*Robocraft dev team headquarters* BOSS: Alright guys we need a new way to attract new players! Our last idea of taking away everything that made Robocraft good seems to have made all the old players give us bad reviews and drive away all the others! SCRUB 1: I know! We can add new overpowered guns that make the already underpowered normal weapons completely useless! BOSS: GREAT IDEA!!!!!! SCRUB 2: How about we stop giving players currency for completing games and give them random items instead of letting them buy the things they actually want! BOSS: ALSO AN AMAZING IDEA!!! SCRUB 3: Oh and we could get rid of the special currency that players have to pay for and not refund them for all the money they spent! BOSS: THAT'S SUCH A GOOD IDEA I'M PROMOTING YOU TO HEAD DEVELOPER!!!!! Sensible person: Um, how about we go back to the old game that attracted people in the first place? Bring back tiers, megabots, boss mode, different strength armour and verticality in general and improve matchmaking so new players with really weak bots don’t end up in the same games as hardcore players with thousands of hours? You know when we actually got positive reviews and the players didn't warn new people to stay away from the toxic pile of sludge Robocraft has become? EVERYONE ELSE:.......................................... BOSS: John, you're fired

You can usually find me upside down in a trench somewhere. 11/10

I made a 6 story office building out of T1 bricks. Put my seat and T2 hoverblades in it. Who needs weapons? It used 1300 pFLOPS. But I was nearly invincible! 11/10 would do more office work

Here's an "interview" with the developer team which nicely sums up the current robocraft situation: https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=HXiTCtWD2SE This used to be a fun game where you got rewarded with ingame currency and access to new robot parts every few hours of playing. Cycle of purchasing set of new parts, building a robot and fighting against others in a team deathmatch or MOBA-style game type was quite fun. Then Epic Loot update broke the game completely: - it removed the progression - it removed the currency - it added crafting instead of currency, which isn't really a thing since recycling items gives too small fraction and thus no value - it removed the matchmaking barrier between players, so now Veteran players armed to the teeth with items worth hundreds of thousands of robits now play against robots worth just a few thousand robits. It's called "Seal clubbing". - it added loot box system - after every game you get a few random items. I now have one spider leg, 1 medium size laser, 14 wings (but no good air weapon), 3 wheels of different type, 1 ski and a robot leg. I built a new robot every 2-3 days before the patch, now I have done one in two weeks because parts drop one by one instead of in sets, like I used to buy them in the old currency. Developers say that everything is ok ;)

- Launched into game - Saw the Starship Enterprise - Laughed - Died - Laughed 10/10

Online legos with laser beams.

Really chill. Gotta get used to them skrubs though. https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=B2LQZEFt7IM Cool song: https://youtu.be/lITExahxoyM

- Launch game. - Start a match. - Spawn underground. - Get raped by a guy who has built a giant p*nis. - Lose again. 10/10 would get raped again.

You can fly with out wings. 10/10 would spin out of control again

i killed a man to get a hold of this game but then i realised it was free

I'm not saying you guys ***ked up, but you guys ***ked up.

Freejam:Hey I have an idea! Fanbase:What is it? Freejam:I'm going to remove the abilty to get the games basic currency, that allows you to buy blocks, and replace it with CRATES!!!!! Fanbase:Well.. I guess it'll be fine, i mean we can just sell items we dont want right? Freejam:Oh yeah, also, i'm going to make it so that selling items will only give you 1/100th of what the item is actually worth, Hope you guys dont mind Fanbase:.....What the fuck? why would you fucking do that? Freejam:Oh nononono, dont worry, you can still BUY crates to get alot of items. Fanbase:But i wont get the stuff i want? Freejam:Too fucking bad, GIVE ME MORE MOENY!!!!! EDIT Freejam:Heres some changes stop giving robocraft negitive reveiws you retards Fanbase:How about you fix the rest of the game first? ____________________________________________________________________________ Seriously freejam, Fix your god damn game, the matchmaking is broken as shlt, The new weapons are Over powered as hell, the f!ucking recyling is near worthless, Crates only ever seem to give uncommons and rares, You cant even get the main f!ucking currency without recycling. TL:DR Freejam sucks asss Fix your game asssholes Edit 2: http://steamcommunity.com/sharedfiles/filedetails/?id=687894917&fileuploadsuccess=1 Apparently this photo was banned from the steam community, freejam doesnt like critique now do they? Edit 3: 2016-08-04 Nothing fixed, feejam still sucks _________________________________________________ Although this reveiw was from a while ago my point still stands, Freejam are assholes. Keeping this reveiw for archival purposes.

