[quote][b]Posted by:[/b] Gig4t3ch [quote]It does promote team playing. You win your xp goes up and you lose it goes down. However, if you still do good and you get a deranker on your team it's only him that's going to get a severe penalty of the invisible xp. Losing with a good KD will still lower your xp, but just not as much. Your performance from kills and assists will help, as well as some for time holding flag. If you get a betrayal "x" amount of seconds before a flag cap then it won't count towards xp. The skill system should be about individual skill. It's about matching you with players of similar skill. If you guys don't care about individual skill, then why do you care about ranks?[/quote] The only thing that promotes playing as a team and winning is if you are only rewarded for the win. If there are any other parameters, people will work towards them instead of for the win. [/quote] 100% this...because if my personal performance is all that matters, I am grabbing the sniper every single game despite not being the best sniper in the game. Because I know it will give me the best chance of doing well. But if winning matters most, I will let the best sniper get it every single time, because not only will he help the team by getting more kills, his cover helps me as well. Playing AT ALL for individual performance hurts team play.
