Are Points Really All or Nothing?

Do you get points (not perks) for putting a single round in an enemy's plane, vehicle, ship, or building?  Or, do you only get points if you kill, assist in killing, or destroy that plane, vehicle, ship, or building?

Others and I have complained about an enemy vehicle ending flight on your own field after you got them smoking and not getting any kill, assist, or perks for it.  (To me, they are surrendering and are captured and you should get a kill/assist credit for it.)  There are also some complaints about enemy vehicles on their own fields ending flight after being damaged and not having any perk points awarded for the damage.

If you do get points for putting rounds in the enemy, please post the points the way you do the perk points from the last mission.  I have been using the perk points to determine if I accomplished anything during the flight and; if I get zero perks for smoking someone, I feel cheated.

You don't get any perk points for assists.

You get points but not perks. Go to the CT arena and shoot a few rounds inot a town but don't destry a bldg. Now check your CT points and you will see that you got some.


Perks are only awarded for kills. I agree that if you dammage a gv or aircraft and it has to ditch, regardless of who's base is closer, you should get a kill. However I am all for the getting a landing and no kill awarded to enemy when you either land on your field or their field.

You get points for ANY damage inflicted, with a bonus for kills and a smaller one for assists.

Well, it is good to know your getting some points for damage.

I would still like to see HT display the points earned for a flight/mission so you can see that you earned something when you don't get any perks.

Thanks for the info.
