The importance of competition
It's not only the scoreboard, voip, removal of bots etc that need to be fixed. I think every single aspect of the game is bad. The core gameplay is bad. The weapons, the movement, the veichles and la...

@JudgeeJ2042 is as competitive as any other battlefield game. No one wants to lose a fight in the game.
However you are right about online bots, that is the worst decision Dice ever made and when I start a round and 50% are bots I just switch off mentally and don't try as hard.
@Tank2042Man I guess I can't comment for others, but personally I hard disagree. Mostly everything in 2042 feels completely pointless and I feel that I could care less about the actual outcome of the game due to how unstructured the game is. Noting you do in the game feels as if it's for the greater good of your team. It's all too mindless.
In past BF games, I felt like I was apart of the team. I felt that what I did mattered, but in 2042, it's all about yourself. The game is made to be played selfishly, and without structure in place, no one is to be blamed for playing in such a way.
The game does not incentivize playing for your team, so why should anyone care about the outcome? It's not like winning or losing matters or has any meaning. It's not like I can communicate to the other team and compliment how awesome of a game it was. I can't see a scoreboard to compare and see how well I did for my team as a whole. The whole game makes winning/losing meaningless.

If past Battlefield games weren't meant to be played selfishly, then why were there servers full of people on those games still doing so? All I see on these boards are people making excuses for not wanting to use teamwork in this series just like they have always done. It is too easy to park a tank or a Bolte on a hilltop far away from the objectives and shoot into the crowd to stat pad. The same things that they were doing in Battlefield 1 when the score board was present.
@Skill4Reelstat pad? When 2042 get stats? Infact with the introduction of bots, stats have become irrelevant

There was very little competition and teamwork in random matches with mostly solo players when the stats and score board were both present in previous BF games.
All of the current player behavior that we are seeing in BF2042 was already happening in the older games. Also the most important stat for many which are kills is already there in the game, and as always is the main thing that people play for. Even sacrificing objective control and their team winning the match to easily get them.
If competition really mattered to the people that play this series. Then we would see them in here demanding platoon implementation. People are however complaining about an irrelevant class system instead of a platoon feature that promotes teamwork and competition.
