Dialing back is good.
However, does not address fact it still is a nerf (not even acknowlodging the grandfathering/compensation issues so many expressed – and I repeated was my big issue in voice several times with you) from what many prepared and contributed for the new season.
Of that, I am still disappointed and struggling with the absence of apparent understanding how this impacts individual players.
Still a “rug” pulled out from under, just a little less abruptly.
To go with Wise’s links in the other thread, here is the ocd thread I refered to:
The lesson of importance of grandfathering or compensating for nerf still is unlearned. Your success will be much greater if you take this lesson to heart and employ it.
It was in middle of the afformentioned thread I uninstalled egs and withdrew from all things hws related, planning to never reinstall. Sat out season 9, decided to tentatively return in 10. Gave no support for 1st 2 months to assess whether or not issues were improved. Only recent, in 3rd month of season began contributing again, including eb carryover on both servers…
My point is this — 1) this is no threat, just information for you to ponder, 2) you are no longer just technical gamers, you are business 1st — for greatest success, when you make changes, pay attention to including ways to minimize the negative impact on your customers.
Negative impacts on current customers will ALWAYS hurt your bottom line.
Not all customers are created equal, don’t hurt those who arent creating the problems you are trying to solve.
Final thought, you have the fortunate circumstance of centuries of collective experience and wisdom on this server, from around the world, given for free. Suggest you consider and act on it more closely. You’ll be more successful.
Ignore it at your own cost.
