[quote]Ok so I just played a match of control where we had quite a few more kills and captures than the other team yet we lost? How does that even work? How can we even expect to win if it’s RNG Bungie? Us - 69 kills 13 caps, only 57 points? Them- 51 kills 9 caps, 71 points?![/quote] I agree!! Totally broken, what's the point of capturing flags if you can't win? Too many games I've had like that, you can even triple cap and lose!

It depends on when the kills were. I think each kill qualifies as a point modified by the number of zones you control. If you control zero zones, your kills count for nothing. If you control 1 zone, each kill counts for 1. If you control 3 zones, each kill is 3 points. So it's not just how many points you capture, it's how long you hold them and how many kills you get while their held. Even a brief period where the other team has all 3 points can completely change the direction of the game, even if they don't get the most kills, or the most captures, that's only part of the game. It also means that if you have zero zones you should focus your team on taking one of them back, not engaging the enemy, because any kills you get during that time don't actually matter. ... In my own case I usually run capture maps either clockwise or counter clockwise depending on the enemy movement because the team fire paradigm means they seldom leave one person to guard capture point. Which means one person can easily run counter to the other team and capture an abandoned point while the other team is capturing another...The main trick is to make sure you always have as many points controlled as possible.
