Title: Don't award kills to mannable guns
Post by: Heinkel on November 16, 2002, 09:16:30 PM: Right now it's just a dweeb-fest:

____ landed 100 and whatever kills of ____ in a feild gun

...it's not like man. gun kills count to score....so why award them a kill? So when someone looks up their stats they can be impressed? WOW !!! This guy has 800 kills and 10 deaths!!! he must be awsome!!

Man ack should be scored as death when killed.
Man ack should be Tracer ON.

Solution: Ignore it and play on.

Post by: Ecliptik on November 16, 2002, 11:57:06 PM: I agree with Fancy. Man-acks count to stats but not to score. Besides, if you look up somebody's kill stats, you always ignore man-ack kills. I have quite a few ship gun kills, but most of those are from frantic efforts at defending a CV group from suicide dweebs. Any time I man a field gun, it's with the aim of giving a few vulchers an extra death on their stats, rather than to grab a few kills for myself. :p

My Bigest pet peave on maned ack is no tracer this rubs me quiet raw.

My secind are the dumb ases who dont kill it when atacking a field.

But more than eney of these is how stupid I feal when I miss it myself and fall victem to it.

Fleat ack is and entierly diferent matter, CV's are extreamly easy to sink, as much as it pains me to say the , the more power to them( fleat ack).

Man. ack kills don't count to score, that's not what I am worried about. Just don't think people should be rewarded for being even more, "timid," and hiding behind a 1-ping-kill gun.

...and how will an alteration to the scoring system change that?

Post by: Mino on November 17, 2002, 08:11:20 PM: I agree with Mitzu and Fariz, the no tracer tracer bug is gone on for much longer than it needed to.

Butt.....

I say give the manable's a score for a kill, but also give players who kill the manable's a score. The whole issue is screwed on sideways.

Play is is the best advice!:)
