The "ten times more epoints" for capturing them alive made me laugh.
It sounds like a hot fix.
It sounds fucked up when I think about it, but we're at the point where we need fucked up to hold on
Modifying people's psychology has always been a part of war IMO. Whether it's speeches, giving your soldiers meth, or gamification, it's generally all seen as fair game.
It does make a bit of macabre logic. Capturing them takes a hell of a lot longer than just blowing them up. It also can take several drones.
Say a drone team on their most effective day is eliminating 3-5 Russians. Spending a few hours to escort one across the front line for capture needs to be incentivized heavily.
