    Sounds like a good idea Koopa but I have one or two questions,


    1. Would the 'Damage done - damage taken' score not encourage people to camp? An example would be, say 3 guys per team, 2 teams.

    Massive mosh at the start, and one guy (Bob) decides to stay out of it and camp. Meanwhile, Cecil (from the opposing team) get stuck in and acquits himself admirably before dying. 700 damage dealt - 350 taken for a total of 350 points. Cecil has killed both of Bob's teammates and his own mates are unharmed.

    Now, Bob is the king of Campers, the Big Winnebago (sp?) and he manages to kill both of Cecil's mates without taking a hit! (well it COULD happen). Bob finishes on 700 points. Cecil finishes 2nd on 350 (fair gap)

    Bobmate 1: 175
    Bobmate 2: 175 (split evenly)
    Cecilmate 1: 0
    Cecilmate 2: 0

    Doesn't seem very equitable does it?

    2. I can't see how you would get around the spamming problem either, unless you set it that damage done to your own team is say, twice the negative of damage taken by you.
    Would also solve the problem of firing blind into melee (something which I am guilty of! I mean, if you can't damage your mate why not give fire support?).

    The damage done - damage taken would be better than harming teammates 'cos in CA you sometime get the guys who follow you about using the shaft on you even thouhg you're on the same team! (Even now, it mightn't do damage but it can stop you dodging a rock or getting out of the way of a grenade).

    How about a mod that says, any damage done to a team mate by a player is minused from the player and not the team mate? Would that be too difficult?

    Thanks

    PS. what about that camping patch? You know, the one with the bright colours. Even better, is there one that makes the guilty party glow like Quad or Pent?
