I’ve been grinding the event chests and to be honest, I got good loot. 3 stalkers, 2 docs, 1 Gareth, and so on. Drop rates improved for things in my opinion. Upgrade times being longer is fine as it can be solved with gold and gold isn’t the hardest thing to get. Components used to be impossible or way too hard to get before the anniversary event but now they’re kinda reasonable with the event going on. I say that being able get new slightly OP weapons and robots faster is a fair deal in exchange for some upgrade time rebalances. War robots used to be extremely pay to win but this new update will make it maybe 5-10% better of a game than before. Depends on how they take it. Had this game since the time when desterier and Gepard had different models. I stil do enjoy the game and hope it improves even further.
If I were to say a negative about the new tweak for upgrade times, I’d say that it’ll increase the gap between new players and veterans by a bit. Should be fine as they don’t go overboard with it though.
I agree with the part about increasing flexibility with clans.
However, about king of the hill, I do see that many players hate or dislike it (I myself see it as my least favorite mode) but then again, it’s all down to preference and the mode wasn’t so hideous after playing 20+ rounds of it. So maybe implementing a system where you can choose multiple game modes that you are willing to be put into might be a good idea. Although it should have a warning that says decreasing choice of modes will increase wait time significantly.
