Want to encourage assists? Make enemies killed with assists drop more ammo, and decrease ammo drops from non assists. Any way of scoring can be encouraged with a cool, integrated game mechanic instead. Simply take an action that gives you extra points, and reward it through the game mechanics rather than score.
Because super subtle system changes that modify a percentage are the pinnacle of design ;)
You make the changes explicit in the modifiers descriptions.
FULL IMMERSION
It's more immersive than scoring.
