points multiplier when reaching #kills |
|
Just an idea: How about giving players an incrementing points multiplier when they reach dominating, killingspree etc. I think it should be rewarded when a player makes many kills without dying. The multipliers should be small, like 1.1, 1.2 etc. If you don't want to stimulate this behaviour, you could also reward the killer of the dominating player.

I think this would encourage the points whores to chase lesser skilled players even more.

and use the charger a lot more. a different way: it should be more so that the higher you go up with dominating etc. the lesser points you get, 0.9, 0.8...
of course this is all a waste of time as the point system is fine as it is now.

The only point mod that i could think of which would stop occasional point whores.
After 2 days you loose 100 points per day not played on the servers. That way the ones who build up towards the top spot would have to keep playing regualy to keep there
That was made up as i read the post so please don't flame it points system is fine as it is

This is actually under project but not that way and not scheduled to be released for now, there will be a post when it will be released explaining how it is working.

I can say with 100% certainty that no matter what points system is used I will devote 0.5% attention to it. Don't get me wrong, the system adds a bit of interest to those who enjoy it and that's cool.
But for me it just isn't important. Unless....
A points system is developed for intentionally shooting a ball off the underside of a walkway hitting a player on a ramp. Or for shooting an xbow into someone bunnyhopping on the other side of the map..etc etc But that's impossible.
Such things rock my little world.
The only points system I want is on the forum... but that's my addiction.

are you saying breen's a complete noob
nah the points system, well, just my opinion I'd rather have it just deleted altogether. it makes me nervous more than it does me good. You'll never find a system that's perfect. You can say whatever you want, I still think the fact that you can lose 100 points for dying once (take, you have 10.000 points, you can lose a percent of your points per kill) and get only like 2 if you kill the person that just took the 100 points in the same way, just isn't right.
at least this ranking system is better than Kc's, where playing a lot means best player (not necessarily true imho.)

I would be never that harsh to Breenie. His statement was that "every complete noob" could easy reach 14k+ points at server I. His actual 8.4 k points show clearly that he cant be such a noob then because hes slightly away from this noobish 14k.

I agree with some parts, the system in which noobs are rewarded more for killing experienced players is ok with me, but the differences are to big. Its like you get punished for playing with new players, even if you handle them with care. I need to kill 50 newbies in order to justify a death, i mean, come on. Then there is the amount of points per weapon. There should be a limit on the number of points given for smg/combine rifle kills.

It makes NO difference if a 'noob' (who could very well be an excellent player who hasn't visited before) gets 1 point or a 100 points off high ranking players because all high ranking players suffer equally - making no real difference to ranking order.

Bouncing between 17 and 21k points isnt something unusual. Just happend to me to loose this 4k points in only 2 or 3 days. Not a drama at all - ill be back some other day.
Even the top players have bad days and loose lots of points in no time.
Nearly the comple top 50 can get mixed up and turned around within a few rounds. Even someone exerienced a badly point loss period - it only means he will get even better chances for a comeback.
With lower point multiplicators you would only slow down the whole process but not stop it. In addition you would still loose full 100 points for catching a heater with your face as soon its thrown by a player with far lower points then you. :p
Exactly this is what holds the system flexible and interesting. With being more static it would just become boring. Make it your personal task to reach & hold your points as good as possible. Holding seems to be the harder part sometimes.
Some days you loose - some days the others win.

the point system is awesome! it makes killing people with stick even scarier. Once we had a stick fight on Xix and I got 12K in 50 hours thanx to a kpd of 2 rofl! But yeah points are good,so that stunstick is more effective muahahah
ok i am not coherent at all.
