According to The Coalition, a fix is under investigation for players that aren't seeing post-match rewards or that are experiencing random disconnects, the latter of which is something I've personally seen a considerable number of players complaining about. Meanwhile, the game is removing the 15 and 30 minute "timeout" penalties in order to reduce impact of disconnects. In other words, you won't get punished for these disconnects anymore.
The Coalition also admits that post-match tier skill points are inaccurate and not consistently representative of a player's individual performance. That said, a fix has been identified and is in the works as you read this.
Further, the developer is aware that matches in select regions have higher pings than they should, plus unacceptable wait times. According to the developer, a potential cause has possibly been identified, so expect a fix soon-ish. Lastly, gameplay tuning is coming:
"We are reviewing weapon balance tuning in Versus with a current focus on the Lancer, Breaker, Markza and Melee," writes the developer. "There is a new Lancer tuning coming soon with more updates to other weapons coming in the future."
