I haven’t been on the wiki for a couple months, and all of a sudden everyone’s talking about leaving WR to battle of titans? Can anyone tell me anything about it? It just looks like a spinoff of WR. People are getting frustrated with Pixonic (or more specifically, Mail.Ru) because some of the stuff they're doing is upsetting the balance of the game, or just lowering the quality (i.e. Pinata/Pin/Tulumbas redesigns and the removal of prefixes).

The most obvious examples of this are the Haechi, which is quite unbalanced, and the Shocktrain, especially when used together. They also removed backpedalling and made all rocket weapons fire-through-reload (except the Trident, for some reason), which has seriously damaged the usability of smaller, faster bots.

Then there is the rigged lottery and the components system, and the offers are seriously, seriously, seriously overpriced. This all leans towards the idea that Pixo is turning the game into a cashgrab. It is still fun, but not as much as it was.

As for BoT, it is an upcoming game with a similar premise as War Robots, but with arguably better graphics, a different system of combat and better balance (though that may be because there is not nearly as much stuff in the game right now). It plays quite differently to War Robots.

I even heard a rumour that some of the people working on BoT are former Pixo people who have become disillusioned with WR, though that may not be true, I dunno. But in any case, BoT is by no means a copy or spinoff of WR.
