Confusing Achievement terminology
« on: March 20, 2013, 01:38:47 pm »
When reading the achieves menu, what exactly entails how you "defend a point"? Is it by blocking a cap, or killing a ship in an active cap zone?

I believe it is two things. One is taking a point from the enemy. Another is halting the capture of a point you already own.

Surely taking a held point is capturing it?

I thought it was defeating an enemy who contests the point, ie. Red captures the point, Blue contests the point, Red beats Blue..

This is what you'd think it is but after trying many times I can assure you it's not. As far as I can tell I think it's capturing a point controlled by the enemy. It's weird.

I think we need some Clara-fication on this issue.. it could be like the ram achievements, where the description and the mechanic got out of synch.
