Bring 'Assist Count as Kill' Back to BF2042

So I am one of those unlucky people that I am in a fight with multiple enemies, manage to take out a few but then there is always one or two that are under 25 HP and what happens? My teammates kill them and I just get an assist... I was the one doing the bigger job and they are the ones who keep the kill meaning that they will progress on their mastery and I wont because of it... I believe that this is a must and should be implemented as soon as possible. It's just not fair that you do all the work for then your teammate to keep your kill when you die and you just get a sad assist. Or also when you are shooting the enemies, lower their HP to 25 or under and a lovely teammate just gets there and steals your kills. It is just not fair and I honestly do get frustrated with this since, as I said I was the one doing the bigger part of the job for a teammate to just yeet my kill. I do know that the game is about teamplay and PTFO but I play for kills too and it is just not fair in my opinion.

(Sorry if I am a bit repetitive but I just typed this while in a game and after it just happened to me.)

@Tank2042Man The question is, who is assisting who. The guy that made the first 99% damage, or the one that made the last 1%.

It’s an FPS. Kills and deaths matter.

What about vehicles. You only get an assist if youre the last to damage it. If borg regens begins before the kill, assist isnt rewarded. It takes 4 hits to destroy most vehicles. If 4 people hit an infantry, dont all 4 get the assist?
IMHO, if youre part of the kill, you should get an assist. That being said, Killing Blow is over rated, unless youre playing the new Apex mode..

If no one would have interfered and stole your kill you would have it. You used the ammo. You got the hits and you get nothing but a bit of xp from a lame assist. It used to be that if you got even 1 point of damage it would count as 1xp per point and if you got over 75% of the damage it would count as kill toward the progression of your weapon and your statistics. This is why snipers and shotguns take extra long to max out. "Boom" 75%+ dmg and before you can get another shot off "Assist!" pops up..... yay.
