But the devs are focused on fine-tuning new items for months when match-making takes at least 10+ minutes most of the time. Im not understanding why some much attention is given to an item that’s rarely used when we literally can’t play the game. Add bots, PLEASE. Let your player-base play this game and rebuild from there. All the events are timed. I cant play the game. Estimated matchmaking is 2 minutes and 20 minutes later ai give up. Please add bots. Please Rovio. Add bots. Lots of players want to play and lots more are paying. Get rid of FFA, it’s awful. Add bots. That’s it. ### 2/5 — False banned *2026-07-26, version 5.4.3* Very cool Game but i got false banned and rovio support not responding ### 3/5 — Ghép trận không công bằng *2026-06-29, version 5.4.2* 1 người mới chơi nhưng vẫn cho ghép chung với các người chơi kì cựu khác ### 2/5 — Just another bad move *2026-06-15, version 5.4.0* Player pool is shrinking, matchmaking is terrible. So devs introduce 2 new items (shields) that require zero skill & do passive damage, essentially punishing players for making their shots by throwing back damage they did to target boat. Doesn’t take much to sit in a burning boat hull & do damage to enemy team. It’s a good game miserably failed by management, which was absent for years until Sega bought it. ### 3/5 — A fantastic game but… *2026-06-07, version 5.4.0* This is an excellent game except you can’t get a match anymore. It might take 5 minutes to half an hour. Events are the same. I don’t know why the developers aren’t supporting it more ### 1/5 — óc chó rovio *2026-06-04, version 5.4.0* đội ngũ phát triển game đúng đầu toàn cứt ### 1/5 — Support *2026-05-30, version 5.4.0* There support is awful.. zero communication ... gone weeks without being able to buy pearls or vip... they do not respond ### 3/5 — Neglected *2026-05-23, version 5.4.0* I’ve played this game for the last 7 years off and on, needless to say I have a love hate relationship with it like the rest of the veterans. It used to be easy to get a ranked match and face fair opponents. Nowadays that rarely happens. You can be gear score 7k facing enemies with 10k or more. That’s completely ridiculous. Then on top of that on a good day it takes over 5 minutes just to get a match. Now if you’re trying to rank up that’s just not going to work. Most people don’t have the time to sit there and wait all day trying to gain a few hundred infamy. Let’s not get into the unregistered shots. This game used to be really fun to play but now it’s a hassle. Especially when there’s no event. Please fix these issues. We don’t want new shields, we want better match making!!! Give us new maps not new skins. Completely pointless. Create a community where we know your there actively taking care of the game! Lately since you guys last crashed the game I’ve been randomly getting disconnected. Seems like I can’t even stay in the game for more than 3 minutes without it crashing. I’m begging you guys to just fix this. There are a ton of veterans playing this game wishing and hoping you guys would just take the time to fix such simple issues!!!! ### 1/5 — เกมบังคับ เอาไอเทม ใส่ช่องแล้วค้างทำห่าไรไม่ได้ *2026-05-17, version 5.4.0* ปรับปรุงด่วนเลย มาค้าง บังคับเอาไอเทมใส่ ช่องเหลือง แต่เรือมันไม่ให้ใส่สภาพ สรุปเล่นไม่ได้เพราะ ระบบเอ๋อๆ ### 1/5 — Wait time *2026-05-16, version 5.4.0* Game is dead, takes forever to get into a match ## Most critical reviews (10 lowest-rated) ### 1/5 — Erro no meu vip tá combrando se usar *2026-08-05* Suporte não resolve ### 1/5 — Game once great *2026-08-03, version 5.4.3* Game had such potential, developers dropped support now dead ### 1/5 — Rank mode does not work, token bonus too penny *2026-07-29, version 5.4.3* Since the patch on 22/7/2026, rankmode does not work in my daytime. The token bonus too penny alsor (1 time the token paid for each completed quest). That leads to less effort to make fleet and use 5x boost (costly). This bonus should be changed to 50 times (e.g 50k token) after fleet and 5x boost ### 1/5 — FFA IS RUINING THIS GAME! *2026-07-28, version 5.4.3* I absolutely can’t stand playing this game in FFA!!! To only have that as an option while my 5v5 sits and never loads a game is completely BULLS***!!! ### 1/5 — Favoritism at its finest *2026-07-22, version 5.4.3* The in game moderators will support the top guilds in banning anyone they lose matches to. These