    Does anyone else have the bug where when you kill a scout with silenced weapon; your kill doesnt register?
    Eg:

    nf- Rifleman
    be- scout with the silence weapon skill

    nf kills be; Kill doesnt show

    Is this a feature or a bug?

    It's a feature :) The kill still registers, it just doesn't show in the kill bit :)

    It's funny because I've gotten several complaints recently about it. I think someone just decided to use it a lot, and it's confusing them all.

    Silence is always the second skill I get after hidden. It's great for the assault scout combo cause you can pick off enemies in their base without other enemies knowing.

    you will still receive the message "1 point for killing enemy"
    Thats the only way you can know if you've killed him

    The death messages are masked too as to keep the enemy team at least slightly in the dark as to if they eliminated the sneaky threat or not.

    I wish you could drop something on scouts as a comm, like how I would drop a supply crates & jeeps on top of enemy snipers on BF2 :p.
