when a control point is hacked you have about 1 minute or so to stop the virus upload, doing so takes a long time. the problem is it doesn't give you any point at all, from a selfish perspective it is faster and easier to hack it back soon as it is captured. 150 points should be awarded ( same a hacking) for stopping the virus upload. |

Unless you have leveled System Hacking a few times and carry a non-militia hacking module then anything about 50% of Red on the Letter icon means you should wait. If you have several Mercs counter hacking you can beat it.
I have timed the difference and it is significant. However, if your MCC is struggling than any effort is better than none. Overall, I disagree about the reason why letting it run out is best. That is just math. After 50% you can rarely stop it, letting it run out is actually faster. But it might let the Null Cannon get a shot off to your MCC.
That said, I would agree that some WP should be earned for stopping the hack. |

exactly, it should be at least 100 or so, it's should be similar or the same as hacking the thing itself. |

I think that counter hacking should be a little bit fast than it is now, because unless you get there right after it was hacked, you don;t have a chance of getting it. It should also give some WP, because it is an action that defends an objective. |

Logi suits get a passive hack speed bonus.
Any suit can fit a Codebreaker module to hack faster.
The speed is fine as-is.
And the reward isn't there because that would leave the system open to abuse with queue-syncing. |

Nah, it's fine as is. it's actually quite easy to stop the virus upload if there are two two three people hacking at it simultaneously. |
