Am i the only one who believes we should get some points for stopping an enemy's hack? It takes twice as long, anyone who is paying half attention has time to see your team hacked the point, run from the other side of the map and help out before you can stop the hack... It is kinda a pain, im sure my strategy will change when im in my corps battles or w/e but i will often kill all the enemies let the hack finish and then re-hack just so i can get some points out of it. If you get 100 points for hacking a point and 50 for hacking a supply depot or turret that takes 3 seconds then stopping a hack should get you like 150 at least. |

I think the reason you don't get points is because people could potentially help each other farm the points repeatedly hacking and defending them. Although it's still possible now, they have to wait for it to switch sides.
It's still broken that it gives nothing. Similar to the FW problem in eve, you get no points for defending because it would allow risk free farming in "home" systems, so almost nothing gets defended.

There are a couple things that would be easily farmable with collusion between sides. If hacking vehicles was worth points, for example.
Another possibility is having a logi rep a tank while someone else shoots at it. That one you can actually do. You get WP for damaging vehicles and WP for repping them.
You could also take turns capturing supply depots or CRUs. |

I can understand that to a degree but its still seems silly to not reward something that is harder to do than the easy **** you do reward... Plus theres always going to be someone who finds a way to farm and manipulate the game to some degree but it is usually not worth the time and effort and the people who do that to get ahead suck because thats all they know how to do. |

i agree. wouldn't it just be easier to farm WP by putting two drop uplinks next to each other and just trading off on kills? why should we not reward people who are a credit to the team instead of just trying to stop people from farming the same amount of wp that they would get from just playing the game? |

I say you have to make a kill shot WHILE they're hacking. and not interupt them. |

Its dumb. Anything you do in a competitive shooter can be farmed or exploited, or boosted.
Maybe we should stop giving points for winning since two teams fighting each other might farm for points.
Its gonna happen. It doesn't make it any better to deny those points. If people are going that far to gain SP, then just mKe it convienient for the rest of us and make defending hacks worth it.
Also, I think there should be not just hacking objectives, but planting charges and destroying them too. |

still the point is to not let your enemy get anything but the only way to get good points is to let them retake **** then cap it back yourself..... thats not right you should be all for the domination of the other team but then you have to sit for 10 mins or so not gettin good points tryiin to spawn kill your enemy back at there starting base... ill admit this has gotten better since the new build has more points to cap and what not but never the less id like to see this implemented |
