply to these comments, these are made specifically for the players.

No doubt modules will come out long before Workshop 2.0, meaning that the P2W crowd will advance that much further than the F2P crowd. Not only that, but the BM will be saturated with components as will the 'daily deals' (which have gotten much worse recently) so good luck building the things you want.

Updated: due to the greater value of Superchest, reaching it will take slightly more resources than before.

Double the number of keys is not 'slight'. I'd hate to live in Russia if Pixonic did the weather reports. "It's slightly cold today." People would freeze to death.

How about breaking the components down in each category, as the likelihood isn't the same. Lets's take Super Chest as the example. Pix says 48.57% for Equipment(components) but from that is it 90% Storm and 0.005% Something Good?

I'll be contacting Apple for further detains about the loot boxes and the percentages, informing them that each component is, in fact, a different prize and that Pixonic haven't abided by Apple's TOS by not providing the appropriate values per item.

Yeah, like they say, "it will be easier to collect latest robots and weapons" - this just got a fuck sight harder. Components removed from Supply drops, mix and match ones from Battle Rewards - is the effort really worth 200 components of something crap and unwanted? Yet, silver remains low, Superchest just got much less useful - 1/2 a robot or component, so now we need to do it twice and hope the second time around you get the same thing. Not only that but the "latest and hottest" rewards include: storm, kumiho, gust, hover and a whole barrel of useless gear not forgetting who gives a Flux. This game gets worse with every update.

Because FFA is meant to be individual fighting, if a clan member spots another, they're more likely to work together until they're the last standing. This makes it a stupid game mode.

Clan leagues because individual leagues have worked out so well. Now the lone tankers can clan together and tank down to feed on the weaker clans.

"Q: Squad Leader drives teams to pack closely together to get bonuses. Does it mean that Shocktrain becomes a weapon of choice once again?

Squad Leader makes grouping greatly beneficial — and it actually requires a good counteraction to make it fair.

With that said — yes, Shocktrain users will be happy seeing people packed together. But this is the place we actually want to see Shocktrain: a weapon made to disrupt niche situations instead of a one-size-fits-all solution."

Well, that clears up that, shocktrain is intended to be OP and if you have this module, it becomes more OP. What a fucking stupid explanation. It already IS the one-size-fits all weapon. It requires little to no skill, it does way too much damage (go watch a bronze match v's MKii lvl 12 Shocktrains).

Q: The game already is quite complex even without modules. How do you make modules manageable for non-hardcore players?
First of all, we make every single robot (included ones you already have) equipped with the worst modules by default, so you’ll be able to have mediocre benefits even without thinking about them. Once you’re interested in deeper customization, you can switch them out and start paying for new possibilities.

Edited to be accurate.

So, it's nothing to do with 'giving older bots new life' but how can we make even more money from the new bots?

When modules were first mentioned, it was about making old bots more viable. By including new buts having module options, old bots remain useless.

It's just a whale option.

Sod modules, get WS2.0 into the game. Stop going with fluff and Tokens, get WS2.0 into the game.

So my question: as you've, ever so graciously decided to answer questions, Are modules intended to bring some semblance of balance to the game, or are they just another cash grab from the whales?

Guessing it's just you, still plenty of tanking going on, Bronze, Silver, Gold leagues on Steam are horrific with tankers.

Why waste money on a Bulwark when Haechi, Bulgusari, Spectre are so much better.

Rather than continually churning out things no one really wants, why not focus on things that will keep players, WS2.0, balanced matchmaking (which is getting worse over time as more people keep quitting the game), actual penalties for tankers - suspended accounts leading to bans, tie MKII to Master and above - it has no business being in a lower league, give an actual nerf to shocktrain, fix tarans.

And where is WS2.0? It has to be harder to code a new robot and new abilities than it is a simple workshop. Players pay some silver, wait 4 ours or so, and get a meager amount of components. Or is it taking time as you can't work out how to bleed p(l)ayers dry?

All I see is talk, "Equipment will be much easier to get" How? "Equipment will take longer to upgrade" - does that have any relation to the Silver cost, or does the silver cost stay the same?

If Silver is increased 3 fold or more, the Double Silver we get is meaningless.

"Encourage league ascending" - doubtful, Tankers find it much easier to stay in Bronze, get wins every 3 minutes or so and over a million damage every game. They have silver flooding towards them. Once again the stupidity of 'encouraging' tankers to not tank. It's been tried before and failed before. The definition of stupidity is to repeat the same action and expect a different result.

LQ - no effect on tanking. LPQ - no effect on tanking, Supply Drops - no effect on tanking, Honour Rewards - no effect on tanking, Changes to the economy, - no effect on tanking. How about actively doing something about it, like Bans.

Big fat whoooppdie doo. So I can get a bot quicker for the tankers to kill. And to help the tankers out, it'll take me longer to upgrade it, likely for 4 times the silver it would have cost. But there's hope, we'll get double silver. /sigh.

Dude, after a year of this awful league system, do you really think they're listening?

I was in Diamond, frequently fighting Experts. Now, I'm in Expert and frequently fighting Masters. The league system is fubar and has been intentionally designed to be fubar. Why, to encourage you to spend money to upgrade faster.

