More points for blowing Commander assets up...

I just finished a round where I immediately capped the MEC flag at the Communications Center on Operation Clean Sweep, 32 man map. Then I ran around blowing up the arty, UAV, dish. Their Commander would drop supplies to fix things, I'd throw C4 on the asset, stock up on more C4, then blow it up. Kept it up the whole game, killed 3 Engineers trying to fix them, and their Commander 3 times, just had a blast.
Ended up with 17 lousy points. We won, and I know that I had a lot to do with it, cuz they had no arty or UAV.
I would suggest two points for every asset blown past three, then three for the next three, etc.
I would also suggest the same type of rewards system for engineers. You lay there in the open with no weapon, just a wrench, for like 30 seconds for one lousy point.

Comments?

everyone is complaining about noob tubes and stuff its all BS (well Mostly)

this is something EA could really do to improve the game.

one problem tho i just thought of is statpadding. get an engi and a c4 guy both on separate teams and thats a really good way to get pts.

I hear ya, but there's always gonna be padders. Not much you can do but kick them.

BTW, killed an Anti-Tank since I patched that came right at me firing his tube and jumpin... once. SWEET!

I agree, you should get points for destroying armor, because they are valuable assets. You put in two rounds, whether tank, or anti-tank, or APC missile, then the guy jumps out and runs. You should get one for the armor whether you kill him or not, and one if you kill the guy.

Agreed. 1 Point for the effort is no where near worth it. Perhaps if they increased the points people would want to blow up artillary more and thus not have it raining down on us
Next they need to fix the supply crate BS repairing assets.

I'd say 1 bonus point for blowing up a tank or apc with an anti-tank/engi/spec ops, along with the kills you get.

I think the following would be cool...

Bonus Team Points:

3 for killing enemy aircraft while on foot.
2 for killing enemy aircraft while in any non-air vehicle.
1 for killing enemy aircraft while in other aircraft.

2 for killing enemy armor while on foot with any kit weapon.
1 for killing enemy armor while in other armor.

1 for killing enemy transports in any manner.

2 for killing enemy assets in any manner, responding to "set demolitions" order.
1 for killing enemy assets in any manner, without "set demolitions" order.
2 for destroying a bridge in any manner, responding to "set demolitions" order.
1 destroying a bridge in any manner, without "set demolitions" order.

2 & punish immunity for killing anybody with more than 10 punished teamkills in one match.

Hell, I was taking out commander assets before we got points for it!

I did it for the team, not for the points!

However I will say I was very happy to get points for it when they added it. Would be happier to get 3-4!

With that logic they might as well eliminate the shock paddles too, cause they're might be stad padders.

EA shouldn't ruin the game because of stats padders, but rather ban them.

I agree that points should be distributed evenly, according to an effort taken to get them. Have you seen tanks fighting in a Karkand? Me neither Why bother to fight other tanks, when you can get MUCH more points for just killing helpless infantry?
AT soldiers? Come on, five shots to get one-two points for a tank? Again, why bother? Just because it looks nice?

I'm not sure (new to BF2), but I guess that plane whores turned into tank whores. Wasn't that difficult to predict, was it?

One more observation - I just learned to use C4 against armor and I still guess - what the hell is AT class for? Noobtubing or what? It's much easier to survive in most situations when SpecOps...

Bottomline: I definitely agree that points earned for destroying enemy assets (tanks, planes, UAV, artillery) should be increased.

i agree with this except that i think it's not your fault if the commander doesn't tell you to blow up the assets, so i think you should get 2 points per asset no matter what. other than that, i can't believe EA doesn't have a system like this in place already. EA if you're reading this, seriously, it's about time this was balanced out.
