Hello S3dition,

The bonus in the scoreboard are already calculated with the times 2 bonus.
So the original bonus may have been 0.5 * 2 = 1 * 1.5 rounded up to 2.[color=#500050]

The points are being doubled before they are shown in the bonus calculations, and apparently you can get a fraction of a point somehow.

Working fine for me. Over 2k EXP a round with out any kind of premium boost.

[RiceyFighter]

Works fine for me as well.

[RockWolf]

Didn't for me yesterday.

[Lucian Nostra]

I think it's more the fact that you lost with only a kill assist. Nothing happened..

[Evilbunny]

You only get 100xp for none double xp loss. So it is unfortunatly working.

[FiveDigits]

You are getting 200 base XP for a loss. That is twice the 100 XP you regularly get. Works as intended. It just isn't shown as doubled in the summary.

[Rhialto]

LOL! Playing for 3 weeks and I never saw that screen!

Looks like I was looking at Team Stats and that's it, never noticed the button at the top.

Thanks!

isn't a loss worth 100 XP? I think the double is only working on the base xp you get, not doubling your premium time, but I could be wrong. wouldn't be the first time (just ask my old lady...)

[S3dition]

Ah. Honestly, I pretty much never get that screen. I ran straight at the enemy and yelled "kill me!" so I could test it out. However:

To further celebrate the Trial By Fire Sale, we’re giving double XP rewards all of this Easter Weekend! This means any XP you earned is doubled; 2x, 200%, increased!

But the kill assist is not doubled (it's 1 point, not 2) and is rounded up by my 50% premium to 2 (should result in a total of 3). So is it actually only double xp for a win or loss, but not ALL xp, as stated?

It doubles everything you earn normally during the match, and the premium bonus is applied after. It's therefore +50% of the doubled amount, but it doesn't get doubled again on top of that. That would be more than 200% total bonus.

I understand it doesn't double again, but look at the kill assist.

1 * 2 = 2

2 * 1.5 (rounded up) = 3.

In my screenshot, it's only 2.

It would have been much easier if they just added everything up, then applied a 250% bonus (or 200% for non-premium).

[Redshift2k5]

The loss has been doubled *(normally only 100xp)

The 1 xp for a kill assist did not get doubled, but maybe you should earn more than 1 xp next time and see. It may just be some sort of rounding issue.

edit:perhaps you earned .5 of an XP and the 1 is, in fact, the correct doubled value.

What do you mean 1* 2 = 2 and then 2 * 1.5 = 3?

That would be doubling it again, which we just said it doesn't.

Nevermind, as I see you updated the original post.

That's not doubling it again.

Weekend bonus = 2.0

Premium bonus = 1.5

How is that doubling it twice?

1 * weekend bonus * premium bonus = 3.

However, support is saying that you only get .5 points, not 1 point. I can't really verify that, since it will never show a fraction of a point on the mission result screen. Doesn't really matter though.

Because the displayed 1 already includes the weekend bonus, so applying it again would be a second time.

You even said you were clear on that now in your original post.
