[CC] Overtime issue

I think I came across with the overtime issue.

Both teams have reached the 1st capture point but there's no team that finish capture 1st point. The overtime ended as soon as no one contest the Crystal, which result as the team stand on the crystal wins.
Isn't normally the overtime will last until one of two teams captured the 1st point and reach more than 50% of overall progress?

If I'm wrong, please correct me about this situation.

If I'm wrong in my interpretation my apologies but if both teams reach their respective checkpoints and haven't gained a lead then if the match reaches overtime there's some criteria that results in a win

Checkpoint completion is more than your opponent i.e 100% vs 50% then theres 80% vs 20% (doesn't specifically have to be this ratio .......as far as im aware) or 100% vs %100 ( in this case or others there's the factor of kills as to who has more as well as the duration of overtime, so if it's 10 min (not sure on the limits of duration could be less or more) an the kill score is 19k vs 18k - had this happen to me) unless the losing team is on crystal to contest at which point the checkpoint completion will be needed, I'm probably missing a few other things but these are examples I've noticed

From my game last night, my team reached 100% but got wiped out. Another team hasn't reached 100% yet. The overtime ended with my loss.
That's why I got confused, or maybe I'm blind on the progress UI.

Possibly, after every loss it's best to look over the score board, while it tells only half of the story its good to look over

Scenario 1
If your team reaches the checkpoint before the clock runs out while your opponent's team has not reached the checkpoint before the clock runs out, the opposing team can not leave the crystal and must stay on the crystal until they reach the checkpoint, clear the checkpoint, and move the crystal to 50.1% or they lose.

Scenario 2
If both teams have reached the checkpoint before the clock runs out but neither team has cleared the checkpoint, once overtime starts both teams are able to leave the crystal without losing the game. However only the team that both breaks the checkpoint AND moves the crystal to 50.1% will be declared the victor.

Note about scenario 1: it is very important to keep track of whether each team has reached the checkpoint before or during overtime. Often times a losing team will push the crystal to the checkpoint DURING overtime, then fall back to regroup and immediately lose the game.

Note about scenario 2: There are times where your team is the first to clear the checkpoint but your party wipes. Just because you cleared the checkpoint does not mean you will be the victor. You must also push the crystal that extra 0.1% otherwise the opposing team now has an opportunity to also clear the checkpoint and push 0.1% to win the game.

Hope this helps, was just chilling here eating breakfast and thought I'd chime in lol.

An older screenshot but I think this was such a case. It is pretty counter intuitive sometimes, because my team seems to be in enemy base, pushing the crystal according to map. Both team have 50% - we still lose.

They should add a special symbol to indicate the checkpoint has been cleared in the scoreboard, to make it more obvious. Because progress wise - it is the same.

And this should probably count as a draw, if you ask me.

I think I might face this kind of scenario. Because I heard the sound of the checkpoint reach 100% so I decide to fall back and regroup, the moment I step away I lost.

Thank you for the explanation, hopes this will all help the players understand some of unclear situation.
