Scoreboard and broken points system discussion.

Question

To the moderators – Please do not delete.

This could be a Bug, it might be a Technical Issue, but first and foremost it needs Discussion and that’s why it’s posted in this section.

I loaded in halfway through a match that’s in the attached screenshot. When I checked the scoreboard right before the match ended, something seemed odd. Take a look at the screenshot for yourself. Something is very wrong with the game scoring system to allow for that kind of point accumulation for doing nothing. The names in question are blocked out in the screenshot as not to name and shame. The screenshot is meant to bring the scoring system in the game into question, “not the players”.

Is something being exploited, is an in-game mechanic actively broken, is the game scoring differently for PlayStation users, or is what we really need a scoring system rework?

The broken points system also directly correlates to the ridiculous progression system.

For Rao, you need spots, so the best way to T1 with him is to use the SOFLAM. You can T1 in both Rao and the SOFLAM in a few rounds.

I would guess they were probably using a SOFLAM it looks like.

@Ironhead841This. Getting 100+ assists with Soflam isn't too uncommon if that's what the player is focused on. 200 is pretty impressive for a 30 minute match, but far from unreasonable given the number of tickets attackers have.

@OP
They're not "doing nothing", spotting enemies and locking onto vehicles is super beneficial for your team. The problem is that the whole "scoring system" doesn't really exist, it's a half hacked together system not reflective of contribution like previous BF games. So "spots" lead to assists which inflates that score so much.

Topping the scoreboard just using spotting gadgets or other passive means is nothing new. Spotting flares in the last two games were an absolute xp bonanza and a few carefully placed supply crates would earn you loads for doing absolutely nothing.

Yup that's how I did it. SOFLAM and the LATV is a good combo too if you're working on the achievement for getting a vehicle to T1.

Why does the game still let players join a match that's nearly over?

Secure Boot - must be DISABLED. EA must be punished.
