When the counter of the enemy team drops to 0 the game ends and is REALLY frustrating. Can it be removed?

If you reach 0 points, something went horribly wrong. It's really difficult to lose all your points. That's what, 5 losses with no kills and nocaps on the board?

I like just not letting it get down to 0 in the first place.

I like this mechanic. It would suck if I am in a game that has 0 points 5 minutes in and the game isn't over. It means my team had a catastrophic level of incompetence and I just want to move on to the next game.

If your team is that worthless, then you deserve to lose and lose bad! If your battleships refuse to battle and only run away like utter cowards than you deserve to lose. If your destroyers only want to stealth torp at range and never cap than you deserve to lose. If your cruisers refuse to help the destroyers move in and cap then you deserve to lose.

I think he means "hey, we were having fun clubbing the enemy seals, I don't want the seal clubbing to end so suddenly, there's more damage I can farm".

If a team dropped to a point where they reached 0 points, they have already lost most of their team without doing much sinking (if any) themselves. It's basically a mercy rule.

I wasn't talking about if my team drops to 0, is frustrating because you cannot finish the other team :trollface:

Well then I am sorry to insinuate that your team was that bad.

The game ending at 0 points for a team I consider to be a mercy.

If the game ends you cannot continue to do damage or get kills. Basically your team hinders you preventing to continue the fight.

In the words of a wise man. Learn to know when you've already lost. (someone famous said that somewhere... right?)

 

99% of the time if the situation is that bad no one is going to be enjoying sitting there waiting for their ship back. "You are not the center of the world" applies here I do believe.

There is a lot you can do to prevent this though.  I always fight for 2 caps in 3 or 4 cap domination, but never try to cap the last cap.  Even a truly incompetent enemy will generally figure out ... THERE IS A FREE CAP MAYBE I'LL GO HIDE THERE AND GET SOME XP WHILE I'M AT IT.  Once they got the cap points rolling then its hard to get them to zero unless you absolutely steamroll them.  Same thing applies in standard battle.  Don't sit on their cap unless its necessary to win.  If you are destroying them this is not necessary.

 

Also if you see the points getting low, you can shoot at ships that are not likely to sink soon.  Generally this allows you to farm more damage while giving their cap time to catch up with the lost points.

The match had devolved past being an embarrassment.  I say end it.

I'll take a quick confirmed win over damage padding.
