Back then when 5k was good.

Other than to sponsor friends or to bounty other people, points already are useless. They only show that you can get lots of kills without dying. Wins are where it's at. Bountying doesn't need to be nerfed.

Having fun > wins > points :3

Wins mean more?

Wins = number

Points = number

I fail to see the difference.

Your number of wins show you can actually win a game. This takes effort and skill.

Your number of points shows you can kill players with lots of points. Like gcb said, he lost 1300 from disconnecting, anyone who could even punch him would get his points without any actual effort put in or skill required.

I agree with you... As much as I love the new update, it does annoy me that getting a lot of points has never been easier. Last night someone set a bounty of 6000 on me. I allowed my friend to kill me and he went up to 9k in one game. It's a shame that the 4k points I have at the moment is nothing compared to the 15 or so K people have thanks to bountying right now. :/

Like I managed to get 6k 2 weeks ago and I was really pleased as I had achieved something but now that's far too easy.

I don't think he meant the difference in how you obtain and the value of points and wins but that they are both just... numbers, you could go deeper and say just binary... only of slight phyiscal value.

I honestly think that people shouldn't care about points. Play to win, save a few points so you can help your friends if you are spectating them. Set bounties on people so that you can be a deciding factor in a game. Yesterday I was playing with Captain Sours and someone wanted to split up our team so they bountied 700 points on him.

Points affect the game but in all honesty I only see them as proof that you are killing people who already have loads of points. Again, wins are where it's at

They're worth sentimental value. All of those hours and days and weeks spent training and playing, bettering yourself at the game. Wins show that your hard work is going somewhere. Points don't have the same affect. On my friends account I played a few rounds and got him from 80 points to around 1300 points, and it was too easy. Winning however isn't as simple.

Sometimes I see people with 2000 points now but when /records they have like 0 wins

I disagree.
For someone like me, say the top 300 players who have 300+ wins, I find they don't matter. Sure, some people are competing on the leader boards but to me, points are an indication of how well I've been playing and it's nice to have some kind of goal. Wins are fun, but I prefer points.

Points are also more to do with how good you are at pvp, not the actual survival games.
