With the latest update (Leviathan), there have been issues with how the combo system works that have gone undocumented in the Patch Notes. It is currently a significant topic of discussion in the Discord amongst the higher-ranked players who have been around for awhile for a few reasons, but the main thing is that players don’t know if this is a bug or if it’s an intended scoring change.
If this is a bug in the scoring/combo system, it would be nice to get word that this is the case, and if it is an intended change, likewise it would be beneficial to be given some explanation as to the intention behind the change. Does this lower the skill ceiling, making it easier for players to compete? Is there a certain playstyle or gameplay loop the developers want to enforce with this change? Etc. At the moment we as players can only speculate.
Hello, it’s been more than a month since the last update on this issue. Has anything substantial been done regarding this issue?
In particular, most players simply want to know whether this was a bug that needs fixing, or is an intentional change and why the change was implemented. Whether it will or won’t be changed/reverted is mostly irrelevant as much as whether it was intentional or not.
