I enjoyed the overview video for the Winter Update, but it still irks me at the 1:58 mark when the new head of live service said, "One of the biggest pieces of feedback that we've gotten since we launched is that people really want a system that gives them XP points for just playing the game. The new match XP system actually rewards players for playing. As you're playing matches, you get XP."
Like, you guys REALLY did not consider anything else other than the challenge-based system that's been in place at all?!?
You called down the thunder, now reap the whirlwind
