We should change the way you gain XP in SG As we all know, it takes AGES 👴 to level up in SG, So I was thinking we should make it easier to gain levels in the next update, Because it’s absolutely grueling in leveling up it literally took me a week of playing SG not nonstop to level up 4 LEVELS!!!. That’s extremely low, and the amount of players maxed at SG is extremely less for a reason which is this very slow leveling up process. I love maxing gamemodes but seriously I don’t think I’ll ever max SG in my lifetime 😭. This update could be followed by a small level update with new cosmetics 🎮 ---

I highly agree with this, survival games is my most played game and I have been playing for more than 6 years. But I’m only level 26. ---

SG is very bad for XP, as is GroundWars. Both of these games need a major XP overhaul. ---

Agreed, definitely, it takes so long for both of these games and aren’t enjoyable ---

xp gains should get buffed a tad bit, it took me like 8 hours to level up to 10 from 9. makes me feel like they dont have enough time to polish the game but they add new microtransactions and stop playing tbh. bout to go touch grass ---

Welcome to the forums, I agree. Like the only way to achieve high levels in this game is to grind for hours and hours, and most people don’t have that much time to play. ---

I disagree, the XP gain is relatively good in my opinion. You’re able to level up quickly by getting lots of kills. Is there a specific part to it you want to see changed? Because overall it’s in a good state. ---

Everyone knows Survival games takes significantly longer for you to level up, I want that to change. I would prefer to having SG gain XP like all the other game modes. ---

but… it does? The XP charts for sg and sw are really similar, with sg giving less xp for a win than sw, but giving more for kills, plus the bonus for reaching deathmatch. I don’t see how it doesn’t have an xp gain to the standard of other modes ---

Bump! Xp is sg is awful, especially with 50 levels. Reaching level 10 feels like it takes ages, and that’s supposed to be the easy levels. The progression of leveling in this game is insuperable. As Hive got around to changing the xp in a random update for gw, hopefully they can sneak in another update like that, but for sg. Edit on June 1st 2026: Another bump! Sg isn’t that bad of a game, but it has many factors causing its low -ish playercounts. One of them is how discouraging the level system is in it, thats the part that turns me away from it. Making level progression feel more rewarding in this game can go a longgg way on keeping players on it. This game barely receives updates, but has a higher player count than a lot of newer games, so it most definitely still has potential. The other factors causing this game to feel awful are for a different post
