As I am too lazy to search if someone previously suggested this, Im starting my own.
I always seem somewhat annoyed by urt's killfeed. Right now there are three options,
you can either:

-turn it off
-turn it on w/o damage = You were hit in the kevlar by [clantag]Name2
[clantag]Name1 managed to catch the shiny bullet of [clantag]Name2's remington Sr8. NEEP NEEP!
-turn it on with damage = You were hit in the kevlar by [clantag]Name2 for 100%
[clantag]Name1 managed to catch the shiny bullet of [clantag]Name2's remington Sr8. NEEP NEEP!

The text "managed to catch the shiny bullet NEEPNEEP" is somewhat funny, but can be very spammy filling up the killfeed with +2 lines (depends on lenght of players names). The option we're kinda lacking now is a simple:

-You were hit in the kevlar by [clantag]Name2 for 100%
[clantag]Name2 killed [clantag]Name1

and maybe then there should be an option which would include weapon information like this:

-You were hit in the kevlar by [clantag]Name2 for 100%
[clantag]Name2 killed [clantag]Name1 with his/her Remington Sr8


I have to deal with this problem every clanwar I play. Especially in for example a camping position I find myself concentrating on the killfeed alot to find out who kills who and if I should jump in. I'm not sure how many,but I know you can add more lines in the killfeed but I dont want my screen to fill up with text if I play a match.

Besides, for movies I want to keep the fillfeed in, I dont see the point of not showing who you kill if you want to show off your skills (In my opinion ofcourse). But I also hate to leave the killfeed in if your kill doesn't fit in cause someone else got killed right afterwards.

I think the funny text should really stay in the game, I had fun finding out what possibilities were out there, but I think it should be made as an option. This game is just really lacking a more simple way of showing who kills who with what weapon.

I dont see problem implenting this :P but let me modify it something like this

(red)Player1 lr300 (blue)player2

Takes less space

Also quake live used this and it was first killer and weapon >icon< on the midle and last died player but i think its not possible on urban terror.

It's a good idea. Many players suggested this idea lot of times.

the color tags ^1 get counted in this messages and forcing line breaks this should get fixed in the code since this ^1 characters are not visible to players.

If you want to be 'pro logistical' go

-> LR300 Kevlar Vest 44%
-> LR300 Right Leg 17%
<- SR8 Left Hand 50% <Name>

But dev team are gonna hate it for being too 'hard numbers' and no love.
