I keep seeing the reason for the Portal xp being removed is too many bot farming servers.
Why is it bad to farm bots for attachments, I don't understand.
People are getting unlocks faster? So. Why does anyone care.
People have higher K/D's on their profile? So. Why does anyone care? Stop bots from counting as kills, easy fix.
There is obviously a reason people are bot farming, and THAT seems to be the issue: Insanely long grind to unlock attachments for each weapon, which is how you build guns for competitive play.
Remove the need for bot farming, and you significantly reduce the server issue.
Just removing the bot farms will significantly reduce your player base.
Personally I prefer no bots but I don't think they should be removed. When playing against bots everything should be unlocked as most players who play this enjoy a more casual style, practice, or have time/server constraints so there would be no need to grind to unlock anything. Grinding should be set for multiplayer servers where most players have a competitive spirit or trying to flaunt their proficiency on their play
