gamercrux Posted December 20, 2011 Share Posted December 20, 2011 Hi! I noticed that scoring the ball doesnt give you anything more than 1 point. I mean, you should get medals for scoring X points. Because if you devote yourself to actually win the match (score 6points) you will get mb 1 medal and therefore no valor etc. Also, the medals that require you to crit 2.5 are real stupid. Since either you can or you cannot crit 2.5. No skill is required to do that. To see that there is a medal requiring you to crit high instead of winning the game makes you wonder....

It's probably to discourage people being too greedy with the ball and not pass them to team members. Maybe there can be medals you win if you assist a lot to the scorer, kinda like football.

songofprecept Posted December 20, 2011 Share Posted December 20, 2011 I thought scoring would be enough apparently you have to gain maximum return for minimum effort in every online environment these days.... Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Dynellen Posted December 20, 2011 Share Posted December 20, 2011 I agree there should definately be proper rewards for playing matches properly. The other day I for example did 3 or 4 goals in one game with 1-2 people helping me out. At the end of the match I was somewhere in the middle of the scoreboard while the people who did nothing towards us actually winning and just randomly fought somewhere gained all the medals and rewards.

Denisgsv Posted December 20, 2011 Share Posted December 20, 2011 i think not , passing the ball is already a little used feature , with such implementation i doubt anyone will pass it at all . And with good reason , why give someone medals or "maybe youre reward" bad thing imo Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
DKDArtagnan Posted December 20, 2011 Share Posted December 20, 2011 I assume the winning team gets more, which is the only thing that matters. If you want to win, then scoring is a good way to go about it. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

YpaWinz Posted December 20, 2011 Share Posted December 20, 2011 As someone who is equally passionate about football and PvP, I find huttball to be pretty incredible, but I also find it pretty frustrating that we're not rewarded properly for scoring. There's no incentive at all for winning the game, shutting out your opponent, or really even scoring touchdowns. A couple guildmates and I will usually queue as a group. We'll just roll in and score 3-4 times within the first minute or two, and then spend the rest of the match farming kills/medals (unless some wreckless Tebow on our team decides to 6 cap.) This is probably going to be the way to do it until something changes. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Carbonated Posted December 20, 2011 Share Posted December 20, 2011 Pretty sure you get points for doing objectives that award you a medal, one score isnt enough points by itself. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

This is probably going to be the way to do it until something changes. To append this - After thinking about it a bit, I kind of think that this is the way it should stay. If you think about how football works, there's no hardcap to scoring. You take the lead then control the clock. If you do this in huttball, you shift the focus from scoring to PvP where it should be. You're not only going to win the game, you're going to come away with kills, medals, xp, comms and the satisfaction of cleaning gallons of blood from your blade.

gamercrux Posted December 20, 2011 Author Share Posted December 20, 2011 Do you instantly win in reallife fotball when u score 6goals? But your argument is to score 1 then go on slay rampage? Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
chungkuo Posted December 20, 2011 Share Posted December 20, 2011 Hi! I noticed that scoring the ball doesnt give you anything more than 1 point. . Scoring the most makes your team win, and nets you the most reward/time. Apparently you want a cookie too. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
gamercrux Posted December 20, 2011 Author Share Posted December 20, 2011 Well, Im able to win a game 6-0 and get 0 medals. So you cant even mvp me even if I win the game solo, thats strange imo! Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
SeaRaptor Posted December 20, 2011 Share Posted December 20, 2011 Same way there's no medals or recognition at all for blowing doors or slicing consoles in Voidstar. I *think* you get some objective points for capping points in Alderaan, at least. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Whatevr Posted December 20, 2011 Share Posted December 20, 2011 ..... You're not only going to win the game, you're going to come away with kills, medals, xp, comms and the satisfaction of cleaning gallons of blood from your blade. But it's a lightsaber for many of us... lightsabers would just burn off the blood and it's light so the blood wouldn't even stay on the saber since it's not a solid object.

Screek Posted December 20, 2011 Share Posted December 20, 2011 (edited) This thread so much proff why there shouldt be a medal for scoring .... Its a team effort, and you get rewarded with winning, damn ego nowdays! i guess the guy who was walking in the right direction deserves the major reward for scoring? and not all the people who CC/heal/protect him. hmmm Edited December 20, 2011 by Screek Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
MrTerrito Posted December 20, 2011 Share Posted December 20, 2011 In all my videos I'm 100% going for the objectives, I think I'm gonna start farming people until the point/commedation allocation for winning/losing is changed. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Hey there is a value in the summary screen showing how much you carried the ball. So if you are one who scored, that contribution value will be higher. I often vote for those who have that highest value, but i am not sure how this contribution value affect xp, creds or value points. Thats still a mystery to me.
