Enemy tagging? No score bonus?

Post » Fri Mar 27, 2009 8:37 pm

I've moved over to Crysis from Battlefield: Bad Company 2, and was very surprised to see a similar enemy tagging feature.

I think it's a nice touch, but unless I'm mistaken you don't gain any points from it if a team mate gets a kill?
If someone could clarify this I'd appreciate it, because to be honest I'll stop using it if I don't benefit from it.

Cheers people.

im not 100% sure if I understood the question but I'll try anyway.

From my understanding you get 50+ if you kill a enemy who is low on hp, you get 100+ if you kill a enemy from full hp to death and you get 150+ for a headshot.

I guess your talking about assists and it works pretty much the same, if you and your team mate shoot the same guy who got full hp you get 40+ and then you simply get lower depending on the HP of the enemy down to nothing.

I might be completly wrong and as I said im not completly sure if I understood your question so if this answers your question then yay, if not then booo!

do you mean tagging by visor? you get assist and 20 points if ally killed tagged enemy, but tagging lasts after some time, and... well... no way you can be in the top, even if you tag all enemies, bonus is too low

Cheers for the replies lads.
But yeah i was talking about gaining score from visor tagging. Its a shame the score is so low, as it just doesn't warrant doing it at all.

Shame really, works well on battlefield as you simply press back to tag an enemy, I know its a totally different game and that.

I hope they tweak the tagging somewhat, i'm all for anything that increases teamwork, but not being able to shoot with your visor activated just makes it a waste of time.

Tagging in this game serves more of a purpose to make it easier for you to snipe. Tag a few people and go at it.
Tagging people during combat is retarded and would just get you killed.

I love that on Battlefield, one of the best features to be added to an FPS in a long time..

I'd love to see it implemented better on Crysis, using the Visor is awkward and slow in such a fast paced game, it needs to be a simple tag like the BF games.
