IMO, one should get the kill as an assist if you do more then 90% damage. I’ve seen far to often when I do 96% damage for example someone else does the 4% and they get the kill while I’m getting rez’d.
Even if the shoe is on the other foot and I’m the one who finishes the opponent and rez the team mate that team mate should be credited for the kill.
From what I’ve seen those who do 10% or less damage get the whole kill. That is not right and I’ve been on the receiving end of that 10%.
I may be wrong, but it seems to me I get an “Assist Counts as Kill” if someone outside of my squad finishes the person off, but if my squad mates finish them off, I get a squad assist. Does anyone know if this is correct?
I cannot say who got the final kill as I was among both squad and teammates. But I do know I didn’t get it and all it took was 1 bullet. And I do recall at least 1 time I was only among teammates.
Whenever I do the majority of damage and a teammate comes along and finishes them off with one more shot, I get a message on screen saying something along the lines of ‘Assist Count As Kill’.
Part of the problem you’ll see with counts as kills in this game isn’t actually a problem at all. If someone has their heal still as soon as you lay fire on them they can hit heal, rendering your counts as kill not existent because he has started to heal, suppression and more given damage does stop the heal so you may get an assist but will often not get a counts as kill.
