Less player --> less access into matches --> Smurfing --> matches no longer accessible even for smurf account --> Register another smurf account.
Conclusion: It made more smurfs.

I hope you can produce empirical data indicating that an account you faced indeed is a smurf, otherwise I couldn't believe you.
I want to be able to discuss this, but unless you show something in regards to your claims and stop being a fuzzwad and be respectful and polite and nontoxic (because being angry only hurts you), I'm afraid this conversation will never happen. Give us something to look at.
Can't handle the sauce?

actually what i like is my posts on the Steam forums get followed up by C05 telling them to do what i suggested. riot. these folks may not be half bad, now that they dumped the horse lady.

smurfs are a negative thing in the game but the game has bigger issues. Something the devs could do potentially is link steam accounts with hawken accounts, it won't make it impossible to smurf (it's really hard to entirely eradicate the issue) but it'll defeinitely make it more tedious to smurf.

From the most recent dev stream this looks to be the case

It solves nothing, they just need a list of email address. And I've seen ppl with a HUGE list.

they are ugly zealots. normal peoples (which is most), quite lazy to do this.
example:
1) i can create smurf right now, just write a random popular email (Jerry55@gmail.com, it is 100% exist) name and got it. 5 sec registration and i'm in game, after game i can forg?t my nickname/pass, because after several hrs my mmr will be ~2k.
2) with human verify i need my own email. i need go to website, register new mail, spent several minutes to veryfy email with phone (like gmail), registered in hwk. spent about 2-5 min for all work. it is too long, life did not prepare me for this.
by the way, hawken problem ?1 still not in smurfs. smurfs - it is only a aftermath, fighting with this is a waste of time, u should fight with a core of problem.

Steam account linking will be mandatory so that will make it more work for smurfs. There's really no way to stop people from making more accounts for a free to play game other then eliminating the reason for them to do so (get rid of MMR), or make staying on one account more rewarding. Losing all your "stuff" by making a new account every day doesn't feel that bad when new accounts can basically access everything right from the start and have enough money to buy any mech after playing one game.

so... basically you don't have access to everything. hawken pay-2-win, lol xD
This is really most of ridiculous and stupid things which i've seen in f2p games. Seriously. Even pay-for-inventory system in a korean MMO not looking soooooo bad.
last time i've buy all colors and crosshairs which i don't have, and i spent 20.000+ HC. 20 fuzzy bunnyng thousand. it is just ridiculous. who want to play in game like this in right mind?

I hate smurfs too but it's not because of the community being bad. It's the low player count
Life is like a good book,
It makes more sense as you get into it ;D

There is still a better way to deter folks from creating smurf/alt accounts.
First: do all the email verification and steam account linking that's been suggested. It will have a minimal impact, but it's a start.
Second: Make the introductory tutorial more comprehensive and MAKE IT MANDATORY. It's super easy to skip past the tutorial at this point and go straight to the game. And beefing up the tutorial to include more realistic in-game scenarios and skills will be a big help to actual new players. If a person has to play ALL THE WAY through a comprehensive tutorial before they can join online matches - they'll be far less likely to want to spend the time.
Third: Mandatory Tutorial for each game type. Yup, when you join a game type for the first time on an account, you should have to play through an entire guided match of that game type, AND WIN, before you can join a real online match. Just like the second point, this will be a huge help for new players... and for everyone else... as players will have a much better understanding of what they're supposed to be doing. However, this will be a huge inconvenience to veteran players who are trying to start a smurf account.
So, no, it won't stop them all... but nothing ever will. Deterrents that also benefit actual new players, however, are brilliant.
To be serious for a moment this is just a joke
