shon_tsu Posted February 1, 2012 Share Posted February 1, 2012 Its like some of you don't want competition. On one hand you ***** that people desert, on the other you don't want to give them incentive to stay (or for some of you, punish them further for losing). As for Huttball objective points, interestingly enough one game when we were getting farmed I just jumped down and stayed out our own end, and after a bit, up popped a defender medal. Yup, you get objective points for hanging around your own goal-line giving the opposition a perfect target to leap to right where they want to be. Genius!

sprasz Posted February 1, 2012 Share Posted February 1, 2012 I know the medal system isn't the best and 30 medals will take longer for some. I've won huttball by running and passing the ball and receiving 1-2 medals. But as it is now, it takes a long time to get the 3 wins, because people leave or just give up. Deserter debuff would only fix the the people leaving. People will still give up. I PvP cause I want to fight the other player and really objectives are nice but for the most part people are too dumb to understand not to fight away from the objectives. Agree but 30 is too low, if its "only" medal gaine it should be 40 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

I thought it was for killing people on the end zone. Talk about backwards medals. Things like this and healer medals could be addressed and tweaked if medals became the way of the daily.

Calei Posted February 2, 2012 Share Posted February 2, 2012 I'm not even sure what you are asking. I play to win. Period. There is no other reason I play. It is not for fun. It is not for personal satisfaction. It is not to make my character have better pixels. It is not for a fancy title or to brag on the forums. I play to win. What is possibly hard to understand about that? Winning is not a reason. Winning is a condition based upon a set of rules in a conflict or contest. Another condition is losing and a tie depending on the rules. So again... why do you play to win? Do you want to prove to others and yourself that you're better than someone else? Because thats a good example of a reason. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Sabredance Posted February 2, 2012 Share Posted February 2, 2012 (edited) If losing gave 0 medals no one would stick around after the first turning point and no games would end. Sit in queue to have it pop, when you are getting 3 capped in Civil war, 5 to 0 hutt ball, or bomb planted on second door and you're still flying in. 0 medals thanks for being in queue. Thats why i would also put a painful deserter debuff on people leaving the sinking ship. I know - thats not very realistic. I can´t enforce a sportsmanship attitude on people. Barbies everywhere.

Or defending no nodes, and the ops spam let them win. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
sleightly Posted February 2, 2012 Share Posted February 2, 2012 I gotta /veto this one. No way there should be more incentives to do stuff other than win. People already medal farm and its annoying. LMAO, veto. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
