Points going down on stats?

[Deviant1]

Can someone give me a heads up as to how the point system works for my stats? I understand that kills give me points and better ranking. But what causes the points to go down?

Oh and the 295,000+ players is that strictly people who are steam verified on the servers?

Thanks

if you kill higher ranked players you will get more points. idk your rank but if its low enough youd get 25 points for a killing me (ranked 15 atm). if you are killed by lower ranked ppl theyll take more points from you. its not always 25 points. if you rly plan to invade the top100-200 and if your a good player blackmesa would be your best call since thats where the most top50 players play.

You always lose points always

I think thats how it works... , or at least thats what happens in my experience. I'm around position 300

Ohhh, so points are taken from other players not just given by the server. Yeah I lost about 600 points and wondered why, I guess it was from the class on class event a few days back. Didn't make sense up until now.

Much obliged fellas

I believe on events stats are turned off so it does not effect the rankings, I could be wrong. If they are still on for events they should be off.:scared:

no, no, the event server does not count your stats.
*Servers that do*

Anyway, hlx works like this:

You start off and begin killing players, after a while you rank up, which causes the following:
______________
1: You get very little points for killing player who you should be killing, basically, people new to the server(s)
2: You loose a lot of points for dying to people who should not be killing you. IE the new folks.
3: This means, to stay at your place you have to either
... a) kill people who has higher rank than you, and few of them,
or
... b) Kill lots and lots of people with lower rank, without them killing you.

And by "lots and lots" I mean a K/D of ~4:1


EDIT: Oh yeah, as dy1an said, "actions" count, but meh, really.

Kills arent the only way, try playing on the 2fort fast respawn which gives you a visual cue in the chat as to what you're getting points for, but this can also be depressing as you see your hard earned score slowly drain

I've relaxed on my stats more or less. I got in the top 10 which is more than I thought I'd ever get to, so I'm happy. I just try to play well as a team now and don't focus on padding.

What happens is that I think you lose quite a bit more points then you do when you kill somebody that is what I have found out

He does indeed.

 

[Rogue205]

I dont care about points, my satisfaction comes from getting head-shots on other snipers.

Remember:
Points are TRANSFERRED on kills, but new ones are GENERATED when you cap a point and such. Because f this there will always be enough points to go around and grow your total number of points. If you're starting to lose some feel free to play your best classes some more until the total points pool goes up so you can earn more.
Be tactical, kick BRASS.
