Let's Discuss Capture The Flag [CTF]!

[HUGHIY 568]

Players are divided into 2 teams. The goal is to capture the enemy’s flag, and to prevent the opposing team from capturing yours. If you take the flag and then get killed, you lose it. However, your teammates can retake it and continue. If the flag is touched by an enemy’s tank, it automatically returns to their base. The same applies to your team’s flag. To capture the flag, you need to pick up the enemy’s flag and bring it to your flag. For the capture to be successful, your flag needs to be at your base. Victory goes to the team who has captured the most flags by the end of the game, or who reaches the target amount of captures specified in the battle settings. The amount of crystals you get is based on how many flags you have captured, and the number of enemy tanks you have destroyed.

A CTF battle is limited by time, or by a set number of captured flags. It is the most popular mode in Tanki Online.

This mode is not as profitable as Deathmatch mode when it comes to earning crystals (here, a lot depends on teamwork), but due to the bonus XP on offer for capturing and returning flags, the battle fund grows as fast as that in DM battles.

The recipe for success in CTF battles is simple. Instead of simply destroying enemy tanks, pay more attention to flags. Thus, by capturing and returning flags, and by destroying those who try to take yours, you will not only be extremely useful for your team, but will also score a lot more points than by just destroying enemy machines.

How does the exp reward for capturing the flag work?

 

I mean I understand that I get 100 points when playing vs 10 tankers but quite often I also get less points and it isn't rounded number, for example 56 or 62...

 

Can anyone explain me?

read the below:

http://help.tankionline.com/topic/636269-which-is-the-formula-to-know-how-many-crystals-we-will-receive-in-the-battle/

 

also check this:

 

SL = Score Losers

SW = Score Winners

FL = Flags Losers

FW = Flags Winners

min means, that in the odd case when the losers have scored more than the winners, in the formula, SL/SW should be replaced by 1

 

 

btw, I am amazed, that someone can get to this rank and still be unaware of the basics of the game ...

next time you ask when does the Gold fall )))
