Guardian still does well in FFA all things equal and certain CPC maps if using mortars. 

@Community Manager: Listen better. You should not be trying to win an argument. Players are telling you that their experience is worse. Imagine going to any other service company where the customer respectfully gives legitimate criticism of their experience. Any employee who say "Well that's not how I feel about it..." has missed the point.

You also frequently bring up the matchmaking system and how that will improve over time. That does not explain why EVERY single bot opponent has maxed out implants on every pilot. This is the equivalent of HUGE $$ being spent. I do not think that is equalized at all and Plarium has 100% control over things like that, so it is fixable.

Hi! I don't start arguing or change someone's mind, but I'm explaining the reason for concerns as in most cases players ask "Why is this happening?". In no way we are denying your opinions and we constantly bring all the feedback to our developers.

I mention the Matchmaking feature as it's an important part of the subject that's in the progress of changing.

You did more than explain reason for concern.

First of all, this thread was not made to highlight the matchmaking. This thread was made to highlight devalued mechs. So you missed the point. And besides, the matchmaking was never good. How am I supposed to believe it's suddenly going to improve after the update?

Second of all by repeatedly trying to explain to me the point of the update and that players can have a diverse array of hangars should they choose, while glossing over important details in the points I made, it really made it feel like you were arguing.

The changes in the mechs is a little disappointing, tried to max Stalker and now not as useful.  

My biggest peeve is the weapon changes and the bots.

The legendary weapons are TOO good for the most part.  Disc Launchers killing bots in two shots.  Miniguns doing 800k damage for a clip, which can take down my maxed panther in 3 seconds.   Grav Beams killing in 2 seconds.  There is no strategy now, a couple luck shots and you dead.  Add in the Bot issue of then instantly turning on you over teammate bots no matter the distance, and I am getting killed way too fast.  No time to "play" the mech.  

I still cannot believe the Bot issue I mentioned is still a problem, I will be coming around a building, there will be 3 friendly bots already in front engaging an enemy bot and the enemy bot will turn and ignore all and focus on me.  They should not be changing focus like that!  I can understand if I am actively attacking the bot he might turn on me and ignore others but I have not taken one shot and the bot turns and focuses on me.   Now with bots having all legendary weapons with maxed implants/pilots it means instant death.  

I have changed my playstyle from grinder to sniper just to have a chance most games.  The game is loosing its "FUN" appeal.  

I AGREE!! I used to spend $20-$30 a week on Mech Arena but I haven't spent a dime since the update. Why would I? Any money I spend could just be devalued later. It doesn't make sense to level anything but legendary bots and weapons now, maxed rare weapons are no match for 3 star legendary weapons. 

I'm talking about the Matchmaking in the context of the nerfed mechs because if it performs correctly, the Mechs aren't felt changed much due to an average opponent picked up according to your Hangar. So, I mean playing with other nerfed Mechs you won't feel that difference that much, and speaking about my personal experience the game didn't change a lot to me (I have a diverse Hangar consisting of Mechs all Grades up to Epic). Calling play more I emphasize how to help the Matchmaking calibrate better.

Explaining the point of the Update I don't deny its disadvantages and the current problems you are mentioning. On the contrary, I'm collecting your feedback to show and proceed with our team. We do appreciate your enthusiasm and it really helps us to build the picture of the current state of the game and what steps we need to do next to improve it.

Okay so I hope you understand this but I only need to know how the matchmaking system works once.

We need an epic version of the "Shotgun".

Plarium we need an epic version of the shotgun, possibly an "Automatic Shotgun". Mechs like Tengu and shadow have fallen way behind. These fun to play mechs were never meta breaking before but are now unusable in the current meta. I think it would be really exciting to introduce an "Automatic Shotgun" into the close quarters category. An "Automatic Shotgun" would feel great, would be a lot of fun to play and possibly make these mechs usable again. 

We need an epic version of M.D.

The last update M.D. only received a 19% increase to his heal ability, meanwhile mechs received 40-100% HP increase. This made M.D.'s heal extremly underwhelming. This was another fun to play mech that wasn't meta breaking and didn't deserve to be left behind. Let his heal be increased by 120% to match the HP/DMG increases of the meta mechs/weapons. You could even create a new Epic Support mech with an ability that gives every other mech around you a HoT (heal over time) buff. That way  you can heal them without having to stay near them. 

Mechs like M.D., Tengu and Shadow are very expsive in A-Coins to max out so would be nice to see some love for them or outfit them with the tools they need to play well. 

PS: would it really hurt to make lancer 24 energy? Keep his HP the same at common but man... R.I.P. Lancer.

Yes, my tengu was great but now I had to spend 2500 acoins just to get him to be as good. Also don't use shotguns on him anymore(arc torrents instead)

Who will pay me back the money I spent on the shotgun 8 or rocket mortar 12?

They don't work anymore. Don't make stupid excuses.

Best advice, stop running at the enemy and maybe use cover, along with basic tactics and some friends and you can be deadly even with a Lancer.

Stop complaining because you suck.

Shotgun 8 work great for me, same with pulse cannon 8. 

You're totally right. If your opponents suck you can absolutely be deadly with lancer.

It's all about money, period. They see people not buying new crap, so how do we get them to buy our new latest and greatest weapon ever? (Snicker,)  I know! By Jove, we will nerf all their old favorites, and they'll get mad, but we don't care here at Malarium.  You want customer satisfaction... LOLololooo... Surely you jest! So, now you have no choice, we made it for you. Becsuse you are all stupid enough to let them repeatedly do this to you.... YOU DESERVE TO GET ROBBED ... you people who complain yet pay up anyway.. hypocrites is what it is.

I don't pay anymore because of what malaria (whoops I mean plarium) did to 

t will be at your level, at mine which is high it doesn't work and before the update it was one of the best weapons. I paid for it and now it doesn't work. I want my money.

This goes out to all the Plarium devs. Why can't you leave the free implant exchange exactly the way it is? What are you really losing out on? I am 99% sure that I can speak for all players that it would be in the top three wants for us all. So what is the HONEST reasoning behind why you just can't do 

The nerf on the Zephyr and Ares really sucks. The reduction to 3 seconds makes the EMP on the Zephyr less than the Surge, a mech that that is faster and has more HP. Ares has become the useless baby brother to the Bastion.
