Can we remove stats completely?

I would find the game more enjoyable without stats being able to be looked up. Or do like BC2 did and make it visible only to you. When I play BF4 I PTFO and whatnot but I like having decent stats and it sometimes keeps me from doing what I want to in the game. Also would make less of a incentive for our Golmud base camping aa drivers and carier snipers etc, just trying to pad stats. I feel like more people would play as a team and would be less afraid of dying and would PTFO more because of it. There would still be potatoes in the game but less people would be as potatoey.

Hard to take you seriously when you created this thread:

No, we need to be able to tell who the baddies are so we know when to immediately ignore their whiny opinions.

Sure, why not?
Im sure the guys who actually care about such things wouldn’t be down with that though.

I’m the guy who gets pissed if we lose no matter if I crushed it, so winning is of the utmost importance.

With that said I still like to check out my stats every now and again to track my improvement or assess a weak area of my game.

so change the game for everyone because YOU cannot separate your own fun from your stats?

“yes, we’ can” (c) in fact, we’re - should

Why should you care about your stats?

So maybe you should not look at your stats at the end of the game…Stats are an important part of everything. It separates the good players from the bad.

They be very interesting. It’s good to know where you are struggling.

One thing they aren’t good for is invalidating opinions.

Nonsense. Stats help see where a person is coming from and can reveal any “hidden agendas” when people are asking for nerfs and buffs.

That does not invalidate an opinion. It might give the opinion more context, but it doesn’t invalidate what they might’ve said.

Someone can’t be wrong about their opinion…

Wrong =/= invalid

If somebody has never played BF4 before but proposes to nerf BF4 tanks, his opinion on tanks is completely invalid.

In your opinion. The forum guidelines don’t agree.

Who are you to attempt to invalidate another’s interaction with the devs? Nobody, frankly. That’s the devs job, not yours, they want ALL FEEDBACK.

Not just ultra biased veterans crying about spread and glint.

Wtf? Calm down.
So you have never replied saying you disagree with an idea on this forum?

Show me where on the forum guidelines it says I cant reply to what I think is a bad idea.

Replying to any idea is also feedback.

Attempting to invalidate others opinions with stat shaming will get you banned.

I disagree with this thread. But that my opinion doesn’t change the validity of the post.

I’m plenty calm, unnecessary negativity is unnecessary.

So how is pointing out somebody has never played the game “stat shaming”?
Even if the guy in question only had 1 monute in tanks, pointing out he had only 1 minute in tanks is not shaming. Its telling the truth.

Seriously, get off your high horse.

You are clearly not calm or you would be comprehending what i’m saying far more successfully.
I disagreed with you and all of a sudden i’m breaking ToS lmao.

No. That’s not what I said. What I said is true.

How often do you look at others stats? How often have they never played the game?

An opinion is not derived exclusively from playing one game too much. I had a bad opinion of the aim assist in bf as a previous cod player, from the get go. It took me no time to form this opinion, I immediately hated bf4 snap AA. I still feel the exact same way after ~900 hrs.

Does that make my opinion less meaningful? No.

Who cares if someone who doesn’t tank thinks tanks are too strong? The devs can see stats too, they don’t need your “help” invalidating less informed opinions.

Where did these flocks of nutbags come from?

Remove scoreboard K/D?
Remove stats all together?

Get lost.

In my opinion, the OP is just debating for the sake of debating, given his creating another thread which opposes the idea proposed in this one.
