Wow, this seems like huge news being overlooked.

"Players will no longer incur a charge for destroying another player’s Weaponized Personal Vehicle, avoiding penalties for those who return fire on (and successfully neutralize) attackers."

 

So basically we won't be charged money or (hopefully) incur any bad sport penalty for destroying weaponized vehicles?

 

I'm surprised I haven't heard people talk about this.    It's been one of the dumbest things for the longest time that if you destroy a vehicle with weapons, that often time is trying to kill you, that you get penalised for it.

Already a massive thread going where we've been discussing all of this. I myself even mentioned this specific change this morning.

I'm guessing this is on console? On PC getting charged for destroying someone else's vehicle hasn't been a thing since maybe 2016...

Hmmm... It says nothing about whether or not you still get BS points.

Bad sport is a penalty. That penalty will now be removed.

I think BS penalty should be removed entirely if the person who blows up another players vehicle has the money to pay the insurance of it.
