I'd like it if the game awarded the kill to whoever dealt the majority of damage to the victim tracked over 30 seconds. Second place gets a kill assist, even if they dealt the "killing blow".

Purely because of this thread; if i ever see you, I'm going to try to kill whoever you're killing. I do not normally do this purposefully, however i am a strong believer that in a team based game (such as this one), team efficiency (more kills, less deaths for the team) is maximised when players work together, and in numbers. To this end, I actively seek to help teammates in their engagements to further increase their likelihood of success in determining victory. Regardless of how players work together (in concert or otherwise) in a pub match, the goal for everyone (I would assume) is to win. Stop being so egocentric and concerned with how many kills you get and be more concerned with how you're affecting the match outcome.

I almost kill a guy... and then I die. You're telling me that I deserve to get the kill just because some random teammate finished him off for me? Then the people who are only out to get kills will just let people recover so they can get the kill themselves, even if it ends up screwing their own team over. At least the current system somewhat encourages teamwork.

Edit: Maybe kill assists should just be counted as half kills? You'd need 2 kill assists for it to register as a kill, but any remainders wouldn't roll over into your score. So you can't end a match at .5 and then get the other .5 in another match.

It happens quite a bit in my heavy fit, I'll be mowing down some poor red with my HMG and some blueberry will jump right into my line of fire, block my bullets and still my kill.

While on one hand it is silly to complain about it because at the end of the day, your team got the kill and that is what matters. But it does cause problems when you are almost able to get an orbital but you are just short because someone repeatedly stole my kills.

No, that's not how it should be. If two people are shooting at one target, the person who dealt more damage deserves the kill fair and square and the other person gets the assist. If two people are shooting at one target and the person that dealt the most damage on the target dies BEFORE the target is dead, he should get the assist because the way you're explaining would be idiotic. That's just what makes sense IMO

You realize that you just made the "kill" system unnecessarily complicated right? Now the system has to check if your still alive every time you get a kill, just so people wont "steal" your kills. Which system is more idiotic now?

If people picking off your kills is such a problem, then maybe you should kill your targets so they have nothing to pick off?

WPs, not kills, should just be awarded based on damage dealt.

If you follow me in game, the only thing you'll be doing is learning. In my squad, we're all team players. My mic is always on, making sure we have that communication. I probably won't even notice you when I'm playing because I'm too busy focusing on that win. Oh, and you should of asked what game mode I usually play which is ambush. Skirmish has been really laggy for me lately.

i know plenty of people that do that.

i think the kill should go to the player that deals the most damage

Snip

I shoot anybody, rather they almost dead or not. If I see somebody in 1v1 gunfight I will come in and take kill. I expect the same in return. I will never whine YOU STOLE MY KILL! Unless I am joking.

what amazes me is there's actually ppl who scream on the mic for help and then they get pissed when you steal their kills

Oh sh*t, oh sh*, OH SH*T!!!...
HEY, WAT DA FUK??? YOU STOLE MY KILL!!! F*CKING B*TCH.

Really now? I stole "your" kill? looked to me like I was saving your ass.

Not the ones with sniper rifles. I'm talking about the people that purposely wait for you to weaken an enemy to snipe that last little bit of health away. I hope they fix this as to where in these situations, the person who has done the most damage, takes the kill and the other, the assist.

Do you run into these type of people?

EDIT: Also, **** YOU if you do this on purpose.

Say I throw a grenade as I die? If it kills someone then I won't get the kill because I'm also dead. Your system is completely unnecessary, that's what makes it complicated. Simple is better. Whoever killed someone, got the kill. You wish to create a completely new system of checks just because you're getting a few kills stolen? I get like 20 kill assists per match, I don't mind. If you do care, then you should work on getting kills faster. Improve your aim, do more damage, idk, but complaining about kill stealing in a shooter? Who cares if the guy was right next to you or 100 feet away with a sniper rifle? Just do your job and quit worrying about how others are playing.

You really don't know so stop feeding me opinions, trying to make them sound like facts and come at me with real facts which you obviously can't unless you ask a dev yourself.


But sloth, i guess our discussion is over because you're not trying to understand what I'm trying to say and you clearly just want your opinions to be shoved down my throat. You shared yours and that it, its over. i guess you win? idk, I'm not sure how to get you to stop posting so I'm telling you, you win. Your opinion sounds the best. you should tell the devs your idea or something.
