Shiftyas Posted January 3, 2012 Share Posted January 3, 2012 I only really play Hutball, so it will be about that (by the way thanks for making me queue up and leave BGs till I get Hutball, rather than be able to queue what I want to play) So I've noticed that I can 6 cap a game in 5 minutes and get less than 40 commendations, while people on the team that just got smashed, get twice that. This is because rather than focusing on the objective of the game, they just ran around killing people and getting medals. You're rewarding people that play like noobs and punishing people that play properly. Solution - Bonus 60 commendations for winning by 6, 50 for winning by 5 and so on... Also 2 commendations for every minute left on the clock. Oh and you should add an assist medal. This would encourage people to play properly rather than running around killing people and ignoring the objective. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

I agree they need more reward for the people that actually go for the objectives of a WZ, but 60 coms for winning by 6? You know how many times I've joined a huttball match with afkers and then get steamrolled in 4 minutes.. With the way matchmaking is in this game, that would just let pre-mades get unbelievably powerful so much faster, widening the gap even further..

Shiftyas Posted January 3, 2012 Author Share Posted January 3, 2012 Doesn't have to be exactly that, could be 30 for 6 25 for 5 and so on. These are just ideas not saying it's what it has to be. All I'm saying really is they need to reward people for playing properly rather than reward people for playing like idiots. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Acindo Posted January 3, 2012 Share Posted January 3, 2012 We definitely need more rewards and different ways to earn them in the WZs. I feel kind of jipped when I get a lot of goals and assists only to end up with nothing to really show for it. Same as when I set off a lot of bombs or cap turrets. Thank god I have my shield, thats a guaranteed 3 or 4 medals if theres a competent healer. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
WickedDemiurge Posted January 3, 2012 Share Posted January 3, 2012 Your general idea of "Objectives should give rewards" is good, but your solution is not, because it tends to reward roflstomps, particularly in uneven numbered BGs. The better solution would be one medal per cap. If you do get all 6 captures by yourself, you deserve it. And broadly speaking, more medals for objective in general (assist if you pass to person who capped, medal for killing ball handler, etc) Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Fumouffu Posted January 3, 2012 Share Posted January 3, 2012 Pleaaaase please reward objectives with medals. It makes me feel dumb to cap a ball or objective and win but end up with four medals instead of six. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
faibre Posted January 3, 2012 Share Posted January 3, 2012 Try playing a healer and getting 300k healing and only getting 40 commendations. Whereas with dps I can spam dots and get 40 without even trying. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Sevvy Posted January 3, 2012 Share Posted January 3, 2012 Everything about PvP is stupid. Lol this game. I really think it's awesome that I've opened 30+ Champion bags and gotten 5 items, and my friend has opened 9 bags and gotten the same amount of items. It makes me want to play more. Who greenlighted some **** like that? Seriously? I guess people that don't know **** about MMOs... Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

sw_dragon Posted January 3, 2012 Share Posted January 3, 2012 (edited) its ridiculous. Ive played games where i simply dps and heal everything in sight and walk away with an easy 7 medals. Then i play to score and end up with 4 medals, less commendations and less valor. If thats the case then just remove objectives altogether and make it team deathmatch.

Bullsith Posted January 3, 2012 Share Posted January 3, 2012 This is the ANTI-WOW-PVP system. Buff ranged classes till they can't be buffed any more, and reward the crappy losers. New an innovative, ain't it? Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
