revizion said: "We heard you like pve grind, so we put grind pve grind in your pvp"Needing 40 wins for the equivalent of 900 points in pvp is the same as taking 40 fights @ 22.5 points each. That's at least TWICE as many fights as I usually need to get the equivalent, since I rarely take fights worth < 45 points each.Of course they're limiting the 15 cp to t10 in each bracket. The grindy nature of needing to have at least 40 fights means people will be taking MORE fights, and knocking MORE points off of each other. What the quoted statistic overlooks is how many people REACH 1.2k in favor of how many FINISH with 1.2k. I know the reach # is higher because I can see it at the top of all my brackets. Overall fewer people will be getting the 15 cp.This is a regressive change IMO

How is one supposed to prevent another player from hitting progression rewards if we can't take away points from them? Please reconsider this, or let us give -1 win for each time we beat a player, or something. Why on god's green earth would you want to prevent another player from hitting progression? Do you just enjoy ruining someone's day?

Story Event players are typically doing 9 nodes x 4 plays each day of a 3 day event for their progression prize so that's 106 matches for that 4 star cover. 40 sounds like a deal.Story Mode also has the final command points at the end of the progession so it does seem odd they wouldn't leave the Versus mode final command points in progression and move it to placement. It would be nice if they move it back.

Might actually be good.Going to be some wailing and gnashing of teeth about putting the final prog reward over to placement, but whatever I'm just curious as to what placement you have to get for the CP.Brigby any info on this would be appreciated. The CP that was originally the final progression reward will be allocated to the top 10 placement ranks. We found that there were actually more players that reached top 10 compared to 1200 points, so moving it to placement will actually end up awarding it to more people!

Top ten, are you kidding? Hell, I had 1300 points last event and finished 48th.48th.... No where near top ten.Final CP reward needs to be rethought, other than that I'm all in.

That's got more to do with your slice than anything else. I've landed t10 with scores around 900 many times.
Very true... But it also flies in the face of what is being touted as normal.... For the record I've been playing in slice 4 lately.. mainly for the points... If this system is instituted I will rethink that for sure.
