"The primary goal is survival but the most fun aspect is fighting. Fighting in no way aids survival and simply surviving isn't fun. Who wants to play a game that isn't fun? Who wants to play using a losing tactic?"
This could be solved very fast.
Now you only get points if you don't fight and survive till the top 9.
They could leave that as it is, and only add that you also get points when you kill someone. So both player bases would be happy.
The ones who like to fight from the gecko, and the others who don't.
Unfortunately online gaming has always will be and will always be toxic.
I think not getting a score if you didn’t, say, cause damage to an opponent before you hit top 10 would only prove how badly Apex, and Battle Royake fames, are set up for that.
What people actually want is something more like Vontrol, or Arenas, or TDM. I don’t think they actually want a BR format even if they say they do. And I’ve been on this for a while.
Battle Royales are not good games for competition.
