I was playing as Gunner on Spunky Cola when something strange happened: I just exploded. Hovering down from a ledge with full health, I landed on top of a friendly Blackjack and humped it a little, before instantly dieing. It says I killed myself, no one on the enemy team received assist points. Has this happened to anyone else before? :|
There are a few attacks that do damage after the attacking player dies that do not properly award the kill.
while we're on the subject: There have been lots of "fishy kills" as well. I will eject someone out of the map. My team didn't shoot him or anything, but I only get an assist. Why?
If a slim or blackjack puts a single shot into a pro on his way out of the arena it goes down as a slim/blackjack kill and you only get an assist. Also, on a ringout if they hit anything horizontally flat before falling of the arena it counts as a suicide and you only get an assist.
Ok then. I would probably like to say that the player should get the kill in that case. If a friendly bot helped damage him, then he should get the kill. However, if the bot was spawned from the game, then I should still get the kill because I did the majority damage to the player AS WELL AS the main cause of his death.
