No, No, No. Bad idea.
I don't have 1 sp put into sniping, but I have redlined teams and been redlined so I know that there are times where the only benefit to leaving the redzone is to watch your deaths pile up. Sure it speeds up the match so you can hopefully get into another without a team of proto, but I see no reason me, or anyone else, should be forced into a killzone just because you are pissed at a sniper actually doing his job. If you don't like it, take out your free sniper fit like I do and kill him yourself.
Everyone here may have leet skillz and swear they can't be pushed all the way back, but I guarantee you if it hasn't happened it will. And you would likely throw a fit if you were redlined at the end of a match and lost your reward up till that point (proto is expensive)........
On second thought, I would love to see someone I've been redline wasting disappear from the game entirely, losing all they earned trying to break out. Puts griefing on a whole new level, and gives prototrolls another way to ruin the noob experience.
Great suggestion OP. |

It says you get isk and sp over time for being in the battle, the redzone is not in the battle
Who cares if players can get Warpoints in the redzone those only account for 10-20% of the rewards earned in the battle. There is a reason it wasn't an issue because the beta ended.
If you are saying that you can "earn" WP and ISK from kills/assist/triage/etc in redzone but just not get the passive bonus for being on the battlefield, then I like that idea but only reduce it to something like .25-.5 of the passive as it stands now. It's moderately penalizing to those who camp the line (been sniping with an alt, it was fun and hard to not end up in the zone tho), still allows for continuing the fight with some benfit even if you are relatively alone, and the reduction in passive boost gives an incentive to push out for most mercs. This would encourage people to push when an opportunity presents itself, but doesn't discourage at least putting up a fight like no bonus would. So a team of noobs against a squad of protostompers with supporting players would result in an effort to kill the enemy, instead of cutting your losses.
Also, ya gotta remember that for some people, it is more important to keep a spotless k/d or save the cost of another suit cuz they're too broke/greedy/cheap/etc than to spawn back in while lined. There is no way they are jumping in regardless of the penatlites, because to them it isn't worth it for good or bad. |
