Honest opinion and feedback about mech arena

I have been seeing too much posts regarding over powered bots in the forums. Yet they dont have time to actually balance the game.

Bots shooting through walls, through panthers shield, even through aegis dome. Not to mention the impossible aim and reflex of the bots. 

Developers be like, "oh yeah the bots with legendary implants and pilots will surely balance the game. And yeah buffing minigun a bit more will bring balance to the game."

I would like to know what kind of stuff are the developers smoking when they thought of this. That stuff must make you so high.

Oh, not to mention the support system, their response be like, "thank you for contacting us, we will surely send this to the developers and discuss it to laugh at you guys."

"Changes are made by analysing the feedbacks and suggestions of the players" - Cant you guys see most of the players complaining about bots, or are you guys really blind to see the issue.

Oh and by posting it the team will say that, implementing changes cannot be done immediately, it will take time. 

Really thats the reason for your inability, cant fix the issues but has time to introduce new mechs and weapons without proper testing so that they can nerfit soon after most of the players has hands on it.

Oh and by calling you guys out for your bs gets you banned temporarily from the forum. I have only posted one post and comment on a post without breaking any of the forum guidelines. Yet I was banned for a day from posting. Talk about stooping too low.

The only regret I have is that I invited some of my friends to play this game. Even my clanmates have stopped playing.

Dont you  dare say that you guys care about the playerbase. You dont.

It has never been their interest to solve something, they are only interested in pissing you off, because you run to the shop and upgrade your weapons, which sooner or later will still be nerfed, depowered.. don't hope they think about your fun ... they only think about how to steal your money.. this is the answer to everything......

Hello! You left pretty comprehensive feedback, so I'll answer in parts.

1. EM Rifle nerf - according to your text, you've already seen my comments about the reasons for this Update. You may agree with them or not - it's up to you, but still, that's exactly what made us make this decision. I want to add that while changing EM Rifle we considered it to remain powerful, and it's one of the most powerful Weapons in the game. Players are able to one-shot with it, and I've already checked it personally (being shouted). By saying that, I'm only trying to explain our state of affairs, not to argue or outrage you/other community members.

2. "Thank you for contacting us, we will surely send this to the developers and discuss it to laugh at you guys" - we are constantly passing on feedback to our developers. I mean constantly all the feedback. The devs know about almost everything happening in the community, and we are taking it as seriously as it's possible.

3. Bots - we are working on them constantly, as well as on the whole Matchmaking system. I understand why you don't like the thesis "implementing changes cannot be done immediately, it will take time," but it's impossible to describe this complicated process of improving the core game mechanics in the other way. 

4. "Cant fix the issues but has time to introduce new mechs and weapons" - as it was already mentioned on the forum, there are different teams creating new Content, testing it, and fixing issues. Releasing something without testing is impossible. However, the game is changing. By adding new components, the old ones are changing respectively. That's a circle that is present in literally all online games, so buffs/nerfs/other changings are a common practice that helps developers meet their initial purposes.

5. "I was banned for a day from posting" - it's a forum's bad. Due to spam attacks happening on the forum, sometimes it can automatically consider the on-forum activity as spam. Please, reach out to our Support team if it happens again.

I hope that I've covered all the topics that you mentioned. We understand your pain, as the nerfs are always painful. Please, give EM Rifle some time to prove it's still relevant and powerful.

P.S. We see what's going on in the community and what reaction this nerf has made. We are investigating this case!

First of all, I have come to terms nerf with em, but why buff minigun when it was not needed. If you had to buff, buff older mechs and weapons. You guys silently nerfed Redeemer. Why wasnt it mentioned. When Redeemers ability is used it takes a sec to activate. Its after the em nerf. Dont say its a bug. If you guys didnt mess with it., it would have never happened.


2. Contacting your support - All I get is an automated message saying thanks for the feedback. Still that issue persist. (Its been months since I reported Panther problem).


3. Regarding bots - Sorry it was wrong of me to think developers could fix it. They couldnt even fix matchmaking since its beta phase. (Again this problem was reported since oct, 2022)


4. Fix the issues first. You can introduce mechs and weapons a bit later solve the issues first. Half of the players quitting are because of your mismanagement. Most of the games come to an end due to poor resource management. Look at Pixonic for example - they lost their playerbase due to monthly introduction of mechs and weapons - ring any bells. This season alone 2 weapons and its variations (I guess 3 for each to be exact) and a mech. Frankly at this point, I believe you guys are trying to follow the same pattern.


5. Support doent work properly.

from what I see and you can see the community is super pissed off, there's nothing else to add other than the fact that it's not like you say because while I'm reloading EM, I'm destroyed by an 80m arc torrent in 1.5 seconds .........no you don't know what you did but time will tell...surely my contribution to the game is over. sorry, you are not honest developers. first you spend then nerfed .. no no no .. Today's EM shop offer I would have taken earlier, now it's not anymore and completely useless and another gesture that leads us to think that it was organized just to let us share more money . I would have taken it. not now.

your choices do not coincide with the enjoyment of the community'

The OP brings up some good feedback. The player community at large has noticed that average bots in game are almost always geared with the most rare implants and pilots. They should be reduced in strength to approximately the same as the player for fairness.

Regarding the EM nerf, I'd like to say that I do not like the way it was done without warning or notice to the community. Removing the auto aim does make it VERY hard to aim on mobile, which is a huge appeal of the game. If the goal is to make it more like the other sniper weapons without aim assist, is it possible to reduce the shot time? I notice that the half-second from pulling trigger to the shot being fired is what causes most of the times a shot to miss. I could live without the aim assist if the shots went off slightly faster.


Thank you to the original poster for speaking up! Hopefully more feedback like this will be taken seriously.

You do realize every response you received other then the first is the quick replys that support sends u after u send them something. At least in the very first response. One time I actually got a genuine response from the team and it had different background and had a letter head. Very professional. Everything else I've ever gotten was the answers noted above. .

I agree with you on your views.

the reaction was catastrophic and the EM rifle as it is now is no longer of any use, just shoveling s**** in the stables. I don't agree with nerfs because they steal money from players, this is one of the reasons he told me STOP EURO IN Plarium,... actually already from the EM nerf. I got pissed like 60% of the players did. your words are always the same... In the forum, whatever the topic, 88% of the players have a negative opinion and protest, but this doesn't affect you, otherwise you would have already resolved part of the protests. with that, the game is over, i don't want and i have no intention of spending money on any other present or future weapon, only to have my money thrown in the s****. keep it up.

EM rifle NERF was easy. +50% to reload time. That was all you had to do. Most people wanted it to keep 1 shotting opponents. Most people wanted to keep the auto-aim. There is benefits to having manual aim as well, but a lot of players disagree with that type of change.

I'm going to disagree with everyone saying minigun buff wasn't needed. That's far from the case. Nobody in their right mind used it prior to the buff.

I actually can relate to agree with you, the only 2 things that are bugging me out are:

1. Unfair Matchmaking (In matches, tournaments and playoffs)

2. OP Bots
