They upped the cap exp last night so everyone can calm down now. We got 1900 xp for a hard fought cap.

Even if they up the experience, It still seems the support roles are still getting the shaft. I plan on playing infiltration and won't suffer from the change, but even i can see that some of the more important roles are getting hurt in the experience.

Everyone was happier with the previous system. If you want to slow leveling, lower the awarded experience. Don't hurt the support. Sure, many support don't mind it due to their FPS view, but you can even look at the poll on this site and see that the majority of players hate this new system.

Whoever came up with this "slice system" really needs to be shot....

I think people need to calm down and, for once, wait this out. Let them make ALL of their XP changes and then critique the problem. Personally I don't really care about the XP (BEP or CEP) when I play. I am out to kill or be killed and maybe along the way advance the front for my faction. I am part of an outfit, a regular member of a squad, and I play a support role. The new XP system isn't broke, it needs to be first finished, and then probably minorly adjusted.

SmokeJumper has already admitted to the oversite concerning support roles, and I am sure they will fix that. I guess I just play to play, and nothing more. (aside from bug reporting like invisible reaver missiles

)

Besides, I always thought towers were a hell of a lot more fun to fight over than bases. Right now, that is where all the "XP" is hiding. In towers. Last night just simply defending 2 different towers, I moved from BR11 to BR12. The process was pure unadulterated FUN. (this was on Amerish, Markov Server)