Why has there been little to nothing about tankers? Same thing; money. Frustrated players are either payers or leavers; Pix doesn't seem to care which.

The economy bullshit coming up is for the same reason. Grind out millions in silver to start a multi day upgrade, or pay up to buy silver and gold to finish it quickly. The claim of giving out double the silver would be fine, if it were per match and not through the boxes. Silver has been nerfed from matches quite often over various updates. They're not really giving double the silver; it's more like giving back a little of what they stole away in the first place.

As to bugs, well, either they don't know what's wrong, they don't know how to fix it, or they're hoping you'll pay out and upgrade a different weapon.

In short: Pay Payonic.

WS2.0 a year and a half late, well thanks. And after the economy changes, well, what a fucking surprise.

Of the options listed, for F2P, the main way to get something you want are the abysmal daily deals where you get one thing you want, while the other (*cough* Storm *cough*) is unwanted.

However. Daily Deals rely on Workshop 1.0, so the Daily Deals are cheaper. Yay! One good thing coming. Yet, with WS2.0 coming, will 1.0 continue or be erased from the game? My guess, it'll be erased. Then, with 2.0 the time to complete a robot or weapon will be as long as it is now, or even longer.

Don't forget the past!

Supply Drops to encourage people to not tank, Components included. Get a free bot with Supply Drops. 2 months later, components in Supply Drops were gone.

"Slight" Superchest changes, from about 5000 keys to about 13,000 keys, to compensate, keys were increased in Supply Drops. A month later a 20 - 25% reduction in Supply Drop keys.

Silver has been nerfed repeatedly, 4 or five times now. However, you can get 2 times the keys from the boxes. Well, fuck you very much.

The three times faster will last a month, maybe a bit more, then it'll be nerfed as well. But the upgrade cost and times will remain.

If there's a time to rethink how you spend your free time, that time is now.

Rather than more things added to the game, or pointless promotional stuff, how about fixing the game;

Masters and down is swamped with tankers. Two years on and the matchmaking is still garbage. I’m up in masters due to being on the losing side and being artificially pushed up due to the squadrons of tankers.

Matchmaking itself is garbage. Being in masters means I should be playing with and against masters. 50% of my matches, or more, involves chumpions. This just encourages tanking.

Gold, there should be way more ways to acquire gold. It used to be a few weapons and bots needed gold, now, there’s pilots, Mkii, way more weapons / bots, hangars (although, unless you’re spending an extra hangar is pointless due to upgrade times and silver costs)

Yet another clusterfuck from Pixonic. Also, don’t forget “numbers are quite close to what you’ll see at release”, if that’s the same as the “slight change” for the keys needed for the SuperChest, I guess the 100 components will become 10.

Battle rewards: Get 50% or less than the max of the component item being rewarded. Well, fuck you very much.

Given the length of time it takes to level anything useful up, I'll stick to getting Specters. Just levelling a few of those and the weapons to go with it will likely take years, so any interest in new shit being tossed out by Prixonic has minimal to zero interest.

summarize the results of separating game modes. Soon after the experiment's conclusion on October 1 we will learn if modes will stay separated
- They'll be merged together again as no one is buying hangars. Even though I've had next to no problems with getting matches in Domination, at most a one minute wait, they'll still be merged together.

improve matchmaking system to lower the number of uneven matches
- Doubtful, the matchmaker is designed to give out lopsided matches. The only way to have balanced matches is to go back to the hangar based league system, but that doesn't sell power, so no way this is going to make any noticeable difference.

make an unfair play ("tanking") harder, while sufficiently promoting honorable pilots
- yeah, we've heard that over and over again with no noticeable effect, LQ, LPQ, Report Form, people keep on tanking. How about day long bans, leading to a week long ban, and a final lifetime ban. Ah, but can't do that as player numbers are dropping.

run a detailed research of how upgrading times influence the economy and find the right approach to it. Update 4.4 will include a first substantial change tied to equipment upgrading pace
- in other words, how can we do it so we can get more money out of players. This isn't for the players' benefit despite what Pix want you to believe.

How about taking the game and selling it to EA, it'll work out cheaper for the players because you clearly have no idea what you're doing.

"make an unfair play ("tanking") harder, while sufficiently promoting honorable pilots"

The players don't want you to make it harder, we want you to stop it completely. Pretty sure, just making it harder won't stop anyone doing it. So whatever failed system you have in mind needs to lead to week+ long bans.

Getting an Expert - Champion mix and finding one of the 'Masters' has tanked out at the start is complete bollocks. Prevent joining a new match until the last is finished - this slows the tankers down. Institute caps on bot weapon levels in each league - Drop to Silver 1 - all your bots / weapons register as lvl 3 (if it's seen that you were previously in a high league). This might make a dent.

Going by Pix's abysmal history of trying to prevent tanking or encourage people to not tank, I fully expect some other convoluted failure of a system.

I wonder if they'll take the ingame reporting system as seriously as they did the out of game one. Multiple reports and never any action taken.

It would be easier and simpler to go back to hangar based match making.
Select hangar.
Select mode.
Start game.

Evenly balanced teams. But that doesn't generate money for Prixonic.
