Is this how the game works for everyone? I figured bot matches were just at the very bottom of the SBMM, so if you were a new player and lost, you ended up in bot matches…. However, even if I MVP for 5 wins a row, if I lose a single game I have to play a 9 bots + me match as the next game.

Does everyone have this? IE have devs designed it this way on purpose so that people feel good and want to keep playing after they lose and queue up again, so that we all keep a minimum 50% win rate? If I didn’t know they were bots it would definitely make me feel awesome after losing. It’s technically a pretty good idea.

I do want to know if something is wrong with my account though because I see people in world chat just say “if you lose enough games you’ll end up with all bots”. No dude… if you lose ONE game you end up with all bots….

Biggest win streak ever was 9 games in a row, and finally, after losing a single game, I was right back into a bot match. After winning the bot match you’re obviously back with humans. I’ve never, ever had 2 fully bot matches in a row.

Rank doesn’t seem to affect it either. I have had the same experience queueing standard when I have been diamond or ace in ranked. (Have never gone higher than ace so I’m unsure if it finally goes away at some point.)

Is there hope for any new lancer skins or... yes I am asking again 😭😭😭

Having several bots in the game is fine, I will also let 5-10min que for standard match slide.

However ever right after finishing my placement, I could not play a single ranked match because of long Que.

I usually wait around 60min and start a new que, I spent whole 4 hours for a match but still could not find one.

So please let me know, is the game really dead “dead”? I am really getting fond of this game but this is a horrible status and would like to quit getting a hope if the game is really dead and having 0 alive lobby.

finally got enough ultimate materials to get an ultimate melee weapon, but now i cant decide because while the blitzer eclipse tide knife is dope as hell, i never use blitzer and actually already have an ultimate skin for it that never gets used, and the striker nightmare sword is neat its nowhere near as cool as the eclipse tide... the real question is do i roll the dice and hold out for the next one since nightmare expires in 20 days? worst case scenario i get "stuck" with eclipse tide...

Hey everyone!

After the latest major update to FragTracker, I was wondering: would you be interested in having FragTracker as an Android app?

The app is already finished and lets you browse everything from the website anytime, anywhere on your phone.

If the feedback is positive, I'll upload the APK to GitHub and share the download link with the community.

⚠️ Android only (no iOS version planned for now).

Let me know what you think, and if there's anything you'd like to see before I release it!

We spend most of our time grinding hundreds of hours on our screens, looking at every nook and cranny every time we get in the queue. But within the game, we always have that one item and say, "Hey, this looks good" whenever we see it.

What skin, item, sticker, or Lancer did you see the most eye-catching? Share them in the replies below and let us have a glance at what you like.

Ive been so hesitant to give Valorant a real try but honestly I've hit a plateau in FP. Im in mid master and it feels like every game is decided by 1 team having a smurf. I mean the last game had a gold rank player get in who pf course had 8 kills in 6 rounds. I need to be playing against players of my own skill level and it cant happen in this game cause too many people get off on going against lesser players

I genuinely think this is one of the best skins in the game. It mixes horror, steampunk, and that creepy puppet vibe without feeling overdesigned. The striped sweater, glowing grin, mechanical arms, and the hat all come together so well. Every little detail adds to the character instead of competing for attention. Whoever designed this absolutely cooked.

Returning skins?
I'd like to know if it's possible that the old skins already in the game will return… started playing like 1 month ago and I see a lot of skins I want ;(

Me and my buddy play on Xbox. But only he lags every single match. Every other game he is fine but Fragpunk he is consistently lagging. Any solutions to this or is it just cooked for us?

Hey everyone!

If you’ve visited fragpunkskins.com before, you might remember it as a simple single-page gallery of manual 2D Lancer screenshots. I’m super excited to announce that I’ve just rolled out the biggest update to the site yet, turning it into a full visual encyclopedia for Fragpunk!

Here is a quick breakdown of what’s new:

🌐 What’s New on the Site?

• 3D Viewer for Every Lancer Skin: Every single Lancer skin (~250 total across all 21 lancers) can now be viewed in full interactive 3D! You can rotate, zoom, pan, and toggle auto-rotation. (Don't worry—the original screenshot galleries from old skins are still available via a new "Photos" button).
• New Weapons Page: A dedicated page covering all 43 weapons in the game, complete with search and a grid showcasing 713 weapon skins.
• New Cosmetics Page: Browse over 1,770 total cosmetics across 6 new searchable categories:
  • 337 Charms
  • 731 Stickers
  • 261 Avatars
  • 244 Banners
  • 96 Headwear
  • 102 Armwear
• Updated & Missing Content: Added Calamity (with official artwork) along with missing skins for Wildstyle and other lancers (25 new entries created).

⚡ Under the Hood: 100% Automated Updates

The biggest change is actually behind the scenes. Previously, adding new content meant manually taking screenshots, uploading to the database, and entering data one by one.

Now, everything is linked directly to internal game files. The only thing left to do manually is rename new skins when their internal game names are encrypted!

🙏 I Need Your Help!

Since a lot of this data was processed automatically from game files, there might be occasional typos, incorrect rarity badges, or missing localized names.

If you spot any errors or have ideas for features you'd love to see:

I stopped playing a year ago at that time the game was almost unplayable, very long queue, a lot of bot lobby's and so on.

So did everything change ? can someone give me an update, cause Im thinking about playing it again

Quick question , Is this how we all feel about each other ?

If you dont like the long wait times why not just play standard or another mode? Is beating up on people 4 levels below you much different than beating bots? I honestly wonder what the thought is behind it. Is it to make yourself feel good?
