There's nmothing stopping you from doing anything though. What's happening is idiots are doing dumb things just to get exp. That won't change by dumping exp system though. Dumb people will find a reason to do dumb things, they've never needed an excuse.
What SJ said,
Yeah, I read it last night. I take everything a Sony rep says with a grain of salt however. If they didn't reduce the exp gain to make it take longer, why reduce it? It doesn't make sense.
I think the system for capping they had in place prior to these changes was great. You're in a squad and you and your squad are helping to cap a base, you got exp. Didn't matter how you capped it since as long as there was defenders and you killed them, you got the exp. The new system is dumb, it effectively rewards people for sitting on their arses. Not for capping or for killing enemies, but rather for just sitting around typing "/s toh?". It doesn't encourage defending at all either since once the cap is done you can just move on.
The way it was was great. You attack a base and once you get the hack as long as there were no baddies around you could send most of your force to the next assault or to defend another base, leave a couple of people behind to guard the hack and make sure everything goes through ok, then have them catch up in a vehicle once the base goes blue (or red or purple...doesn't sounds as cool though).
