That is the thing if a player does not leave enough of an impact to warrant someone consciously giving them a commend then that just means in the groups eyes they were not worthy
Ehh, commendations are kinda useless. You cant give them to anyone you pre-form with, even if those are the "worthy" players, which means that if you mostly play dps, and mostly play with friends, you're probably waaaaaaaaay behind on them.

Additionally, theres people who will only give them to certain people; I have a friend that will only give them to dps, because "dps dont get many comms and they might as well have useless points too".


Tying them to anything except the stupid stuff they're already tied to (beyond maybe having like 50 of them to show you've done a few things with actual people) is pretty nonsense.
