I know right, it's only been over a year now 
Funny thing is that this still wouldn't net us anywhere near enough WP to help us turn a profit, but it would certainly be a step in the right direction. Why someone can just enter a game, throw down some uplinks, afk and earn exponentially more WP than us is just baffling at best. |

It's this kind of worthless dribble that proves how much console FPS players don't understand tactical gaming. |

I know right? Lmao.
The very first thing that came to mind was sitting in the red line with 2 guys in your LAV, driving in circles |

Provided of course the dropship already up there doesn't blow you up first. Seriously, MCRU points are too easily exploitable, there has to be another way.
You're assuming that the whole team is going to be spawning on your ship that's tucked far away from where they want to be spawning....
Also, that's why we should probably only get 10 points per spawn in the ship. MCRU points are just the beginning, but anything would be a godsend at this point >_< |

It doesn't, but how does it hurt the game to let a 1 million ISK investment earn 400-700 WP in a match? |

Ok, so we can agree that adding a small amount of WP to MCRU spawns (across all platforms) does nothing to harm the game?
So what we need now is to figure out how to do deployment and extraction bonuses, and how to balance them against effort vs reward. I personally feel they need to only offer a trickle of WPs, 5 and 10 points for various tasks, so that way if you're active and helping your team all match you can actually earn a living, but if you just **** around in the red zone trying to get people to spawn on your ship, you won't be earning much of anything |

And you have to be a phenomenal pilots with phenomenal gunners to even come halfway close to what a run of the mill assault guy pounding it out on the ground earns in any given match |

Oh what a wonderful attitude, and the game mechanics aren't as bad as your making them out to be and you know it.
Just ignore him, he's clearly trolling, and this has actually been a very helpful and informative thread. Same goes to the rest of you, us pilots are some of the most level headed players in this community, lets just ignore useless stuff like this and continue working towards keeping this thread relevant and useful.
EDIT: Wrong thread, but I guess the point still stands. |
