The problem is skilled/hardcore players are not the target market. This game is made for the new player. Understanding that this is a business and it's an attempt to increase profits, I believe it will have the opposite effect. The idea that these decisions were made for the better of the game is laughable; it's the t ball of fps's. Everyone gets a trophy...This is supposed to be a skill based game where you are rewarded for reaction times and developed skill. Sprint out times and ads have consistently been nerfed over the years taking more and more of the skill out of the game (I understand the ads is consistent with recent titles). Develope a game with good movement speed, allow player reaction times to account for something and a counter to camping (dead silence). Adjust the minimap so you can see targets as well. I don't mind the move away from the mindless 3 lanes but you can't do that and nerf movement, dead silence and ads/sprintouts. If you're really looking for revenue stop trying to appease one target market and focus on making a skill based game. Do that and success is inevitable otherwise you will see many leave the franchise for good. My two cents...
