Should the PP scoring go?

Postby maxim12 » 18 May 2019, 14:08

I'm talking about Player Points, the points that you obtain only in Ranked matches...

Personaly, I think the game needs to return to the old root of Kills/KDr as the main scoring system. Yes, it had issues, but It's more simpler. I dont see Plazma Burst 2 as a Competitive game, it just doesent add any value to the game, which mean't to be more of a 'sandbox' game.

Well, good point, but I'm talking about rather that the old Kills/KD'r scoring system was more simple and less of an "Risk" tryhard effort for a casual flash game, PP is just too much of an unnecessarily complicated system for a casual 2d sidescroller sandbox flash game.

that's how you get easy stat farming. there's a reason competitive modes in games don't use simple stats like KDR and instead opt for something like mmr/elo. simple doesn't always mean better
