Battle awards rework

I just played a match in Berlin that gave me the following awards:

It’s nice! But… I don’t deserve them. I only got those awards because I made a lot of kills with the listed classes. My sniper made a lot of kills… got shot, I picked his gun (a mere g43 scoped mind you) with my At guy, made a lot of kills, got shot, picked the same g43 with my radioman… and did a lot of kills.

SPECIALIST class awards should NOT be awarded the the one making the most kills with it (unless the class is assaulter or mg gunner, it’s their roles)

Instead the awards should be given for usefulness in the specific role, such as:

  • engineer: (most important) ENGI POINTS!!! not kills
  • sniper: long range kills? spotting? assists?
  • AT guy: number of tanks destroyed
  • firebug: most kills BY FLAMETHROWER…
  • infantryman: mix of capping points, support assists and kills?

Those are EXAMPLES, I don’t mean they should necessarily be this, just that class rewards could be given for something other than kills.

I feel doing so would incentive players to… play the class they select correctly. An engineer builds. an AT guy hunt tanks, etc. Right now what is rewarded is simply the most kills, which doesn’t make sense for some classes (other than assaulters and lmg guys)

an issue is that there are already 2 awards that reward for destroy most vehicle (crusher) with tanks being the most likely targets, and long range kills (range master is the name iirc)

You know I listed those as examples to explain my point. I don’t really mind what specifics would be needed, just not ONLY kills for every classes…

I agree with everything but

Ranged master exists, sniper should just be kills.
And this

should be also done for assualters and flamers.

yeah it should be specific activity and not class. also remove zero/low skill awards like Grenade Noob.

The points I exposed are only as examples. It doesn’t really matter what it would be in the end, as long as it’s not only focused about kills for every classes.

but that is the reward i farm the most :rofl:

Not kills but score.

the crusher award is not a battle hero and it counts total tanks killed, best at trooper reward would be awarded to whom who kills the most tanks in one life with one soldier

the first step to self improvement is admitting that you have a problem. i believe in your ability to become a real player and transcend beyond low-life explosive pack spammer.
