Whether you’re escorting or defending you should get points for every X seconds that you’re successfully moving or halting the train. You’re sort of a sitting duck when you’re on the train and you get zero capture points for holding it down. You’re also pretty much guaranteed a death by playing the objective so there is little to show for who is helping their team win and who is just sniping people jumping on and off the train.
Players should be rewarded for successfully playing the objective and providing an inevitable death to help the team win.
Camp is a generous word considering to get inside you have to run to catch up to it (this mode auto-destroys rally points like crazy), sprint through all the gunfire that comes straight down from the tracks on either side, lose half your squad as they try to figure out how to board the thing, then stand with little cover in an armored train car which has 4 doors wide open and no cover on the inside.
Also it would be interesting to see some slight curves in the track. This would allow players on either end of the train to get a look at each other which could be really interesting.
That’s a good idea, there should be more incentives to get on the train.
Train escort is another mission that they introduced but never bothered to revisit and improve much. I think it’s got so much potential but it’s so clunky it’s hard to play. I hope at some point they can go in and refine this and the other missions that aren’t quite there yet
I think it could be interesting if when the train reaches a point then 1-2 capture points must be taken on either side to allow the train to continue on. The points would function like assault; the defenders can recapture them. Reinforcements would come with successful capture instead of train progress
Old day, Train have 5 stop point, and people complain about the game talking too long to complete (Laugh over you confrontation) then the mode get nerf really hard. I agree, Add Capture Zone point and objective defended/attacked point (kill near zone) to current mode. Also make defender spawn closer (300 → 200 or 100) and attacker spawn farther (50 → 100). This game mode is fun but the amount exp you got is laughable
