Outdated MMO that has lost what once made it special.

Membership is overpriced and JAGEX overly nerf content.

Attempting to collect boss drops or unique items is miserable due to the lack of bad luck mitigation.

This game does not respect your time or money at all, with unreasonably long grinds for no other reason to keep you subscribed for as long as possible.

Speaking of subscriptions, prices now increase by unreasonable amounts (far above inflation) each year for a single character.

Additionally, a lot of the games integrity was previously ruined by pay to win loot boxes (the now removed treasure hunter).

Play other games, not this.

I've always been a fan of the original worms games, seeing a new "Very Positive" worms game available I thought this game might actually be decent.

The game itself is good and is fun to play, the vehicles, turrets, buildings, crafting, and turrets are a nice interesting addition to the game.

My main problem is the fact vehicles are overpowered, using a helicopter you can fly all the way across the map, shoot the enemy team and fly back again.

The mechs are similar and provide the user the ability to hover and jump across most/all of the map.

This is very evident when you play ranked matches and the first person to spawn their worms chooses the helicopter instantly.

The game in its current state takes out a lot of the skill, you can just craft mega bunker busters, for instance, doing 60 damage a pop or even save up for a concrete donkey, armageddon or OMG Strike.

The ranked play as it currently stands takes out all the skill that should be in the game, every ranked game I have played consisted of spawning on/near the helicopter and attempting to control the helicopter the remainder of the game.

When you play online with friends the game itself is much better -providing you both are on the same operating system or you can't play together- as you can turn off a lot of the settings that break the game in its current status.

However, you cannot spawn AI while making your own public/private games, there is no way to set a player limit, E.G. 2-6 players max and when people do join you can't change the game to a private game resulting in you kicking people repeatedly if you don't want a 6 player game.

There are no game modes like Forts anymore and you are stuck just doing the standard team death match each game online.

I can't knock the story mode or training missions aside from the AI being a bit too easy.

To summarise, if you like single player games or you want to play online with a friend you can do this in the game, the game is missing a lot of customisation that was implemented in original worms games e.g. Armageddon, and you cannot play with AI and a friend at the same time.

So, I wouldn't recommend the game in its current state, Team17, you have some work to do.
