RR46Benji 41 Report post Posted October 1, 2022 hey, i just played a game of heli pve in the premium usa apache, scored 3300 on the mission board, won the game the works. thing is for a game like that i consistently get around 15-20k rp towards the ah1z in which case this is fine, no issue. difference this game is that i have used all my boosters and went into the match with 1000% rp boost clocked up and maybe a little over 500% sl boost. now look at the pay out, the sl seams fine but what the hell happened to my rp boost. just over 20k rp and the boosters have been consumed! i was hoping for nearly 100k that game, but jesus over 50k at least. if i pulled 20k for example with a 1000% booster on, that means my base rp i took from the match without the booster was 2000 rp. and thats with a premium heli and premium account on a resault that would net me the same without any boost! what the hell is going on! is this actually correct!? if it is then what a waste... honestly lost for words and disappointed with that another thing to add because im guessing peoples first thought would be that the booster ran out, this was a 43 min game. boosters are active for 30 mins of a game before it is classed as rolling over to match 2, meaning i had +1000% for 60% of the match that i played at least!

Dodo_Dud 5,074 Report post Posted October 1, 2022 (edited) Easy: Match lasts for over 30 minutes, booster expires. Biggest RP payment is usually your final reward. You have no more booster. You get no boost. (you posted the wrong screen to catch this) Solution: Use only boosters with several charges in this mode, so you can cover 60 or 90 minutes.

Several charges? Can you activate it while in battle? How does it work exactly? Edited October 1, 2022 by theSoon Share this post Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...

Boosters that last for more than 1 match will give you 30 minutes of boost for each match it has on it, so a booster that has 4 matches on it will last for 2 hours of EC game time before the boost ends 1 1 Share this post Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...

esapekkis 2,659 Report post Posted October 1, 2022 (edited) There is also another thing to consider with the big boosters: they work only for the first 30 minutes of the match and not from the the point you join the game. And since you can late join Heli PvE you can partially or even completely waste the booster when join match which has been going on for longer than 30 minutes. So if you are planning to use the big boosters in Heli PvE make sure you dissable the "joing games in progress" option. disclaimer: or at least this is how they work in other long lasting modes with ability to join late. I've never played Heli PvE myself Edited October 1, 2022 by esapekkis Share this post Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...

llSolitairell@psn 5,730 Report post Posted October 6, 2022 (edited) Dodo is correct, tested myself with a 10% booster and got a bonus so if you want big RP booster to count you have to speedrun it in less than 30 minutes Edited October 6, 2022 by llSolitairell@psn Share this post Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...
Dodo_Dud 5,074 Report post Posted October 6, 2022 (edited) In the ingame chat, one player told me that 30 min boosters work IF you quit the match before they lapse (even for final benefits). I have NOT tested this, but would be interested to know if it is true. Edited October 6, 2022 by Dodo_Dud Share this post Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...
_chaotic 140 Report post Posted November 21, 2022 (edited) Maybe they should actually put this in the description of the boosters itself. "Only for PVP" "No PVE" or something like that. To make things more clear. Because the Bug Report Section is overflodded with "Booster not working correctly for Heli PVE" reports. This is making thinking people into this must be a bug. Or they maybe should change it so that it only gives the bonus of 30 minutes in game for that period of time and after that it simply turns off and rest activity does not get included in RP.
