Without Wp there is no way of knowing who is being helpful and who is being useless. While I agree that the system is not perfect and could use work, I do not think removing it would be good.
but simply because Wp are directly related to things people do in battles.(Uplinks, scanners, rep tools, hives, injectors)
It should be clear to you but i am aware of the intelligence of many of you after reading through posts such as this one, so i am going to clarify it for you.
People with more Wp are more valuable. Not because of the orbital possibility but because Wp directly relate to ones involvement in the game.
Tell me how can someone "Farm Wp" in a way that has a negative effect in the game? By placing nanohives and uplinks on the front lines? By scanning the enemies and equipment for your team? Yes I admit some people have been known to revive people in front of enemies for the wp but that is very rare.
Instead of complaining they should be taken away you should be asking for more to be awarded. Maybe come up with a list of equipment and actions that would reward players for their involvement. Like a long range visual scanner for snipers that highlight enemies in their visual scope. You seem decently intelligent i am sure you could think of more ideas. Think about it. Actually think. Why not improve the What's in it for me mechanic and reward people for doing more tasks that are beneficial to the team.
Like saving a teammate, or revenge kills, there are so many things you could reward making it a way more customizable allowing people to earn Wp from a much larger variety of game play. Instead of restricting Wp or eliminating them we should increase the tasks that reward them and increase the amount needed for Orbital strikes
Even if they got rid of Wp rewarding orbitals i would still like Wp to be awarded so i can keep my squads good by kicking people who do nothing for my team like a guy who gets 50 wp in an entire skirmish for example. Every game has some sort of reward point system. (Bf3 for example) This game just gives out a reward for a group effort because it rewards team playing far more than most other games which as you should know is dusts entire premise.
