Watching others play cRPG is a brave act and the game rewards people accordingly.

The other day I saw something like 20 people get valor, when there were maybe 25 or 30 players on each team.

irl something shorted on the shuttle and laika overheated and died within a few hours of liftoff and for a brief while one could look up to the stars and see a light shooting across the sky that was actually a warm dog corpse slingshoting about the earth at thousands of miles per hour which was arguably humanity's greatest achievement so far

Interesting, I'll take a look.

When, exactly? Do you remember what the score values on the teams were?

Looking at the kills, an average at or below 0 may cause some bugs. Maybe people in spectator are accidentally counted, too.

I saw tons of people get valour when two teammates were punching each other to accumulate many negative points.

Time to make that autoban script for people who manage to get lower than -10 score.

Could that be too low though? You can lose a good amount of points quickly if you are unlucky, bad, a poor pinger, or even ranged!
Yes, been posted before. Rather than practicing swinging a weapon, it would be better to go 1 hander and learn a martial art that specializes in takedowns, because that's all that really matters in that sport.

Well, I can also attest that it isn't only spectators. Arn de Gothia joined the tail end of a siege map a couple weeks ago, died once and his score was 0 with 0 kills and 1 deaths. ... He was the only one to get valour that round with less than 10 seconds of play time.  :lol:

Whaat. I get that every now and then (not often) unintentionally since I'm terrible at the game. Bad situational awareness, and even if i aim, there's still that randomness factor in shots that seems to magnet my throwing weapons right into a teammates head instead of the enemy their fighting because of how much people spin and switch positions in combat.

Throwing weapons sail through the air so slowly that the combat situation's completely changed half the time by the time the weapon gets there unless you're practically already in melee range, and if you've got to be that close, why even use ranged at all?

Also, this would kill friends messing around with each other after round's over and start smacking each other. Not really important, but it's fun.

I also see 2h heros and people with high str get it pretty easily for accidental TKs when their swings go through an enemy or teammates walk right into their swings. Wouldn't necessarily be banning trolls and greifers, just unlucky people or people who are bad at the game. I've also seen a lot of people with higher score smacking teammates around in the past, so this might even be an incentive just to wait until you've build up some score to start being a dick, so they'd look more 'legit'.

I was only joking.

I'm simply going to set a limit on the influence that negative scores can have. This way, one person can't get an extremely negative score and cause significantly more players to receive valour.
