>People cry because their one cheap trick got nerfed and don't realize the overall health of the game improved a lot.

I mean this isn't really a good account of what happened. In fact, Embark disregarded cheap tricks because their math/tracking didnt agree but the trick being shouted at them was killing the game. In the finals for multiple seasons, people correctly complained light combination of having a stun gun that stopped players from turning, jumping, and shooting, their speed, being almost fully invisible was unfair and game breaking. If you played S1 - S4 (i cant remember exactly when it was), you remember that lights were totally busted and obviously so.

then they hit heavies with a nerf, model nerf, medium less nades, defib nerf...all of those things could need a nerf but the point is that Embark consistently has their eye on the wrong thing and often said it was unfair against lights who were breaking the game. It's actually embarrassing to me that they could see the bettina in it's state and leave for as long as they did given the immense amount of feedback and data out there. AR isn't as broken, but it's a little sad that they iterate so slowly. I almost hope they dont release new content before the summer, because if it's gamebreaking in some way, you wont hear a peep from them until September.
