This should be a 4 or 5 star game, but the company does not care about the game experience of the player. They want to trick people into paying money for it once they are committed to playing. BEWARE OF THE SUNK COST FALLACY playing this game. For a person who is not going to pay and just play the events this is a great game to play every day for about 2-3 months. Then If you want to play beyond that you will have to pay or be fodder for those who do. Until they make a match making system that evens out the teams you will not go any further. The only way to make the important in game currency (a-coins) with out buying them is to win tournaments. Once you start facing P2W players you stop winning tournaments and don't advance. Mech Arena tries to hide this through various "events" that you can play every day to win *some* things. The fact is by the time you get to the mid game those rewards are so minuscule compared to the requirement to advance equipment or get new weapons, and you are so out ranked by people who can and will pay, that you will not advance. Come mid game, you MUST buy in game currency or weapons, in order to participate in the events that will you get the money to buy the equipment to win games. As the game attracts more players that fall into the trap it will get worse. Its a good game with a company that does not really care about improving its experience. Play for 2 months and quit. I really like this game. I wish the makers did as well.