top guilds will spam report players that they don’t like and get them banned or change banned. Meanwhile the game itself still can’t figure out fair matchmaking. Total pay to win game that enables top guilds players to act, or harass anyone they wish, while doing the same will get someone banned. Active hacks are available for this game. Catering to specific players/guilds is the norm. Rules for thee and not for me is their overall mantra. ### 1/5 — Dog water *2026-07-05, version 5.4.2* Why is it that I’m trying to start over and I can’t bc my game will not let me go to a different screen I can’t delete the data bc there isn’t any but yet I can’t go and click anything I already did the step it asked me on the game and now I’m back at it and im tired of games doing this especially made by this developer ### 1/5 — Xếp trận cực khì lệch pha *2026-06-23, version 5.4.0* Hệ thống ghép trận quá chênh lệch sức mạnh, tạo người mới chơi cảm giác không muốn chơi game nữa chứ không phải là sẽ nạp để mạnh hơn đâu ### 1/5 — Tiempo de espera *2026-06-17, version 5.4.0* Juego esto desde que salió, hace muchos años, era de lo mejor, pero ahora tarda más de 20min para meterte a una partida o incluso más ### 1/5 — App treo lỗi *2026-06-16, version 5.4.0* App lỗi k chơi đc. Treo tân thủ. Khỏi chơi ### 1/5 — Developers Ruined This Game *2026-06-14, version 5.4.0* This game was great when it was actually 4 vs 4, but now its 1 vs 1 with bots. They put an event about every 3 or 4 days where its 4 vs 4 or 5 vs 5 but otherwise its 1 vs 1. I will say there is a “ranked” option but the wait time for a game is over 3min! (More than what it takes to play a round). So sad. Also. If you write a bad review they take away your ability to post in the chat on the game lol ## Most praised reviews (10 highest-rated) ### 5/5 — Loooong time player *2026-08-16, version 5.4.5* If they can make game matching faster this maybe an all time legend ### 5/5 — đồng đội ranked như cặc *2026-07-26, version 5.4.3* thề đm cho chơi với bot hoặc dd ngu mệt vc t chơi fixer thì chúng nó thích lao cái đầu lồn vào team địch bắn repair bolt ko cứu đc chúng nó chết hết r team địch bắt đầu target MỖI fixer 10/10 phải phục thù ### 5/5 — Awesome game *2026-07-25, version 5.4.3* It’s a great game a little pay to win but you can still have fun without money my favourite boat is the medical one I’d like to see more added without ruining the game and you sometimes have to wait a while for a match Great game and the dev fix bugs frequently so I’m not sure why everyone is complaining but sometimes the teams are unfair ### 5/5 — Great game *2026-07-20, version 5.4.3* More people need to play this game it’s soooo good ### 5/5 — Game hay, hãy cải thiện thời gian chờ ghép trận *2026-07-06, version 5.4.2* Game hay, hãy cải thiện thời gian chờ ghép trận ### 5/5 — Battle Bay OG *2026-07-02, version 5.4.2* I’ve been playing this game from its early years. There is no game as good as this one. That being said it’s sad to see how much the game has been broken over the years. These days players disappear and reappear somewhere else. They are slightly moved out of the way or a perfect shot. They have a sputtering lag when they get into a bad situation. Still a great game however they need to sync the players to make it the epic game it once was BadnBougie777 ### 5/5 — Melhor jogo que existe! *2026-06-24* Pena que foi abandonado pela Rovio e tem poucos players novos. ### 5/5 — Amazing game *2026-06-21, version 5.4.0* This was a game that I played a lot from my childhood, I thought it would be fun to continue playing it and oh was I right! This a bunch of new ships that I’m not familiar with which is fun. I did decide to go ahead and restart my account because I felt a little rusty so I wanted to restart so I was with the other rusty players. My only recommendation is to help with the matchmaking. as a level five I am matchmaking against players who have fully maxed out purple torpedoes, which is not very fun to deal with considering I have almost 3000 HP and I’m dying in one shot. But other than that slight hiccup this game is very fun. Highly recommend! ### 5/5 — Good to see u *2026-06-06, version 5.4.0* I play after 5 year still same game ### 5/5 — 옛날아이패드 계정은 날라갔지만 ㅠㅠ 그래도좋아요!!>_< *2026-06-02, version 5.4.0* 완벽 그자체 --- *Data collected daily from the US App Store and indexed by [AppsHunter](https://appshunter.io/).
