Conquest Mode, Frozen City. I was unable to cap Kappa and Sigma. The cap bars would not flash and advance when I was sitting on the base. A jenner in my group was having the same problem also.

I was just playing a game in my Commando 2D, I rushed the enemy base with a Wang on my team, we stood on the enemy base for about 2 mins and nothing happened! the enemy then entered our base to cap and win?!?!?!?


it was on caustic region, the cap on the northern end of the map, has anyone else encountered this??

Hi
I just played a game in conquest where I was in a commando, and on my own captured 2 resource points. At the end of the game, on the details screen, it said I had no capture assists. This is obviously not working correctly? or am I missing something? here is a screen shot to prove it:

I have never seen this work in conquest, ever.... only in assault, and of course only if that is how the game concluded, with your team winning by capturing the others base. Now, if it was meant to work in Conquest, then that would be cool... however the more and more people play conquest the more and more I see people grabbing a couple resources then slugging it out over the "Theta" point...

It is very obviously working as intended.

Yes, you read neither patch notes nor the relevant thread in the command chair section.

On the other hand, it does raise a rather good point: why should pilots not be awarded for repeatedly capturing several points and thus stopping their team from losing by resources? Or is the argument "if you don't cause damage, you aren't contributing"?

Could you direct me to something along those lines? I try to stay up to date, and I very much am sincere when I ask these questions. I do not see why I wouldn't recieve any cap assists

P.S. I was never saying that I couldn't capture a point, so I'm surprised my thread got merged into this one

ok so I see there is no reward for capping, even in conquest mode (this would make sense as you get the resource bonus) but it doesnt make sense as to why they have a section that states how many captures you assisted in and leave that number at 0. I don't need a reward for it, but i thought it was a bug that it is not showing how many caps you were a part of.

Thanks for the link Snib

Oh do they list it? In that case that really sounds wrong (edit: I never play conquest so I'm not familiar with the UI).

yeah, just look at that screen shot I posted in my first post. You'll see in the middle column, theres one that says: "Capture Assist" but it says 0. anyway, I think they may even have this in assault mode? I'm not sure
