You’re missing my "broken scoring system mechanic" point that I was trying to make.

No one should be able to top a scoreboard by just SOFLAM or spotting alone.

@SeriousJuJu Well, the fake scoring system in 2042 (i.e. the lack of an actual in-game scoring system by all appearances) is a separate problem that the fake scores on the map are highlighting.

I can agree that this shouldn't really be "intended" behavior to sit back and just SOFLAM the whole map, but this seems more the result of the fundamentally flawed design of the game across the board.

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.

  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 have thought that adding physical damage would count as an assist.
    
    I don’t think spotting should count as much.
