What happened to this mod?

[Pavel]

Hello all. I came back to NI recently after almost a several months-long break only to find out that this just isn't the mod I started playing around 2 years ago. The infantry class seems to have become completely worthless (with a few exceptions). Pretty much every successful Hard or Rag game I played over the past few days was simply a mega cading + shooting/throwing spam; even the RGs couldn't find any use, not to mention the Zweis. I myself didn't feel exactly useless simply because I'm a legionary, but even then there was no point in me being an infantry hero - hell, I would have done more as a T4 Pikeman.

I guess this might be a result of most players having extremely high-tier equipment now, but I still think it should be addressed. Perhaps buffing Infantry hit points & melee damage (thinking of Full Invasion), or nerfing ranged damage, etc?

Thank you for reading this, and I'd love to see other people's opinions on this.
