    i do i do.

    i'm all for the icon, but awarding a point kinda seems to....easy to farm and it wouldn't make players more effective. not to mention the massive spam every 3 minutes by all the players.

    the ease/difficulty to farm depends on implementation. i would recommend just sending the message out to the closest vehicles. points would be given per player to the driver, but per spawn. ie, you can't just keep dying and reviving and getting in APCs to give points.

    driver would only get points when he has moved the infantry at least 2 or 3 map grid spaces or something.

    Do not give people points for pickups. Can you say farm?

    it would be as effective, or maybe less so than farming revives. If anything, just give a point per trip instead of per person while retaining above criteria

    give the driver points per passenger player minute in his apc

    5 players for 1 minute inside his apc = 5 points or something

    he gets the points when they jump out, when everyone dies inside the driver does not get points

    still exploitable, but even then just being a transport bitch should be about the same effectiveness
