LEAP recently received a new update that brought weapon changes and bug fixes. These changes may not be final because the game is still in early access and continuously being developed.
M7 Tactical Changes
In this update, the M7 Tactical received the most number of changes. Starting with the weapon’s rate of fire now decreased from 1.0 to 0.75, which means players have to be more precise. The damage per shot is also decreased from 10 to 9. You might want to check better alternatives after these nerfs.
The reload speed, however, has increased from 0.45 to 0.75, which should help players counterfire during sticky situations.
Miscellaneous
You can finally check the server name/number displayed on the Leaderboards to keep track of it. Just hold Tab in-game to display the server details on the bottom left.
