Personally I feel the scoring system requires an overhaul. A few examples;
- squad ribbon often shows at the bottom of the screen for 500XP. What are the requirements for this and why is there no graphic for it? This doesn’t show with the other ribbons end of round. Give clear squad play rewards & scoring to encourage squads to stick together and PTFO.
- Same again with the support ribbon. What is this? There’s no visual indication.
- There doesn’t seem to be any scoring incentive promoting squad play. No bonuses for squad revives, squad heals, orders followed etc.
- No bonuses for head shot kills, multi kills etc.
- Ribbons in general already feel worn out as there’s so few of them. What about ribbons with say smaller rewards for flag captures, vehicle kills etc. 2042 is missing the scoring and score reward variety of previous battlefield titles.
- No medals and no way to show off more specific elements of your play style such as flag captures or vehicle kills
- No assists for vehicle kills.
- 10XP flat does not encourage vehicle hunting. I also have clue how much damage I’m doing to a vehicle. Reward players who contributed to bringing down a vehicle.
- Finally a bit unrelated to scoring - we need more than one launcher and they need restricting to some kind of class system using specialists in certain groupings. Any player being able to use any weapon I feel is fine. But gadgets need restricting somehow. A full server of players mostly using launchers isn’t fun at all. Find a common ground between the specialist system and the old class system. It is possible to please both groups here. At the moment conquest and breakthrough are just a free for all with zero coordination, flow, or balance.
I understand that battle passes will provide a cosmetic grind however theres not much to do long term for hunting more niche accolades. The scoring system is the hook to keep going and working towards something.
