Yeah, this one isn't happening with development being stopped, but i still wanna put it out there.
How about a points system where instead of getting 1 point per elim, you got more points for cooler kills, and less for easier ones?
Ex. 75 points for a kill with a laser when the opponent was unarmed, but 275 for 2 kills before touching the ground.
This could also work in waves, although it would need some different things
