This one really, really bother me... the scoring system... i just had a match, scoring
749 points of damage, we lost due to base being rushed and i did die.... but for top
scoring damage in my team, by almost factor of 2...i recived 190xp.
Grind was tedious before PSr change, but now...this is ridiculous, it does pose
a question....whats the point ?

The point is to make you buy premium time and roll with a team.

Too bad it's just going to drive off most new players instead.

[Screech]

Play more? If you didn't like playing this game then go find another game?

[MrJeffers]

Damage doesn't score any XP, only C-Bills. The damage has to do something, component destruction, kill, assist, for it to score any XP.

I think PGI is pretty cool guy, eh disguised a poorly implemented xp bar as pilot skill and doesn't afraid of anything.

Yep you're likely right.

Equip UAV, it is basically a conversion of cbills into xp. I can easily double my xp per match with 1 good UAV launch.

How many c-bills are you getting per match if a uav is doubling it?

I hate how people tell this guy to get f**ked basically, play another game

He has a valid point. Grinding new mechs sucks expecially for new players and it has gotten far worse over the years, especially so for some with the PSR system.


Now for all you 1337s forumwarriors who generally tell people who raise concerns like this to "go play another game" you are doing a great job of helping PGI drive off new players. That attitude is sh*t. We need new players to keep this game rolling and that stupid attitude held by a shamefully large number of current players is not helping. Give your heads a shake

Post less? If you don't like his opinion then go find another forum?

No kills, assists, component destruction?

Yeah, no XP then. Damage isn't an XP booster.

Has absolutely nothing to do with the PSR change.

Yep.

Yep.

Look at the post match screen and see the things that constitute XP. Play with that in mind.

Read it again - UAV's are XP boosters at the expense of C-Bills. His example is the 40,000 C-Bills for the UAV doubles his XP. Sort of like a one match Premium time boost for 40,000 C-Bills if it's placed right.

[mailin]

Make sure you're locking your targets. If you're not doing this, it WILL reap huge rewards in c-bills and XP.
