Only if you kill enough to gain so much SP that you hit that cap. The problem is, we don't know the cap. Could be 1,000,000 SP. Could be 90,000 SP.
The inherent issue is that the source of the cheating is still there, and players could choose to attain the maximum SP from a match by continuing to use the exploit. They might not make as much as they did, but they'll still make as much as they can. Again and again and again. |

So if Im a slayer and I only kill, then I will be affected It does depend on the size of the cap, if it big enough to allow a good performace without hitting the cap but small enough that it cannot be abused too much. A better way would be to only award points for repairs. If the item being repaired is active in the match. ie if it hasn't earn't any WP itself why reward people for repairing it. The repers would be more useful to the team if they repair those that are active in the battle.
Unless, of course, they are repping the MCC as a valid and legitimate tactic to bring about a win in a very tight game... |

In EVERY game i've ever played this happens.............. EVRY SINGLE ONE.
The games where it happens least or not at all are the ones people actually get more fun etc. out of actually playing the game.
yes i know its a beta...........
but it's so so boring that is why people are looking for ways to get more kills ( i.e. tanks )
to get more SP to try stuff out ( hence farming )
for gods sake make people enjoy and want to play this or it's good night.
There is truth here.
I'm actually a bit interested, though. This is a beta. Which is about to be reset. So there are people in a beta purposefully gaming the system to get extra points...that they know they are about to lose. I'd love to know the motivation. Is cheating and getting big numbers just novel? Is it actually more fun than playing? So people need the SP to be competitive?
I hope the next build can bring back the fun with reduced playability issues, better balance from the start, and some new features (corps!). |
