[Priley]

Hi ^-^
Not much to say here, read title

I see/get killsteal(ed) a lot, so that's why I think this should be added
Thanks ;p

Yes i would like that, so you can get points when you assist or get killsteald

@MrGrumpyCheese reasoning? @ItsDavey_ you too please

I kinda disagree with you because it is kinda easy to get an assist as an infected player. Everyone will be able to hit the person 1time so they will have an assist. Sorry just kinda don't see why

That's the same in Team Eggwars and Team Skywars though ;p

Well on eggwars and skywars you will not have the same amount of people targetting 1person. You kinda have to see it like 15vs1 and all 15 will be able to get one hit one him so everyone has an assist.

It's not that much of a difference

I agree, but only for Infected kililng humans, not the other way around.

Considering players are literally assisting each other in killing the survivors/infected, it'd seem logical to add this to Infection as well. I really don't see why we wouldn't.

I do agree as games like eggwars and skywars have them. The real question is, should they be added to every game...?

To every team game, yes!

Sweeeet!
That would actually be amazing!

If we have assists in archer assault, skywars and eggwars, I think for consistency throughout the games it would be nice to have this added.
However this is a game where there are always outnumbered players on either team.
This makes it easy to get lots of free points with assists.

That's the same in Eggwars and Skywars. I can also easily hit some players and get points out of it

I mean... eggwars + assists is godlike due to the bug where the assist damage conrtibution doesn't always reset after a person is killed. I'd be able to get multiple assists for just hitting that person once (and deal some significant damage) in the game.

I don't like the sound of assists for the infected killing humans as pretty much every infected player who hits a human will get an assist. For the last human, you'd often find over 10 players get an assist, which they really didn't deserve. If they helped kill someone a little, then their reward should be one fewer enemies to hunt down, and an extra player on their team.

I see/get killsteal(ed) a lot, so that's why I think this should be added

I don't mind the possibility of having kill steals, as it's fun to compete against your teammates, and it also sometimes gives the human a last chance if everyone starts spam clicking to get the final hit.

Assists are especially good in games like Skywars and Eggwars for two reasons:​

• If other teams join the fight and are able to take the kills (and loot in certain game modes), you still get something out of it, in the form of an assist. This obviously doesn't work for Infection as there aren't other teams.​
• If you are killed in a fight, then your enemy dies, you still gain something. For humans this wouldn't make any sense as you would be getting assists for killing the people now on your team.​

I also wouldn't want to see assists for humans killing infected players because you are able to kill infected very easily and quickly, in two or three hits, so assists are irrelevant and undeserved.​

You don't need to compete against your teammates, you have to work together.
