It's being investigated.

It's just a display issue though, the complexes are actually being captured properly. So stay in range and wait for 10-20 minutes (depending on complex size) and it should be taken as normal.

However; if you're down on the warp-in defending and your corpmate on the button closes the plex, you don't get any LP. Do you have to be up in range of the button?

I havnt been on yet to look, but this sounds like a 'graphics timer bug' that was around sometime last year and was fixed at some point.

If so there is an easy workaround...........

1) add/remove Complex Capture Point from Overview.

and/or

2) change/switch overview tabs.

In the past this made timer show correctly.

I hope this is not the case, really a bad idea.

Its seems, the the only way to see the timer is:

You start capturing the plex.

someone already capturing, you warp-out warp-in, and if he is still caputring you can see the timer
