Why dont I get the kill if I down the Enemy ?
But I die and another team finish them off ? I always seem to down 2 out of the 3 enemies but die and the last guy is one shot and then another team one shots him and he gets 3 kills, is that fair ? ...
Forum Discussion
@twitchSeriel_FPSi understand that. But the other team shouldnt get 3kills for doing 20 damage or even 100 damage to 1 person because, I still think its fair that I or whoever downs them (even if they are eliminated) should get those kills.
@johnmiceter you are eliminated already so I don't get why you would still get rewards.
- @Daze623 Because they are still essentially pre-death actions.
Many games factor in posthumous kills. Some even give bonuses for it. I feel particularly if you spectate until the fact then it should be rewarded.
Example... you knock someone, ring gets you. Then ring gets them or they bleed out. You deserve that kill.- @1ronKeys thats what i reckon also. I mean your the one that killed them, not the 3rd party team sweeping in to get a couple of shots on 1 weak guy.
- @johnmiceter I dunno i feel whoever kills someone, kills them. Regardless of damage amount.
In this game, it's the knock that counts as the "kill" so to speak if that enemy is eliminated.
Thus i believe if knock, then eliminate, whoever knocked should get the kill. Posthumously by bleed out, ring or killed.
- @1ronKeys yeah except the situation here is them dying to another squad not bleeding out or the ring getting them. When you knock people out they're not dead until you finish them off.
I know originally i asked why i dont get the kills and someone explained it, but still I think it should be changed to either no one gets those kills i knocked, or (like i still believe) the person that knocks them, even (if the squad is eliminated) as long as you keep spectating.
A lot of other shooters do it this way and I believe its the fair way to do it.
- @Daze623 so should the enemy get those kills ? I dont think so. He should get that last kill and thats it.
I did kill those other 2 (because taking all their health off in a fight and they down, means i should get the kill) in my view, i should get those kills or noone at all should get them if they kill one person.

They still had a chance to get up. If your squad is wiped, thats it. They can still get revived or respawned, but you’re out of the picture and thats why you don’t get the credit for kill. You get the credit for downing them in killfeed but thats it.
It’s the same as if you go down, you leave but your team manages to get the win. You also feel that you should get that win in your stats? By the logic that you stated, I think you do even if you might contest my assumption.
The game already recognized that you were out of the picture, whether you are still observing or are in main lobby. @1ronKeys mentioned other games give posthumous kills, but those games are usually games where you respawn where there’s no ‘revive’ mechanics (usually... if they have it, that person bled out or got shot by someone else).
This thread is kinda like the ones saying ‘Why does teammate get the kill if he only did 1 shot while I had to do 99% of the dmg’ but in reverse XD. There ppl or I state ‘Without that 1% you wouldn’t have gotten anything so take it or leave it’
@Koochi-Qno i shouldnt get the win if i leave because im not spectating anymore, ive left the game and that's when the game should finish if i have no more interaction with it.
Im sure warzone credits you the kills in this way if you keep spectating them and no they cant be revived if the last member of their team is dead (even if they are killed by a different team) I still downed the others.
I know Battlefield used to give me the kills for this and im sure cod warzone does (just not certain).
Can anyone confirm then if Apex has fixed it so that 3rd party team only gets 1 kill and not the 3 ? Because it used to be 3 kills for the 3rd party team in that situation.
