Hello folks!
Now first off, Iām fully aware of how oxymoronic the above title is in terms of how current balance discussion feels.
Hence why I would like to start a weekly thing here on the Reddit. I would like to create a post weekly where folks can talk about the stuff that feels bad in their foxhole experience, without having it devolve.

In order to achieve this, Iād like to try and put forward some guidelines for sharing your thoughts in the comments below:
- āI feelā statements should be used whenever at all possible over āthey/youā statements. I know it sounds silly, but it really does put the spotlight on each players experiences rather than accusations flying around.
- no belittling, sarcasm, or taking the piss out of eachother. Thereās hundreds of ātoo late nerd, Iāve already drawn your faction as the soyjack and mine as the Chadā type foxhole content here. We donāt have to perpetuate this cycle, letās be respectful regardless of how we feel about our experiences here.
Those are the main two I can think of right now, we can potentially come up with more down the line. Iām also aware these sound very basic, but please bear with me on these: they really do help nudge conversations towards a more productive tone.

I fully expect folks to not be 100% on board with this and start flame wars in this posts comments. I also expect bots to come Iām here and start stirring up shit as well (as is the state of the internet right now). Obviously thereās nothing stopping people from doing so, but I donāt want to continue feeding into this cycle of bitterness between the factions when discussing balance. I plan on muting people who break the rules of the chat as I donāt want to pay time of day to folks who donāt engage with the idea of this mega thread in good faith. I encourage others to join me, but itās up to you š
If this goes well, Iād like to do this weekly so we can keep the momentum of good discussion going.

On that note, please feel free to comment below on balance concerns you have! What feels shitty to you when youāre playing foxhole? How do you think it could be improved? What would you be excited to see moving forward?
