I Think it you would be cool (now don't hold it against me) if when you bought a turret you should get credit for a kill, even if somebody upgrades it after you or hacks it Say i build a long shot, someone comes along, upgrades it, well thats good. but i'm saddened because i still feel like a i lost some cash. Then it occured to me, what if everyone that helped build the turret got some credit. call it a turret kill (change the other to turret destruction.) A turret kill would be worth 5$ to everyone that upgraded/hacked it. bad idea? good idea?
i don't get kills for turrets that i didn't build on my team when i hack them so i don't know what you guys are talking about unless i just don't pay attention
Somehow someone once mentioned that the Support gets the kill when he hacks, and everyone is assuming that is so.
Definitely... sadly this is not so. I think you steal credit when you hack other people's firebase for bot kills. When someone hacks my longshot to 3.3 I always get credit for the kill.
One time I was building up a long shot, and some other guy sees me and beats me to getting it to level 3 when there were open nubs all around. Kill stealing bastard.
Support doesn't get any money or credit for kills just by hacking someone else's turret. Only the person who paid for the current level of the turret gets this.
But maybe they could get a little retribution too? I mean, they did have to use their slowest recharging skill so that the owner could get more kills instead of using it on their firebase or the opponents turret. Turret assist should definitely happen though. I hate it when I invest so much in a rocket turret, and someone ends up getting the level 3.
I would hate that too, but mostly because i feel that teammate could have spend that 800$ better. I do not really care if people upgrade my turrets, this is a teamwork game. Currently i play as Assassin and Support. As a Support i hardly ever build turrets. As an Assassin i don't really need the $'s, i occasionally will build rocket turrets if i feel they are needed, so if another teammate is happy upgrading that turret and with the kills and $, good for him.
