It has. The combat has absolutely 100% improved over the last 6 months. With a few exceptions, community feedback has been received and applied pretty well.
With the exception of the cavalry skill ceiling in relation to the skill ceiling of other classes, every glaring combat issue has been addressed to some extent.
The people who are upset about balance changes constantly coming in are upset because they view those changes as an either/or situation with improvements in other areas and new content not being worked on as a result of the balance changes. If the community was given new maps at a steadier pace, improvements to the class system, server improvements and gamemode reworks ALONGSIDE the balance changes, nobody would have a problem with the continued tweaking of combat parameters and class balance.
