Weekly skill cap with increased soft cap is the best option....thx for listening. If the softcap is 1 wp = 1sp then it wouldn't matter if there is a cap on the softcap or not. Because 1000 sps will suffice if you guys are adamant on keeping the skill progression, relatively uniform.
I would vote for no cap on the softcap because it isn't every game where you hit 2500 sps in one match. But again, it wouldn't matter. Or, do a 1wp = .5 sp with no cap on the softcap, that may be better. That way, every wp will still count. Because I can see guys stop going hard once they've hit 1K wps in one match |

Because I can see guys stop going hard once they've hit 1K wps in one match Hit the 1k wp in match and go hide, no risking of losing suits etc as you've already hit the max, besides the cap punishes the good casuals because they won't be able to get the extra sp to help keep up.
If players would hide after hitting 1k wp, then they wouldn't be playing now. Because you can have 5 wps and still get only 50 sps in the match.
Casuals will never be on the same level as hardcores. We all have to accept that....that's why they're called casuals. They may not even hit the hardcap to touch the softcap. So, it will not affect them one way or another. The softcap is only there to limit hardcore gamers. It doesn't really affect casuals as they rarely hit the hardcap. |

LISTEN, TO SOLVE THE PROBLEM BETWEEN NO SOFTCAP OR 1K SOFTCAP IS:
Just to base the softcap on a percentage of wps. So, something like 1wp = .25%sp...so the better you do, the more sp you earn without astronomical sp gains after every game.
So, if you earn 2000 wps, you'll earn 500sps. Small enough so that hardcores don't run away but enough to allow the hardcore to feel like they're earning something. Btw, I consider myself a relatively, hardcore player |

The weekly cap with out a limit I think suits my play style best. I dont like having to try and log in or missing skill points because I dont have the time to play. I would rather get all my points over the course of two days and not have to worry about the cap deterring the fun I am having playing the game.
If you hit the hardcap in 2 days, then you're doing well. Softcap returns aren't significant enough to matter a great deal |

give a chance for people who are away to continue growing
There will be no chance a hardcore gamers will just earn more and more sp...thus, increasing the lead that they may already have |
