This game has put the most emphasis on k/d and killing… There is an emphasis on killing and not dying while playing the objective. Pure PTFO players and Pure KD players lose out to those that do both. Being effective at both should be the goal of any player. ---

(I was obviously on objectives and in the thick of things or never would’ve gotten that many!) This game has put the most emphasis on k/d and killing… And I had a game once where I went 3-18, and was the #1 score simply from heals, revives, and capping flags. But that is irrelevant in this discussion, as this is a discussion on playing Supply Drop, where the ONLY way to win is to be capping the supply drops. If the entire team is focused purely on getting kills, and no one is capping, then that team will lose because the GAME score is based entirely on cap points ---

I’ve never gotten an MVP as medic(1 of 3 ribbons I’m missing) even on 300+ games. Then again I usually only play conquest so it’s a bit harder as I don’t focus on kills, just healing/revives for squad mates as well as blueberries… ---

Then again I usually only play conquest so it’s a bit harder as I don’t focus on kills, just healing/revives for squad mates as well as blueberries… The game I reference (where I was #1) was Conquest on Suez. Conquest is the mode I play most. But I also jump into Ops and Frontline from time to time. Attacking on Ops is where a good medic can really shine. Since the attacking team is limited, reviving people is imperative. ---

One of mine is also the 5 kills by plane. The others are game modes I don’t play (Rush, pigeons, dom), and one for getting 5 kills with revolvers- I might get that someday, but not counting on it. ---

I don’t even understand the point of the drops existing. You don’t add to the team score by winning them. You add to the team score with kills. I completely ignore the drops and take the easy kills on ppl trying to get to them. I’ve played a few games now where we’ve won one maybe two drops and absolutely slaughtered the other team. It doesn’t matter that the drop gives the other team a single elite class when half my team is 20 and 10 at least by ignoring it. It seems broken to me at the most basic level, makes you wonder whether dice actually played their own game mode before releasing and charging ppl money for it ---

It seems broken to me at the most basic level, makes you wonder whether dice actually played their own game mode before releasing and charging ppl money for it I don’t think that a team can generate enough points (500) to win with control of only two supply drops. I was in a match yesterday where almost everyone on my team had a negative K/D with under 10 kills. While the other team had very good K/D ratios, and were killing us a ton, but we still won the match because we were getting points from the supply drops more than they were. If your team can deny the other access to the supply drops for the rest of the game until time runs out. Then I can see it happening that way, but two supply drops isn’t enough to get the max score required to win, and I don’t think that the difference can be made up with kills. ---

Right now Supply Drop is used 90% to unlock assignments. Everything that has to do with grenades/mortars can be unlocked extremely easy in this mode. The tiny open capture zones make it nearly impossible to play the objective. Also, it takes forever to empty the supplies and get the sentry kit. If this mode doesn’t get a major update that makes it easier to play the objective, it will die as soon as most players have unlocked their weapon assignments in my opinion.
