If the way the servers are now wasn't bad/unfun the server would still have more of the old regs but they moved on to other servers either made by themselves or another provider.
Which regs are they? People quit the game all the time. I clicked on 10 of the top players here
http://stats.skial.com/season/#/list/6/season/8 and they are all still playing on Skial.
There's absolutely no noticeable drop in the player count since the change was made.
I personally have no fun walking around not jumping at all or not very often and living with over 50% of hp because this was made for the (lets face it) trash tier players that don't know how to SJ in the first place/can't strafe etc.
The change does not stop you at jumping at all. You are free to jump, you just won't save a bunch of hp and end up with 90% of health left.
If a player has to learn to super jump to win then find a way to get it in their heads that they have to. Flash it on their screen in huge letters idc?
Did you not see it in chat every single time telling people to jump to win? I also removed crouch jump because people claimed that was the main reason noobs were so bad a jumping. Yet it still didn't help.
And this doesn't fix the issue that half the players like demos, spies, medics, and pyros can't damage a boss that's in the air 90% of the time and it is unfun for them.
It's so triggering personally to watch a player say "wow i think i did good for my first time as hale" and they win with 30k health remaining. You think any other semi-competitive game mode (or game in general) has that low of a learning curve? No is the correct answer.
This is a gross exaggeration if I've ever heard one. The win rate for bosses is still less than 50%.
Before I made all these changes, half the people on the server had noboss on. If I let people like you make the balancing decisions then our server would be as dead as the other vsh servers.
