Terminator Points

I'm curious about the points I've lost in a couple of recent games. I've been under the impression that in a terminator game you win/lose points based on who you eliminated/who eliminated you which is based on the formula
(loser's score / winner's score) * 20, up to a maximum of 100 points from each opponent.


In Game 14499968 I eliminated bmcubs87 in round 9 and gained 11 points (according to the Terminator Points Summary.) I was eliminated by Bullet Justice in round 10 and lost 20 points. The summary also says I lost 19 points in round 10. The Points Totals section say I scored -28 points in this game. If I truly lost 39 points when I was eliminated why doesn't it just show that in the summary. Are additional points lost at the end of a terminator game if you are not the winner? If so it should say so in the The Game/Score,Ranking and Medals description menu.

In Game 14273448 I eliminated no one and I was eliminated by sergioms1in round 10 and lost 23 points (again, as indicated by the Terminator Points Summary.) The Summary then goes on to say I lost 21 points in round 10. The Points Totals section says I score -44 points in this games.

Are these points summaries accurate? or is this an update glich? If they are accurate why doesn't it just list the total points lost in one place when you're eliminated? Do the summaries change when the game is archived? I didn't see any of my old games where the points are listed like this.

In terminator the only time you lose points is at the time of death. There should not be additional point loss at game completion. If possible to monitor your score in the scenario, it would be good to try tracking to see if something else is happening and post in bugs.

It could be the summary is bugged and not the way points are handled

The last couple of games seem to have scored properly.

I took a closer look at Game 14499968 and there is no way I should have lost 39 points to Bullet Justice. I don't recall what his rank was before the kill, but I think he was at least Lt., same as me at the time. I'm assuming it had something to do with the new rollout. I'm also assuming there's not going to be an easy way to restore the lost points. That's disappointing, but not really that big of a deal in the long run.

Wow, i just look back and based on the initial summary, Bullet Justice should have scored ~80 points. The final summary says he scored 194 points. Quite a windfall.

It seems, that the points were given twice : the first is like a terminator game and the second is like a standard game :shock:
