We should count damage dealt in the CSR formula. Here is the logic behind this. If any of you play ranked, here is a common scenario:
- A 2v2 fight emerges
- You manage to kill 1 enemy, and wound the other
- Your teammate stares at you during this fight, contemplating his life choices, debating on the ethics of shooting the enemies that are currently shooting at you
- You die
- Your teammate sees your corpse and suddenly remembers this is a first person SHOOTER, and shoots the remaining weakened enemy
- You now have a 1/1 K/D, no assist because you only managed to land one shot against the remaining enemy. Your teammate has a 1/0 K/D
- Your teammate will lose less CSR for that than you will, even though you did more, and despite him not actually helping the whole game
Does this make sense? I usually manage to get assists for these situations, but as with many things is this game, they don’t register most of the time.
