Has anyone notice the Mystery Victories and Defeats?

[Eaglenotego]

Has anyone else experienced this?....

 

"OUR TEAM HAS TAKEN THE LEAD"   

(one minute later.....5 minutes in to the battle......4 or 5 ships sunk on both sides.....points nowhere near the amount need to cap)

 

"Defeat!"

or

"Victory!"

 

or is it just me?

As of the last patch if one team holds both cap points the game ends instantly.

I think the message itself is erroneous.  When I hear that message, I look at the score (in a points game) & most times it's incorrect.

"OUR TEAM HAS TAKEN THE LEAD"  

 

This line reads out loud to the team when said team holds the majority of bases in a domination match. It has nothing to do with how close a victory or defeat is. The message can be heard multiple times per match if each team is doing everything in their power to hold more cap points over the enemy.

 

The phrase "Our victory is near" or "The enemy team is about to win" only plays when one side reaches 800 points out of 1000. This can also be heard multiple times per match as the sinking of capital ships can sway the scores by a hundred points or so.

It's pretty well established that the in-game announcer hits the rum stockpiles of all participating ships before a battle. I constantly get incorrect callouts, lead changes, etc. However, the game instantly ending is a new thing and not at all out of working order. If it's two-cap domination (A and B points, no more, no less), then one team capping the other point they don't control results in an instant 1000 point gain, resulting in a win.

Maybe it would help if the team that was about to lose got a message on screen that said:

"Gosh maybe we should have covered that DD"

Think you need to find the patch notes.

yea they made dd's more relevant and defending the home base also relevant.

I will say the couple times I have been in a game where our team had no D and enemy capped out a win fairly fast.... I had the voice over for the "enemy is about to win" a whole 1 second before it kicks to end screen.
