TDM- no such thing as cheating.

so as i understand it MM in TDM is based on mk only??

 

Your point is... I cant see anything out of the ordinary. The other team is just slightly stronger in weapon strength.

 

Gear score and mk. In some matches I am with all mk4s, in others I am with weak mk5s or strong mk3s.

 

Nope, Gear Score

 

Crew training, ship mk level, and item level all come into play

 

No one should get banned but something needs to be changed before next event
It's fun for those who aren't effected by it and I imagine those causing the problem are having the time of thier life!
But some of those at the other end are not having fun at all. Simply because of a loop hole
Perhaps next time they fine tune it a little so captain lvl and crew training play into it as well? Then maybe we can have matches with the 1 Mk lvl in it but fairly! Because as it stands nearly every match has a couple of players in it that may as well be 2 or even 3 Mk lvl's above the rest
It always feels fair to those whore not affected

 

If crew lvl came into play we wouldn't have these problems? I'm pretty sure it's just gear score

 

Ok I have a solution. Switch to defender.

I'm being serious. Defender is OP in TDM

 

Lol I think supremecalamitas might be right? Lol also Mong about just gear score thing?
Those top 3 scorers in that pic by the way aren't like the others lol

 

I'm fairly certain it was miika who stated that crew training is also taken into account

 

Also I'd like to add that winning or losing has nothing to do with team death match (as some have said already you don't gain or lose infamy so these matches aren't as important) its all about earning stars to get the rewards! Players who do high damage still regularly get 2 stars on a losing team so having two fairly even teams means nothing if a member of each team is much stronger then the others they benefit either way
And the others trying to play fairget 1 star if they're lucky to be on the winning team

 

Reward system is clearly flaws against fixers, on the amount of star can be earn by fixer, a win usually reward with 1 star rarely 2 stars, and loss with absolute 0 star rarely 1 star, whilst for ships it is easier, it making virtually impossible for fixer to get legend perk, yet devs conveniencely missed out this flaw and staying quiet about it

 

To be fair tho it is the week end and there are alot of us complaining about something they've worked hard on lol
Hopefully these are just teething problems that will be fixed by the time next event comes around

 

What if you used your lowest gear and ships possible and relied on training tree to kill noobs?

 

you would be like steam roller
two important things: you need really good crew training and when you meet someone like you in other team then, well you must hope that you have better crew training and that you are more skilled

 

I don't think anyone will get banned for exploiting gear score system anytime soon.

 

no one will ever get banned if devs don't change rules

 

The problem is the exact same star-system being used in TDM, because the gameplay is a lot different. I'd suggest they make 2 guaranteed stars for non floaters on the winning team, 1 star for the highest performances on the losing team (fixing stars count on fixers, enfos and speeders that not only care about dealing damage).

As a NL player using lower gearscore I'm always trying to carry my team to a victory, I use communication commands a lot. I think it's kinda good for newbie players to learn some strategy from the higher experienced players... They find out how works a full crew-trained-weapon too, and they're also able to wipe us out, since we're not on our main boats. This last part can be pretty satisfactory I guess.

IDK it's just my opinion. Of course I hope in next events i'm able to use my main boat and my main setup without being deadweight for my team...

 

@KilledWhale just trolled my entire team.

 

How does he have two jingle bells?