This is the real message. From your point of view, you are always on the blue team. Always fighting the red colored russies. This shows that in war, you never see the evil of your own point of view. We always believe in our morals and never step into other's shoes.

I first played this many months ago and decided to give it a try tonight, only to find they have added "EasyAntiCheat" as a requirement. While I get that client side anti-cheat software can be useful and seems to have been needed based on forum posts, I have considerable privacy concerns based on what EAC is requesting it be allowed to do on my computer. The software itself has full access to screenshot, keylog and google searches have shown the results are publicly available for all to see. The only limiting factor is their word that it only operates while the game is running. While I'm sure there is other anti-cheat software running on my computer (ie steam), the data it returns to any third party servers has never been Google searchable. I recommend the developers for Robocraft force a migration of their users to Steam and use Steam's built in anti-cheat instead of using a third party app developer who obviously has zero clue on how to secure data being returned to their servers. There's no excuse for that to be Google searchable.

WAS the Awesomenes Construction Simulator 2014. That is what this game WAS. Note that I'm a Tier 9 and have just recently played this game to update my review. I have Built: M-35 Mako from Mass Effect 1 M-44 Hammerhead from Mass Effect 2. UT-47A Kodiak from Mass Effect 3. Terran Diamondback from Starcraft 2. Terran Ar♥♥♥♥e Mercenary Siege Tank. (YES. THE SIEGE BREAKER FROM WINGS OF LIBERTY.) But none of that matters when the base physics of the game have been modified from what was established, the weapons continuously nerfed until being 6 feet under, Rewards being lowered with "Improvments to the system", and a plethora of other problems. Back in early 2014 I STRONGLY, I repeat, STRONGLY supported this game. STRONGLY, I emphasize this, say it with me. STRONGLY... SUPPORTED THIS GAME. But with every step forward, FreeJam has shown they intend to take two steps back every time. - "Clone Wars" So let's first start off with the removal of all the nice cool gadgets that were originally available right at the start. This included the Hoverblades, Plasma launchers, Railguns, and thrusters. From level 1 upward of Level 3. Yes, this happened. Freejam didn't change THIS until 7 months later, when people stopped crying and moaning for it to come back. - "Double Edged Butt-fuckery" Now PRIOR to this, they also made some modifications to the reward system, adding a "Repair function" to the game, which put a drain on casual players Tiers 6 and up back then. What was the kick in the balls here? a 25% decrease in rewards. Yes, BOTH RP and TP (Robopoints and Techpoints). - "Hero Zero" Next up was the "Hero System", which allowed you to get the full RP and TP from a match you died in if your team won, but WAIT! ...At the cost of the entire reward system getting another 25% decrease. At this point, managing to make enough money to get new parts was an uphill battle, and at a 50% reward decrease that has remained permanent to this day, It's been a massive pain in the ass. - "Turn up for Hate" Now, next up, THEY REMOVE repair cost, yet YET again, ANOTHER FREAKING REWARD QUANTITY DECREASE. You getting the pattern yet? Don't worry I'll explain it in a second. At this point, it got rediculous, but oh no, there's even MORE. - "From Intense to Indense" This game was always a One-life team Death Match game. The "Respawned and Overclocked" update has killed everything that made it original and turned it into a confused MOBA wannabe. Even worse, is that they've now set the original mode, now named "Classic" So far on the back burner it can take from 5 minutes to 3 hours just to get on a match, gradually decreasing the time needed to even get into one with each tier you go up. But here's the final blow to the old mode: A 80% decrease at this point... To the profit you make from it. "Classic" is now as worthwhile as dumping your ass in a toilet...Or on a development team. Think that's the worst part? Oh no. I'm not even FINISHED. - "WHAT IS WRONG WITH MY FUCKING KEYBOARD!?!" The controls with any movement design other than Tank treads will feel so obliterated you will literally ask... Yeah that's right, the subtitle of this paragraph. As of the R&O Update, Wheels are incredibly sluggish, Rockets provide minimal momentum, hoverblades are