There would only be boosting through server hopping if you got full LP for whatever amount of time you spend playing the map in progress. If you'd only get a percentage of LP according to how much of the map you played, I don't see the issue. What I do see however, is some players joining a map in p...

I think the server browser in general could use some tweaking. I think it's been said before that it should really list the ping. Yes, I get that info when trying to join a server but it's a lot of hassle to go there just to find out your ping is too high. My second suggestion would be to add server...

tested this today, played 7 maps and got switch every single time. Is there no randomness to the balancing?

The balancing keeps getting weirder, I don't know if I'm to only one who has that but when the server balances, it always switches me, every damn time! How does this work? It's really getting annoying I never get to start a new map properly

true, saw it yesterday. For some reason I only got the update yesterday but was able to play before.

I played a couple of hours yesterday, just got the game the day before and was really hoping SM could be the game to finally get me back into online gaming. I must say, I have the same issue as the OP, I feel there is too much prediction spamming necessary to get a kill. The game is fun, don't get m...

I might be reviving a dead topic but as a female who has been playing shooters for more than 10 years, I'd really like to see a female skin.
It's just a game and the skin you play with isn't that important but I've always found it a "really nice to have" when a game offers female skins.
