I mean it. Come on, as if 50 points wasn't enough, now I lose 395. That's just not right. I'm gonna die eventually and if I lose that many points every time... Meh. Other people probably only lose like 5 points. :p
Also, many people were complaining about losing 50 points, so now you just increased it .-.
If somebody could please explain what the deal with this is I would love to hear it.

*Complaints about new score system*
You lose 2.5% of your score, so I imagine that's awful when you have a really high score. I have only played one game since the update and I won it, so I wouldn't know.
That max points you can lose though should be reduced to 30 :p Much better than the old 50 and much better than the new umlimited.

Yeah. The new unlimited is harsh. I guess I'll have to give up on caring about points. :p

Like I explained in the game THE WHOLE POINT of points is to see your "skill" ranking. The people were complaining they were loosing 50 points when they have over 500, they will only loose 12. The bounty system is something that would fluctuate greatly as we don't want you to collect it (or make it a challenge too). Your ranking is based on victories and the tie breaker looks at your bounty score.

So sorry you are loosing your bounty faster, but just like the saying "the bigger they are, the harder they fall".

No Chad, I just don't really appreciate the new system. But as there's no way to fight with it I might as well go along with it.

People need to care for their victories, bounty points are their for tie breakers and makes them more of a target. Also brand new to this weekend, people can spend bounty to add bigger prices for bigger targets. For people who battlelogging collecting these points unfairly (not naming names), they will be hit the hardest because of them collecting the points unfairly.

We never wanted to people to collect the points rather than just fluctuate between players.

Honestly, Bounty Points, to me. Don't seem to be that big of a deal in retrospect. They're more of bragging rights. The reason I'm draining points is so I don't have to worry about it anymore and people will accuse me of hacking less. They always say I do when they see my points.

Naw. I'm just gonna drain them all. Less stress for me, and my rank still stays the exact same! :)
