I've been playing survival games with my friends for a long time now, however I have a lot more points than my friends as I usually got the finale hit on other players because I have cut of players running away. This means that the other people in my team who have been doing most of the damage get no reward.

This is why I think the points should be split between the people who have hit the person in a certain time span before they where killed.

I'm not sure if this is possible to do but I think it would be a cool thing to be added that will give people who team up a more even spread of points.

Kill stealing adds to the feel of The Hunger Games as it can provoke backstabbing :D

I like the idea but the thing is, right now the point system is balanced because you gain the same amount of points as your target lose. If 3 players helped killing a player and they gain lets say 20% of what the killer got, the point gain will be bigger than the loss. That will slowly increase the amount of points ingame and after a few months the average player might have 2000 points (just an example)

I thought the points could be divided between them, not get the same amount that the person lost each.

Yep that could work, and it would encourage players to go solo for maximum point gain. The time window for getting an assist needs to be pretty short though, otherwise people would just start punching everyone once just to gain points later when they die:p

Yea, it would be a short timer. Also people already punch each other at the corn to try and get points from when the people they punch fall to there death, drown ect.

Depends. I think a person should (possibly) receive a small percentage of the kill assist but the other person gets the full amount of points for the kill. If not, this feature shouldn't be added :O

maybe depending on the amount of damage you do.

Yeah that seems reasonable but if someone were to do 90% of the damage and someone did 10%, got the kill and got full points, ppl would get a lot of points over a period of time (like graveyard said)
