Freyland Posted June 17, 2000 Share Posted June 17, 2000 FOW, definitely. This falls under the same (way old) discussion about victory flags. To you, a particular flag may not have any enemy near it, so the computer tells you it is yours. However, your buddy has a whole platoon hiding in the trees nearby, so he sees the flag as contested. Each perspective will give you a different victory total. Also, I suspect your ignorance (FOW) of the accurate number of casualties is playing a part, but I am not a beta-tester (unfortunately), so I cannot confirm this. Hope this helps.

Echo Posted June 17, 2000 Share Posted June 17, 2000 Final score 46-54 (Dont go romping in the woods with Sniper) ------------------ As I walk through the Valley of Death, I will fear nothing, for I am the meanest mother*#*#** in the valley.

Moon Posted June 17, 2000 Share Posted June 17, 2000 Freyland is right. The score you see is what you THINK it is, based on what you see of the battlefield. If you have a victory flag which - unknown to you - is in the possession of the enemy, your score will be different than what the other player sees.
