This is a very simply suggestion, regardes suicides.

In many multiplayer games, who suicides get -1 frag...why we can't do this in soldat?
For example: player X has 20 frags, and suicides...after suicide, he would have 19 frags.

Isn't that good? *thumbs up*

Actually, this was added in one of the 1.1.x versions but was shot down one or two patches later due to it's unpopolarity. Suicides in soldat are often due to quasi random events, and sometimes by bugs. I really didn't like it either.

mb players get -1 frag when selfkill only with weapon or kill command?

How else would someone get a selfkill, if not with a weapon or kill command?

looks like you haven't ever played realistic mode...

this would be a good idea if FF is on so that if you kill to many teammates then you'll get kicked or banned from a server, lets say -4 score gets you kicked for killing teammates.

Um, falling?

Maybe it would be an optional thing of the person who opens a server :)

Too many people are suggesting server side options these days.
Keep the server setup simple,we don't want it to take an hour to setup.

To many bugs to impliment this. I cant tell you how mnay times I've killed myself with a nade while flying with the nade bug

I just randomly die most of the time...so, nah.

Yeah, Soldat is a 2D game... You will always end killing yourself

*lol* Hey, yeah, that happens a lot in all 2D games I've played! xD

This idea, simply wont work, there are too many suicide causing bugs to implement this fairly and keep players content.
How-ever this is still a good idea, considering that people on low health, will think twice before commiting suicide and angering players.

I don't like this idea. Suicides are fun

in duel some noobs use selfkill-tips (usually nades) when he dont want die and give opponent 1 frag :(
its wrong when people use selfkill.

yep people are cheap like that...
i still say we should have that...

I dont support this idea seeing as if someone gets stuck inside a polygon, and the only way out is to type /kill or /mercy or /brutalkill, then they lose -1 point...kind of unfair? or if ure on voland and u get hit by a nade and u fly into the pit and die, u lose 1 point? not fair either, and the other selfkill bugs are unfair too, the only thing i say is -1 point for tking..

maybe in rambo like -1 kill for killing a non rambo

Yeah, so you see a guy rushing for the rambo bow and you just stand there waiting for him to get it and kill you all? No, you kill him and you rush for the flag. Taking out a point for doing that is wrong.

However, I highly agree on the suggestion of -1 point per teamkill. This would make people think twice before teamkilling anyone.

maybe there should at least be an otion to enable this. cause in 1on1 ladder games, this would definitely be usefull...

nah. if anyone was teamkilling and being a total ass, I doubt they would even care about getting minus points. so mostly those affected will be those who kill a teammate by accident. perhaps u get 2 chanses, and after u killed 2 teammates the -1 thing will be put to action.

also, if anyone fires a law, and a stupid teammate goes in front, the law dude will get 1 selfkill and -1 points on top of that. think about it. btw this is an old thread

Mabye this should only be in deathmatch, pointmatch, and teammatch.
INF and CTF makes no difference

A long time ago I decided that you shouldn't get -1 points for selfkills because of the fact that your life in Soldat doesn't matter. What matters is how much you kill.

Of course this can be abused, but that's why you get longer respawn time after suicide and you get a death count which matters when you have a tie.
