Go back to CoD. This is a team game, not "EHHRRGH MURRHH GUUURRRD, luk how much I gnk! I am t3h bestest!" The last time I played CoD was like 6 years ago. I really hate when people use this reference as if it caries any weight. I've been playing dust since open beta. It's a team game that doesn't reward being a slayer. Glad to see so many people are willing to discuss this in a mature way (glad to hear you are enjoying your night at least). Are the points I suggest really that game breaking? No. You probably just want to keep your easy ISK making from your rep tool. Its ok I understand.
Now that I'm sober and incredibly hung over, I honestly couldn't care less if they introduced kill streak bonuses. You say slayers should be rewarded for being slayers, how would you propose scouts are rewarded for being scouts? As mentioned by yourself, Logis get their rewards.
Speaking of which, rep tool easy WP yes. Easy ISK no. Logis are prime targets in a battle and since I do more than leash a heavy all match, with minimal/no tank, It's incredibly easy for me to go ISK negative. I earn my WP by doing my job and keeping the team going, even if I have to die doing so. |

My phone sucks and it's too awkward to edit quotes, don't want a pyramid starting.
I think the main reason I make little profit (for the most part) when I Logi, is because I absolutely love getting in the thick of it. I'll use myself as cannon fodder while I rep/res someone. Or suicide run into a group of reds to get a rep-hive down for a heavy. Different styles of play I guess.
Anyway. I suppose as you say, scouts are rewarded by (from?) the ability to hack more than other suits while being effective slayers. Especially with their unsurpassed ability to use REs as grenades (a tactic I have no issue with). Heavies are pure slayer and can already get hefty WP. Nothing an assault couldn't achieve, if they were in a good state.
As for the streak itself, it would be nice to see more even numbers on the scoreboard. Rarely do I see the more than the top 4/5 places with more than 1000WP. Not only would it encourage slayer builds it would make people happy to do so. Knowing they don't have to farm WP to keep up with the trend, instead placing high for their contribution and reaping rewards.
Numbers would be up for discussion, but I don't really play slayer much anymore so couldn't comment. |

3 kills in a row = 10 WP
5 kills in a row = 50 WP
10 kills in a row = 200 WP
20 kills in a row = 500 WP
Edit: Orbital kills do not count towards killstreaks.
Just throwing numbers out there. Thoughts? If you want this then remove Orbital its OP
Holy ****! So now orbitals are OP? Thought the QQ couldn't get any worse.
Orbitals aren't OP, the ability to earn them so easily is. But that isn't what this thread is about. |

Erm.....that's the whole point of orbitals. Stick to the topic or go and make a new thread, see how fast you get shot down. |
