[Style Points] Buckler Kills

I think because of the unique qualities of this weapon and the specialization it will require, a skill with this weapon should grant style points as well.

Because points matter.

i concur. and yes points matter in other game types, but shouldn't be forgotten in ctf.

agreed, buckler kills should also give style points :)

Maybe a BB buckler kill gives more points also.

Same with blade

Only if you hit multiple targets in the same throw. In that case, +1 style points per hit.

If you can hit someone with 1 of the 2 attempts with the bucklrang, you suk and should get -1 Style points.

Don't you mean "can't"?

I think he ment that the weapon sucks and you should get negative points for being good with a shazbotty/cheap weapon.

shazbotty?

How is the buckler a "cheap" weapon? Making a kill with the buckler is at LEAST as hard as an MA with the DL.


Perhaps you should lose style points for hitting people with disc splash?

remove points from ctf, problem solved

no way, points are a standard way of doing things, and should be in the game. they're in every other fps, tribes isn't some kind of communist video game, it has some meritocracy involved.

you're team needs to win. There's your merit for doing well.


But yeah it wont sell, we need points for headshots too!

oh wait...

buckler is easy

whats the problem with being a video game? own up to the point system, its there for fun.

maybe some people want "advanced jetpack based territory/flag control simulation modeling" but i guarantee you most dont.

Points are fun.. and they mean alot in assessing your performance.. I have played games where I thought I was getting owned only to find out I had high score for both teams.. they are also a good recruitment tool (You shouldn't recruit based on points.. but it let's you know who to look at)

this forum is dumb and makes the word s-h-i-t into shazbot... so shazbotty is shi-tty

Amen Combatwombat remove points..
