If I shoot a plane up for 95% damage, disable them and they crash as a result of me disabling them, why is that not credited as a kill, let alone a vehicle destroy.. or even a single point? In other Battlefields it is, why not BFV?

Agree, we need the BF3 system of point-and kill distribution when player causes a crash of vehicle.

I take out a transport in my tank and get no kills because they all just bailed and died to the explosion.

I like slowing down in the Mosquito on Narvik and watch the pilot in the fighter plane behind me hit the cliff…i don’t get points though

Just add it to the list of things DICE seem to get right/fix in one game only for them to remove/break in the next game.

I think I remember them making a change sometime during BF3 where you would get the kill if you did a certain amount of damage to a plane before it crashed.

there is no " disable " in BFV, you can fly a plane with 1HP …

So if someone shoots the wings of an enemy fighter and destroys one wing, do they get the kill? The pilot can still fly the plane. There’s no disable. They can still fly with a slight disadvantage to their turning speed. It’d be a little ridiculous if this was the case.

This is a good point. It’s hard enough to level up planes in this game. A kill assist just like infantry get would fix this. Damaging a plane for 80% and not getting credit for the kill is painful.

There are several tweaks that need to be made but I won’t hold my breath.
