If what IWS says is true-
"If you scored less than 100 WPs and your team won, they won despite you."
"If you scored less than 100 WPs and your team lost, they lost because of you."
This is beginning to feel like another mishandled DUST event. All matches count, if you fail to get 100 wp in a victory its counted as a non-win and against you. aka afking this event won't work as well So if you get entered into a battle the moment before it is lost the game counts against you? I really doubt that. Unfortunately yes... I would like to suggest to have a 'no count' for joining a match with like oh say 1 minute let on ambush or 10% clones left.
I would like clarification as well. I have entered at least 3+ matches where it was either on the Defeat Screen or when my team had less than 10-15% armour while the opposing team still had 80% of their shield.
The win conditions for this event are completely reliant on the match making system and it has been set up with multiple ways to loose but only one way to win.
Based on what IWS has said the loose conditions are as follows:
1. Your side wins but you did not get 100 WP - This counts as a loss for you personally.
2. Your side looses but you did not score 100 WP - you loose
3. Your side looses but you did score 100 WP or more - you loose
4. You spawn onto the wrong side of a pub stomp late into the game - you loose
5. You spawn onto the defeat screen - you loose
6. You get to the war barge see a decent corp squad or 2 on the otherside and leave. You select a new battle and get spawned into that match anyway - so you loose.
Win Criteria
1. Join match, early or late, your side wins and you get 100 WP - you win.
All matches, the 1st 30-40-50, are counted regardless of your actions.
From the Event FAQ
If I play more than the minimum number of matches, which ones are counted for the event?
Only the win/loss rate of the week's first 30, 40 and 50 matches [U]in which you earn at least 100 war points during the event will be considered for the purpose of qualifying for the event rewards
I also interpreted this to mean that only matches where you scored 100 WPs or more counted. |

Just wait till the end of the match (you can usually tell the winner by then) and if it looks like you're going to win, go kill 2 people. Not that the rewards are worth wasting that time though... This is true, I have been in a lot of matches where 10 people have 50 or less points until the last 5 min, but it is going to be hard for CCP to come up with a system that is both fair and prevents people from abusing it. If they can not figure it out, except by trial and error, maybe they could actually seek the communities input and maybe have a competition for us to come up with the best way to have events? yeah, that's exactly what's happening in half the matches I'm playing tonight
I would have preferred it if it was simply play 30,40,50 matches and get 100 + WP to earn the rewards and say win 20 games over the week to earn a special higher grade reward. At the moment winning and loosing is reliant on match making to a fair extent making the result to random and less skill or perseverance based.
The grind for this event was massive and I have no idea if I will get any of the prizes due to the confusion over the rules especially with the comments being left by IWS. |
