Blaster and turret installations very easy to kill low shield and armor and yet you get 100wp for the kill.
Supply depots and CRU's have crazy shield and armor and only pay 50wp per kill.
Correct me if I am wrong but does it not make more sense to pay more wp for the harder kill?

I personally you should get damage points and destruction points for installations and that the points should be normalized for all types of installations. Something like two 25 damage points and 50 points for destructions, bringing you to 100 points overall. This would also make it so that when someone steals your installation kill at the last second, you still get those 50 points for damaging it and the kill stealer only gets 50 points.
Thats a great idea blaz and I too would love to see that happen sometime soon.

Hacking them FOR your team to utilize and protect is the type of game-play being forwarded.. PLAN B is destroying them so that the enemy can't use them, not for your own personal warpoint accumulation.
Understand?
The funny thing about that is I actually see more turret installations left alive compared to supply depots and CRU's
Still makes no sense.
If they are so important to the team and players they should pay more for the destruction.

If they are so important to the team and players they should pay more for the destruction. That's because there ARE more Turrets than CRUs and SupDeps... logically there should be more hanging around. Besides that point, CRUs and SupDeps don't shoot back so more often than not you can find newberries tearing them up because they are "safe"
So if there are more turret installations then supply and cru's wouldn't it make more sense to pay more for the supply and cru kills.
Turret installs are easy as heck to kill.
Honestly i would rather go up against a turret installation shooting at me rather than 5 enemy spawning at a cru or a 6 for that matter swapping suits at a supply depot.
Still makes no sense but thanks.

So you would rather be spawn camped and killed? Or try swapping your suit only to be blown up by a scouts RE?
Its not hard to see, cru's and supply depots are paying way less wp then they should.
Sure they help the team controlling it but they also hurt the enemy team not controlling it. How can you not see that?
Ohh I know Ill run in and hack the cru when 5 enemies are spawning, yeah great idea.
If that cru or supply depot aint in your teams control they then become a target for destruction and being so hard to kill should pay twice the amount of WP.

Still makes no sense but thanks. You didn't invalidate any of my points.. starting to think you are not even trying to UNDERSTAND. Rather, you seem to be set on the 'I WANT MORE WP' agenda.. for destroying EXTREMELY useful installations. Destroying them when they become problematic for your team is enough of a reward. NO, it doesn't make sense to pay MORE for CRUs simply on the notion of there being more turrets on the field... Where do you get these ideas from? Please... can you at least make an ATTEMPT to show some forethought?
Already told you bro, when 5 enemies spawn a cru or there are 6 enemies at a supply depot spamming nades how in the heck are you suppose to capture that? Makes no sense. The next best thing is to destroy it and being very hard to destroy they should be worth more wp.
I dont care about war points honestly, its more so the effort.
Players trying to kill such a tough installation then finally getting the kill with out it being stolen from them and they get a tiny 50wp the same as killing 1 clone on the battlefield. lol is all i can say.
So how are installations held by the enemy extremely useful to the other team? Explain that for me...

Whereas turrets in the hands of the enemy are an immediate threat, and you are rewarded for eliminating that risk to your team.
You could of course make an argument that CRUs are just as much of a threat as turrets in a competitive sense, but they were always intended to be things you fought over, rather than just remove.
Totally agreed with you darth.
Just wanted to ask a few things.
Okay so when we get redlined for instance, i sneak back onto the battlefield and hack a cru closer to the objective.
Well the enemy sees right away enemy hacking clone reanimation unit and before a team mate could even spawn in to try and defend that cru with me there is already 6 enemies back camping that cru.
The same goes for supply depots, lets say you hack a supply depot it then almost seems a enemy was just waiting for you to hack that, then destroyed not even a minute later.
But I do see the sense behind the reason for cheap wp on the destruction's, thanks for explaining it clearly.
I just think if an installation pays 100wp and cru's n supply's only 50 maybe they should knock that turret wp down to 25wp to be fair.
How many noobs you think killed a cru with all that armor and shield took them 5 minutes getting all excited for big wp only to realize they could have killed 1 enemy to earn the same wp.
I know the point you guys are trying to make they want you to kill turret installations and dont want you to kill crus and supply depots, but it does not really makes sense during game play.

