5K base cap

Javenn · 2003-09-17, 04:40 PM

all the base caps i' ve ever been in are just like 1-3k how the hell do you get a 5K base cap?

MilitantB0B · 2003-09-17, 04:43 PM

The only times I have ever gotten 5k is when it was my outfit taking a base deep in enemy terriory (through NTU drainage). Lotsa enemys, and if you are orginized, you cna hold them off while you get the hack.

Well since your sig says your BR 4 with 16 kills, chances are you haven't seen any of the 5ks yet. You could have another character that is a higher BR though, becuase I'm just gusseing that is your highest level character. In the beginning when PS first lauched in May the population was huge and I saw a ton of 5k hacks. Also depends on what server you play on. Werner and emerald have the most chances for 5k hacks, johari has the least.

heres what are server has a moderete amount of people, if u want 2 find a 5k cap, try going 2 a nc or vs locked cont and youll get about 4 k if they notice u. or u can do it the easy way. follow the zerg and tell the zerg commander a enmy empire cr5's name and send him a tell 2 organize a huge attack.

What it prolly was, was that they didnt have too many enemys, and you guys were killing the same guys over and over, mustov been a battle that as like, 2 squads against 2 squads, or something like that

They lowered the max cap exp to 3k, and messed around with the exp system a bit (not too much, but a little), so thats why there are no more 5k caps.

Proof, or it didn't happen...

I get 5k caps all the time

Flammey · 2003-09-17, 11:04 PM

I was in a 2 hour long war for a base in which I got all of 28 experiance. And I have gotten 5000 once. I was solo in my lightning. I didn't do a damn thing, just sat outside the door with my "Treaded Death" and when the hack went through, 5K was what I got. I've gotten lots of 4.6K hacks. Uh, According to SOE only certain bases give certain experiance caps. I believe Tech plants give the greatest. I'm not sure. There's a list on the main PSU site. It might be wrong though. There are a few things that are.
