What are Command Points?

[Finalheaven]

Are they points that you've received while being commander? Or points you've received through Commander actions?

I'm going for the ribbon now, but when I got the badge, I hit 40 points in game, and received the badge (finished with an 81 for that round), but I received those 40 points but not only being commander, but also running around and shooting things. I did have great squads though. They kept asking for UAV and supply drops and arty, and I always had them available.

From being commander.

When you play as commander, it only takes into account the points you gain as commander looking at the commander screen. Kills and such don't count.

OK, that's what I disagree with. And I thought the first reply was right. Just from being a Commander, are your points considered command points. Like I said, I had a score of 40 total, and I received my Command badge, which needs 40 command points, I believe. I had received those 40 points by not only being a competent Commander, but also running around and killing things.

When you are the commander you always get the average points of your team. And if you help your team, the team will get more points and you will get more points.

Oh. That's interesting. Ok, more complicated than I thought.

Re: What are Command Points?

I was basing my 'theory' on the python scripts that works out the player scoring.



# give commander score for every player score
def addScore(player, points, subScore = NORMAL, subPoints = -1):


# commander doesnt get score for regular actions, only for pure commander tasks.
if not player.isCommander() or subScore == CMND or points < 0:
