Frontline Should Be 1v1 not 2v1

Why not just make it so the losing team grants less battle high points when killed by a team ahead of them in points.

Will dis-incentivize "farming" the losing team for BH.


So a knockout against the losing team grants 2 points towards BH, instead of 10.

Assists will no longer grant battle high if against a member of the team with the lowest points.

Not sure that would work, even though I see the thinking.

Let's say you get s rank in spawn in the beginning of the game.
Both teams come try to get you - you successfully defend and kill them.
Some of your team will die, but overall your team will have more points and you have less BH because enemies don't give you as much BH even if you defeated them. So all of a sudden next encounter you have more points, but enemy has higher BH despite performing poorly.


Personally, I've advocated for cutting rewards for 2nd and 3rd place.

3rd place sure.
Not second. Frontlines has too much RNG with some of the maps that you can get screwed over even if your team works together well. Having an incentive to not be last I think would be good enough to get people to at least try a little bit.

3rd place sure.

you underestimate how easy it is to farm 2nd place...just farm 3rd place = done
being 2nd isn't an achievement that should be rewarded over 3rd

I mean at much as it sucks that people only do FL for exp and make matches worse for those of us who actually enjoy the mode and want to play to win, making the rewards only for 1st place is still not very viable in the long run. Getting less rewards is fine.

To be honest, while people know about the daily FL bonus, a lot of the playerbase doesn't know about the reward scaling. First place gets 100%, second place 75%, third place 50%. Think if it had a results screen saying you got "2x" or "+100%" rewards for first, or if you really want to freak people out, phrase it as "50%" for third like it is, would goad more people into participation.
