Naval kill assists being broken is “working as intended”? What is this madness?

This bug has been rampart for years, but it keeps coming to my attention whenever I try to give Naval a chance…

Could someone explain to me how this is meant to be “working as intended”? You can kill 95% of a ship’s crew… and not even getting an assist is “working as intended”?

An assist typically requires that you deal a significant portion of damage to a target before it gets destroyed, or that you help weaken it enough for another player to finish it off. If you’re taking out most of a crew but not getting credit, it might be because the final blow needs to be dealt by someone else, or perhaps the target wasn’t fully disabled before it was destroyed. In short, developer issue.

Exactly. That’s why I am so amazed that they refused to even take a look and labelled it as “not a bug”, claiming that it’s “working as intended”.

They can change it easily, like in air, significant damage can count as savage damage kill, and you get also the reward not only the one who done the final blow.
