XP Cap and Issues I have with it
-
I just hit XP cap but how can you have a cap and have no method to check how deep into the cap you are and no hard time when it resets at least in writing. Also we are just coming off a 2x XP thing and I will admit I went hard last 12 / 24 hours but NOT having the cap reset once the XP event was over hurts players that did last minute ( last day ) xp rushes.
Could a SDS rep please respond to this and explain to me how this is even right and hate to use this word but FAIR. It's bad enough we spend 60 to 100 plus depending on the version of the game but then to prevent us from playing is garbage. I mean heck you use the term "Grind to 99 " but then when we do we can punished for it does that make any sense ?
If you going to have the cap then YOU must give us a method for us to know where we are on the cap. Also something in game and / or this forum where we are told the XP cap on normal days and when the XP event is going on and WHEN it resets daily.
SDS ball is in your court and awaiting your respose.
( I have to wait 8h ish before I can earn XP and that is garbage )

Between this and your complaint about Griffey; maybe a 'time out' is warranted.
If you're getting this upset over a game; than maybe the game isn't for you.
Also, the XP cap is around 60K. While I agree that any XP earned during Double XP time shouldn't count ones that's over; we've had an XP cap for at least two years. People should be aware of it.

I will admit my Jr thing was more emotion then merit but this XP cap thing is a legit complaint / issue . Also you said players should be aware of it well 1st stream of the year the one where they told us about set 1 and such I mentioned it in twitch stream and a good amount of players were like what are you talking about so no everyone might not be aware of it.
Also do not let my rant about JR distract from the fact this XP cap thing might be wrong and needs to be adjusted and such.
I am sorry sometimes my passion or whatever you want to call it comes out wrong and will try and reign it in a little but no promises -- LOL

I just figured out that midnight seems to be the reset ( btw I am PST ) now if this is the case then they did not bump up the cap for the last half day of the XP event cause I grinded out maybe 45 to 55k then after the XP bump ended did like 4 or 5 conquest games might be off by a game but was only getting 1.2 to 1.6k ish per game so looks like I hit the 60k cap not the boost one counting for the event.
Now SDS you really do have some explaining to do and I want a SDS rep to explain why it was only a 60k cap when Bonus XP was in effect for half a day ish so even if you pro rate it then the cap should have raised to 90k and I know for a FACT I did not do that in raw XP.

Mine seems to reset at around 7 am. I'm east coast.

I was just guessing cause mine is ending around midnight my time give or take and that is the issue the reset time should be universal to avoid these type of issues. The most logical timing would be to do would have it be 11 am maybe Noon PST around the time new content is released that would make it easier to keep track of and such.

I am glad I will never experience this XP cap thing. It is still a myth to me. I have some nights I play 5 or 6 hours and never seen this.
-
This is the 1st time I have hit it for awhile cannot remember the last time I hit it want to say early last year in Show22 but super rare for me cause usually my goal when working programs is to average 20 ish K a day and anything more is a bonus only on XP bonus events do I tend to push harder.
-
I'm under the impression that the CAP reset is 24 hrs after you hit it. But I could be wrong.

I am going to say it again this is really the issue it's not with the cap it's that there is no place it's written but more of a known by most vet players but no guidelines on how it works and such. I realize they started this in 21' cause there were some nasty exploits and people were getting XP and getting through the program path in a handful of days. I wish the cap was not there or maybe modified like the 1st 14 days of a program maybe a little longer then have cap of 60k like it is then on 15th day and til end make it 100k and let players play how they like within those guidelines.
This will be my last post on this topic cause getting repetitive but I really wish someone at SDS would clarify the rules and such and pin them someplace so there is no confusion on this topic. It all comes down to open communication and SDS no matter how much you like this game they can sometimes lack this unless it's something really game breaking. --- thanks for everyone's time and have fun in game

No, it's a set time. Gave me 4 hours after hitting it last night.
