Ok, time for another whine from me. I cant simply figure out what im doing wrong while xping. Seems to me that im not getting correct xp or something dodgy is happening.

Ergo :

Person 1 ) BR17 , Facilities hacked 129, total kills 937

Person 2 ) BR18 , Facilites hacked 95 , total kills 626

Me , Person 3 ) BR14 , Facilities hacked 119, total kills 1825


Now bare with me... the xp gap is 300k .... soloing gives prime xp but at the same time you miss out on Squad capture xp <ergo 150xp per kill solo, about 1k per capture>, while in squad kills give virtually nothing while you can get prime xp for capture <ergo 3xp a kill, 6k xp per capture>.

Following this argument i should be on par with Person 1 and Person 2.... but somehow i am not, just how weird is this XP system after all ???

:rolleyes: :rolleyes: :rolleyes: :rolleyes: :rolleyes:

It is a strange xp system but were all gonna be BR20 within 2 weeks so what's it matter?

Well, it may take some of us a bit longer.. me for example, 2 chars at BR7, 1 at BR5 and 1 at BR4 so far :)

I think what Ivan is trying to say is, why have some characters got so much more exp than others?

I'm not however going to offer any theories or explanations from my point of view, because I've done that before, and I don't want this one to turn personal as well :)

The irony that Deadmanwalking of all people would spot irony where there is none, no doubt.

Please correct me if I'm wrong, but don't you get less experience for someone who has recently respawned?

So if I squad kill 10 people who have just spawned and get 1xp for each of them well thats 10xp.
And if I solo kill 5 people who have been alive for (i dunno) a while and get 250xp for each one, thats 1250xp

So if I kill less people solo who have been alive longer I get more exp.

That could go some way into explaining the exp difference.
Base capping hasn't been taken into consideration here.

Also haven't they increased the base exp for kills recently too?Again, correct me if I'm wrong.

That's right,

For my opinions, see the topic I made earlier :p

There are a lot of things that could explain a lot of things. I think the point was that there is several hundred thousand exp difference and it's hard to explain all that.

*tries to resist getting drawn into this argument again* :p

Haven't really seen a difference so far however.

But then again, I've been driving a lightning around trying to catch up with the rest of my squad all morning so :p

Both resecure and base cap exp got upped.

Haven't had a chance to test resecure exp tho yet.
