I think we have may attempted to hammer this out before.
Many have this opinion and that is ok. I just don't think it's a big of a problem as you do. Players are going to kill whore with our without stats. They are still going to spawn room camp and farm when they get the chance. Cause hell in allot of cases what the hell else you going to do? Stand on point? Boring!
I also think there are consequences for removing stats. Players will play more suicidal, almost like zombies. I'm not saying a ton of it but just as many players that are currently playing different due to stats being in the game.
I have allot of big time FPS playing friends not interested in PS2 because there is such a lack of results. Stats are results, we need more.
