I understand where he is coming from. Since the change. You do not get anymore C-bills for capping. I think they should take out the cap and call it Deathmatch. But I have seen and done it my self. Be in a light mech and be the last one on my team and they have 3 to 4 heavy. Lead them out and cap. It is a win but not any more then losing.

It's not done for cbills, it's done to confuse the easily confused. Sending out a faster mover or two to quickly cap their base forces them to deal with it or lose the match fast. Often in their panic they spread out in a trail due to different speeds on their mechs which makes it easier to mop up the main force. That or all their fast movers break off leaving their heavier units out numbered and out gunned for easier kills.

Think of the cap point as a way to break up a mob and cause pain to a team with poor communication. It's really effective.

People that can't do a simple thing and defend their own base and just want to herp d derp across the map and lose is just...sad. No tactical skills or intelligence to defend their own base just run off all dumb like forgetting their second objective of the game play...just pathetic. Defend you losers!!

Right, you get nothing for capping! Straight cap at least. Nothing worth mentionaing anyways.

When i win i get something like this:



ANd when i lose i get stuff like this:



AGain, Removing R&R and turning this game into a generic FPS as it is now as made this game EASY for r-tards. Simple as that. Can you feel your money going down the drain lol. I resign to that many patches ago.

ANyways, Capping base is for losers, PERIOD!

BUT THERE NO NEED TO ACTUALLY CAP THE BASE! I see that as a valid tactic yes, BUT TO CAP, even worse like that stupid 'SQWARK' *** clan that suck so hard they all got cheeks down to there big toes is when they team rush the cap.

It's just shows how bad people are in my opinion, Stick your's up where the sun dont shine!

Plus i been pugging alot, They dont listen!

Simple solution: next time you drop into a game, just type (nicely) into the all chat channel (that would be the "T" key),

"Hey guys, lets play deathmatch, no capping allowed, ok?"

You'd be surprised how amenable folks are to playing with conditions.

Or, you might find that you'll have to defend anyway. Either way, you should have fun doing it.

And this is why successful teams are successful: bring 8 Atlas DDCs and you have absolutely no map awareness and almost no map control. A coordinated, balanced team will lure the big lumbering mechs away from their base, then send in a Commando to cap for the win.

Ermahgerd! The enemy outmaneuvered my team! It's the game's fault!

Just noticed salvage bonus IS THE ONLY THING YOU LOSE IF YOU LOSE, and its rubbish lol. Seriously, This games borked!

[Deamhan]

People will never learn. In conquest I just like to maintain a lead and in assault I like to get their cap down but not actually cap it unless the **** hits the fan.

[Hesketh Vernon Hesketh Prichard]

8 atlas's RUIN ANYTHING!¬ are you serious? i roll sometimes with 4 of us as atlas's, WE DONT LOSE!

I eeat lights for breakfast

The guys I drop with stomp 8 Atlas cheese teams on a regular basis. If you use 8 Atlas cheese teams, there's a very good likelihood that we have stomped you.

We use balanced, flexible teams because that's the smart way to play.

I think Hesketh is mad at teams or groups of people whos sole intention is to win by cap during assault mode for instance, cap rushing. That said you still lost for being unable to defend, it happens, there are so many in game scenarios.. win by capture or for the tactical advantage.

Most the time when we lose big time, I get mad at my team not the enemy, 'cos I'm a good scout... like prophet status.

YOu need read, I been pugging alot recently, And we drop 4 atlas's, as we DONT SYNC DROP like the 'sqwarkers' either. I use lights/heavy/assult and do well in all. 8v8's still have people playing? haha.

Cappers may as well lock them selves in a clossit cause that about as much you'll get out of doing it.

ANyweays, Nuff said, Your a sad 'womens bits' if you camp in my book. Simple

And im mad at nothing, Im blunt and say what i think, Not mad. Ill still stomp anyone in game but atm im cbill mining, so ill be heading straight for you if you see me....

I know exactly why he is mad: he expects everyone to play with the same mentality that he does.

I wouldn't pin the blame on OP, I would say that he is voicing a common gripe about the current limitations of the game (perhaps less eloquently than he might, but nevertheless:)

That's why PGI needs to add more game options, so that folks who want just Death Match / FFA / KoH or other game types (common in other games) can play them against other like minded people. It would only increase their player base, I would think. Not everyone likes capturing to be an option in the game.

Oboy this thread. AGAIN.

THERE IS NO DEATHMATCH

SO BLOODY ASK THE DEVS FOR THAT

STOP BEING STUPID ABOUT THE MODES WE DO HAVE

Yes there is. Because if you aren't willing to cap the base the threat of a cap, and thus breaking them up so you can isolate them and gun them down is worthless.
