Here's the GLORY BEHEMOTH video: ua-cam.com/video/lXvmMJK8kXI/v-deo.html
making it easier for f2p to get the stuff they needed
Manni I want the musics u used in these video
Hi Manni
only think pigsonic does is make a meta, sell as much as possible, then nerf it when new meta is coming. they only care about money and you are promoting such a game. think about it.
Pls someone tell me the name of the music playing at 12:35. Plsssss
You are exactly right with the word "EXHAUSTING". They forgot it's a game, something that we should play to relax and have fun! Not to strain our eyes, fingers and mental health and also a maintain PhD degree in the ever increasing game mechanics' complexity to keep up with the game lmaoo
yes you are right
How does this affect mental health?
@@mahangaberryman6763 ragging;-;
This was also a perfect summary right there bud ;🙂
Aggreed
I usually don’t aggre with Manni complaints, but he’s 100% accurate. The meta from Master III up is annoying and exhausting.
Good to hear your thoughts as well, thanks 👍
Even in Expert League it is annoying. A while back I spent a lot of money on the Hawk and the Ares, only for the Hawk to be nerfed into oblivion and the Ares to fall out of the meta. It's quite annoying to have to constantly switch out your robots and weapons every time they add something new, and it is also a hassle to have to figure out which combination of weapons/drones/microchips/motherships/pilot skills you need to have a good hangar. It also doesn't make much sense that, when I start a match with my Orochi to get beacons, that everyone else already has a maxed out Skyros. I really don't like where Pixonic is headed with this game.
@@RogatkaWR I've experienced something similar with Fafnir: it was the very first bot I spent real money on and I got him and the frozen ray guns all the way up to MK2-12, just to see all of them nerfed into complete uselessness. And it was clear it was nerfed that hard only to create an opening to sell more Siren/Harpy. The game prices are way too high to keep reassessing your hangar every 2 months, it's outrageous.
Ohhhhh Pixonic going to heard they already bringing a new broken Titan
@@ManniGaming nobody use old weapons because they are useless orkan useless cryo weapons useless trident useless and robots like specter useless Orochi useless Ao Jun useless because nerf maybe if payxonic stop nerfing things to oblivion
Very accurate video Manni.
If they hadn't nerfed Fafnir we would never see groups of Khepries running around so freely. It just doesn't have an effective counter at the moment so people are running multiples of those. It was fine when released actually because other meta around it like Fafnir and Revenant were quite powerful too. With their nerf and the addition of second Khepri pilot which unlocked crazy drone chip boosts made it unstoppable and top 1 meta basically.
P.S: Fafnir's built in weapon accumulation nerf was acceptable but the huge flight speed nerf really killed it in my opinion.
True.
I think Fafnir needed a speed nerf, but slowing him down too much wa terrible for the robot. Similar to the Orochis, the stealth is the solution to the low health that the robot has, but the nerf complicate too much to use this good robot.
I wanted one or the other (speed nerf not damage or damage nerf not speed) but sadly fafnir got both speed and damage nerfed 😑
We need to share this with pixo somehow. Through discord or reddit or whatever we need them to know
I'm stopping playing this game and unfollow all youtuber just because pixonic too fast make a transition change and releasing something new which is meta and nerfing there and there...this is not healthy game Aygir
In the old days, the game was about planning.
There was only an energy shield and physical shield and a Stalker with stealth, a Fury and Lancelot.
Now it's about teleporting, pumping real money, equipping as much meta as you possibly can and the game basically requires no braincells to play today.
Edit: thx for almost 40 likes evevryone :)
And a little correction for the people replying to my comment.
You could buy Lancelot only for 5k gold in the old good days but today, you can buy COMPONENTS for 5k gold.
You know what i mean?
Yep another great game got infected with p2w same with pixel gun 3d they got infected with p2w and many other games too
@@iaminurwalls125 pixel gun 3d is not p2w though, its problem are heavy spammers and 3 cat spamming
@@hadinhngo4790 you should know people can get mythic weopens easily now and people who grind will go to waste by some dude who just brought every thing and the dude who grind so hard keeps dying. Happened to me
@@iaminurwalls125 pg3d isn't p2w and also why is it bad thing its easy to get mythical weapons easier than before?
I think Lancelot used to cost gold/silver, but now they changed it so you can only get it with components.
It is exhausting.
First few minutes of the game: This combo of eternal 70% additional damage due to the pilot and drone combo, high speed which makes them impossible to hit, stacked resistance which makes fights sluggish and a mothership strike that slows you to the point where you CAN NOT turn for 10 SECONDS. 6 players using them.
Rest of the game: Endless Murometz players launching up and obliterating everything with blinding lazers or hoover weapons. You expose yourself for ONE second and you're blinded for the next 5 seconds, also 3/4 of your health is gone.
This needs to be fixed. Almost every legend league player has 3 khepris in their hangar. The only thing strong enough to bust a hole in them are the explosive shotguns, which are hard to acquire.
