Why the hell are you looking at your score in NS? I know I never do it. Or rather, never did when I actually played.
Alien :
Kill a marine - 1 point
Build OC,DC,MC or SC - 2 points
Build res tower - 3 points
Build a hive - 8 points
Kill a marine structure - 3 points
Kill marine CC - 5 points
Marines :
Kill an alien - 1 point
Kill alien res tower - 3 points
Kill a hive - 8 points
I dont command but I think the comm gets 2 points for each structure built.
I think building is overwheiged for scoring in the pubs though, any half decent gorge can easily lead the team.
Overall, just don't worry about any of your score stats.

I look at the score so I know who's doing what and how they're doing. You can't run around with guys who aren't listening and running around by themselves getting killed.

I do everything the commander asks. Build all his stuff, move to all his waypoints. I cover my teammates. I'm one of those guys in Counter-strike that rescues all the hostages and plants/defuses all the bombs. <span style='color:white'>Be nice.</span>
And I check the score... and don't give me that BS about never checking your score... you know you do.

What if two or more marines kill a RT or hive? How does the computer know?
So I don't look at scores. <!--emo&:p--><img src='http://www.unknownworlds.com/forums/html//emoticons/tounge.gif' border='0' style='vertical-align:middle' alt='tounge.gif' /><!--endemo-->

Well, whichever marine gets that last hit in gets the points.
MARINE ACTION REWARD ALIEN ACTION REWARD
Killing Skulk 1 Killing Marine 1
Killing Gorge 2 Killing Jetpack Marine 3
Killing Lerk 3 Killing Heavy Armor Marine 4
Killing Fade 4 Killing Sentry Turret 2
Killing Onos 5 Killing Automated Siege Cannon 3
Building Command Chair 5 Building Hive 8
Building Resource Tower 3 Building Resource Chamber 3
Building Other Marine Structure 2 Building Other Alien Structure 2[/font]
Rules for Structures:
Killing a structure is worth the same amount of points as building it.
Points are given to the gorge that placed the structure, regardless of who helped.
The commander gets all points for building, not marines (keeps them at the top of the scoreboard).<!--QuoteEnd--></td></tr></table><div class='postcolor'><!--QuoteEEnd-->
tbh i cant understand people that watch their score, or anyone elses for that matter. unless i'm one of the team's permagorges and we are having a competition of who builds the most =P
Its a team game ffs.. (or its supposed to be)
It seem like everything I kill a skulk in a hive or in marine start I get 2 points... does that hold true, or just my mind playing me?

thank you.. exactly what I was looking for.
Not only killing players of the other team is <b>helping the team</b>. Placing and destroying structures is as well. And killing harder opponents surely is worth more that easier ones.
Gorges usually spend their life building up infrastructure of the alien team, which is probably the most important aspect of <b>helping the team</b>. So does the marine commander. Of course they deserve staying at the top of the scores.
