If it does exists sounds like the corp doing it is being very tight lipped about it, the only thing i know you can "boost" for sure still is nanohives and my guess they prolly somehow use the rally command to get more points from it but i have never seen squad commission from rally(not sure how you can get commission from simply moving to a spot on the map).

Anyway back to my point if a flood of nanohives are on the field and you start shooting you do indeed get team resupply points, but like rep tool and injectors there is a time delay on it so you cant get it indefintely without some "downtime"

There might be other exploits im overlooking but this is the only thing i can think of that would allow such behavior, i dont think you can get WP/commission on repping vehicles. maybe you can still get rep points from injuring yourself with nades or fall damage and getting repped but not sure.

Right but its also only for that 1 person getting points for assisting someone in reloading. So if 4 people dropped nano and then used ammo and ran through the hives all players would get +12 for each hive and squad leader would get an additinal +5 for each teammate that got +12. I assume this is what happened as it would take a while using this method to get enough WP for 1.5 OBS and they were gone for over half of the game.

Excuse the decent snipers from this idea please. You can sit behind the redline to your heart's content, after you have hit the cap and actually done something useful for your squad/team.

Excuse the decent snipers from this idea please. Snipers/redline tankers and more are the reasons why you should not gain a single point while hiding behind the redline.

I do alright for myself in the red zone. Dont have to worry about those pesky OBS hitting you . And yes if you are running around and you suddenly see you shields and armor drop, thats me . If you are hacking a terminal feeling all safe and you get your head blown off, thats me too. And the best is if you call in a tank and get your head blown off while you are waiting for the drunk Bolas driver to drop down your tank only to be hacked by my squad mates to be used against you, thats me too. If thats being useless, I love being useless.

I mean IDGAF if i go super neg trying to get outta the redline but not everyone is like me and tries to win at the sake of destroying stats. Now if i get bonus WP for not being a lil b itch then its all good.

Skihids Tritan-Industries Legacy Rising 968	Posted - 2013.01.11 16:24:00 - [37] - Quote It appears as though this form of boosting is only good for stats padding, and that is of dubious value if you can't win matches. If the corp names ever get out it would make the boosted stats meaningless as everyone would just discount them as frauds. If you see someone walk out of a trophy shop having bought themselves a shiny award you just don't think of them the same any more. On the other hand it does hurt game play to be a squad short, so it should be discouraged. I can't see how this could remain a secret for long and public derision might be enough to discourage most of it.

Let's give them 25% normal WP, so completely redlined teams can get a pittance.

They woulda had alot of deaths....and this would ruin your KDR and this corp probably would care at least somewhat about their KDR.

So do i, i just meant that if you are in our redline you will die if you stay there too long, also wouldnt surprise me if you were automatically decloaked when you cross the redline, Its been a while since i killzoned it up but i think even bots at the base saw through cloak and disguise even at max level.

What about repping CRU's or resupply or turrets in the redline maybe by damaging them with LAVs Not sure if theat does that much damage tho... Or maybe thats what they were doing, maybe the nanohive to i dought it that they would rack up that much Wp for even 1 orby..?? I say Nerf the repair tool its OP. LOL
