And gift the opposing team a great bunch of points/cBills? No, I'll take the hike back. Especially since the 'sell mech' option was included.
I agree with you. But when you look at the scoreboards, it's clear a lot of high-scoring players are choosing to go down with the ship. Which is understandable I guess given the current scoring/incentive systems.
Yes, quite a bit of people chose that way... fine with me if they are the opposing team

I guess the SA game mode is to blame.... Since there are no clear objectives (beside killing/destroying), you don't really see any goals, beside getting the points to achieve a higher rank to get better assets to play with.
That pushes the main goal -getting more points than the opposing team- far out of the mind of many players.
