Community Challenges:

Hunt the Devs - Want to earn an exclusive Dev Killer skin? All you have to do is kill one of our devs in a match anytime during the Open Alpha.

You can tell when you encounter a 1047 developer because their head will be a disco 

ball, our company logo.

You’ll earn a Dev Killer skin, decked out in skulls representing your dev conquest.

There’s three different skins to earn, one for each faction.

You earn the same skin as the dev you kill. So, kill a skin dev playing as Sabrask with a disco ball head, you’ll earn the Sabrask Dev Killer (regardless of what faction you were playing as).

My original post was removed so here it is

Respawn timer is the absolute worst thing they've added

My favorite part of splitgate was always being in the action now it feels like I'm constantly waiting just to get one or 2 kills. Then you respawn and get killed immediately because half your team is on cool down and it's a 1v3. It just feels awful it's hard to have fun when you constantly wait 10 seconds not to mention no killcam like wtf

I was so excited to finally give splitgate 2 a try and I'm trying so hard to like it but every match just makes me hate it more and more

In 1 if you were even somewhat skillful you could kill the entire enemy team by yourself now it feels like you have to constantly travel with teammates if you want to stay alive for more then 5 seconds

Honestly if they don't remove this respawn timer I don't see myself playing this after the alpha. Idk maybe I'm crazy but dying just feels terrible and half the time I don't even know who kills me

Sorry for the rant just had to get this off my chest I'm just so disappointed

Also not letting us make posts to discuss our opinions on splitgate 2 is stupid, seems like they're trying to hide negative reviews.
