Minecraft is what I play with my son when I need a mech arena break! It's nice to not spend too much time in one platform, anyways :D

i took a break from minecraft and mech arena for 5 months, came back to mech arena but not minecraft, all while minecraft was my favortie game, idk why

We are glad that you are back 🤗

It's sad I used to derive a lot of joy playing mech arena. Now play for any extended amount of time and your experience will suffer. I've ditched mobile games almost entirely I play a tiny bit of mech arena some days but not much anymore. PC ecosystem doesn't feel like every game is trying to bleed your wallet dry. Any game that's a one time purchase is good. Sometimes I'll pay for a game with DLC if I think it's worth it. Much happier as a gamer. Just wish I could get the same joy from mech arena that I did that first year

FOR ME IT ALREADY DIED 3 YEARS AGO. When I realized the constant Nerfing of weapons and mechs, the lord god almighty director of the community says it's normal. NO IT'S NOT normal, because the way you do it, you're not capable of it. Other games have another way of screwing over customers, more delicate, more kind, and more respectful, and the customer accepts it, you have no conscience, and you go from one extreme to another, as an example of the opponents.,,, can you, MISTER GOD ALMIGHTY, GIVE ME AS AN OPPONENT A PLAYER 5-6 K STRONGER??? That's why it's been dead for a long time. DISHONESTY and inability to develop fun for everyone.. this was a great game, but they made it trash.

I was addicted to this game just like the rest of yous, I've been here since the beta. I've seen and have went through everything these developers have thrown at the game to see if it sticks and I've come to realize that this game is 100% designed and managed to groom people into being addicted gamblers and absolutely nothing more. This game is structured to manipulate you into looking past the overwhelming flaws and continue to waste your time and money 🔁a repeating cycle🔁.. I've finally found a different mobile mech game that is so much more fun and engaging. The experience I'm having with this other mech game has been so refreshing compared to what mech arena offers for an experience. They are about to have their 7 year anniversary as a mobile mech shooter game and the experience I'm having there is far better with developers that actually care about the state of the game. Yeah it has purchases but it's not p2w, everything is obtainable through progression that doesn't take years of constantly grinding against a rigged system (yeah purchasable items are thrown at you but truly never needed and as a f2p player, you don't feel left out or left behind like mech arena pushes you to feel in hopes the novelty shop comforts you. This other mech game that's been around years longer than mech arena must be a good game because the developers of mech arena use this other mech shooter for concepts of mechs and weapons to the point mech arena even uses the names of the mechs and weapons, even the looks and some functions are the same lol. Anyways, after playing this other mech game for a little over a month now I'm realizing and fully seeing that mech arena is nothing more than an over valued novelty shop and the team behind it having absolutely no innovations and the need to use other developers ideas as their own has opened my eyes and pulled me out of the trap they set. I have such a better experience that when loosing in this other mech game its still more enjoyable than winning in mech arena.. that speaks louder than any words. It's fun playing a game that's meant to be a game to play and not a novelty shop trying to groom you into being a trinket collector. And this other mech game has way way more game modes and live players.. even has an offline mode that you can earn resources from and use to progress in the online mode.. it has ai bots that are much more manageable and not insane ai murder bots like here.

friend, you're absolutely right, but from the famous first beginning of the NEF series. Yes, we're still talking about the beginning, from the first nerf of EM RIFLE. There I realized not to spend even 1 cent, because I've known Plarium for 10 years... and in the last 5 years they've become dishonest to the maximum level. So they only tried to make me understand the dishonesty of this game, based on AI, and the remapping of the usual weapons that changes name and shape but the procedure is always the same, NERF NERF NERF and that's it AI AI AI... ohh what a drag, as always their luck is the newcomers unaware of Plarium's method... this is a useless game for the players. Just garbage

I get the frustration. After 2+ years, big changes can definitely make the game feel completely different. Hopefully the developers listen to longtime players

they dont :D

and here is the reason why i will never see the "no bots" button, the bots will always be pushing us out of cover, running in front of us because like mods said "they are mimicking human behaviour" and i finally understood what it actually means. 

The player Reset is a living proof of why Plarium does it, the longer new players believe they are playing with real humans the longer they will spend:

Adding no bots button will raise too many unnecessary questions :D and they push you because that is intended by developers

I hate everything about things game. Its funny how crystaldrew only acknowledged the one guy who said he came back after a 5 month break, but nothing about the complaints. Its fine he doesn't respond, all of the responses are the same in how the acknowledge the problem and are taking notes, but yet nothing gets done. The matchmaking is still crap, bots still dominate and the game is still rigged to try and get you to spend money. You know its rigged when you can tell you are going to lose before the match even begins by looking at the lineup of teams.

Along with the other problems this game has, I am loving how you take damage if someone fires in your general direction and it doesn't matter the weapon.  I have died when someone was shooting in the complete opposite direction as me.

Overall There is just nothing fun or enjoyable about this game anymore. All it does is piss me off and puts me in a bad mood. I am deleting this game and maybe I will try again later, but given the inability or refusal of the developers to change the game for the better, i don't see the point in coming back cause I know it will still be a bag of 

i left one such game some time ago, the developers only cared about.. nothing really.. changing interface in weird places.. while it was full of bugs and poroblems. I visit it from time to time to chat with friends and nothing changed, i cant even chat there properly because of bug where you need to do huge effort to correct a typo as it goes back to beginning of your text and you only see one line of your text and i do lot of typos :) and some people still there, i mean probably all of them, and still paying money :)
