its a good idea

you will know when that proto is down for good
no need to double tap after the kill

You already know from the headshot sound

It's like CoD! Everyone loves CoD.......right?

.............right?

Not really it got boring after MW3 I'm a battlefield and Dust Boy

we head shot whores approve of the 60+ wp. Nice to see CCP pushing for skillful gameplay unlike call of duty noob spray and pray.

Yeah, you're suppose to kill the enemy. You're not required to get a headshot.

Dude, different people have different requirements. As a sniper you often need a head shot if you want to bring someone down relatively quickly.

Doing that can make the difference between helping your team defend/take an objective or not.

You must be trolling because that is a lame ass excuse for whining about the headshot thing.

By that logic, I should get 10+ for bleeding some out, but we don't/won't.

I would like that. I always pump a few rounds into any corpse i find. Dont want some medic reviving people after i go through an area.

If he's dead, then he's dead. It should not matter how he died.

I wouldn't mind either. Make the 10+ for bleedouts and not necessarily headshots. I'm willing to compromise.

By that logic, being put down but still bleeding out shouldnt count as a kill till i have completely bled out and cant be revived, you can still get your points, but it shouldnt count against my K/D ratio.

I agree that it doesn't really make sense, but I think it's a good thing, just to give slayers a chance for a little extra WP. Logis already get far more WPs than frontline roles, with the scanner points they'll be getting even more. If there wasn't a buff to WPs for kills, heavies in particular (who can't even use a scanner) but also assaults would be getting further and further behind. I think it should be 60 WP for a kill, but if we can't have that then 60 for a headshot is better than nothing.

I don't notice problems like this and I use assault. Given, it might be because I normally get between first to fourth place in pub matches.

I'm a HMG heavy, so I have even fewer sources of WPs than an assault - nothing except kills, assists, and hacks. I don't do badly but I'm not first all that often. I played for a couple of hours before downtime today, had plenty of good games but think I only came first once (went 34-2 that game). I think a logi of a similar ability level would be top more often, though I realize that's hard to quantify. Anyway, I'm not saying logis get too much WP, just that I'm glad slayers are getting their own WP boost in 1.5.

I only rarely use the militia heavy with militia forge gun, so I don't have a clear understanding of how little WP the heavies get. I can understand that you feel you're not getting enough WP because of how slow you are in moving around and hacking.

I've edited the OP.

with the scanner points they'll be getting even more.
