X "Defending/Attacking" Objective should count towards the objective weekly.

Defending the objective is just as important as attacking so it's a shame you don't get rewarded for it, especially when you have these weeklies that require 50 objectives. Also when you attack an objective and do the majority of the work but die at the last second, you dont get the capture point so you don't get the progress

In addition, I think in games like battlefield, you used to be rewarded for actively protecting a flag that was being attacked. They should add a counter for how long you're in a contested flag that will tick and after a certain amount of points, it can contribute towards a single completed objective.

Makes it hard to really want to help the team when I need to complete 50 objectives, I get no reward for helping hold an objective, and the only way I'll get my reward is by running to a completely different objective and getting there right before it's captured

I think that would just be abused by people sitting in areas not really doing anything and just building up score. While it's helpful to have people contest, getting kills is a less abusable style imo

I mean from my experience, people camp regardless. Especially when they’re trying to rack up kills (which still counts as attacking/defending) or if they’re trying to get their team to spawn in.

While I see your point, I feel like the opportunity for people to abuse it for XP at most, won’t really outweigh the improvement on the flow of objective-based gameplay

im on kekos side here that it shouldnt be based on contest time but contest kills/assist, its puts the challenge in the challenge