Exactly!👍
Exactly, deleted in seconds with that setup on Murometz, the stupidity of that whole concept. Personally I don't play this game as much anymore and I "certainly" don't support it anymore either because of the current meta Pixonic has brought in and the constant Nerf's to bots weapons that I spent real money on (my choice) to upgrade over the years, "Every Single Bot or Weapon" I upgraded has been Nerf'd, Now their Nerfing the outdated Titan Tsars weapon that no one uses (except myself) That was an "expensive" upgrade. No more. This game is a death by a thousand cuts. My personal views.
And don’t forget I tried playing again SILVER LEAGUE IM FIGHTING MK3 FAFNIRS
@@Blitz_maniac That's ridiculous, Silver shouldn't be anywhere near MK3 players..
Well with nowadays offers you can get a lot of the explo shotguns with only about 15usd
But then again you should be able to get atleast one is each without paying, which you can't :/
I honestly miss the days where one mistake costed you your bot. Now, everyone has insane amounts of resistance, battleship shields, and drone shields. They pretty much killed most bots that relied on quick, instant damage to take enemies down.
I feel you. WR should should cease thier business. They're so much greedy on money. The game became lust for money. The never-ending nerf doesn't stop even though players worldwide paid for real money. The lags are becoming worst and worst. People should stop playing this game if they really want to end this nightmare from these greedy developers.
I feel like we need a general nerf. The Khepri is a great example. It’s as bad as the bendy bullets. It requires low skill, and performs great all the time. The bendy bullets are just dumb. Behemoths have been buffed to keep up with the meta, the new titan weapons are just point in general direction and destroy. Revenants are unkillable, sirens and harpies are too powerful, the deft survivor is broken. I honestly think the current meta is worse than the spectre meta, the ravana shotgun meta, the ao jun meta, the drone meta, the ao Ming meta, the fafnir meta. You have to grind soo much just to keep up.
Fully agree with all this. I used to love the game as a F2P player a few years ago, tried playing again recently and the game is simply unplayable, even in the lowest leagues!! What annoys me the most is how obvious it is that pixonic is doing all this on purpose because they know releasing a way overpowered meta robot is the best way to force everyone to spend all their life savings to obtain it by making the game unplayable if you do not have it...
Yes! I got to champs as a f2p, but after like 1-3 months of not playing, I was back to expert 1 and can't even get back up.
Agree. Even Fafnir meta was so much fun than the FREAKIN' KHEPRI META. Today's meta is too boring.
Sadly that’s how the game is, I miss the old days when you could use any robot and it was good, plus I support you Manni and I don’t think what you say is negative, I actually appreciate what you say and always take it into consideration!
Thanks Crow! Yes, I try to but if it gets too much about it - it will be seen as negative.
I have always said Pixonic should only allow one robot type per hanger. This will stop seeing hangers with multiple same bots
Nah dawg I like my hanger full of fenri
Impossible, It's all about money. Pigsonic only care about money
@@vladthedude7231 another broken bot
I keep two Hades two kephyri and one Fenrir for holding beacons.
Well I understand the point, but don't agree. I'm a very old War Robots veteran and play a Full Raven hangar. That would make me quit the game for sure. It's hard enough for me to fight against the meta and stronger bots, but still gone use my Ravens for a long time. Greetings from Capt.LONGANIZA leader of the HELL DOG'S
I personally think they should put a handicap on the hangars. I believe while having a Khepri in your hangar can be useful, maybe a Siren, or a harpy, but they should limit so that you can't go using more than one of the same robot in a hangar
I think Mech Arena solved this issue by allowing only one bot of the same type in a hangar.
@@LuqSkywkr It's been a while since I've played that game too
Yes! I don’t think people would find it annoying or unatural. When i first started this game about 1 year ago, i honestly believed you could not have 2 of the same in your hangar. I got so confused when i was able to equip two of the samr in my hangar and for a short confusing moment i even thought it was a bug. I think also a great way to make the game more balanced and more fun is too just start DELETING stuff. Motherships does not make the game more fun, it’s complicted and it makes the game slower with 250k aegis and 50% recistance with that. Simpy Nerfing drones, making bots good at one or two things only, removing motherships would make the game so much more relaxed and simply calmer. It alot to ask of pixonic but if that,is what the community wants pixonic should not deny us that!
@@LuqSkywkr yes they fixed it
Thank you Manni for making this video and having this talk I hope Pixonic finally listens. I played the game for 5 years free to play and finally had to stop at the highest league because lags and overpowered new robots and items was simply making the game not fun. I recently made a new account and hve began playing again but WR relies so heavily in the beginning on watching ads if you dont want to spend money that it takes forever to do things.
Have watched your channel for at least 6 years now and truly think you're a very talented, sociable UA-camr
Keep up the great work!
This happens when they give 450000 hp to a robot which is small , fast moving, having 4 weapon slot and very op ability . Khepri shud have 250000 hp only
I mean, my khepri is at 505k...
