Re: I dig it.

In Response To: Re: I dig it. (Pkmnrulz240) : Assists, kill streaks, sure. Those are fine. But there is no reason to be : awarding bonus team points for assassinations and grenade tags. That : doesn't promote good teamwork, that promotes trying to be a hotshot in : every game. In a Team Slayer match, the most important thing is kills, not : how you kill the enemy. I really hope Halo doesn't move more in that : kind of a direction. That could obviously be reflected in the scoring. In a slayer match a kill would be worth the most points and then you are awarded additional points for the method. A kill could be ten points. Headshots, assassinations, stickies could be plus fives. Kill streak, plus ten. Assists worth seven. Whatever. If you played really bad but managed to get in a few extra flourishes, the extra reward makes up for it. Better players will still win by virtue of being better players. And since it will likely be tied into whatever player investment system they build, it goes a long way towards rewarding individual achievement in addition to team work. I see no reason to assume there would be any more "hotshotting" than there already is.
