Command Points

[LA_MERC_Andyconda]

Ok I've commanded a lot lately and have gotten pissed at not knowing how to score points. So I did some research and from what I can gather is it doesn't matter what you do the commander gets the average of the teams score. So basically now no matter how many peopl eyou arty or kill or how many CP's you cap as commander you just get your teams average. THAT SUCKS ASS! IS this true!

man thats what I got out of what I read to. Pissed me off when 6 people go down cause of a nice arty hit but I dont get the points....hmm

yeah that is what I can tell as well Andy, then the winning commander gets x2 bonus

BTW Toby should know that mofo has 79hrs as commander :eek:

actually that may not be accurate.

i think you get 1 point for killing someone with your kit like regular play. you also get points for cap'n flags and neatralizeing them.

so if you play like normal and just add commanding in the mix, you should get more then 2x the team avg.

i have been playing commander a little bit lately and that what i do and it works out pretty good for me. ussually get gold if my team wins.

I know you do not get any points for capping points yourself, as I have capped it then looked at the score to see no change, I know you do not get any points nor kills for arty.
I see points in the columns but they do not always add up.
...still confused about this?

same confussed myself when i look at the end of the round it dosent show my say 10+ kills for arty etc. but at the same time ive gotten my veteran badges for spec ops and i think engineer while being commander. i assume i met the kill requirements for thats kits veteran lvl. i also wasnt sure if i got any more points or not for spotting targets it seemed like first few times i didnt know i had that ability and once i got used to it i was calling/spotting all the time and seemed like that was the days i got 100+ points commanding. not sure if actually does anything or just me making something up haha.
