Re: commander mode!

you get points from your team, which is why you do not get points for artillering people, capturing points etc. If you support your team, you'll get points. The more capture points and kills your team gets, the more points you get.

Re: commander mode!

1st. Check the forums before you post. This topic has been posted many, many, many times.
2nd. You don't get points for any kills you have as commander, Artillery or otherwise.
3rd. The commander points are the total points accumulated by your team divided by the number of people on your team rounded down. This is to encourage you to help your team rather than just help yourself.
4th. Keep your team well supplied and informed, and use artillery as more of a surgical tool rather than "ooo i can hit like 3 guys here" even though 2 of your squads are in the same location. Do this and youll get plenty of Cmd points, if you do your job right and you win these will be doubled at the end of the round.

Re: commander mode!

Little understood fact: You will get a lower score if you use artillery a lot.

There's only a limited amount of tickets in the game. Each kill (that isn't revived by a medic) knocks the enemy tickets down. If you are making those kills with artillery, your guys don't get any points for 'em. Since the enemy has still lost tickets, you've effectivly taking possible points away from your guys... thus lowing your potential score.