See it'd make sense for slow tanky robots like Invader and Fenrir. But Khepri is fast and unpredictable af
250000 is too much! At least 180000.
Why? because Kephri is a support bot, and should be useless if not used right, like Demeter, Nodens, Weyland, Mender, and Tyr.
@@Mannifan801 Thats a good point, Demeter and Mender are really easy to kill if you dont play it well
@@fernandoplaza8818 Glad to know you share the same opinion as me.
its been a year since i last played war robots, and i noticed manni’s video on that time is already about him being concerned and complaining that the game will completely fall quickly if pixonic continued the same update thing, i myself noticed the toxicity of the updates and p2w players, i was there when the weyland and mender got added and the game was so PEACEFUL and fun, no matter the robot and the weapon you can find a way to rock it, and the strategies and tactics are so fun to exploit, even a cossack can dish damage and outplay and capture beacons albeit it still can’t kill, the energy lockdown shotguns, aries, leech, and ao jun is the start of extreme unfairness and overpoweredness in war robots where there is literally no counter once they used their abilities, because even if there is it will just overpower its weakness but still they are easy to kill once their abilities went on cooldown, this is also the start of p2w players start taking over the entire game but still f2p can fight back and have fun, then there is the ravana, which singlehandedly DESTROYED the game, one fully maxed storm ravana can solo the entire enemy team even with titans and there is ABSOLUTELY no counter against it other than another ravana, on my time p2w players are pretty impossible to defeat but you can survive long enough or win the game by a massive outplay plus fun still exist even if you are completely dominated and lost the match, now based on manni’s videos both team and everything is on a close intense battle, every player has atleast invested money and most loadouts come from free luck and money other than hard grind, everyone is in a deadlock of intense and unstoppable brawl which is very exhausting, boring, stressful, pointless, and no fun on the players side, of you spend money on it what is the point of winning or grinding for rewards? you can’t have fun either because every fight is a stressful intense deadlock then add the lag, you can’t quit the game either because of its potential and the amounts of money you will waste. i think the game is a massive potential but becomes too much its essentially a big pile of trash with everyone trying to enjoy the wasted potential.
As a expert league player the biggest problem I have is with tankers like I can't really kill someone with maxed hanger with lvl 8 weps and bots also I reason why I stoped playing squads is because Everytime I try to squad with clanmates I end up against a full mk3 hanger players who drop them selfs to low leagues it's kinda annoying even when I report them nothing happens also some other annoying stuff like shields I had an idea of it like the shield only triggers 1 time per battle like when you reach 50%hp or smt like that but overall WR is great game it would be greater with some changes :)
I agree with you speedy, I'm only in expert league 2 and 3. I've come across so many players with mk3 robots and mk3 weapons doing x2 as much damage as the whole match and they are in the same league
I'm so glad you said all this Manni, 100% agree. I can only play 2 games 2 or 3 times a day because it's so frustrating & exhausting. Thanks again for making sure Pixonic knows all this and PLEASE, GET RID OF THOSE STUPID SHEILDS..
Drones are the problem, pixo should either nerf the drones or just remove them. Drones spoil the gameplay bc of the shields the heals the ressitance etc. So i think drones wre the main problem and pixo should do something about it
Im totally agreeing with you..
Drones are way too op but also Unnecessary
Pixo did those metas on purpose so that players would pay more and they succeeded
This, factual, imo they should just remove drone chips and tweak the drone abilities a bit.
I hate drones and airstrikes if pixonic just removed them the game would be so much more enjoyable also I have pretty good drones too and they just aren’t even fun to play bc of all the absorber shields popping up every 5 seconds
downloaded the game and on level 24, seeing the drone effects here in youtube makes me wanna go back to beginner phase, having simpler fights vs Gl. Pattern and Phalanx stuff and not suffer those purple shields bullshit .
Still enjoying it, spent 6$ for full hangar and hawk for now to beacon runs but I guess ill just have to quit it .
feels bad man, if only people didn't spent money on drones.. the game devs won't delete something people invested in
I just want 2016-2018 War Robots back, when the meta was fun, when there wasn't any of the annoying titans, pilots, and drones, when you couldn't just buy the best robot. In my opinion, this was War Robots prime and I can remember spending hours playing with my mates back in 2017 and having heaps of fun.
This is so true and a way to fix it to how it was “good” during the ‘spectre era’ would be get rid of deft/clever survivor, get rid of drones, and lower the damage output of dazzler, lantern, pantagruel, and gargantua. Those are the overpowered thing that I would not miss, I stopped playing khepris bc they’re too annoying to deal with, I play stuff that I wouldn’t mind fighting against but I’m destroyed quickly if I’m not running meta drones which is VERY ANNOYING!!
I'VE BEEN PLAYING WAR ROBOTS SINCE 2015 AND I'VE SEEN ALL THE UPS AND DOWNS OF THE GAME. AND IT REALLY IS NOT THAT FUN TO PLAY NOW HOW MUCH IT USED TO BE BACK IN THE DAYS. WE USED TO PLAY VARY CAREFULY AND STRATEGICALLY GOING FOR THE CENTER BECON REQUIRED A LOT OF THINKING. BUT NOWDAYS 15 SECOND INTO THE GAME AND THE CENTER IS ALREADY TAKEN BY A SKYROSS. PEOPLE JUST BRAWL IN WITHOUT THINKING ABOUT IT CAUSE THEY KNOW THEY HAVE THE BEST STUFF THEY CAN BEAT ANYONE. AND THE LAGS ARE JUST ANNOYING AS HECK. AND THIS RUINS THE EXPERIENCE OF THOSE WHO DON'T INVEST IN THE GAME. AND ALSO MANNI BRO I'VE BEEN WATCHING YOU SINCE 2015 HUGE FAN I LOVE YOUR CONTENT. KEEP IT UPU BRO 400K SOON.❤❤
Proud of you manni for being honest.
the best part: the legendary pilot prevents khepri from being suppressed, lockdown and freeze. there's no way to aim at it
That only works if khepri running it’s ability do you have time to take it out
@@battlestar1788 yes but for 15 seconds duration and 7 second cool down
@@bamboo1763 it should be the reverse I always thought the cool down was too quick before we found out that it would be meta.
@@halfasian3306 sorry for vague description by i do mean that 7 seconds cooldown for 15 seconds duration is too short
One of your best vids💪. I am in champs for 4 years now and it was always no joke😅, but in all those glass cannon metas like Ares, Ao Jun, leech you still needed to time somehow your abilities and movements. Now you more or less just run into the other and dance forever. Like you well summarized, it is exhausting. And btw i am no f2p player
Motherhips that heal hundreds or thousands of health and provide half of million of aegis shield. Drones that allow you to be invincible half of the time. Modules and pilots that allow you to annihilate robots in 3 seconds. Robots that can survive for 5 minutes being shot at by the entire team. Guns that ignore cover and shoot you around the corner. Weapons and robots costing hundreds of dollars just max out. Premium content getting nerfed into the ground every half a year. *That's War Robots*
Suggestions:
Refund and remove drones
Refund and remove airstrikes
Stop adding broken weapons & robots that either dominate or get nerfed into uselessness
Make matchmaking based on the average level of robots and weapons, the amount of times I’ve gone into games where there are loads of people with lvl10+ to MK3 items and I’m at lvl6-7 makes the game less fun for me
And add good ways to get resources instead of p2w everything
Agree
This is why in my opinion, Mech Arena seems to be having an edge over War Robots. I might be wrong, but it is less exhausting playing Mech Arena than War Robots.
@@battlestarducklactica6823 is mech arena available on pc?
Manni, you said exactly what I would say about what is happening to War Robots. In my opinion, the game is losing the essence of the old school combat and turning into an annoying and exhausting matches everyday.
I feel like they have gone past the point of no return. I dont think there is a possibility of getting back to a balanced game. That is why i stopped playing ages ago.
They for sure can.. stop nerfing everything that way multiple items and robots in the game is broken.. to give you verity.. also the shields HAVEEEEEE TO GOOOOO they must if they want this game to be healthy and enjoyable
Thanks manni for opening up to this problem. it really is frustrating now to play war robots with all the ptw players and meta
“Imagine aiming perfectly for 3 minutes straight”
*challenge accepted*
Lag: Allow us to introduce ourselves
The Drone and Mothership features are the one that ruin War Robots game itself
The amount of times I saw your HP go from 230-300K is just mind blowing.
Expert league is absolutely AWFUL in this meta. Northlight shields that have more than twice the health of my own weapons, my puny weapons taking upwards of 3 minutes the break that shield, and the rest of the match to put a dent into the robot hiding behind it. Luckily I had the foresight to make 4/6 of my robots supports instead of damage dealers
I agree with what he said about seraph. I think it’s perfectly balanced. It one of my favorite robots and I’m so glad I got it so early
I disagree, respectfully. Seraph is a nightmare to kill!
@@MrAaronBrown1 if u catch it on the ground it’s dead
For anyone wondering, it took manni 1 minute and 19 seconds to kill one kephri with his revenant in the second game on Springfield. That's crazy to me lol
I feel like a new update that would be so dope is if in the stats after the match it can show how much damage each robot did that match. It would also be good for showing newer robots to see how much damage they actually did.
Bot
@@freekraccbacc I’m just copy and pasting
Here's the thing . Whenever new weapons and bots come out it's the same thing. Ppl complain how they're OP and it's either sink or swim. U either buck up and spend money (which is what they want) or ur screwed..
I've been playing since the beginning it's always been this way.
The meta has shifted so much since the beginning
The worst thing is the enemy is shooting you with full power but you cannot do anything and let your poor Nodens and other robots die. Just because you are spawn raided by Luchador with blinding weapons and a Khepri support...
You can't fight them...
Everytime this combo lands on battlefield, the game becomes over and the entire players are just useless and jobless that time... They both can ruin the entire game.
