Scoring when killing bots
How will this be implemented? Will I get a kill if taking down a bot? If so, this might be exploited and be potentially unfair assuming bots will be easier to kill than human players.

@Jesse165Where did they confirm you can still get XP in Solo? Being able to progress in Solo sounds too good to be true.
Hi @UNL1M1T3D_P0W3R ,
@Jesse165 is fully correct that you can play in full solo mode against the AI bots and that the accumulation of XP and weapon accessories, rankings, unlocks, what have you, will count from there to also be used later in matches on public servers with other players later. EA explained this in one of the first Q&A sessions they hosted at the EA Play Live sessions earlier this month. You have several YouTube videos from that session, so all official and well confirmed.
But true, it opens up for the potential of players boosting and exploiting some functionality bugs that we are bound to have when the game launches with the bots...
@CyberDyme Wow, didn't expect the devs to allow that in Solo. Since Solo won't be an offline feature sadly, I think that's a good compromise. It gives players of all levels of skill to gain XP at their own pace, but yeah the downside is that players can just boost against bots. Ah well, I ain't complaining.
It kind of wets my socks to see players can just boost everything solo but hey, whatever floats your boat, right? It's not like we get double damage or anything after maxing out a weapon so it'd just be a matter of obtaining the cooler skins/gadgets a little faster
I would assume it will be similar to SWBF 2 and indeed, BFV Co op where you get less xp for bots than human enemies.
- @Trokey66 You'd hope so. Also hope bots spawn spread out all over the place instead of in one place.
