Just played Octopus against 1 human opponent. He/she left just before the game ended and I was awarded a paltry 25 points which is ridiculous! So if say, one plays against 2 humans, whom, after realising that they cannot win leave before the game ends, I get the equivalent points for playing bots? Even if the game has gone on for some time and they still have troops and towers on the island, sodding ridiculous!

This is plain stupid as players will leave before a game ends knowing full well that the victor will get next to no points. Please change it! Also it's hardly going to deter friends from handing each other points by letting one side win as all they have to do is leave the game running until it finishes.

Already there should be more points handed out for multiplayer, if there is no scoring system, what is the point of trying to prevent boosting Maybe 200 points per opponent and 100 for computers

i like that 200 points per person YOU killed and 100 per every computer YOU killed

Played chain reaction for the first time today, 1 human player (who left half-way through) and 4 bots. I won and got 62 points. 62 points against 5 opponents...

Isn't it 25 points per bot and 100 for a human player? That's 200 points.

Just played Chain Reaction with 2 other human players. 1 left early, while the other played up until 10 minutes before the game ended.

I received a mere 125 points for winning after playing for 2 hours.

Just beat 4 other players in Chain Reaction and received:

125 points!

3 left just before they were defeated (and after playing for some time). That was worth an hour of my life... Could you please reiterate how this is calculated. Were the points reduced because the players left? If so, this is ridiculous considering they played the majority of the game and only left when they were close to defeat.

I think, on that map, you get 500 points if ALL other players are humans, but only 125 if there is 1 or more computer players, so you can play against 4 humans and 1 computer and it's the same amount of points as playing against 5 computer players. Full points are only available if NO computer players are involved. Also points reduce by half if playing the same map again within 1 hour so you might end up only getting 125 points for beating 5 humans on Chain Reaction if you've already played a couple of games on that map recently

That is correct.

if there are any computer players in a game, points are divided by 4.

For each time you have played the same island withing the last hour, points are divided by 2.

That's ridiculous. Why should one computer player in Chain Reaction reduce the points so much? It should be proportional.

listen, I NEED POINTS, and well, it is just about impossible to get points after you have done all of the quests, and when nobody wants to play on 1 map and everyone wants to play on 1 single map AAAAAAAALLLLLLLLLLLLLLLLLLLLLLL DAY so if you play with them the points are divided by 2 or with a bot and within the same hour the points will be divided by 8 AND, alot of computer players are WAY better than alot of humans So why charge less? And to start it off, 100 points per opponent? thats low, unless you lower the prices on points, too. + the price of oddies being sold are like 350 points per oddie, now thats pitiful. PS-when will natives, the new lurblaster move, or GAMBLING ON MULTIPLAYER come out???

lol fudge on crack

I think he found the coffee.

or maybe the cookie jar 0_0

just bumping this topic coz a lot of new players don't understand how the multiplayer points system works

I dont understand, and i dont even need to understand because every time i play Chain Reaction i get beaten by Dak or somebody else...
I am not good at Chain Reaction...
