While we're griping, as a slight stats whore I really really despise that because I'm around 150th, I'll be playing Medic. I might have a five-minute life, with 2500 healing, 3 assists and one kill on an enemy Soldier, and I'm top of the scoreboard for being the biggest 'credit to team' possible. But I finally die to some Sniper or Heavy who just joined the server for the first time and lose 8 points overall?! (Gain 10, lose 18).

Yes that was a rant, but I find it frankly ridiculous and whilst I'm not playing to increase my stats, it irritates me significantly to be punished for playing well.

Ah Daystar, if only you remembered the heady days where medics got 3 points for an assist... Those were the days where medics ruled the world - or at least I was top of the stats!

The points are a tad low for medics TBH, maybe a boost to the using uber points would be better than an increase on asists though - promotes team work rather than whoring assists (yes I know, pot kettle etc)

If I had any control over the plugin, I'd give medics points for just healing, as they do in the game. Maybe every 500 hp healed would give you 2 points. Right now I agree it's very hard to score lots of points as a medic unless you deliberately go around killing people (which usually happens the other way around ). I mean, even engies get like 2-4 points for building anything, so why would medics be so limited?

It's open source, so if you want to do that, then you can. You'll just have figure out how to do that and learn a bit of Pawn and Perl.

As Medic, stay alive, keep everyone topped up and the assists and points will come.

There are no plans to change Medic points from what is universally accepted. The Medic already gets a +1 point increase over a standard assist (1 point).

To be honest, frog, because you're right about the Medic thing, it's more the fact that HLstats seems to think that because you play on the server you are somehow ten times better than the guy that just joined: he could be a Division 1 Soldier but you only get 2 points if you ubersaw him and he gets 18 for just shooting you?
