Get rid of scoring entirely..

I personally think that the whole score system should be removed. It detracts from every realistic element that Infiltration has to offer.. soldiers aren't killing because they want to survive, they're doing it for "points" and that isn't really realistic.

I think the scoring system should be replaced with a "medals" system, where depending on your performance you recieve certain medals which are the equivalent of points.

nah, If you want to go as far as removing the scoring, don't give medals either.
Remember, no matter what kind of scoring/nonscoring you have, someone will always want to kill the most people.
I don't think we can get rid of that.

Yeah, but with no scoring there is no way to prove you killed the person... only works if the kill messages is off. Anyway, once EAS comes out, I hope the number of DM games decreases... although a good Dm everyonce in a while is good.
