I don't understand the issue...

why do you lose over 30 points every time you die.

The delta in points is calculated in part using the differential of the two interacting players' point totals. Your points are a lot higher than the guy who killed you. Loss is capped at 40. It means you need to maintain a high K ratio to maintain a high total.

why is it this way

 

[Noodl]

A purely additive point system is flawed by design, and doesn't measure skill. An additive system is more a measure of time played, or how much one games the system by spamming certain actions. An Elo system will balance players' positions relative to how they consistently perform when compared to other players who have had time to be placed by the system, since a high K;D ratio, plus bonuses, will keep you in net positive points.
