Idea: End to Stealth Kill spamming?
Just thought i'ed throw the idea around, what if the SK resulted in you losing a point if you died during it? (Edit:Net effect = 0, unless you think it would be better as -1?)
The reason I kept the TK out of the question is due to the fact that it's possible for someone to kill the person you are TKing before you are finished and usually requires a little more work.
Discuss.

good idea as well
Then again, the alien players lose 90% of there kills and will be completly unable to kill anyone after there tail gets nerfed.
The Alchemists Created Immortality... What chance do you have to kill me?
I don't agree with this. If you had to wait until someone was at half health before you could stealth kill the ability to stealth kill would be redundant because you won't actually be able to pull it off.
Usually when someone drops to half health and they're out of combat they will heal themselves. While in combat and you knock them down to half health you may as well try for a trophy kill instead of trying for a "stealh" kill.
(Hyphenated the last 'stealth' because it won't exactly be a stealth kill).
A stealth kill is just that a stealth kill, there shouldn't be any other prequiset other than sneaking up on your intended target.
I do however agree with the original idea of knocking a point off of your score if you get killed during or right after a stealth kill animation.
the idea is not good at all.
if you get spamm stealth killed than because you don't look around and are not watching your environment. and that swhat this game is all about. preadator has to atch out as he is a hunter, alien has to watch out and be careful and sneaky and humans have to watch out because of the other two.
never experienced spann stealth killing myself only on players who didn't care only for things in front of them.
sure it's a good idea, like you said, you need to look around you so you should be punished if you aren't paying attention and your SK just results in your death.
people are actually complainign about the stealth kills too now shall we just jump to the end of this trend and say that the marines aliens and preds shoudl only be able to hug each other and the person who is nicest in a game wins or will there then be threads about hug spamming get a grip stealth kills are the best kills second to trophy kills they get rewarded with more exp for a reason thats the main point of the game. are you all just runniong out of complaints now or something after the pred was confirmed that he isnt faster than the alien at heavy attacks. ffs just stop complaining
I see what you all are getting at but why shouldn't the hunter also be considered the hunted.
Last night I had a trophy kill interrupted by my own stealth-kill death...as far as I noticed I didn't get any points cause my longer animation caused me to die first. The animations are randomly chosen, yes?
Secondly, I think it's a bit unrealistic to expect people to be tracking a human in thermal vision, trying to sneak up behind him in a game in which people are ALWAYS moving and turning around and such, and keep an eye out for that alien in the corner who is also stalking the marine, or you for that matter but that couldn't really be seen cause, you know, you're in thermal vision.
I think a kill, is a kill, is a kill...
If they should change anything it should be an extra +0.5 point for a 'clean kill'
vs. the standard 1 pt. for a 'caught in the act' kill.
Now if something could be done about that a-hole who ran around shooting the other marines in Predator Hunt last night without any kind of penalty...-that- I'd be onboard with.
