I don't mind the new BM. I find it relaxing not having to constantly mash buttons. That isn't everyone's cup of tea though and that is fine. To say that the current BM is roughly the same playstyle as the old BM is idiotic. The playstyle concept of the class drastically changed with the focus change.
