[2021] Mediatonic is too reactive and it's hurting the game.

Whilst the invisible platform is still present on RF and there are issues for some players grabbing, we don't want it being this high and frequent. The volume of complaints is considerable and it would be much worse for us to ignore that than address it I think.

In terms of being too reactive - I am not sure there is such a thing, because we don't make reactive changes at sacrifice of other changes as your post says. It isn't one team that go and fix something, and come back, and do what they were previously doing. Work goes on in tandem. Most work that is currently going ahead is not tangible to players at the moment but will come into fruition soon.

Being responsive and open to changes and feedback is great and not something we will stop - whether it becomes too frequent, or too infrequent, is something we'll monitor. No change we make will ever make all players happy - there is no such thing unfortunately - and we know that. It's about trying things and seeing what works best, very rarely are changes permanent until we're done experimenting. The game is super young and there will be many more changes in the future.

Ah, I should have been specific - I pull on that example because I thought out of the Discord message, that is what stood out most to me, as we're tweaking Main Show regularly which - I suppose is your point here haha!

Understand that the side-effects and the unintentional whiplash would be frustrating across the board, though. We're getting better at that but we still have some room to grow there!

I'll still absolutely pass this feedback on regardless, but for example, longer Main Shows has already been flagged and is something we are going to keep an eye on (what I see most at the moment is 6 rounds which, if it is the majority, is still quite long imo!

Squads we recently adjusted whilst we continue to fix it as (much to our dismay as well) the issue is complicated and needs a lot of testing, and physics changes (specifically climbing, grabbing, and collisions) are constantly being looked at as well, to give some solace. It's just so much more goes into those sorts of fixes and changes than just main show changes :)

Thank you for being receptive to a discussion on it, these exchanges always make my day! 7 rounders is a LOT - so I'll add that to our overall chats about main show and we'll continue monitoring that. I hope you have fun playing in the meantime while these things come together!
