I like the points system. It makes you choose your attachments based on play style and forces you to compromise. I wouldn't like to see a maxed-out LMG with 200 round belt, max hip fire attachments, max recoil attachments, and a thermal sight, for example. Points prevent that from happening.
If there was no points system, and you could max out your gun in every competing direction, it would make it even more unfair for players who hadn't yet had all the unlocks versus players who did. At least now, unlocks require you to decide and compromise and give a more balanced competition.
Ty_Ger07 That “fair” argument doesn’t hold up. The points system doesn’t belong in Battlefield it’s a lazy excuse for balance that ends up punishing players who actually put time into the game. If someone hasn’t unlocked attachments yet, that’s on them. Earn it like the rest of us. And your “maxed-out LMG” example isn’t the issue proper weapon tuning and testing should handle that, not some system that limits players. Battlefield’s supposed to be about realism not restrictive mechanics that make every gun feel identical or broken.
