Twice in 1 hour this evening I have watched "BlueBerries" wait for an enemy hack of one of our captured points to finish it's virus upload before counter hacking it, they actually stood waiting at the terminal until it turned orange because you do not get any war points if you counter hack before it has finished the virus upload and changed color. On both occasions the match was extremely close to ending and both MCCs were on their last few bars of armor, Our MCC was shot down on both occasions while the enemy only had a single bar of armor left itself, that single missile or w/e is launched in the time it took for the point to be returned to blue and stop attacking our MCC cost us the victory, and probably my win./loss ratio in the Kaimeras Challenge. Things need to change so you get the same for counter hacking whether it has finished or not because there are far too many people playing this game who are so selfishly stupid they think a few personal war points is more important that their whole team getting a victory. This is made worse by the lack of notification in game of the Kaimeras event leaving too many people unaware that there are people putting a lot of effort into winning prizes only to have their win lose ratio screwed up because some idiot thought his 100 extra war points was more important than his team getting a victory. |

Totally support this, but one reason that sometimes I decide to wait is that the counter hack takes sooooo damn long and if the hack kicks in you have to start over completely. If I get there late it's honestly faster to just wait for it to go through. |

I still don't know why ccp hasn't fixed this.
1. It's slower to counter hack.
2. There is no incentive to counter hack.
So why have you not fixed this ccp? |

Sorry, it is not a bug.
It requires a tactical decision that has btoh personal and team consequences to be considered.
Not everyone will consider more than themselves when presented with the decision. I always attempt the counter hack as it blocks 100WP from the Reds. If our MCC is suffering heavy damage than I try to help or get help as well.
Allowing WP for the counter makes it an easy decision and an easier exploit.
Others will only think their WP is all that matters. It is the nature of the grinder that is DUST. |
