The story thus far...
It was an intense battle. The enemy had already got its LOLTank destroyed by us (a blaster gunlogi) and decides to call in a rail tank to destroy us. We see the enemy rail tank coming after our blaster tank while its healing so we decide to distract it. So a bunch of us take pot shots at tank and the dumbass tanker tries to shoot us. Meanwhile our tank gets ready to engage the enemy rail and we charge the tank. The rails fires at us and misses (@LOLNerf). The blaster tank starts firing at the rail tank and I do so with my burst AR. The enemy tank gets destroyed and I see that I get the kill for it. 300 WPS for taking potshots at a tank and the person that actually did the damage gets only the assist on it.
This is not the only case; there have been many cases where in I have killed people with literally no health because someone else did most of the job for me a vice versa.
Moral of the story;-
The WP assignment system is bad and broken. It should be designed in such a way that people doing the most amount of work get the most amount of war points.
Why should someone hacking an objective get only 100 WPs when a sniper can easily take pot shots at them?
I dont have a solution and hence we can debate this.

I played just the littlest bit of the Hawken beta, and they do something like that. If I just run in and steal a kill, I only get a few points, and the one who did all the damage gets most of the points (though reduced, since they didn't actually get a kill). I like that system a lot. |

Syndicate does it for Co-Op as well.
If an enemy is worth 50 points, and I deal 90% of the damage, then a teammate finishes the job, I get a 45 point Assist and the other guy gets a 5 point Kill. |

They're working on something for this
Quote:[SUGGESTION] Kills, assists, teamwork, & rewards - reward players based on amount of damage done
Update: Design team will be reviewing the gamplay/rewards mechanic and plan improvements.
