Raise the flag 0.50xp when I have xp2.00 ugh! Fix pls

Can anyone explain this ?? How come in regular world I could have a xp2.00 and on all other game modes play xp2.00 I do the quest every day so I can maintain this status but when I play "Raise the flag" I drop to xp0.50 which isn't nothing can't never level up with that?? Look at my example pics and pls telling me is this happening to you. I chatted with EA on the issue and couldn't get a answer!!! I really enjoyed playing this game and all the modes and I like "raise the flag" on solo and co-op but is not worth plane at that XP

    Don't quote me but I think its meant to be that way. Also happens in a couple of solo game modes. I think it is so people won't abuse these game modes to level up quicker.

  • It's there basically to prevent players from only doing the flag of power minigame to farm XP and coins. I think in the beta it stayed on whatever XP multiplier you had but they nerfed it. the amount of coins you get from the flag is also nerfed to where normal coins only give you +2 and diamonds award up to 63 i think.

    I can see why they nerfed it for those reasons but i think they nerfed it too much because it's pretty pointless to do since you get barely any XP or coins out of it now. I think it should at least always stay at x1 XP and raise up the amount of coins you get from it

    Edit: they've actually raised the amount of coins you get back to their regular amounts so in that regard at least you'll get a decent amount of coins from doing flag of power again

    Have to agree with the original post that this should be the same level as your current XP multiplier. I can go to any of the other local game modes have 2x XP so why can't I do it for this mode. Plus why are local players being punished? Especially for the people that are playing splitscreen and can't go online?

    It's different in the sense raising the flag has virtually no load time, you cannon ball to the flag, you raise the flag in about 8 seconds you get swarmed w/easy to kill plants or zombies. The 1st wave is cake and you get coins when you're done...having a 2x XP modifier for that is just too easy. The first wave could essentially have 1 hp like custom options which low health reduces the xp modifier as well. 1st plant/zombie wave done, collect coins...repeat. Too easy for games now that encourage grinding.

    When I need to bang out some kill missions quickly and raising the flag tends to be the best and quickest option.

    It's not a flat x0.50 multiplier, it's one quarter of whatever your current multiplier is.  That is, if your XP multiplier was x1.00, your flag of power multiplier would be x0.25, then x0.31 for x1.25, x0.37 for x1.50, and so on.  So your multiplier still has an effect, but Flag of Power is not meant to be an all-day XP farm fest so you can boost and give other players the false impression that you might be somebody.  Play some multiplayer.
