A bigger crystal reward for CTF?

[r_DidYouKnowThat0 1,662]

Is it just me or does CTF need a bigger crystal reward to close winners? I agree with the fact that if you win ???-0, the losing team shouldn't receive any crystals because they captured absolutely no flags at all. However, if it's a close battle say 55-57 or 60-150(At least they've managed to capture some flags), then the losing team should receive more crystals instead of just 10 or 20.

Example: CTF- Crystal fund: 800 crystals.

Maximum Flags-> 5

Time Limit-> 25 minutes

Maximum members (6 on each team)

Results of battle: Red team wins: 5-4

The losing team should receive something like 350 of the battle fund?

I kind of think that this adjustment would've been better than Update 123's idea of ''spreading'' the crystals to each player thus lowering the crystal gain. This would generally be a better way for ''spreading'' the crystals to each player in CTF maybe? Agree or Disagree?

In a way yes, but the winner deserves it because they fought for it. If the other team who lost 55 to 57, they wouldn't try as hard to win because they would get almost the same amount of crystals.

It's better to be 57-57 tie than to be 56-57 because even if it's just one lost flag at the last second, the crystals the losing team gets is just too little. The difference between a tie and an especially close battle is just split apart by too big of a margin.

FYI this already exists in the game :huh:

What? Lol. I'm saying how the Losing team in a CTF battle should be able to receive some more crystals in the aftermath of the battle because currently I think it's just too low of how much they receive. They put their time into the game just as much as the winning team did.

But there is a reason why one team is called "winning team" and the other one is not. If you play a long battle (drugs or no drugs), you want to receive a prize that suits the effort you made in the battle, so if you won you deserve a higher amount of crystals than the team that lost.

Giving a similar amount of crystals to both the team, no matter the one that won and the one that lost, doesn't make sense since doing so you will ruin the game. You will ruin it due to the fact that you won't play to win as you should do in TO (you play in battles to win and receive more crystals than if you lost), you will just play and wait for the end to receive some crystals (you play in battle sand you don't mind to win or to lose, you know you will get crystals anyways), and that won't be TO anymore.

I'm not saying make it equal. I agree on the fact that if one were to make it equal, winning would become pointless and thus it will be all about kills. However, just 10 crystals for putting your time and drugs into the battle is a bit harsh. Edited April 22, 2013 by r_DidYouKnowThat0

I guess that is true to get at least something. I never said anything about winning however, This was not about winning in the first place. I was just saying how miniscule the Crystal reward for the Losing team was, and seeing if others agreed with me.

Its good right now, how darw you to complain!!!

I'm not sure how I dare to complain other than the fact that I logged in on Tanki Forums, went to the General sections, and made this topic. Then I just typed what I thought about it. Edited April 22, 2013 by r_DidYouKnowThat0

60% is still not enough for you ..... i am surprised the devs caved in for that

[MusicJam19 737]

It is still significantly lower than before 123, so why can't he complain?

In life, there is always a winner and a loser. deal with it...

I am too, but I guess they saw by the amount of players who spend time in battles greatly decreased and they had to do something. Although we're only 80% back to what it was, it's much more appealing than 50%.

[hhgb 2,655]

Why not if it is a no-supplies battle have the 500 crystals spent to get in go into the fund?

[r_Yamcha0 0]

The winner takes it all. As an old song says.

As winning team's top warrior I get about 30% of battle fund. I'm happy of that. People must learn to win their loot, this isn't USA. Pay the price to get the prize

 

EDIT: Today I got 72.5% of fund - 808 of 1117 crystals.

At war only the winner get treasures. Of course you can add several crystals as a prize based on gained points and K/D. Situations when team playing like Real Madrid against Borussia Dortmund get a share is just sick.

I like the idea +1 :D

[WOLFCHANTZ3 1]

I don't agree

[williew 1,999]

Don't agree.

The most times Im in the winning team..;)

So dont change :P

 

No I understand your point, but I think it isn't right if you are in the winning team', the fund is for exaple 800 and the stand is 8-2..

Than its isnt right if the winning team get 450 crystal and the losing team 350..

I think its good as it is..

 

Conclusion:

Don't agree.

Lol, not that much. I'm not saying give most of the crystals to the Losing team. Goodness, I meant something such as 8-7, then the crystal score for the losing team should be at least bigger than 30 crystals. If it were 8-2 of course the losing team doesn't deserve 350/800 Crystals. They do give their time to see the end of the battle instead of just quitting the battle and leaving the other team.

My dear OP, realising or not , what you're asking is some what similar to the distribution of the battle fund which was part of the 123 update. That update triggered a lot of "hassle' which made a lot of players left the game. The losing team has to put in more effort to win any game they entered. I had been in CTF and TDM games where there's a lot of 'sleeping players' (players that use chat a lot or just simply took time out in the middle of the game) or the 'crystal farmers' who doesn't really care whether the team is losing or winning (very frustrating in TDM). There were also players in CTF who played like they were in TDM, not willing to do their part in capturing the flag, all they know is to make kills and not getting killed, even if their team flag is being captured by the enemy, they would run for cover.

The winning team DO deserve the earning percentage of the battle fund.

I think you're just saying that, because you always lose in CTF battles and/or your team mostly gets 0 flags. If one team has at least 1 flag and the other has 0 then the team with one captured flag, gets all crystals and the one, which got 0 gets nothing. It's because it's CTF, mate and destroying players won't count. When I joined Sandal first, when I was really small rank I didn't even realise how I get crystals, so I got really, really happy when I got like 5 crystals. Then it came to the point, where I joined Boombox winter version and crystal boxes fell and I was like o_o until I found out about gold boxes and when I cought one by accident, which fell on my head I was even more like O_O

No way. I always try to join the Winning team, or I drug for the Losing team. :D Furthermore, I keep telling you guys, I agree with the fact that if they've (The Losing Team) has captured 0 flags, then they do deserve nothing because I'm guessing that they just resort to Crystal Hunting. However, I'm talking about the ones who've lost because of just one flag. Shouldn't they receive just a tad bit more? And I do not want you guys to think I'm talking about giving the losing team 50% or more. At least give them credit for sticking through and enabling the battle to go on for the other team instead of just leaving the moment they start losing.
