Return of Reckoning

Hi,

in mourkain temple killing a player gives 10 points, in all other scenarios its only 5 point. I think it could ease the "flagrunning" problem, if killing would give 10 points in the other scenarios too.

it works quite nice in mourkain, even if other side has the orb most of time, because they play very defensivly, you still can win by fighting and killing.

should be a win win.

What others think?

The problem with it is that if you reward killing too much on the Domination maps, people spawncamp instead of holding.

usually spawncamping does not give many kills, as people dont leave their spawn (or only sneak out to get the other flags.)

And even if: If a team is able to spawn camp the other team. Isnt it better when the SC is over fast, instead of a long struggle to death?

but yes, of course killing shouldnt be rewarded so much that, flag capping gets obsolute. (as mentioned in mourkain with holding the orb and killing count 10 points, it works quite well, the scs are very tight when it comes to one holds orb other kills faster they all end like 500:480 etc. ).

Perhaps it could be tested.

In MT one side held the ball while spawn camping, but they were already reking us so it didn't matter. they won because we couldn't touch the ball and they'd just get pts from killing

I am for keeping it the way it is. It makes the sc's more strategic and I have seen weaker teams pull out wins because the better teams are so focused on killing. It adds an element of strategy and prevents the 6 or 12 man rofltrain

Basically this. Some premades are hell-bend on getting kills only, no matter what scenario it is. At least the losing side (in terms of kills) gets a chance to get an emblem for their troubles.
