I'd like to see accurate assists come around, rather than have 1 person get the kill and others get an assist. In RL the % of the kill was tally'd up by how many people put rounds into the plane i.e. if 2 people did, each person would get half a kill, if 4 people put rounds in, each would get a quarter of a kill and so on and so forth. This I think would be pretty simple to do cause all that would need to happen is instead of giving the kill to 1 person and assists to the rest, the computer allready has the information, so have it 'count' the number of people that would of gotten assists, +1 for the person who woulda got the kill, put it into a fraction ( i.e. 1/4) then change into a percentage, and give a '25% assist on xxx' message.
Of course someone would now reply with 'but then this would stop people from getting the kill on someone and they'd just shoot everyone they saw so they'd get assists' and so to counter that... add a time limit to the amount of time you have to get an assist on a plane, I think 1 minute should be enough. So, if you were blazing through, hittin everyone you could, and then someone shoots down a plane say 1 minute and 2 seconds later, you get nothing on it.
Cause see, this woulda also take away from the 'you stole my kill' thing goin on...
Now that I go back and read it... seems alot more complicated than it really is...
