in conquest mode, took a resourse point from full enemy to full friendly, by myself in 37 seconds without the module. put module on, did same thing, took 37 seconds.

so why do we have this module?

Uh oh.. Nice find. It makes me wonder if it even works in assault mode. I got a comment the other day that there must be someone with cap module on enemy cap because it was dropping so quickly... To his surprise, it was just me in a light with no cap module. Perhaps it's only a perception that capping has speed up. This requires further testing.

Glad I have not bought into it yet, seems like its main use should be conquest. What about in assault?

Good chance it is only coded for Assault (if that also)

Please submit a support ticket, if you have not already done so.

Hmmm I know it definitely works in assault, or at least was prior to the last patch, haven't done any solo capping hits since the most recent patch though. I always run with Cap Accel on though, so I never got a chance to see the difference without it. I'll give it a try in a few of my lights/mediums as well to see if I get the same results.

I can attest it does work for Jenners, on any mode. Pop it on the Jenner and the cap speed does increase. Time to fraps it!

Damn work

Immel, try the same thing in assault....

Personally I've never had a problem with cap accelerator. Then again I only run it on my raven. Its really does make a difference in the cap time, especially on conquest. I have also noticed that cap time is dependent on weight class.....so a 35ton mech will not cap as fast as a 65ton etc...

Are you sure about this? I've never seen anything stated on the devs about this and the only time I've ever seen increases in cap speed are from an accelerator or more mechs in the square, but not weight specific.

Submitting a ticket on this. Time to flip a point from neutral to friendly was 10 seconds, with or without cap accelerator in multiple drops. I only did this with a Jenner F thus far and will try in my other chassis, but I imagine the results will be similar there as well.
