The problem with your entire thread is that you have no way of knowing what another person is trying do, they're all your assumptions. They could be trying to help you, they could be trying to steal your kill, you have no way of knowing what it is they're doing. Are you psychic, can you read their minds through a TV screen? If you can't then you should stop talking, because unless you ask them yourself, you have no idea what it is your talking about, so stop trying to present you assumptions as facts.

I'm not saying "complicated" as in hard, I'm saying "complicated" as in unnecessary. The current system works, I'm not sure why you insist on changing it.

Assigning the kill to whomever did the most damage wouldn't work.

People like the OP that are bent on getting the kill score wouldn't waste ammo on a guy I just sniped into <50% health. They'd wait until he healed a bit, then go try kill him.

Or they'd post something on the forums about how snipers purposefully keep leaving enemies half-dead so he can't get any kills.

You made a thread about something you have no way of knowing. That's your fault, just like people stealing your kills.

Like Ike I said before, a friend and I kill steal from each other all the time. It's not easy. The only way to steal a kill is for the other person to make a mistake. They either missed, had to reload, or they didn't do enough damage. If you have enough time to aim and shoot, then you have enough time to land the kill. If you didn't land the kill, then it's your own fault.

You're telling us that there are snipers who look for 1v1 fights, that they know exactly when you're going to mess up, and how much damage you have to inflict before their shot becomes lethal? If their timing and accuracy is that great, why didn't they just land a head shot?

But yeah, we're done.

Let me sum it up for OP.

Basicly, majority of people here are saying that
we are fine with the type of person who intentionally attack weaker enemies with mind set to KS purposely
That is our opinion in the matter.

I have a sniper and I ALWAYS snipe the guy that is easiest to kill.

Did I say those people don't exist? No, I didn't. I have no way of proving that, it's impossible to prove a negative. All I said is you have no proof that they do. What's next, a thread about the existence of unicorns?

BTW: If you've read what I said, then you'd see I actually said I felt sorry for anyone who resorted to that.

Oh, so now I can guarantee that my bullet will be the one that lands the killing blow? What do I have to do, pray to the random number god?

You keep saying this is over.... and then you keep replying

No one is saying they are fine with it, majority of people here are trying to speak on their defense saying that they don't do that intentionally. Did you even read all 4 pages because I did.

Sorry but I don't feel like reading through this thread.

Has anyone suggested distributing WP based on how much damage you do? And either leave it at that and let the guy who delivers the killing blow get the kill or give the kill to the guy that does the most damage.

Mollerz! I just wanted to say I zap'd you with my LR the other day.

How'd my ill' friend taste? Minty?

Your name reminds me of x-files, so its something I recognize and focus on lol.

See, this is what I'm being accused of, making an assumption about a specific player that I've never played with. You can squad up with me and then post back here. I know how to be a team player and I definitely wouldn't run away from a target that i see is almost dead. Depending on the situation in the game, i can tell if the player has it handled. I've KS myself, but never with the wrong intentions, only if I see if the player is getting shot or reloading. idk, theres a lot of diff scenarios, but I know how i play and you definitely do not since we've never even played together and if we did, I never noticed you. And you're mentioning snipers LOL oh jeez, did you even read the first sentence in my OP?

LOL@ "he can't get any kills" I want to play with you. You down?

We all KNOW you are not picking on any specific person or actual snipers, so why are you getting bent when a sniper speaks up? We Snipers see KS alot, both shoot at same target at same time, a running red and can't quite make the leading shot but another does, the reds ducking into cover after I hit him once and the other still has the shot, etc..

The point being made above is if you award the kill to person does the most damage, then as a sniper I would have 20+ kills a match. Bunch of reds attacking a point, I hit those I can leaving most with less than 50% health and the muddogs defending the point finish them (I get alot of assists, but with your damaged based system means LOTS of kills for me). If thats what you want, then fine by me, just don't open a thread later on complaining about snipers getting all the kills. PERSONALLY I don't really care who gets the kill as long as that red dies, I'm still getting WPs for it.

Finally, you started the thread to speak about KS, then get upset because people aren't agreeing with you! LOL
You are in a 1v1 and doing fine and will kill the red, blueberry comes around a corner and starts shooting at the undead red and gets the kill! So what, growup, it is but only a game.

PS: Only a person obsessed with KDR would even bring up the subject, have you even looked at the leader board for KDR???

Exactly.

It can be annoying at times, and usually I'm the one annoying other people by doing it. After playing FPS games for so long I've gotten ridiculous sick, and tired, of holding back from shooting enemies just so that I can observe and wait to see if my teammate wins a gunfight. It's a bad habit IMO and it doesn't cut it when playing against good players, if it's red and you have the chance to make it dead, make it so.

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.

OH NOOOOOOO

My team got 75 points towards our next OB instead of 50, (or 90 if we were frago'd) this transgression against my individual cannot be sanctioned!!!

there's no other FPS that does it any different. if you notice FPS vets will hold their fire because they have perfected the art of kill steal and are waiting for the noob to do the opening damage. can't beat em join em so dont be that noob who attacks first be the vet who steals the kill. or leave the pack; because that all important squad could possibly be cramping your style.