ROMULUS H3X wrote:Since you asked, let me explain what you keep missing.
You see that CRU with the entire team spewing out? Ya that means there are pretty much NO uplinks on the field. Which shows you are fighting AMATEURS. That means once you redline them by destroying that last spawn point, your team will basically have a secure victory.
Note that is enough of a reward on its own, I have already stated this. Yet you pick and choose what you want to comprehend apparently.
I never said not to destroy it, nor did I say it is more advantageous for your team to not have the CRU or supdep... I am saying that destruction of useful installations should be PLAN B.
Can you get that through your thick skull yet?
Getting a little mad? Sorry I did not read your post nor do I intend to.
I dont want to argue guys n gals.
My bottom line is the turret to cru / supply wp does not seem right.
Wanna make it fair knock that installation wp down to 25.Then it all makes sense.

Most of you are oblivious to the point I am trying to make.
Goes in 1 ear and out the other.
But thats okay.
If they are meant to be so darn important on the field why not give them 100,000 armor and let them pay 200wp that way it takes half the battle to even destroy them. Oh i will kill two per battle and get 400wp, yep thats a good battle. lol.
It does not make sense at all the way it is setup now. Sorry if you dont agree, you simply dont play enough to see my side of the view.
How many times have you been spawned camped at a cru compared to an actual player killing you at a turret installation?
Play the game more pls.
So you guys are promoting spawning at a cru camped by 4 enemies waiting for you to spawn in and slaughter you before you can even turn around?
If you get redlined I usually sneak in and drop links, for those that dont have links they hack a cru and the enemy sees that right away. Before any1 even spawns at the cru there are enemies camping it. It actually sounds like a flaw in the game. Want the cru back you gotta go 1 vs 5 to even have the chance of hacking it.
I honestly think destroying that cru would give the team a better outcome, this way 10 players wouldn't die from cru camps and you would still have those 10 clones.
Basically with the wp they pay it works no one wants to kill them, but that does not really work for the team that does not have it in their control especially if they are getting redlined it makes their chances worse of actually getting back into the fight. I would say its all a little too 1 sided.
Why do you think ambush is such an effective game mode? I will let you answer that yourself.

-cut out text-

-cut out text- If everybody is oblivious to your point, then maybe you should come out and say it instead of crying "play more". Put some objective evidence behind your point instead of giving situational gameplay experiences. Ignoring the counterpoints isn't helping your cause. Clones don't really matter when you are in your redline, you are bound to lose one way or another. Destroying the CRU only gimps your team if you get out of redline because now your team's closest spawn is limited to uplinks, and those are finite and easy to destroy. You can't trust your teammates to deploy them either. I really think you have a shot of starting a real discussion, but you are poisoning it with the extreme claims and a bad attitude.
Read again i did not say everybody i said most are oblivious.
I thank the people that already see my point.
I dont think its possible for me to say my point any clearer.

If supply depots and cru's are truly meant to help mercs, then make it that way, dont make it 1 sided.
Make them have a crazy amount of armor and shield or make them non killable all together.
Turret installations are hardly worth 50wp being so easy to destroy. Somehow they give you 100wp.
I would rather a smart deploy in a pub rather than a nasty CRU with 12 remotes all the way around it just waiting to be detonated.
I think supply depots should never be able to be destructed.
As for cru get rid of them and add in smart deploy forcing your team to fight together as an actual team, rather than sitting in the redline.
Ground and mcc spawns are fine.
But CRU's have major flaws and its about time something gets done.

Ignoring peoples legitimate counterpoints is strong in this one... I honestly think he's one of those people who will refuse and deny any claim against them being wrong.. simply taking any argument as a personal attack... whatever, just going to block him now, don't want to know his opinions anymore.
Listen bro i am wrong everyday and i am not afraid to say it.
If you cant see on the battlefield that cru's are a huge issue then thats probably because you are the one camping it with RE's or melees.
I dont want to argue just trying to state that there is major flaws dealing with cru's.
If i am wrong thats cool and I accept it. This is a discussion after all.

Juno Tristan wrote:First off if it's blue and being camped how are you going to destroy it?
You've mentioned the reason to destroy it if it offers no advantage but if there was more WP people would destroy it regardless
That uplink the enemy are all poring out of is super important to destroy but you're still only getting 5 wp
They are important but making them destructable is a good option to have
You cant destroy a friendly installation in pubs obviously.
I am saying if that cru is held by the enemy it would be more of a benefit to destroy that cru rather than run in and hack it so your team can get cru camped.
Think you had me a little confused thats all no worries.
So why not make it a little more even and make them pay 75wp which is 25wp lower than turret installations which by the way are 3 times easier to destroy.
Or knock that crazy 100wp per turret installation kill down to 25 wp and leave cru's and supply's at 50wp.
