Title: Capture points on scoreboard
Post by: -{Phoenix}- on August 05, 2006, 09:26:03 am: Well on the scoreboard, where your score is shown, I think in gamemodes like CTF and INF your capturing points(points you have made by capturing the flag) should be seperate from your killing points(amount of people you have killed). However the total score is not affected. By this you can see how many people you have killed, as well as how many times you have captured the flag.

For or against? :D

I would think this would be best executed with a little flag by your name for each cap, like the star you get if you register.

However, I vote yes, and I can't undertsnad why this was never just a natural part of soldat. It's the greatest lack in soldat, if you ask me, and I definitely think it should be 'fixed' asap.

I support this.

Post by: BooBoo McBad on August 05, 2006, 11:30:14 am: I support it too, why not a new column that says "captures"? That or a flag beside the name and the number of times you captured.

I thought it may of been, but I didn't see it anywhere else.

Post by: {LAW} Gamer_2k4 on August 05, 2006, 01:42:18 pm: I really like this idea. Often I'll have 20 - 30 kills in a CTF game, but i'll be near the bottom of the scores list because everyone else got 2 - 3 (or more) captures and I had none. The people who protect the flag carriers do more work that the carrier himself, and they should get credit for it.

Defending on Kampf on u13 Big CTF is the easiest way to get 20 kills before someone caps. 8)

OT: I think this is a good idea, then we won't have big debates at the end of each round in public games about who got the most kills, who capped and who didn't, etc etc.

Wait, wait. Update Soldat regularly?! Rethink what you said...

And btw, he does check, he's just busy working on his new project. Besides, he probably has a life outside of these forums, unlike some of us here. ;_;

Yea often when you defend your base you often only make points by killing while others capture the flag. Pain in the ass when you have less points than evry1 else for a reason that they dont know about.

yours doesn't, but collectively we almost matter!

Post by: echo_trail on August 07, 2006, 03:46:07 pm: Almost...

It's funny, really. No one in this thread votes against this idea, and somehow we all know there's not a chance of it actually being implimented.

Usually I wouldn't mind about the pints of captures and kills being added up together, but I'm on my way to retrieve my good ol' glorious soldat days and skills =)
I'm Kindo starting from the beginning once again, and I'm meeting alot of people along me way. As you join a server, it's just nice to know if you're enemy is really good, or if he just capped once before you entered.
Obviously I could just stay a little longer in the server, and find out myself as I encounter him, but still..
