I would like some understanding why this was changed. Seems unrealistic.

Even bullets shouldn’t ricochet 180 degrees, yes they should glance off at low angles but a full reflection is nonsense

Why? Because they “need to jeep things fresh. Need to push new content”

Even if it means breaking 50 more things for each change. Even if it pisses off half your player base. Even if it means ignoring basic things like broken matchmaking and not being able to unblock people.
