Combine tick system with kill proximity system?

???

Profit.

Also, we need a working assist system in my opinion.

People who focus on taking out cavalry or deal lots of damage to soften up enemies deserve a Medal.

YES FUCKING YES YES YES. Assists are unrewarded and its SO frustrating when I back off an oponent I have stabbed/cut a lot because a fucking reckless teammate has come in swinging all over the fucking place, and I cant be assed to be teamkilled, and he gets the kill on a almost dead opponent: I want credit.

ALSO: teamkilling should carry a question: "Forgive: 1/Yes  2/No" and all NO's should be cash deductions. This will make everyone rage at me right now, but it's not like I don't want the same thing applied to me. People need to more fucking careful when swinging, especially the teammate who is being attacked 2v1, you run from INFRONT of teammate, behind enemies, to make it clear to friend that Im coming to help him: arrive-> teamhit.....WHY?

Nice lobbying there, Grey.

But I do agree, I assist way more than I kill. Reward for assists would help me a lot.

I suggest:

- Some kind of profit for assist / killing (For example, valour for a good assistant)
- Hard punishment for team attackers. (The same as 1st, but on a negative kind like: Your bad behaviour on the battle field hath been rewarded)

Well, the negative "punishment" could be GREAT stuff, and taylored to the teamkill in question:

Team Horsebump a guy to death, next round your horses in your inventory are replaced by goats. Rideable, loveable, GREAT.
Teamshoot with a crossbow, next round you must use a Nerf (the foam rubber) gun.
Teamshoot with a bow, you must shoot chopsticks from a banana
2h teamkill: Dildo of death shall be you only usable item.

the main problem with the kill rewarding system was that a lot of people could have a plated charger and plate all the time, but you could solve that by just decreasing the gold you gain from combat and kills, i prefer the old idea too. and another reason for the change was teamwork, well it didn't change shit about teamwork. this system also discorages playing, because it is boring and you don't have to do anything to get gold and exp, it's become a long grind, which is for me a discoragement(though i still play it whenever i can :lol:)

Assists are definitely needed. I've seen plenty of threads about it and tons of support. Why has it never been done?

Personal based rewards are inbalanced. Either your whole team gets more rewards, or we all get none. Simple. I really like chadz is taking care of his "baby" the way he wants.

I never really understood why people get so upset about kill-stealing/unrecognized assists... This really is a team based game.

I play a thrower and I throw darts at enemies and let my teamates get the kills.. And so what? I dont expect any thanks or rewards, I'm just doing the job I'm tasked to do, support. I know for sure whether or not I helped my team win. (I also do pretty well with my 1h/shield without throwing items too KDR wise; be a thrower if you want to be "support" and still get good number of kills. I think its fun though.)

If I'm feeling particularly bloodthirsty, I use my 2h main and pad my KDR pretty well (I use my 4.5k haubergon most of the time dont hate!)

I guess what I'm trying to say is, if you're a more than average player you shouldn't feel the need for assists since you're more than making a name for yourself. I feel some people use it for an excuse... If you're 0-6, I doubt your "assist" points would be worth much...

ninja e: Ofc, an assist system would definitely be beneficial, my main point is, if you're a good player, you shouldnt need to worry about "assists."
