    In order to earn credits in a match, you have to have a predetermined entry-fee amount of energy at the time the match starts. The match uses up only as much energy as the size of the entry fee.

    Lets say you have 100 energy, and each match costs 25 energy to earn credits in. That means you can play 4 matches for credits. After the fourth, you can still join games, but since you can't pay the entry fee, you earn no credits. Even if you 90 minute recharge period goes off in the middle of a match, you earn no credits, because you couldn't pay the energy fee at the start of the match.

    Ahh, I see. That is confusing, actually.

    I think since the voice over said "great combat performance", it was implying that the guy who died didn't perform well, so didn't get as much energy as the other guy.

    Ahh, well I can't help you there, sorry. I don't think EA ever announced when the game was submitted, but it was presumably submitted around 2 weeks ago.

    Do you have any evidence at all to back that up, or are you just stating something you invented in your head as a fact?

    No, practice costs nothing and earns nothing.

    You mean credits.

    I see now, although it would be nice to have a small 5 credit bonus if you died just so you can get something out of it. "Oh look I died, crud. Well at least I got 5 credits out of it."

    People are just saying that because they're impatient to see Eliminate released. When they see another big-name game released, they ask themselves why it wasn't Eliminate, and they jump to wild conspiracy-theory conclusions.

    Again, nobody ever comments when some tiny budget independent game gets approved in 3 days, but if a big name game gets approved faster than normal, suddenly everyone is reading a bunch of things that aren't there.

    Yes, I do mean credits, good catch ;)

    You get a certain amount of credits just for showing up in a match, even if you just show up and get killed over and over again

    Not sure why you would want to be afk because not only will your skill level decrease, you would've gotten more credits in that fight if you killed people.
