Rewards, Updated! |  |
Taking everyone`s feedback into consideration, here`s my updated EP distribution and the details on how it was scored.
Every participant receives 2 Base EP.
Each phase is then scored independently based on contribution:
0–1,000 = No additional EP
1,001–5,000 = +1 EP
5,001–24,999 = +2 EP
25,000+ = +3 EP
These contribution bonuses are earned separately in Phase 1 and Phase 2.
Phase placement bonuses are also awarded separately for each faction:
1st Place = +3 EP
2nd Place = +2 EP
3rd Place = +1 EP
The player with the highest contribution across BOTH factions in each individual phase receives an additional +2 EP.
Phase 1 Overall Winner: ThePlague
Phase 2 Overall Winner: piperrepip
All members of the winning Collective faction receive +3 EP.
All bonuses stack.

I`ll take an additional round of feedback on this EP distribution before finalizing. Keep in mind there will be more rewards added to the shop and more EP to be earned in future events which will be increasing in frequency.
Yes, your account still shows 0 EP. I will update that as soon as we get to a point where the majority is happy with the distribution. Remember this is all still a work in progress so I`d like to hear everyone`s perspective on it before this becomes the permanent solution moving forward. |

6 hour(s) ago | Thanks for doing all the work on this Targs, multiple times.
I do question the logic behind capping at +3 though. Assuming they don`t place in the top 3, but they do let`s say 60k contribution points, it`s still just +3
Is the goal to disincentivize folks from participating beyond a certain point? It seems like the current structure prioritizes signing up for the event, doing just low effort contribution, then watching the rest.
Beefing up the reward for being on the winning side is nice (if you win) but still sucks if you lose - particularly if it`s a close loss.
THIS time, the major contributors on the losing team got a lot of points by being top 3 contributors, in large part to a lack of contributors.
I can only imagine though if the scores were closer, and someone like me lost after putting in 50k contribution points and not getting a top 3 reward for my team. Id walk away massively disappointed with my point payout despite putting in a heavy individual contribution.
I think we`ve moved in the right direction this time situationally, but in a different scenario I think we might be overweighting winning and underweighting individual contribution (particularly for the losing team)
TLDR - I love to reward the winning side, but I would want to ensure that strong contributors on the losing side also got rewarded sufficiently, and the low individual contribution cap for unranked players seems like it need another tier or two |

I`m looking into adding a modifier for pre-infection damage contributions. Thanks for the feedback! |

2 points for me
1. Shouldnt only be 1 overall per-phase winner.. i did a lot to contribute to my side in phase 1 too. Feels like my contribution is being sidelined…
2. Phase 2 post ship nerf points are just whoever was able to play at that particular time the most…
Some mix of Phase 1 points / rank and then a phase 2 points / rank was better from the 1st draft..
Also think +3 points for winner is too much. Number of people on either side notwithstanding the ship nerf to accelerate the event “just to get it over with” really made it a click click repeat event with 0 thought… |
