Uh, no. No it isn't. It works out pretty well actually. You can have your heavy hitter focused on getting kills and your weaker players focusing more on grabbing crests when they need to. You can coordinate so that when somebody is using a roaming super they can have somebody grabbing crests for them so that they don't have to. You can make sure that you have a teammate with you so that if you die they can grab your crest. It's not a bad gametype, provided you have an actual fireteam and not just a group of randoms.
