The more damage you did to an enemy with your assist, the more your helped your teammate get the kill, and rewards should be based on how helpful you were to your team. Right now doing 10% of damage to the total HP of the enemy is rewarded just as much as doing 90% of the damage to the enemy's total HP.
Headshots are their own reward; they get you a kill faster, extra WP are not needed. WP should be used to incentivize being helpful to the team, not for rewarding 1337 skills (which already get rewarded anyway since skills get you more kills). Headshot or not, a kill is just a kill, a headshot doesn't help your team in a way a regular kill couldn't (as far as I know). This sets a precedent in which various different types of kills could give different amounts of WP, like melee kills getting more WP, or explosive kills getting less WP, etc. I don't like this, because no matter how you do it, a kill is still a kill. Giving WP for saving a teammate makes sense because it rewards helping your team, but seriously you guys plan on adding extra WP for "revenge" kills? *sighs*
Other than that, good stuff. I would increase the dropship WP percentage, increase the time window to 2 minutes, or give a 15 base WP for the transport.
Couldn't agree more. Anything more than headshot bonuses is pushing it into COD territory. A kill is a kill, and we don't want this game to turn killing into some sort of joke. On top of that, fighting is fast paced in this game, so half the time you won't even know or care if random redberry merc was attacking your friend, on a killstreak, etc.
I'd like the other roles' warpoint systems to be fleshed out instead of the implied CODlike rewards. AV desperately needs it so they don't cry every time they can't kill a tank (though I understand their pain). |

They should let you keep the equipment permanently, but give you less WP than a regular hack. Possibly 20 or 15 WP instead.
