xX_shoemaker_Xx Posted October 22, 2010 Share Posted October 22, 2010 has anyone really figured out the skill points yet? i've had matches where i've gone 27-0, and lost skill points! But then had matches where i've gone 12-9 and gained skill points, or even 11-13 and gained skill points! just wondering if anyone knows why this is..

KinGLee_uk Posted October 22, 2010 Share Posted October 22, 2010 Points are not based on k/d ratio, more about winning the match and what you do to win the match Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
rkylehiemenz Posted October 22, 2010 Share Posted October 22, 2010 Yeah, if you are playing combat missions... you need to be the attacker or the defender in those rounds to really earn skill points. Capture an objective or disarm or defend an objective it'll boost your skill points. If you're playing team deathmatch, then yes your K/D will greatly influence your skill points. Etc.. I also think things like savior kills, revenge kills, tier 1 kills etc... end up effecting your skill points as well as if a level 1 person kills you when you are at level 15... and such... Its crazy and those guys with skill points over 5000 are NUTS! Glad that's not a trophy... very few people would ever platinum if that were the case!

Crippldogg Posted October 22, 2010 Share Posted October 22, 2010 Yes, it's based on objectives, ribbons, and what not. Camping to a 24-0 K/D doesn't get you skill points. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Catscan93 Posted October 22, 2010 Share Posted October 22, 2010 I'll never understand the skill points....the one that goes up and down is apparently different from the one that people see online, as that is constantly increasing. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
PS4Trophies Wozamil Posted October 22, 2010 Share Posted October 22, 2010 It's mostly where you are on the leaderboard. All the things you do in the match affects that. I've never lost points while in the top four positions on the leaderboard for my team Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Valgrum Posted October 22, 2010 Share Posted October 22, 2010 Yes, it's based on objectives, ribbons, and what not. Camping to a 24-0 K/D doesn't get you skill points. Yes, I was wondering when ever I did really well, I'd even lose some Points.... They are a Waste of space on the Leaderboards. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
xX_shoemaker_Xx Posted October 22, 2010 Author Share Posted October 22, 2010 okay, so i've come to the conclusion that the skill points are useless.. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Rawra Posted October 23, 2010 Share Posted October 23, 2010 It's basically there for the team players, if your playing an objective game then you'll gain more SP's by capturing flags, setting/defending charges etc. I got a lot of mine during my 2hr in TDM, around +100-200 a round, so basically just play whatever mode suits your play to increase ranking on leaderboard.

Yeah I'm on around 2500 skill points and all I really play is Sector Control and I don't camp. I cap flags. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
mattybell2117 Posted October 23, 2010 Share Posted October 23, 2010 I guarantee if you go 27-0 you will gain skill. Likely +10 which is completely disproportional to what you lose but I call bullshit on the 27-0 and -skill. I've taken pictures of my scores though where I've gone 7-9 and went + and one where I went 15-2 and got -4 but I've got some insane skills where I went 15-14 and lost like 60 skill points. I hover around 2200-2300 skill points but still, the skill system is majorly flawed Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

dz06lt Posted October 23, 2010 Share Posted October 23, 2010 No it really cant be about objectives becuase ive played more than a few objective raid games i was the first to set the bomb it explodes the secondary objective goes the same time i have 0/0 but end up #1 on the scoreboard and still dont get a single skill point increase, i have had negative K/D and finished in the top 3 and got points finished in outside the top 6 with a positive K/D and not gotten any its so fucked up i wish they would just get rid of it.

Johnny Bananas Posted October 23, 2010 Share Posted October 23, 2010 Skill points are a joke in this game. I just went 1-10 and captured no flags (joined late) and I still got +12 points. I don't think I've ever gotten a negative score even if I'm dead weight on my team. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
chackijhan Posted October 23, 2010 Share Posted October 23, 2010 no, i was playing an objective based match and was sniping from the back.. so if the other people were correct in that k/d does not count, but match objectives do, then this would make sense You didn't use a single defensive support action or what? If you get 27 kills in a row you should even reach cruise missile if you use defensive actions. And I have never lost skill points when using more than 3 defensive actions, even if it's an objective based game mode or not. Atleast I think so, not totally sure. But anyways, I say that if you get alot of kills in a row and get lots of support actions, you don't lose skill points, even if you don't capture/arm objectives. I may be wrong, but that's my experience anyway. Don't kill me if I'm wrong:o Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Same happened for me earlier today, set charge on objective in 9seconds and other went off shortly after, I got a few kills too but no change in SPs. Might need a certain time before it starts to change though or people joining games for the last 1min~ could get SPs for doing nothing. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
