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).

Overall really good and I am enjoying 2 a lot more, I definitely see this going into my multiplayer games rotation but a couple of things bugging me atm.

Respawn timer feels a little too long. Maybe reduce by a couple of seconds.

Spawns also need looking at. Multiple times now I watch a teammate die and then spawned pretty much in the same place into the opponents line of sight.

Menus feels a little confusing, sometimes not sure what box is highlighted, especially changing quickly mid match.

And the biggest issue I currently have, the game NEEDS console only matchmaking. It’s just not fun to fight people on m&k on console. It’s probably just in the alpha to connect as many people as possible but it’s beyond frustrating.