highly unstable if you lose even ONE, Aerofoils are a disaster to use, Walker legs are bloody hell to even keep still on a ceiling or a steep hill if you want to stay in place, and believe me, it's going to walk down to the surface on you while you shoot. And LASTLY, the rotor blade design is sluggish as well. THIS SHIT GENUINELY BRINGS MY P!SS TO A PLASMATIC BOIL. THE CHALLENGE SHOULD NOT BE IN HANDICAPPING THE FUCKING PLAYER. - "GIVE US UR MONIES!" Why all the reward debuffs? Because they want money. They want to FORCE THE PLAYERBASE to purchase premium currency so that they can accelerate their growth to a level they can remotely tolerate. This game never DID have a fair free to play model, but it is now skewed beyond any conceivable belief. And also, No, it's not even classified as Pay to Win. IT'S PAY TO FUCKING PROGRESS. - "GIVE US UR MONIES 2!!1" The introduction of Easy Anti Cheat, or EAC. Instead of using Steam's VAC system which worked very well and still mostly does, made no sense either. They decided to use a third party system, that not only people have always second-guessed, but never trusted, and never been comfortable with. You see where this is going? Yeah. They drove off a number of their player base stating, "If you can't get into Robocraft to play because of EAC, that is a small price to pay for the issue of Hackers trying to ruin our game". The only people who tried to help fix this was EAC themselves as I recall, and even THEN, only under the pressure of the Robocraft community, which had already started leaving. - "GIVE US UR FERKIGN MUNEEZ!!11!ELEVEN!" WHY did EAC have to fix it? Because Freejam was too dumbfounded watching the stars shine out of their fat frigging assh0les to do it themselves, aside from the matter of the development company's profoundly horrendous inexperience in stopping hackers in the first place. But it doesn't even end there. They won't respond to crticism kindly, light or dark, which is why i'm not sugarcoating this. Not even an ounce. They won't listen to reason, no matter how kindly you put it. If they don't like your ass, you better be prepared for the ban hammer, because they silence ANY AND ALL FEEDBACK that involves any kind of actual review with a VENGEANCE. And hell, this hasn't even ended yet. Keep reading. This is starting to look like the Robocraft Holocaust. *shudder* - "Nerf 'em to the Grave" Now, the FINAL kick to the balls here, and you might not get up from this one, is the repeated nerfing of weapons that have performed perfectly fine, and the buffing of weapons that never even needed a buff. FINALLY, there's the issue of rendering certain vehicular designs completely obsolete, promoting the uncreative design of Gun Bricks with tank treads, and tank treads only. I'll give an example. - "From Speedy to Needy" I made a vehicle called "The Masterkill B@stard" (Frankly can't put the word itself in) Which operated on two things: Wheels + downforce, and rocket asssisted forward momentum. As of 3 days after the R&O update, my speedy little vehicle is no faster than a Treaded Tank, and that's WITH the thrusters on. I guess people can't stand having to exercize their arms, hands and fingers with the corsshairs on their Railguns and enjoy the game, because this actually happened. WITHOUT rockets, it's even SLOWER than a tank. Believe me, i've tested this one the day I learned of the horror inflicted on the Physics engine, which I think it's safe to say, it's nearly nonexistant now. - "Final Thoughts" Lastly, like i said, I STRONGLY... STRONGLY! SUPPORTED THIS GAME! Hell, I even put $10 into this game just for hangar bays! But as of now? FreeJam has botched their game so much, yielded to the manipulation of their own community so badly, that it is nigh-unenjoyable. This game had SO MUCH POTENTIAL a year ago. But now it's all been dried up. Freejam has made it evidently clear they don't want to take a step in the right direction. A year ago, i'd give this game a 9.5 out of 10. But as of now, I can only - in good conscience - give it a 4 out of 10. A toxic community, confused development team, nonsensical gameplay, poor teamplay or constant nerfs as a double-edge to updates, and absolutely horrible physics engine tortured to death by modification of what it once was, ALL IN THE NAME, of staying away from making the game overall better simple for personal profit, keeps me from daring touch this awful nightmare any more after this. Stay. Away. From this hideous deformed child of a game. You will be stricken with it's Gods-awful MOBA wannabe gameplay.

