Awesome! At least one little step forward in making the game look graphically better. Implement ASAP.

Good idea, and btw killing sprees might look impressive too.

I don't think Soldat should have Killstreaks, it doesn't fit the game style.

... It already does. You can see the "double/triple/multi/mega/etc kill" messages when you kill multiple enemies in a row.

I support this idea primarily for adding a feature of displaying an image on your screen instead of a string of text. Making kill streak messages look a bit nicer and flashier (although less obstructive than on the screenshot in the main post) would be a nice little bonus and a step into improving Soldat visually.

I know it does, but it's not like that. Soldat's resmble more to classic shooters and I think it's how it should stay.
I Like the idea too, I'm not saying it's bad, but this is how the game is IMO.

Yep everything is in text now adding images for kill streaks would look awful

Maybe, but I only play on servers with SCTFL rules, which means no scripts.

Maybe in the future, but not in 1.6.4 for sure.

So if someone will make nice, practical pictures (probably with opacity); it will be implemented?

Covers too much of the screen for my liking. It would be cool if the current text that appears during your kills looks different. Maybe for Masta Killa have confetti fall on top of your soldat.
