Over-tolerance
Hello everyone, Does anyone think that games have become over-tolerant recently? I mean DICE/EA removed 'must-have' features from BF2042 just to not offend anyone. For example, the current Scoreboar...
I think it was not made this way because of tolerance, but to fight toxicity and to motivate teamplay. You know, to not give people reasons to shout stuff like: "Your K/D suxx, noob", not make them worry about their kills and deaths too much and rather push them to look for ways how to cooperate. Personally, I have no problem with that.
There will be always players that are toxic. But removing basic features like a classic scoreboard will not remove them, it only removes fun for normal BF players. This is a competition game, competition means competing with other players. Especially when you want to go TDM in portal. Imagine having no scoreboard when playing TDM, People go TDM basically to compete with others and see who got more kills etc. I don't care if I lose to someone, the competition is fun itself. And this slogan that 'everyone is equal', 'you are a team' is just nonsense. This is not how competition games work, not everyone is equal, there will always be noobs or better players. I don't care if I am a noob in the game, it gives me the motivation to get better in the game', now I don't have this feeling, I don't see my stats, I don't see my k/d, I don't see anything... I remember the time when we had Battlelog. It was a masterpiece itself, you could spend time there just exploring how many bullets did you shoot, or with what gun you did the most kills, or what is your HS percentage or longest killstreak. It was a great motivation to get better in this game. I didn't care about other players stats, I was competing with myself, for my personal ego, if I can say that... Now I feel like, there is no competition in the game, everyone is equal and everyone is happy, but this is not how it works.
Oh, yes, Battlelog was great, I especially miss all the medals, etc. from there. 🙂
But I guess the scoreboard is such a popular demand it may get added to the game at some point (I think that at least K/D was hinted for some kind of personal stats). But I see reasons why DICE thought it may worth a shot in the current form.
I see where are you coming from and get your point, but I seem to not understand where is fun in flexing how well you did? The game shows three best players in the game on different roles, doesn't it. I would just want to see my total K/D in the menu somewhere or in the scoreboard. Just mine.
3 best player ? all u see is most assist (guy playing with a drone scouting people all game), most revives and most vehicles destroyed. Not to say those stats are not important but the fact that there is no "most kills" or "most score overall" rewards at the end is so stupid. This woke * is so boring this is painful
@qoLynYeah I see a lot of "most vehicles destroyed" and its always some really low number like 4-6. Is that even a stat that is worth showing off at the end?
It's even weirder when it comes to your squadscore screen. I have had rounds with 50 kills and 100's of assists, but the game highlighted "2 sidearm kills" on the squad endgame screen.
A lot of times it seems like its just picking a completely random stat, instead of looking at what your best stat in was in that round.