Backing Up Into Teammates Right Behind You Simulator 2015 Tier 10 Still Called Robo1 Simulator 2015 10/10 would get crawled on by a friendly Plasma Walker again.

Freejam treats this game the same way that the Cincinatti zoo treats gorillas.

A Robocraft Anecdote: After being the first player to reach over 2.2 billion RP and the game bugging out due to it hitting the 32 bit integer ceiling for the game client (32 bit game client), The lead developer Sebastiano first accused me of cheating, and then proceeded to delete 1.2 billion of my RP as a fix, I was never compensated for this bug or loss. You can see how the developer handled it here: https://twitter.com/UncerAmbi/status/656625543102767104 A Robocraft Story: In the beginning Robocraft’s fanbase were building lovers, some art some engineer. The game tought them how to fight, and they became strong. It was a free to play game loved by it's players. FJ then comes along and nerfs the physical simulator too much, making engineers rage. Developers barely play the game themselves leading to a detachment from their part on in-game balance issues. FJ buffs and nerfs in increments of 20% percent or more without any consideration for matchmaking or player skill. Test environment behaves differently than production environment so they are unable to properly test and fix long existing bugs. They add new unbalanced and unfinished gimmick features or game modes. They removed Over Tiering, but it affects Art bots as well. All cube types removed, TX cube removed then brought back only to quickly make them useless in the next update. Colours blocked behind premium paywall making the Art builder rage as well. After destroying Robocraft with their MOBA fixation they recently tried to cash grab the PUBG trend by making RoboCraft Royale and asking 15 euro for it, only to quickly make it free to play within a day. To add shame to sorrow you cannot build any robots in Royale making people wonder why it's got "craft" within it's name.

TL;DR: Robocraft did not deliver on the potential it promised and instead changed the core gameplay mechanics to mimic other shooters, destroying what made the game unique.

I have played this game for over 3000 hours (the standalone launcher does not add to steam hours) and supported the game with over 100GBP (150$+). I was a moderator for the game because I believed in it and wanted to support the community, but was removed from the team because I spoke out to a developer about the direction they were taking – not because I wasn't doing my job, but because I spoke my mind. The game has changed. Freejam have tried to make the game more accessible to new players, with a focus of getting as many players as possible. But instead of focussing on what made the game great and trying to get players to love it, they changed the gameplay mechanics in order to please a wider audience, which destroyed many aspects of what made the game great and unique in the first place. Instead of a currency reward system that allows players to buy the parts they want for their robots, they now have a "random loot crate" reward system, which is a blatant attempt at copying other games and trying to trick people into spending real money on the game. Non-premium users get tempted by the items that they could have received if they had paid for premium (every loot crate that gets opened show the premium items) with the option to purchase it now to receive the items. Furthermore, only the top scoring player on the winning team receives the highest level crate (which promises better item drop chances), while every member of the losing team receives the same low quality crate. This leads to selfish play for the highest score rather than the rewarding teamplay experience that it used to be, and also leads to the losing team to stop trying because they receive the same bad rewards either way. They also made the most interesting part about the game – the fact that building skill and design decisions directly affects battle performance – much less meaningful over the last couple of months, by removing the pilot seat component, introducing auto-healing (another aspect to mimic other shooters), and allowing each player to put several different gun types on their robots, which removes the need for playstyle specialisations. This also negatively affects teamplay, because there is no use for dedicated medics or dedicated frontline or support types – every player is now a (selfish) one-man-army trying to score the highest points. This game had a lot of potential a year ago, but the developer's decisions over the last updates have shown that they care less about making a good game and more about the money they can make by trying to get more players with lower skill levels, by copying other generic shooter-types and removing/reducing the unique aspects that used to make Robocraft great. Freejam have gone the way many F2P games go and opted for the cash-grab alternative. It is disappointing, because there was so much potential.

UPDATE: After two and a half weeks, the lead game designer released a "state of the game" letter, which conveniently failed to address any of the points the community has brought up in their feedback. This, to me, puts the final nail in the coffin. These developers do not care for the quality of their game or their community, they are only out for new players for their statistics and wallets.
