This whole pointfix things does actually make sense and makes the game fair and I respect TT's efforts to defend it.
The problem is that it should have been fixed years ago, now time has passed, peoples perceptions have changed.
5 years ago people would say " why the fuck do you get so many points for shooting a harvy with a ramjet when it does so little damage? Shouldnt Westwood fix that shit? Its not fair!"
The above scenario never was fixed because Westwood is no more. Because it was never fixed, people got used to it and their perception accepted that it was a normal feature of renegade.
The current state of affairs is that now people are actually defending the flaw. Is it even a flaw? To a person who thinks logically and methodically it is, the current system is no doubt a complete flaw!
But the inconvenient truth is Human nature, people are reluctant to change, dont force it on them.....
IMO the time to apply the points fix passed a long time ago, better to leave things the way they are and enjoy what time renegade has left.....Peace out!

So your whole argument is: yes, it's a bug, yes it should have been fixed a long time ago but as it hasn't been, we got used to it so you shouldn't fix it anymore because otherwise people might need to change their well known strategies ever so slightly.
That's a bit like saying: Mugabe is a bad dictator for Zimbabwe, we've known that for a very long time, he shouldn't have had the power all this time but now that we get the possibility to elect someone else, we shouldn't do so because we're used to Mugabe being bad now.

How do you think the people in Zimbabwe live?

I don't see where you're going with this, but we're going off topic now.

They have put plenty of stress on how this tiny pointsfix will make NEGLIGIBLE changes to your actual gameplay.

so wat, if its "negligible" then why bother putting it in? lol obviously there's something there that is going to be changed a great deal. and living without points fix is not as bad as living under a zimbabwe dictator. that's a really silly thing to say.
it's not worth it.

This is clearly a bug in renegade and should be fixed like any other bug in renegade. Westwood should have fixed it but they did not do so If westwood were still around and making patches for renegade, I am sure they would fix this bug in exactly the same way we did.
As a programmer, I refuse to deliberatly leave a bug unfixed just because some players are used to how the gameplay works with the old broken code. Westwood never intended for you to get so many points for shooting a harvester with a sniper rifle or other small arms.