I appreciate your opinion. I think drones were a cool idea, but just drop purple shields and they will probably be fine. With every new bot I feel like I wasted my time.. I miss my bulwark, but it's suicide to run it. The game is spiraling into absurdity with instant kills or immortals. Not to mention tankers.
And those bendy bullets
All bots and weapons should be easy to obtain and old robots should also perform well in order to make a balanced game !!
Manni, I've been playing War Robots and watching your videos from just about day 1, you are 100% right. There are SIGNIFICANT differences between someone who pays and someone who doesn't. If you don't pay, you have to play for hours everyday otherwise you will never have a good hangar and when you finally do get something that is decent, all of your bots are totally obsolete. Regardless, even with these struggles and differences, it is still rather competitive and very fun to play. I think this is what Pixonic gets right. I don't have experience in the top level leagues (I'd assume most players in these higher leagues pay) but from your videos, and even Adrian's videos, it does appear rather boring. As Beacon Rush does seem to be the popular choice for game modes, in Meta, you are focused more on eliminating bots than actually capturing beacons so what's the point? I believe it should be easier for someone who doesn't pay or play frequently to rise up but still be challenging. The current state of War Robots makes this nearly impossible. I only play for about an hour daily and this is not enough to do anything but I can't sit on my phone for multiple hours dedicated to playing War Robots. Every now and then I will drop $20 on the game but even that doesn't do much. If I want a good titan totally leveled up, I would have to spend about $100 (or more) just to get my titan to max level. Then other upgrades require specific currency that is based on "luck" which Pixonic unfairly defines anyway. It's difficult to get some currencies and then Pixonic forces you to use more of that currency to get certain prizes that truthfully are not based on luck, rather is based on how many times you spend. Pixonic definitely favors pay to win but they should also reward players who don't pay a little more, make it just a little easier to invest your time to level up.
I can’t remember the last time I botted out in a match. In fact, I usually only use my two Revenants and my Murometz in most games. My point is that what’s the point in a variety hangar? I miss that.
It was such a fun game a few years ago when there wasn't so much going on.
Old School Mode would be nice. Less is more!
Such a BIG pay to win aspect. I have been currently spending about $40 to $100 dollars A DAY on War Robots and I am serious, 100% true, not lying at all. I have a Khepri with homing bullets, 2 Orochi's, 1 with homing bullets, 1 with Incinerator, 1 Fafnir with homing bullets, 1 Scorpion with Rime and Cryo and a Murometz Titan with the blinding effect guns in my hanger. I have probably every "Legendary" bot out there but I only play these 5 because I can upgrade any others any higher. Even with spending this much, nothing is MK2 even. I have some gun lvl11, everything else lvl10. My titan almost maxed. I have the Monarch battleship fully maxed at least. All my bots have their "Best" Legendary pilot and all pilots are lvl50 to lvl60. I am a FULL Pay to Win player. I was a Free to Player for so long and I hated it but couldn't find games like WR so I broke my code and became a full p2p player. I have seen the difference immediately, fighting with khepri is easy, I have pilot that gives it immunity to lock down, suppression, and freeze during its ability. I can easy go to the enemy spawn and fight the entire team because I am only in Master league 1. Occasionally, I fight champions (Meta Buyers) and they put me in my place real fast. I can spend over $300 to $400 a week and still can't max stuff out because Silver just goes so fast. I do win about 500k to 1M silver each battle and when guns cost 50M+ to upgrade, it's becomes a bit ridiculous. TELL ME PLEASE!!!!!! Is War Robots for the Rich? How do all these UA-camrs have their own accounts with MK3 everything? Good thing I have a good job but if I didn't, I'd be broke in a heart beat.
the reason why i play wr quite little now is bacause in my middle league, there are always some with over powered things that ends the game in like 4min. its quite frastrating to load in a game and immediately get destroyed.
same here i am in silver league1 and i get slothered by ahrpy siren orochi fafnir kepri murometz and luchador lol
i got an orochi for free from the operation pass
This is the Reason why I don't Play Team Modes.
Since the Khepri is alot weaker in FFA
But still quite insane don't you think?
I’ve been playing War Robots for almost 8 years now, and it is very frustrating. It is very annoying to fight most of the meta robots nowadays, I have robots that can easily take out Khepris without loosing 20% hp but it still takes 3 minutes to kill one Khepri. But I love this game too much, and I’ve been here too long to leave so I’ll stay. But there are many changes I would like to see in the future. 👍
I miss the Walking War Robots days. :(
I admire your masochism
I'm in Master league III and I have been for a really long time, like over a year. only reason why I can't go up a league is because of the meta. I'm constantly fighting champion league players that always have over 9000 trophies, and I only have 2 Mk3 robots, and 4 Mk2 robots under level Mk2 level 6, and no weapons above Mk2 level. so, I have an underpowered hanger, that goes up against champs, all day long. my victories say 52%, but in reality, its somewhere between 20% - 25%. it's just so... nuts to play this directly to have fun, its near impossible. not to mention trying to mess around with old goofy weapons to have a fun time, or leveling up robots, because your either getting blinded every second, fighting a tank every second, shooting an aegis shield that immediately turns to an absorber shield for no reason at all, or getting killed by airstrikes. trying to have fun in War robots is non-existent anymore. it's not even War robots, it's just... Meta bots, in your face all the time. just always losing, number 6th on the team, with only 1,000,000 damage dealt. and Pixonic just keeps adding these crazy bots and weapons that have absolutely no actual work and balance put into them, and then say it's totally balanced, and refuse to change it for half a year, meanwhile the player base is suffering from playing a severely unbalanced game. That is a lot to say, but this is just a summary of how dumb the game is. and I could go way into detail about everything unfun in the game.
