To follow up on my previous comment, I've been monitoring the movement of War Robots on the Google top grossing revenue list (https://play.google.com/store/apps/collection/topgrossing). What I noted is that the new release did provide a bump and they moved as high as #70.
What has surprised me is that in less than a week they have already dropped down into the 90's. In the past, the bumps from new robots have lasted approximately 3 weeks. Apparently people ARE finally catching on and not paying for the new robots and gimmicks Pixonic is offering.
I expect the game will be out of the top 100 by the end of next week, continuing their predictable decline in revenue.
Pixonic is being taught the economics of the gaming business
Good gaming experience = Slowly rising sustainable revenue and growing player base
Bad gaming experience = Falling revenues and loss in player base
I think these folks at mail.ru, like Matthew Hammond, are slow learners. No worries, the market will relentlessly teach them. :)
