Either youll destroy the MCC, or you werent really doing that good. If the enemy takes out your ability to control the area it doesnt matter if they lost all their clones or not, they still win. Far in the future though I would like to see it be that if you run out of clones you have to find a way to field more before the enemy finds a way to field another MCC (or whatever similar mechanic is around at that time).
If you had to burn through all your clones to zerg your way into controlling the objectives and we depleted them we were doing just fine. Clone depletion is there for a reason, no there shouldnt be an overtime, fact is if you dont bleed out and you dont choose to hit respawn the count doesnt drop until after this has occured. Meaning if you were impatient and pressed respawn or a teammate didnt revive you and in either scenario were too careless to look at the clone count then you deserve to lose. Yes it suck for the people playing fighting for objectives, chances are they were the ones carrying the team, but that doesnt mean the other team should get punished for smelling weakness in the ranks and exploiting it either.
Clone depletion is a valid way to win, I am however for uping the clone count to 200. But as is 150 seems to at times be too quick, however i have been in many tight matches against good players on both sides where it was literally a rat race with one sides closer to depleting clones and the other to destroying the MCC.
Also keep in mind that the MCC's are firing at each other and (not sure if true, damaging each other). So if a clone depletion occurs and the team that depleted them are close to losing their MCC and still caps all the objectives could in theory still lose if the gap is wide enough, why should they be punished for eliminating all your clones(basically depleting the enemy of their resources, another path to victory in any type of warfare). |