12:22 yes this is a good example on how things should be!
The Khepri is literally Light + Medium + Heavy Tanker all in one.
Hi Manni, I totaly agree with you but you forgot the damn blinding weapons. I decided for my self to Run old Robots with new weapons or verse wise or old weapons on old Bots. So I can only compete with masterleague III or expert League I but IT makes definetly more fun.
I think the true enemy is the shields and drones and pilot skills being so insanely op and having to be reduced.
Hello 👋🏽 Manni
🤔Khepri is over power 😤
Hey Manni the new legendary pilot for the Seraph is Victoria B. Her ability is upon flight seraph gains increased ability duration & flight speed…
There should be a be limit two the amount of each bot we can have in hanger it's boring facing 4 kepri Hanger's the gravfty amp as well your standing in the one spot for age's there should be 3 or 4 sec amunty when u first drop as you can lose health from mother ship's before you even start great video thanks 👍
100% accurate - no more strategy - just brawl and use power cell
Your on point with what you said! But i would also like to take a brake from the stupid drones and ships, the game is too complicated rn :/ you have counters for counters and endless effects and abilities and unneded shields that competle ruin my experience like you just look at the left corner of your screen to see all the lockdown and suppression and the blablaahsdv cooldowns popping endless times i am saying this cuz ive been playing since 2017 and realized that the game is soo much more money oriented and little to no skill needed compaired to the old days((
Your right it's exhausting to fight in higher leagues. The game was so much fun back when it was simpler now it takes a immense amount of effort just to kill one meta bot and don't get me started on the drones and gold prices.
this is such a great game, why they got to ruin it like that? the point where I don't even know what is going one anymore. Even in fighting there is purple shield pop out of no where like every 7 seconds, and they got this healing out of no where (from the drones and pilots and also from the modules), plus every robot meta are pretty much all a tank now.
Ngl drones where the biggest mistake pixonic made. Giving every robot 55% resistance and boosting damage nearly to a 100% healing that restore like 60% hp in a second only Demeter should have that ability
I totally agreed with him
Because every time i play the game i always get matched up with players that has mk3 equipment while i just have level 5-6 equipment and it just ruins the fun
The game its no longer skill-base, people just fill the hanger with meta stuff like the khepri, skyros, revenant,etc with sonic shotguns, Homing machine guns, blastcharge shotguns.... the list goes on
Drones and battlleships are too op, the drones are just annoying, like every time im shooting at an enemy a stupid absorber shields just pop up every 5 seconds , same goes with the battleships, they gave the user a shield every 1-2 minutes and literally make them impossible to kill, they also does a ton of damage (e.g the orion)
Also the game allows you to buy mk2 equipment in the store, Pixonic really need to pay more attention to the F2P players in this game
I'm totally agree with you. That khepri overpowered. Moving too fast and it exhausted. Because of this I just play 3 or 4 game. I play on mobile the sensitivity is max I still can't catch khepri movement.
Indeed. Khepri is too overpowered, my average matches end up with 3 kills because of meta. I don't know, maybe it's fun to play with a Khepri robot, but if you don't have it the game becomes annoying, trying to focus all your hangar just to kill one tiny robot on free for all game mode.
Shooting at the khepri is like boxing at that small circular bag in the gym thats hung from the top and bottom.
Manni you are so right. To be honest, War Robots had been less fun to play for a continuous number of hours like before because there are hundreds of khepris in about every opponent's hangar. And I just unlocked the Raijin and then a fricking khepris just killed me with 4 blaze. This game is becoming a more pay to win rather than a 5v5 tactical battle. No matter how much you play, you will always get dominated by paying players. Don't get me wrong, paying players are outstanding and it is fair because they paid real world currency to this game to get the strongest robots and weapons but bro the fricking nerfs are so annoying. I wasted a lot gold on buying orkans and I regretted it after the orkans nerf. This game is becoming unfair for beginners and I hope pixonic is going to fix this.
I have 3 Skyros and it’s just easier to sit on beacons and roll around. Requires no concentration but helps win games. Too much going on when brawling.
Like we play rpg game, every bot should have same "skill points",if use more points at hp,then less point at firepower or speed,now meta also have 10/10 hp,10/10speed,10/10firepower, that's so exceed
Just in my opinion.
