Some like to demo rush, other repair. The game does not favor the engy who enjoys repairing units.

My problem is how people leave at the end of the game just so they dont go down in points, it means your taking all the punishment for losing

Your score is still updated even if you leave the game.. I don't know what they think they're trying to get away with. That's why there are sometimes gaps in the score list at the end, from people that left the game. Unless of course the person that left wasn't in the game long enough.

1. A few vehicles can camp a building and block entrances, leaving it next to impossible to repair correctly

2. Even when 1 or 2 engineers are in a building it undergoes massive internal splash damage which in a large hit kills everyone inside.

3. In a "well played game" base/building destruction is by beacon placement.

For these three points, building and vehicle repair should be increased to balance both attacking and defending people, or at the very least be a server side option to make the game more balanced.

I don't think you should gain extra money, only that pts should be increased. That would balance this aspect of the game, since in C&C a player can turtle well for long periods of time and can only be defeated by a player or in Renegades case, a team of greater skill level. In my experience, defending teams play just as hard, or harder then attacking teams with little or no cash flow, which naturally should get that team more points when at a greater disadvantage in the game.

Example... your barracks and power plant is destroyed, then for any kill done as a regular free character you now get double the points for your skill in utilizing lower class characters without access to higher technology. It's only logical that handicapped teams become balanced when at an extreme disadvantage to compensate and give them a fighting chance regardless of skill level.

This also makes the other team have to enter a building with infantry to clear out the engineer nests, it makes the other team have to work as a team against a weaker foe with weaker equipment. And thus, the balance is maintained if both teams power and barracks is out, and makes the game cool.

1.The game is about blowing up the enemy's base says so on the loading screen.
2.Yes, you should get more points for repairing stuff this is saving your teamates from death or the building from destruction.
3.But, it is not as important as the necessarily heroics of blowing the crap ot out of the enemy
4.I have both recieved, written and red a few recomendations for medals and not one of them began 'for outstaanding teamwork' they all began with some variety of 'for duty above and beyond..." or 'for courage under fire....'

ps If you want to get points don't cry about the system's injustices just KATN
