Source? I don’t recall Fatshark mentioning community feedback being the reason for removal of the guaranteed crits. I don’t know where this “majority of the community” is coming from.
The official reason is:
not because of community feedback. (The original post talks about why that reason is flawed and inconsistent.) Most community feedback I’ve linked above and in this thread itself are not in favor of the removal of the guaranteed crits.
I didn’t miss it, I just didn’t quote it as I’m specifically only talking about the removal of the guaranteed crits (like in the original post), to keep my post on-topic. I think those are actually reasonable nerfs in exchange for adding the guaranteed crits back. Either the mod’s changes or pre-Chaos Wastes behavior is better than the Shade we currently have.
