we held the map, the timer goes 0:00 so attacking team cant cap, but a lone sniper is all defense team got and he even capped a territory behind our line.

eventually the game pop up and says you have being defeated.

Defense wins win the timer reaches 0.  If you had started the 3 minute timer prior to the game timer reaching 0, you would have won.

[Avalanche]

the point is, as the defense team, i just keep a sniper in corner, they cant kill me, so the timer will run out and eventually win.
at the 0:00 time, i had more territory than him, and popcap is ticking down on him.

also at the 0:00 time, i cannot cap anymore territory, but the defense team can still cap

[DerangedGerman]

If he only has 1 sniper, then you should be able to force the 3:00 countdown.

[Avalanche]

just god damn watch the replay

[fldash]

Believe me, I know how the system works.  If you had even started the capture timer at 0:01 on the timer (one second left), you would have won the game...

[Avalanche]

i am captureing at 0:01, and i had more territory than him at 0:01, the middle cp is blue.

sure i dont have enough territory to initiate "if you dont cap more territory you lose" message for the defense team or the 3min count down, but i held more territory, and a lone sniper is all they got.

lone sniper should not stop 2 platoons and win the game

No 3 minute timer, doesn't matter how much you've got

You're right, it shouldn't have stopped you.  Capture territory.

[Avalanche]

why do defense team gets a 3 minute timer to save their ass, while attack team does not get a 3 minute timer says "if you dont cap more territory, you lose?"

you could start the warning message at 57minute, for attacking team.


also we had a mortar, 2 at guns which is not cloaked sitting in 1 territory and it got capped by 1 rifleman squad, why?

You're right, it shouldn't have stopped you.  Capture territory.

i was capturing territory, i had more territory, and the 0:00 timer kicks in, i lost ability to cap, but defense team can still cap

[fldash]

It's okay to be frustrated about the dynamic.  I understand.  You can still capture territory up until the 0:00 mark OR you capture enough territory to start the 3:00 minute timer for them (because they don't hold enough territory).  If they only had out a sniper, how did you not capture enough territory to make the 3:00 minute timer start?

[AmPM]

They won. I beat a team earlier who was defending by forcing the 3 minute timer at 2 minutes. We won. Game timer ticks down to 0, 3 minute timer keeps going, we win.

You failed to take territory fast enough to force a timer, by your own admission. Hence you failed to win the game. The game is not about killing the enemy army, its about forcing the win condition any way you can.

[Avalanche]

ok, they have 2 mg in both side of rtc, so i cant cap, so i have to wait till my popcap grow back to call in flamenwerfer. as soon as my flamenwerfer hit the field and killed the mg, i was capping. with 2 pio squad and a kch.

[Avalanche]

ok, but how can a rifle cap a territory with a mortar team sitting on it, while we got 2 grens and 1 kch on 1 territory with 1 man mg and not capping?
