I would like to see battlelog gone at last,and have an actual in-game server browser in BF1 First of all,battlelog even after 5 years is still buggy as hell,on a high end PC with all browsers.Message errors dissapearing,joining server button doing nothing,having to restart origin for battlelog to register that game is closed,incompatibility issues,reconnect button-\>server not found ,and many other problems Not to mention having to open origin to open the browser to open battlelog to open the game and connect Secondly,battlelog makes the game a k/d and general stat e-peen fest.Everyone is obsessed with his stats pages,comparing with others and bashing people.This has killed teamplay.TF2 and Overwatch have completely removed K/D and this COD stat obsession fad ,and i have not seen more teamplay than those in public servers.This means something.Seeing your own stats to improve is fine.Seeing other’s stats has absolutely no purpose except leading to flaming and worse gameplay Just my 2 cents. ---

I agree with a de-emphasis on stats. “Not to mention having to open origin to open the browser to open battlelog to open the game and connect” Another cumbersome Origin / Bf4 thing is having to install the base game, and all the DLC separately, which really makes little sense, when a prompt could be shown to choose whether to install just one DLC, or all of them. I’m guessing that for most people, installing the game, for which they have Premium, would be expected to install all the content they have for it, as well - just as is what happens when installing any Steam game. But with Origin and Battlelog, each piece requires its own installation process, and trying to join a server that uses multiple DLCs will ask for one DLC to be installed before joining the server, then when that DLC is installed and there’s an attempt to join the server, it will then ask for another DLC that it has a map for on its server… and then it will do the same thing after that DLC is installed, and an attempt to join the server is made. It’s a unorganzied and inefficient process. ---

Please let the battlelog as it is today stay. - It’s an awesome way to interact with the game while not playing the game. - It has been very stable since the plugin was dropped. - It can be update with 0-day patches if there is a problem. (if the server browser is just ingame. you have to wait until next update.) - I like having the battlelog on my second screen watching a battle report after each game. Please dice, keep the webbased battlelog! ---

I like Battlelog, at least for stats. The stats are completely optional for people to look into as much as they’d like, and for a large amount of players (like myself) who enjoy the stats side of the Battlefield it’s pretty much perfectly executed. The idea Battlelog, or the visibility of statistics in any way, effects teamplay is both completely unfounded and unsupported. ---

I like the personal stats features of Battleog, but I don’t really like launching the game through Battlelog, because it takes so long to load a level. And if changing servers, then it takes a long time for Battlelog to first exit the game, and then long again to load another game. So, Battlelog seems to make getting in and out of the game, and changing servers, take a lot longer than if having an in-game server browser. However, I really like the full server-details pages that Battlelog gives, so maybe an offline stats and server page could exist, but an in-game server browser would probably be faster and more gamer-friendly than Battlelog. There have been times where I just didn’t play Bf4, rather than deal with how long Battlelog takes to transition between launching, quitting, and changing games. ---

They are not optional.The stats are mandatory.I am forced to show my stats to everyone,and i am forced to have everything recorded,and use a completely impractical and nonsensical way of launching the game Also statistics do affect teamplay,and that’s why every game that wants to have actual teamplay disables it.It’s simple logic.If people can see your kills,and you are a stat- (most are),you will put teamplay aside and try to appear better to others.When you could maybe die 2 times to take out that tank that is reking your team,you might just choose to avoid it ,afraid of the +2 to your death counter that everyone will see ---

Also I don’t want to be rude but I think you, and to be fair a lot of people, overestimate how many people review your stats. And those who do review the stats of other players tend to be the hardcore Battlefield players who know better than to judge people on singular figures like KD. Which leads me to my last point. You seem to be arguing against the idea of a KD here rather than general stats which this thread is about, you’re forgetting that Battlelog also records SPM and Win Ratio which are more heavily team-based statistics. Essentially, if you think that anyone on Battlelog is impressed with just a high KD, or if anyone will think you’re a terrible player based solely on that statistic, then you’re being a little unrealistic. ---

You’re thinking of a utopia here.Ideally everyone would just mind his own business and enjoy his game But since this is the real world,90% of forum discussions are “your kd does that,your spm is that,my argument is better because your score is lower” and other mindless stat bashing Why does the end of each conquest round show K/D and not flags captured? Why in a heavy tank map,the engineer who destroys 15 tanks but dies 10 times in a process is not showed anywhere? Maybe some stats make sense to have,but that’s not k/d ,spm,skill or whatnot.All of these are easily padded in specific maps,and only lead to flaming Still,maybe they should keep the option for recording them.But there should also be an option to NOT show anything,not be “social” (sharing your game stats is not “social”,more like the opposite),and NOT publicly display K/D I know for one that if my k/d didn’t show i would take risks i wouldn’t take now. ---

I think the main problem here then is rather the fact that the forum community has a bad mentality, rather than Battlelog. Although it would obviously reduce the issue through removing statistics, I personally don’t think that’s a way that you should ever approach a problem - only perhaps as a last resort. I haven’t played 3 or 4 for some time now so I can’t remember how the end game screen looks, but in Hardline your KD isn’t displayed at the end of a game of Conquest unless you specifically work it out yourself. Also in defence of the current system, the engineer you used as an example would most likely have a relatively high score due to his abilities and thus he would appear higher on the leaderboard than some players who may have had a better KD but not as useful in the game. The main point of this thread however is Battlelog, you’ve started another perfectly valid discussion about end-of-game scoreboarding but it’s not the main purpose of this current discussion so I don’t want us to go off on a tangent here. ---
