How does Campaign scoring work?

[Yeshalot]

after like 3 deaths after a couple of kills all of my kills suddenly end up giving me 0 score....

is it a bug? how does scoring work?
is it time related?

I've got to 45k on The package twice now and had my scoring suddenly hit 0 on each kill.

If you take too long to finish the mission, each further kill you get will be zero points.

Ohhhh. I thought it was a limit on enemies killed. Thanks!

Time related, skull related and medal related. As mentioned if you take too long you get nothing, which makes the entire system awful and unfun to me. Par time alone gets you 3x points, which means it's actually easier to hit the par score without any skulls at all since you can go faster. It's best to make sure you can hit par time than it is to add any skulls.

Toss it on heroic and plow through fast enough with enough medals and you can easily smash the par score. It's a bit rough at the end for me. Took me ages to finally nail that section well enough to get it done.

Get as many multikills as possible, headshots or sticks, etc. Don't die that much, I managed to hit par time while still dying a few times though so it's not impossible if you die.

I did throw on a few skulls that are easy to handle like the one to remove the radar and catch. Ended up with 20k more than necessary on heroic and 1 second remaining to hit par time.

edit; Should be noted that each time your time multiplier drops your score slowly decreases as well. It's not an instant drop.

Enable the competitive scoring thing and you can watch it drop. you can bank the score if you finish before it drops down, which I wish I had known prior to it as I had the score but didn't realize that's how it worked so missed it by 20 points even though I had it. :'D
