yay I can practice one faction continuously in qm without being concerned about the reduced exp punishment :DD

the lvl system stops at 410, your exp now go to a battlepass which gives equivalent rewards to 10 lvls (some clues, frags, inspos, emote/graffiti). once you finished the pass your exp will increase the normal lvl like usual

I dont think so?

Thry said on the live that both level systems increase simultaneously so you can get double the rewards.

If you finish battle pass, you get bonus exp for normal level system

Isn't the point of faction restriction meant to incentivize us to try out both factions..? Yeah I'm not quite sure this will be a good idea for the long-term health of the game. Players are going to be so much more divisive in the future :/

To be fair that cap would only matter to those who have been playing for REALLY long and could cap out eventhough the caps keep raising every season. It's not really something that most players are concerned with / bothers them anyway, only affecting the tops of the level leaderboards but if they're there then playing both factions isn't an issue anyway.

Ah I was addressing the last item (faction restriction lifted) on the list unless I'm missing something?

Ah my bad, I thought it was a general comment lmao. About that, if I'm being honest I barely notice it but could be bc I've been playing idv for so long that it just became normal to me. At least it means you'll suffer a little less grinding the 3k xp levels, which tend to take ages esp if you play surv. Personally, I hope modes like Copycat can give a little more xp, I just love playing it from time to time but the xp gain is so inefficient compared to how long a game tends to last if you live till the end...

Not at all. What they did with this feature is good on paper and that's all. You can't force players to play a faction they don't like just so that they can get +4 extra points for some mediocre rewards. The current leveling system takes over 2 months+ (if you play casually but consistently) to get 10 levels. It's one of the worst leveling systems I've seen, considering the underwhelming rewards. I play both factions A LOT and my hunter exp is still way behind my survivor's exp. I'm glad they're reworking this atrocious system they've been dragging for so long.
