    Random idea, but maybe reward players for getting a kill streak with credits. For every kill starting at 6, you gain +1 more credit. Total of 3 credits earned per kill until your kill streak ends.

    A discussion took place in the CTF Community Discord about a month ago about the possibility of gaining more credits for each additional kill you get after six kills. At first I was indifferent about the suggestion, but after thinking about it more deeply, I am against this idea for two simple reasons:

    1. It would encourage kill farming, which would, by extension, hurt newer players. Currently, most regular CTF players are truced with a good amount of other regulars in the community. This means that newer, less-experienced players are being killed already, and providing an incentive to go on killstreaks would indirectly prompt the targeting of newer players.

    2. It would be straying away from what CTF is meant to be. Even though it is very prevalent today, the goal of CTF is not to farm kills in the middle of the map. Ideally, the objective is to capture (or defend) one's flag. I think by rewarding killstreaks, more people would try to maximize the number of kills they get, taking away from the general purpose of CTF.

    I don't really see how a kill streak can help your team more than casual kills, so I don't think it should give more credits. At the end of the game, you benefit your team the same amount if you have 30 kills and 30 deaths as if you have 30 kills and 0 deaths. I would even say that with 30 kills and 30 deaths you probably distract the opponents a lot more (certainly more damage received) and don't require the help of your team because usually, to keep a kill streak, you have to ask for heals / restore and to play a bit too conservative. In my opinion the kill streak is not an objective statistic.

    This is for people that struggle to earn credits from capturing or recovering, but still do work. Yes medic gives out by healing, but I doubt someone would want to play that continuously when they're trying to earn them.

    Like I said before, it's not hard for me. Literally got scout by saving up and since I got it, re-earned about 70k credits already.

    That's the only problem that came in mind. Just an idea if you want to earn a few more. Or you could always just increase the amount you get from other ways if you guys ever plan on changing it. I personally don't mind how it is, but ik other newer players might.

    We are going to have more archers running to spawn to preserve kill streak now.
