The way the "best vehicle squad" count is unfair

conclusion first: the vehicle with more members will be easier to win this award.

In this game my fighter got:
Best Soldier
Best fighter pilot
2+ other award
2024-10-14 014440
And my attacker got:
Best attacker pilot
Best vehicle squad
2024-10-14 014451
The fighter pilot performs better than either attacker pilot, but due to the vehicle crew score share, the attacker squad’s total score is higher.

This is unfair for vehicles with fewer crew members. Imagine that the P47 and the Ju-188 have the same combat performance, but the JU-188 wins because of the extra four crew assists. The same goes for tank crews.

Therefore, I suggest that the crew assist score should not be included in the awards calculation.


Another glaring flaw: if you compare an “ace” vehicle squad to a “spamming” vehicle squad that has more total points, the “spamming” squad will win, which I don’t think is good either. The calculation method should only take one highest spawn record. To reward those players who are more cost-effective.

I mean what is there really to discuss here?
There is little room for discussion unless you have extensive knowledge how such awards are calculated.

I thought its clear from his statement - though I am not sure if its true.

He is saying a tank with 5 crew members gets the rewards easier because points are given to each member of the vehicle.

So for the same task - the vehicle with the bigger crew gets more points.

Can anyone here confirm or disprove this? Its a bold statement for sure - do the members of the vehicle really all get assist kills for the same target?

Yeah.
The fighter score: 4610
The attacker score: 3282+1535 (got award)
That +1535 from the back gunner just change everything