Here is My Idea for a rebalance to War Robots.
When I heard Manni Talking about the fact that older, less dominant weapons work on the Khepri, I thought of this idea:
We add a new robot/weapon Tier Ranking (Gray, Blue, Purple, Yellow, -Orange-)
And then we limit robots to only have the opposite of their Tier.
For Example:
- Tier 5 robots can only have Tier 1 Weapons.
- Tier 3 Robots can Have up to Tier 3 Weapons. And So On.
So that would mean That Khepris are limited to Punishers, Spirals, Molots, and all the gray tier weapons.
But a weaker robot like a Leo Can Have up to Tier 4 Weapons because the Leo is a Tier 2 Robot.
So only the gray robots can have the Tier 5 Weapons like Smuta, Havoc, Incinerator, and All that stuff.
Tell me what you think about this Idea.
I think that This will not only Balance the game, but actually offer strategy since it will make players explore new Builds and setups. When have you ever seen A Patton With 4 Kramolas, A Leo With Gekkos and Prisma, or something similar.
I miss when the spectre with punishers was viable and fun
Sadly I have to agree with you 100% Manni. Have played this game almost since the very beginning and have enjoyed the journey but it IS out of control.
The escalation of ridiculous game mechanics is a major problem.
New game mechanics need to be toned down. The power curve is nuts
Can I just say how unfair it is being able to purchase mk 2 weapons and robots in the shop
That really is crossing a new line that I also think isn't right
@@ManniGaming yea it makes all the players who can’t or won’t make purchases unable to get to higher ranks because everyone else is buying a mk 2 reverent for 30 bucks
Manni, let me give you my perspective, I'm also champion league. My play style is charge in blindly, ask questions later. I'm kind of glad there's drone shielding, but refuse to run last stand. The Khepri is more ridiculous than the Mender, which equipped correctly is a little beast! The one thing, is there's any fix for it is targeting.. I'm sitting there beating the snot out of somebody, and then game thinks I'm wanting somebody else... The lag is another. Since we're in the complain train, I want to form squads from other areas, iOS, Android, Steam... But coming out with new defective weapons, and robots is obviously more important.. Great video, Manni..
Actually the old war robots was much better and fair in my opinion because there wasn’t titans or drons or airstrikes and these things it was pretty simple and you can battle where you can beat someone kill someone buy good robots now it is much harder to get strong robots because there are some robots that needs 10000 pieces and there some robots that you get from packages and that is pretty annoying 😖😫
I quit it months ago. It was too much for my mental health and school and the same time and I nearly had a breakdown.
I think pixonic need to bring a scarcity / reward system to get rid of the abundance factor. Thats what is saturating the gameplay ; abundance of shields , abundance of firepower and abundant resistance etc. I think they should have chests on the battlefield and in each chest contains some items .I'd make it that energy shields completely deleted from the game but you can still have the aegis shield thus making shield breaker still useful . Chests on the battlefield contain powercells , gold , silver components for weapons and secret components also health for robots . Chests should also be in hard to reach areas which will bring back the jump engine mechanic , Chests should also contain sword reflectors which when activated spin fast enough to create a reflector for a few seconds followed by a single sword slash on the enemy (only upclose ) . No bendy bullets just simple battle strategy gameplay . Players should also have the freedom to trade with each other . Chests in lower leagues should also contain rare weapons that cannot be purchased but can be used until the ammo is expended. Thus luring the player to comeback and play .
Wow thats a great idea i would change a few minor things but other than that its great
Nah built in absorber sheilds are cool but drones are stupid
I haven’t played war robots in 3 months I just started playing it again I agree about the fixing the lag. I don’t like the lag.
I'm waiting for the return of ranged combat in war robots:) and upgraded map Yamantau)
Sounds like I need to buy a Kepri....ROTFLMFAO!!!!
I love wr as a 7 year Vet playing the game but I spent 1k per year realizing it got to much that I couldn't keep up so I quit playing cause of the meta and it got unfun
That's exactely what I feel while playing WR!
First comment
Close, but tenth
Nope.
Haven’t played the game in a while precisely because it was exhausting and frustrating to play against non-stop meta bots. I’m glad/sad to see that things haven’t changed and I’m not missing out on much.
Honestly, thanks for introducing Mech Arena on your channel, that’s been my robot fix for a quite some time now.
I've even used a few expletives during gameplay for exactly these reasons! It's SO frustrating. I mean, where is this game heading? Then there's the blizzard of effects/colours/weapon fire all going on at the same time making it really difficult to see what you're doing. For a mobile game, this really does your head in! Well said Manni
Manni, I've played this game for five years and It was always super fun. Whenever a new robot and weapon was introduced in 2017 to 2020, it wasn't super hard to get them, and they were cool and not too OP. Now with drones and motherships it is so hard to do anything at all. I agree with you on this.
