ITT: People saying a mid- to high-end GPU released in 2013 should not be able to handle a game released in 2010. What?

I don't think the game failed because the premise failed. I think it was mismanaged and milked dry. Opportunities for solid services were passed over in favour of a quick buck. Anti-cheat sucked for the longest time, and so did the servers. Indeed players were fed kool-aid about just how *much* was being done, how great the server hardware was, etc. You can't keep that up without creating a rotten climate, and we're still enjoying that climate right now. You're suggesting the course the game has been on for years now is a course that players don't want to see changed. I think most players do. I hope the game will now take a step back from the piles and piles of sh*tty reskins and ARMAS junk and focus on quality. Quality of servers, netcode, balance, engine.

New management deserves the benefit of the doubt. Let's hold off on the cynicism for a while. Please, PLEASE see to permabanning cheaters and restoring server & game performance to what it was ~7 years ago. Undo that horrible bloom while you're at it.
