Kills and deaths after the match has ended

I've wanted to discuss this for a long time now...

 

Why are deaths taken into account after the battle is over, yet kills are not?

Kills and Deaths used to be accounted to your profile only, and not for the current ending battle

Guess I'll have to pump some screenshots. But seriously, you can't tell me this hasn't happened to you... Although, not all deaths are accounted for, it's random.

 

Couple of those frustrating things happened today, it shouldn't be a problem to get some screenshots, but I won't die on purpose :P

 

 

EDIT:
Is it written somewhere that this shouldn't happen? Maybe this is a bug?

Think I know what you are trying to say, it's about that extra-death sometimes.

It only happens to me when I'm crit-damaged before match ends and I crash before the result screen

 

 

*No bugs, probably working as intended

I know exactly what youre talking about! One time at the end of a match i did a head on duel, killed the guy... about 20 seconds after that i was playing near the ground... after the match ended i crashed into the ground and as I crashed the player was credited for my death.

It has always been this way, if you shoot up a plane and the game ends as he is going down, you don't get the kill score (Lions and RP), but if he crashes before the game kicks you out, the extra kill is added to your kill score (K/D)

 

I never understood the logic, as once the game announces the winner that should be it,and nothing more should be tracked.

I have noticed this sort of thing in general, but never paid enough attention to gather enough data to make a call on it. There seems to be a random element, but that might have more to do with the hiccup that the match has right before it ends than kill assignment problems; you don't need to get pinched by the end of the match to lose a kill when the guy you shot up crashes, that already happens.

 

Broadly speaking, since the last month or so both my kills and my deaths after the announcement of a mission ending have counted. I haven't paid enough attention to know whether or not all of them are being counted, but I know that at least a few of each were counted on my profile after the fact. It also just can't happen all the time, so going back in to experiment presents some challenges.

From my experience it doesn't change what's on the scoreboard. Also, a couple of days ago I tested it out to see if you had to pay for repair costs if you hit the deck after the round ends, you don't. This is from my experience, however, lots of strange things happen in this game that shouldn't.

It does not count toward the match and you don't have to pay for repair, however, it does count toward the plane's stats in your profile.

Yep, just had another one.

 

What an excellent coding I have to say, it's like they want to piss off their players.

It used to count all the way around but that was a long time ago (ground unit kills too).  I had assumed, since an update notice mentioned it, that it had been fixed completely.  Now that I've read this thread I'll have to keep a closer eye on it.  

 

Just be happy that you don't get stuck in a map for minutes and with other people after it's ended.  I haven't seen that in about a year of two.

Had that happen to me a few weeks ago, so it must still be going on. Although, one long wait after the match ends in a couple months doesn't mean it's a crisis.

 

Some problems just never go away, I guess.

Anything after 'Waiting for results' appears doesn't count, although they will show up in the scoreboard, but when you look at the results, you won't be given the rewards for the hits/kills during that short period of time.

"Waiting for Results" popped up, I was in my little He-51 and a Bf-110 sent a stream at me and critted me, then the screen blanked out and the results table showed up and I saw that I had been killed...Cannot relax until the results table shows up...You still have a tiny window open when "Waiting for Results" shows up where you can be killed...
