But I think ParadiceCity9 already understands how the terminator medal currently works.
And because of that he is suggesting that it should be changed to count individual eliminations in terminator games: The nature of terminator games is that each individual elimination scores points and hence is a desired achievement - regardless of whether the player doing the eliminating is the 'winner' in the usual sense - and it is these achievements that should count towards the terminator medal.
In all other game types only the winner in the usual sense scores points and so it is quite right that, for all other game types, eliminations are counted as unique defeats and hence medals are awarded as they are.
For the terminator medal to have any real meaning (rather than just being an alternate standard medal) I think that individual eliminations must be counted as ParadiceCity9 suggests.
I am in agreement especially with the underlined part
Right, this would work out way better. Currently, the way you get medals is exactly like standard games. There is no point in playing the terminator game the way terminator games are supposed to be played, because you only get kills counted towards the medal if you win it like a standard game. Definatly yes.
