Capture Perkies...
« on: April 12, 2005, 03:20:03 PM »
Hi Guys,

If there is one element of the game that leads to bad feelings that could be easily changed, its the capture perks system. Few things are more frustrating than flying or driving for miles only to have someone else show up after you have started unloading and have his first trooper be the last one in the map room for the capture, for which you get zip, zilch, nada.

Instead of making it a race between countrymen to be the first to dump the last troop in the map room and thus get all the credit and perks. Why not switch to something like the following:

1) Each troop successfully entering the map room in a destroyed city= between 0.5 & 1 perk point
2) Being the one to finally capture the city = between 5 & 10 perks.

Thus you would actually get rewarded for getting troops in, despite the fact that you didn't get the final capture. Far more people would be encouraged to fly or drive to the city even though they know another goon or bus is on the way.

What, for those awesome bomber perks which can only be used on Arados?  Woooo! :)

Would be quite nice for m3s, however.

Hehe, there was a time, and not too long ago when you couldn't get anybody to fly a goon for capture or resupply. I think it's kinda funny now, that there are those who will bust their butts to compete over a capture, let alone to complain about stolen captures :rofl

I like this idea!
Corkyjr on country jumping:
In the end you should be thankful for those players like us who switch to try and help keep things even because our willingness to do so, helps a more selfish, I want it my way player, get to fly his latewar uber ride.
