Has it been doubled yet? If you're averaging over 400WP per minute in any game mode, I'd be extremely impressed. That's 8 kills a minute. Or consistently a kill less than every 7 and a half seconds. Keep that up for an entire ambush and that's 120 kills. Good job

i was in my nyain sqd with my proto MD and orbitals, i was hitting the stupid cap almost every match. 8 kills a minute is easy in ambush.
EDIT* its easy because you consider i was running MD, scanner sqd lead w/ commission and orbitals, but other people not killing can hit it easy too with sudden mass uplink spawns and triage nanohives. As well as Tankers and others, the WP CAP affects players WAYY too often.

You do realise that's an average of 400wp per minute, right?
I'm guessing that if you're still hitting the limit, the cap hasn't been increased yet because that's pretty impossible even in an ambush, especially when there are only 50 clones. If you're averaging 8 kills a minute, the game would be done in less than 7 minutes on your kills alone. And since you're running with a squad, it's gonna be a lot less than that, so more like 3 minutes.

Tonight as I was playing as squad leader, I reached the stupid war point cap pretty much every other match, because I was playing ambush and getting many kills myself then quickly OBing then enemy. And of course the stupid cap means boom 7 kills but not a single warpoint awarded. CCP do you HONESTLY have to say f* you to good players JUST because you can't come up with a way to stop one of the like 2 no life boosters on dust? TL;DR TAKE AWAY THE STUPID F**** WP CAP YA W@NK3RS

And since you're running with a squad, it's gonna be a lot less than that, so more like 3 minutes. you do realise that most of our pubstomps are over in 5 or less minutes right? i was averaging 20 kills per match (16-28) with usually 1 or two deaths, and i was constantly getting +18 scann assists, +10 comissions, +10 resupplys, multiple multi kills with my MD in the same minute as i back off to kill 12 reds with an OB? That situation i described happened almost every match, my worst OB of the night was 3 kills. Had huge board wipe OBs almost every match. TL;DR The wp cap is stupidly low and its annoying as f*** to have to worry about waiting to kill more ppl or u wont get wp.

If you hit a certain number of war points (WP) per minute on average in a match, you start getting reduced WP for actions. The numbers started at 250wp/min with a limit of 300wp/min but this is being (or has already been) increased to 400wp/min and 500wp/min. With this as average over the course of each game and the new numbers, it's pretty impossible to hit the cap without exploiting. Dust2Dust - Funeral arrangements for all of New Eden.

Dust University Do you even know how to get warpoints? You should really not care for such a thing. ontopic: I feel the cap in the begging of every game, when I rack up those +120 WP / installation in my tank. Sucks. Since I'm not squad leader, get no scanning points in my tank I only cap in a match, while killing in quick succession.

It shows just how out of touch they are with the playerbase. The CPM's even warned them about it....
DUST Fiend OSG Planetary Operations Covert Intervention 7388	Posted - 2013.11.02 16:32:00 - [19] - Quote I think the system is brilliant, once the numbers are hammered out. And orbitals should NOT be tied to WP, period. It's far too easy to earn orbitals in your first 1-2 minutes of a match. Orbitals definitely need more thought put into them, WP should be the last thing they're triggered by. Red is dead
Thurak1 Psygod9 D.E.F.I.A.N.C.E 357	Posted - 2013.11.02 16:46:00 - [20] - Quote I agree. I was having a great game yesturday and i hit this cap very fast. I was in a squad of all corp members and we were put up against a bunch of random people. We were dominating the BF and i got capped very quickly. I had a pretty simple setup I had a assault suit with scrambler and a rep gun. Between gunfights i pulled out the rep gun to top off peoples armor and after 2 gunfights i capped out and did not get any more wp's the rest of the match. Its pathetic. Look CCP if you find out about a glitch fix the dam glitch dont just make this crap that punishes every player that has any amout of skill. But then again CCP has made some of the biggest programming blunders the gaming community knows about ( IE warp gate bookmarks and how to instantly overload your own servers )

Thats because like i have said before in other threads and in a couple threads i have made just to open their eyes CCP obviously does not actually give a darn about anyone in its player base. That or literally nobody at CCP speaks or reads english therefore can not read these forums at all. Personally my money is on the fact they dont care.

Joel II X AHPA 88	Posted - 2013.11.02 17:02:00 - [23] - Quote I rather have the points for kills in an orbital strike removed. If you're good at paving them, you can get about 7 kills and have enough to be pretty close to a second orbital. Why would anyone reward somebody who used a reward?
