I've read a lot about this topic, and many people want you not to cap so they can get the last several kills. The misconception about people getting more xp/credits if all enemies were killed vs capping the flag is resolved. Here's what Overlord, WoT Developer said about this.


Basically the amount of experience you get for base capture equals the amount of experience for destroying all enemy vehicles. However much depends on what enemy vehicles are to be destroyed. You won't get much for annihilating poor MS-1.


For the winning team in general the amount of credits stays the same as well. Only those players who directly damaged/destroyed the enemy vehicles (that are left) will get more credits/xp. But not the team.

I say cap! my team got greedy and tried to take out all the tanks. Four people got killed by an IS-4, leaving me in my tiger to take him out. They were bitching because I was running, when if they had just capped we would have won....we lost.


CAP!

I like to Cap as well, unless I'm the predator chasing the last prey (who's smaller than me). =)

I've seen the whole, "Kill the last guy." The last guy was a Maus who proceeded to just trash the last 7 tanks on our team. If I cant completely dominate the last guy, I'll go cap. If it is a big arty left, I'll probably go hunt him down out of spite. If no has a clue where the last guy is, I'll go cap.

I'd rather have my tank ready for the next fight quicker then hunting 5+mins for some pud. If the guys on my team REALLY want the last guy dead then they know how much time they have left.

Now that I know there isn't an XP bonus, cap all the way!
