Points

[xShamrock]

havent seen this anywhere yet so tohught i should ask. how are the awarded points, example whats the point value for a kill or a med heal etc?

[Deesies]

everything is one point.

capping things I believe is still 2 points and kill assists are 0.5 points.

Following orders and stuff I believe is 1 career point. Career points don't add to your in game score but do add to your global score... I think.

[Talus]

Yes, I believe this is true...you see to get less points for doing things but you get points for many more things and more often.

You also earn points now for Pins, Badges, and Ribbons. The Expert Badges are worth 2000 points.

Yes, that is also a good way to get points.

You can get some pins multiple times in a round as well and that can give your overall score a little boost (e.g. combat efficiency - 5 kills in a row).

I hope stat padders do not find a way to exploit this :(

Killing 5 people in a row over and over is difficult to do consistently don't you think? It's much easier and faster to "farm" points in a squad.

[Talus]

Yes, I'm hoping that's what this point system will encourage...squadding up and teamwork.

I got 4 squad field upgrades within an hour of playing last night in a full squad of 6.

Everything is a point except assits, like I think you get .5 for a kill damage assit and stuff like that.

Then you get points for getting awards as well.

Where theres a will theres a way!!! You know people will always try to exploit this....

I told myself in this game I am going to focus more on winning rounds more than focusing on stats and rank and points....the other night i was apart of a major slaughter of the other team. I would like to think it because I only died once in the trasport hover craft and did drop offs and pick ups at the silos the whole round.....It was alot more satisfying than getting points....I think my total score was 6 or 7 or somethin like that.

[Talus]

Yes, they still haven't found a good way to provide points for those who use the transport vehicles effectively.

Sure, you get points if your passengers heal, resupply, repair, or score a kill...but flights tend to be short. Pick up. Drop off. Return for more soldiers.

[Deesies]

I thought you got am award for having a certain amount of people jump out of the transport? =o

[Sethonan]

Wanna know a trick? HAve your SL order you to MOVE to an area, drop people off... insta 6 team work points. Titan drops are much more rewarding, and they get you a medal too.

[Splinter]

Even though you get less points than like bf2, I found my over all score at the end of the round to be more than in Bf2.

[ReaperOfsouls]

Ya especailly in titan mode, you get all those defend and attack bonus.

I think if your in your squad leader radius you get 1 point for a kill assist and things like that, to encourage team play! (good idea)

[Orphious2006]

Yea I am hard pressed in the demo to find a good squad!

[Talus]

It'll take a while for everybody to explore the game a bit on their own before they really start to use the squad tools more.

[Orphious2006]

Probably will take awhile in the retail until they realize teamwork = more points in this game.
