YES!!! 100% AGREED. I've been saying this since forever.
Also Katukov is just butthurt cuz he's also a very emotional biased balancer. He wants his faction to win he doesn't care about the experience of other players.
100% agreed. Players have their agendas, they want fun for themselves. Devs have their agendas, they want the game to succeed and be fun for as much people as possible.
You definitely said something valuable, more valuable than any balance thread.
Relic, make your game. Select a few people you want from the community for guidance and feedback, and ignore most of the whining. The community don't know what they want, let alone want other players to have fun too
Katukov might be pissed because the community balance team is pushing a breakthrough/jaeger armor x lefh meta every single god forsaken match without having a real counter to it
all he said is that "community balance sux", and while thats true, this franchise has never seen balance in it's entire lifespan, including when lelic themselves balanced the game
