> I cannot speak further on whether changes will be made, but please be aware that if we decide to make fixes and/or changes, that it will take some time. We will need to iterate on them several times, test them, AND fit them into our update schedule.

I don’t think any reasonable person would take issue with this. Of course changes take time to implement and get right. But aren’t the recent feedback threads about pure faction events just restating problems and ideas that have been very vocally expressed for over a year already?

I can understand why people wouldn’t feel optimistic now, or lay off on the criticism, when this is not a new part of the game anymore, none of these problems are new, and the response to feedback has been so slow. Was there really no chance to iterate and test any solutions at any time in 2019? What has changed to make this possible now?And what are we supposed to do in the meantime, after we’ve already been told for months that it wasn’t working as intended and that something would be done about it?

For all anyone knows, this could be the same as all the previous times we’ve been told things about pure faction team runs. We still have no timeline and no solid commitment. Another year could pass and we could still be told that our feedback is being collected and passed on, but will take time to act on. What’s different this time that people should be convinced by?
