Why are so many people unwilling to build it in this game? Because it is a purely altruistic act and you will not get much benefit.
Building a rally point is a waste of time. After you build it, you will still line up like everyone else, and you will only get a pitiful 45 points. If I throw a few grenades in front of me during this time, I will still get more than this pitiful score.
So everyone chooses not to build it for their own benefit, why should they build it? That will only hurt my efficiency in gaining EXP
The whole atmosphere is full of damn selfishness
I sometimes do it myself, and what do I get? There is a respawn queue that is so long that it makes people collapse. My own respawn point is occupied by teammates who do not build a respawn point. I can’t even jump in the queue.
What did I get? A pitiful 45 points is like a score given to a beggar
I think the situation would be better if you could jump in line and be resurrected. If others don’t want to be jumped in line, they can fix it themselves.
More effort means more rights
In addition, if only one player builds a resurrection point, he will not win in many cases. You have worked hard but there is no reward, which will make people depressed for a while.
sounds interesting on paper, but without proper balancement, would just end up replacing rallies and almost shit tons of medics running around reviving anyone under fire like it was on BF3.
plus, wouldn’t really be realistic.
but cool to see and a function that i would love to have in mods.
EDIT.
ah, perhaps you are talking about skipping the que as you built that rally point.
sure, i guess.
well… in enlisted you earn more points destroying tanks.
not rallies.
but in the end, what makes you win, majority of the times are rallies. not tanks.
This game is built on selfishness and kill hoarding instead of helping the team or working together so there’s not much incentive to work together really.
Yeah the Devs forgot this fricking game should be promoting teamplay than lonewolf, you seriously cant make any assit and support action gain dogshit score
It takes too long to build them even with building perk, people are lazy and don’t want to spend so much time on building them while they could be shooting. They should make base building speed +40% and upgraded at +80%, plus give more points for building it. Plus one person should be able to build more than a single spawn beacon as long as the use different engineer.
I build them usually on my way to an objective only times I dont is when I’m either leveling a new squad that does’nt have a engineer yet, or noone in our team needs one because we are racing eachother to the next objectives. I find most of my teams look like that scoreboard Wieloglow posted, unless I play with a squadmate I have to go into every game assuming I’ll have to do fucking everything myself, build rally, play objective sweep for enemy rally, whatever. I don’t think building the rally itself takes too long but when I’m still leading the charge after building one for 30 seconds cause my team is a bunch of cowards, then I’m then attacking an objective where all my enemies had 30 more seconds to prepare and position and get ready, and that is pretty big, it’s the difference between them and their squads still running ing the back and them being posted up in windows looking my way waiting for me to appear.
I think the points gained are pretty decent, esp. if yours is the only one up. I have given up on stupid teams though a lot of times now if I’m the only one building rally and something happens to mine and noone wants to pick up the slack I will just the leave them to their fate and try to find a better game. I look at the desert match button more like a server browser these days, I’ve played enough horrible games here to know when a team is just roping for 20 mins and they don’t need me to accomplish that.
Lol, don’t be so short-sighted. How long does it takes to go to a place and build a rally point? Maybe 30 seconds. How many points you can get in 30 s ? Moreover a rally point can be use multiple time so the overall point you will get is way more. In addition, rally points can save you a lot of time because you don’t need to run 100+ meters from the default spawn to the cap zone.
well, people don’t build rally point because they’re either dumb, really dumb, didn’t have any engineer whatsoever (kinda dumb), their engineer is already dead and they didn’t have any spare engineer, their current squad have no engineer and they’re too good to die.
you know, why couldn’t the dev just… make the exp and whatnot you get from battle pooled? like, the entire team score is combined and then distributed to the players. if you got those fancy medals, your share get multiplied.
i think that will somewhat encourage team play more, and make me feel less inclined to hurl insults to the team when they think they’re playing battlefield or other action shooter for super fast smooth brain zoomer.
The opinion that constructing a rally point is an altruistic act is questionable.
I build it because I want to use it myself.
There is certainly the problem of not being able to use my rally point because someone else is using it, and I wish they would let me use a priority queue or something.
If other players don’t build a rally it’s either simply because they are newbies and don’t know the benefits of building it, or they are F2P players with very limited squad slots and don’t have an engineer on their team.
