DICE and Co created the XP grind problem and people saw portal as a solution.
The fix to is reduce the XP grind by orders of magnitude up to the point where all the attachments, upgrades etc are available.
Also they should imho separate the PvE and PvP STATS like K/D etc
This would drastically cut down the number of servers meant for XP grinds etc.
This is so true.
It's Dice and EA who decided to put weapons, gadgets and specializations behind stupid assignments. Now they're surprised gamers are using any meta to get done with those assignments in order to enjoy the game without thinking about doing 150 headshots from 200+ meters. I'd rather have people grind on bot servers in portal than have 16 snipers on each team on a hill trying to unlock the PSR in normal games. Dice literally forcing players to do everything but play the objectives with these assignments. Let people unlock on bot servers instead of using normal games as a stupid assignment ground and ruining the fun for everyone.
Just wait and you will see the classic "Unlock every weapon dlc for just $20" coming soon. That's the real reason they added those stupid assignments and now wants to stop the unlock x weapon bot servers.
Agree with the XP reduction as ranking in the game is hardly an issue. If everything was just tied to rank you would see a massive drop in bot servers as well.
