Currently the only points earned from a cru and supply depot come from hacking or destroying them, maybe it would give the blues more incentive to hack and hold these installations if the earned points after gaining control of them.
I propose that cru give +10 per spawn to the player that hacked the cru and +1 per resupply to the player that hacked the supply depot . Not only does this entice players to hack and maintain control but also give suits with low or no bandwidth opportunity to earn more warpoints while defending said installations. this may help with Cru camping too.
I don't know if coding can allow this.?
I would also be curious to know average cru spawns per match for each game type and the number of clusters (is that what you call each gain of resupply?) on average from supply depots per match for each game type.
thanks

 Nice idea, Ku. And I already think CCP agrees with your point of view.
They introduced "extra points for incentive to HOLD an asset" a little while ago. It was just for Null Cannons (not for other installations),GǪ but it is a COOL idea, and it makes a ton of extra WP for me, because I am the defend-minded player who learned the good habit of sticking around for a while to baby-sit the asset after you've hacked itGǪ
But,GǪ I get the feeling that over time, other players' compulsion to "go shoot stuff" gradually made them COMPLETELY FORGET about the hack-n-hold bonus. Most player I see (thank goodness, not ALL players) run off and abandon each thing they hack--even Null Cannons.
I have a feeling your idea would be COMPLETELY forgotten too, over time. Darn good idea, butGǪ there are mental bugs in your fellow players' heads that seem sooo difficult to erase. They just keep falling back into the same tragic habits.
Universe of good wishes for the 49, especially CCP Eterne...

I think this is a bad idea.
Great way of thinking trying to encourage battle tactics.
But absolutely not.
People racing to get these OVER objectives is a problem. People letting reds hack them so they can hack it back and take the points from the other guy is a problem. People TKing in FW so they can hack for WP (ultimately LP) is a problem.
If you want to encourage defense of installations have people get defense WP for killing nearby (like we get for objectives.)
But even that would encourage DepotCamping/Grenade spamming. |

Floating around in a dropship grants 50 wp per spawn and you are likely doing less , plus you earn points for transport assist, rewarding WP for cru spawns is no different.
I did however kind of overlook the supply depot spam although I did try and keep the WP earn for that action minimal at 1 wp per cluster, and im sure some kind of wp/s timer like the rep tool could be implemented. how long would it take to throw a 100 grenades?

I think rather than adding yet more WP spam there should be low-ISK reward "strategic action" bounties.
Hack a CRU? you get 10k ISK.
Hack a turret? 2500
Hack a supply depot? 5k
if yhe installation is hacked more than twice inside a minute (harder to pull off if you're actually fighting) the installation overloads, explodes and kills everyone in 200m and the last two hackers get -50 WP for each person on their team killed in the blast.
They don't explode when you shoot them because safety features disable the reactor just before hitting 10% armor.

it would be hard to call the cru wp spam as you only are rewarded if clones actually spawn on it but I am thinking more that the reward for hacking the supply depot should remain simply being able to resupply.
