Kills not counting in a PvP queue match?!

So we had an interesting match in the Team Arena queue last night. the match went 20-0 and 5 of our kills where not counted.

Here is the leaderboard link to the match: http://hilbertguide.com/leaderboard/encounter.php?id=11144

Here is a short youtube vid of what we saw: https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=4vCFSjJrs1k

as you can see we racked up 20 kills in a queued match and only got credited with 15... from the video you can clearly see: "Player X was defeated by Player Y" popping up after a kill but the kill count not increasing.

What's going on here?!

    Well, not a news jena. There is something wrong that involves a kill on a 0 crew ship or under certain random situations, like the old one when you used to kill a "web-mined" target, kill didnt count at all.
    I don't know if someone is aware of how it actually works.

    lower the cheese amount.If your target lags really bad it wont send the "hey I just popped" info to the server.Thats why sometimes the kills you get by vaping someone dont count.

    thats seems to be the thing. its like the game decides that kills was such cheese BS im not even counting it.

    This happens on ground as well actually. Haven't really tried to replicate it but it seems sometimes damage from abilities lose ownership and then the kill isn't counted.

    kills not be counted?

    Hmm I like that if that was towards OP lazy A2B FAW builds. There is our fix, if you use A2B in pvp you can not get a kill credit!!! easy fix


    Stop the A2B Fanboys

    quoted poster was too lazy to notice that OP wasn't running A2B.

    who runs a2b on a dromias anyway? that's so fail.

    There is another problem with BoP/T'Varo Torpboat. While it there still counts as a team kill, it does not count as a personal kill quite often. Even if you dealt the most damage upon this target.

    Recognized the OP problem quite often as well. Annoying in close matches.

    This has been going on for a long time. I wish crypticfrost would pop in and say, "issue verified for fixing".

    FYI, this should be in the gameplay bugs section, not here.

    i think you nailed the problem on the head, those 5 kills where never counted as personal kills. i.e.: Dez and I should have both had 20 kills each at the end of that match but we only got 15 each.

    this happens alot in ground pvp from time to time as well, you can also end up with alot of other odd scores matches with less kills/deaths then needed to complete yet it completes anyway the score board just displays it all wrong its been like this months well years? just another working as intended thing :)

    Oh i love the short movie, reminds me of those people who cry about the chance that their OP A2B builds may be nerfed

    its been around for a while, I've seen it in close matches and blowouts....

    PvP is rather down low on the Dev's "To-Do List" and I think it always has been?

    Usually if the match is arranged both team agree the kill was there in the first place even if the game doesn't count it.

    gotta be more annoying when you run into cheese teams whatever they are these days and you get 1 kill on them but it doesn't count....I want that kill against that cheese eatin "I wanna win no matter what" player, kick him off his crutches and laugh....

    And I don't count A2B as cheese, I've 1v1'd many A2B ships and given them a lesson they'll never forget in "Timing"...

    The best is when you see known sci/gankers in-game come to the forums to complain about others being sci/gankers... It wasn't cheese when they were getting kills, but because they died, comments such as 'praise cheesus' are made. lolz
