Just an idea to promote less played classes

[Soldier . . .]

Add a bonus system for the less played classes.

A rough design, so feel free to add, change and/or comment about it.

Global

Add a 3 step bonus globally.
Based on time played per class.

1. below 95%: 5 to 10% extra time or 5 extra points to there abilities.
2. below 90%: 10 extra points per kill.
3. below 85%: 5 to 10% extra time or 5 extra points to there abilities.
   

Code:

ArmoredTimePlayed  x NumberOfClasses x 100% / TotalTimePlayed
MedicTimePlayed    x NumberOfClasses x 100% / TotalTimePlayed
EngineerTimePlayed x NumberOfClasses x 100% / TotalTimePlayed
SoldierTimePlayed  x NumberOfClasses x 100% / TotalTimePlayed
ScoutTimePlayed    x NumberOfClasses x 100% / TotalTimePlayed
HeavyTimePlayed    x NumberOfClasses x 100% / TotalTimePlayed

example:

Code:

Armored:  6453 x 7 x 100% / 21131 = 213%   => no bonus

Thanks for the Idea, we will consider these changes for our upcoming update.
We're trying to not make it too complex to understand the new skill system, we might not implement it as described but modify it a little.
