I would think taking guns off the field that could be shot at my team and potentiall kill them would reward me more points but no the guy who love tapped more players than me gets a higher match score WHY!?

Could you post both the Mission Summary Team Stats Table and the Mission Summary Player Stats Table, please?

Without seeing both of those tables, it is impossible to judge your performance relative to the other players. Any serious discussion about your performance in that game is not possible without those tables.

Thank you.

So a Spider 5D, possibly equipped 2*ERLL, out did a Kodiak 5 (how was it equipped and long range/sniper type or mid/close range?) in Matchscore, but not damage, thus less damage (which approx 46% dmg converted to MS). Overall, the spider likely had a greater impact. Yes, you got the "final" kill shot but what was the KMDD/Solo/Savior kills? Should show the Player Stats. It would be interesting to see how many MS triggers that Spider had.

• 570 MS vs 501 MS
  
• 700 dmg (322 MS) vs 822 dmg (378 MS)
  
• 2 kills vs 6 kills
  
• 9 Assist vs 2 Assists (only a point or two lower than kills)
  
• Dmg applied to 11 Reds vs 8 Reds
  
• KMDD, Solo Kills, Savior unknown number but also generate MS points
  
• Tons of other triggers that increase or lower MS points (team dmg/kills)

8 Er mediums and 2 heavy large.

i'd understand if there's some sort of MS multiplier based on weight of mech used but still i feel like i should have gotten closer to him in terms of match score. I would think a killing blow would be worth more than a Kill assist while a kill assist is just hitting someone and killing blow is the last shot that caused the destruction of the mech, that is still taking guns off the field that could potentially destroy the rest of my team leaving the enemy team less of a threat, though TBH the last kill i got was a longbow with all Lrms who for some reason decided to stick in my face...

I see nothing interesting here: You spammed some damage, but you managed to achieve just one solo kill on your own. Okay, you got some killing blows, but I guess that other players contributed to opening those enemy 'Mechs CTs.

You did only a small number of extra activities.

I see no problem here. Everything works as designed.

P.S. That Thunderbolt and that Spider did some good work and I think that they deserve their MS, especially if I consider that they are much lighter than the 100-ton ClanTech Kodiak of yours.

And after spectating a Spider 5D, it may have been running 3xLPPC, which means was diss out 16.5dmg per pull. And damage counted is not simply direct damage but also component damage from crits, ammo damage. The likely reason a kill shot does not earn globs of points is simply that to trigger that means the the player destroyed the last health point needed to take it down. If the player did more on a particular mech, it would be generated in the other triggers such as the KMDD, Solo, Savior, etc.

What would you say about the Spider if it had 4 KMDD, one Solo/Savior kills? Too bad the Team Stats do not show a few more stats, including damage taken, even at death. And if ya think about it, the field practically ignored you, simply based on the amount of damage that Kodiak had taken, considering its size.

And the Kodiak 5 on the Reds, it had a 491 MS vs ya 501 MS, with 2Kill and 5Assists and 840 dmg (386 MS). If it had been a tie, the red Kodiak final match score likely would have be higher than yours. Simply trying to put things into perspective. Damage is king, since damage is the only way to reduce the Healthpoints to zero in one or more sections of the Internal structure. Rear shot to 5 RCT armor then that internal structure while the mech may still have 100+ FCT left.