If I'm gonna be honest, any game that appears to be skill based like cod or wwr they make the weapon or robot in this case super broken unkillable take over of the game for the first month then nerf it to be useless take ravana as an example or any smg in cod poof 2 seconds of fun then you're like what killed me then just see the kill feed.
.......
The easiest way to solve it is to lower its life, so that its maximum in mk3 with all the modules cannot exceed 200 or 240k hp. If they do that, I wouldn't mind their speed, nor their abilities, they can leave it as is. How is it possible that this robot has 500,000 hp? with 4 weapons!! if you tell me, 4 light weapons BUT, do you have an idea of the damage you can do with 4 weapons in mk3? all robots should get a hp increase, 20-30% (non-flying robots) jumping robots, like griffin, raven, mercury, etc. AND OF COURSE, allow all robots in the game to have the same mod capacity, last but not least, once you get your ship shield, you can't keep increasing the percentage, until your shield is removed . I forgot, the weapons that double (kramola and all that crap) should only be able to apply that effect at a distance of 200 meters, I mean, if you are more than 200 meters, shoot like a normal machine gun, example punisher. THAT'S IT, pixonic, stop ruining this game, i'm from the age of leo, griffin, stalker, THE TIME WHERE ALL ROBOTS COULD WIN, it doesn't matter if you got a fury, or a stalker, or a fujin, whatever you want ! you could fight with any robot.
I hate to say it buy the only really good gameplay to be found in War Robots currently is when Skirmish mode is available for the most part these days.
Getting new weapon & Upgrading equipment is next to impossible for free player.
First get robot (20+days)
Than get weapons(wait for 20+ days to get 1 weapon)
Than upgrade cost is too high
Than drones
Than pilots.
Modules
Titans
Titan modules
Active modules.
That's why i only play skirmish. I don't play any other mode now.
Oh I forgot battleship
Skirmish is the only playable mode in WR
I miss when war robots was simple. It's too complicated now. its also just pay to win. I get Pixonic needs to make money but they go overboard on so many things. Drones were bad. Motherhips where bad. Not to mention pixonic endlessly nerfed people items that they payed for and spent time on. 2016-2018 was the best war robots.
Been playing since I was a kid and I agree with you pixonic lost its identity with all this new and advanced stuff I finally returned after years of quitting and it felt like I was taking a test to become a aerospace engineer yes there are interesting bots and concepts but I do think pix handle things pretty weirdly to the point that the game isn't fun unless you have the meta in your hangar and weps like Taran avegnegerr thunder and tulumbas are basically obsolete when they used to be respectable weps
I 200% agree with you.... Ridiculous hangars with 2 4xsonic and 2 4xshot gun equipped, should be forbidden, just 2 same model robots at time, and the rest....learn to play, not to pay 😜
I'm right there with you Manni, I've been on WR ever since you could donate gold to your clanmates. Noticed the same, how the game is more for the, what I call wallet players. The fact that they let players drop in leagues also cause people to sand bag so they drop in league so they dominate in a lower league
Pixonic could unleashed Wr classic, no drones, no pilots just robots with abilities, and your experience would be best game??? 🤔
Agreed, there are more problems that could possibly be fixed for example the matching system is so bad also. Im F2P been playing for years now and majority of the times I join a game 1 robot of the enemy team can kill all my robots. It's not that I have weak robots I'm diamond 3 my robots I would say are average and somehow that robot kills my entire team with 6 million + damage while we get 500k or less since we couldnt do any damage to it. All those phase shift resistance purple shield it's instant kills and the game just isn't fun like that. They have all 5 hangers fully equipped while we have 4-5 robots on 1 hanger. The game match up system is a problem but that may also come from this game being pay to win
I think that the huge problem is that each time they release a new bot or weapon they make it overpowered so that everyone buys it and then they nerf it down to release another weapon or bot that is overpowered. However we can see a improvement with the new seraph robot as you said because it isn’t overpowered (for now at least)…
it is mostly the kepri I use magnums on it because I refuse to use curving bullets and it's still insane. I think they just need to fix that one bit and it will be better there are other things but I want that one changed specifically
I quit wr forever now. Maybe i will return one day but i got so tired of the meta that i just stopped trying. Wr was once a game where i would have fun instead of grinding and getting mad for nothing. Its a stupid game that doesnt deserve to be played anymore.
War robots has really changed these past 3 or 4 years to the extent that I feel like the are specific robots to use and prepare for
Take away the purple shield and that will solve half the problem alone
Hm. Yes, for brawling. But against Prisma snipers you kind of need this shield to survive (although it could also be an orange shield I guess)
@@ManniGaming you got a point but maybe not take it away fully but increase the timing to where it pop up or limit the purple shield each shield to take few sec long follow by the other and another but sec add towards it
This is a business.
When all donators pay all kheprys hangar then pixonic will nerf khepry and int some new imba robot.
Now this is khepry.
Before khepry it was siren, before siren it was revenant, and before it was shell.
Who use the shell now in top clans? No one. Why?
You play in this game very long time but you dont see this simple things..
