I just got a force. Still have factory screen protector on it. Does the screen scratch easily? Anyone going without a screen protector
 
I would leave on the factory one for now and pick up something aftermarket. Shattershield is prone to scratches.

Mine did scratch very easily. I was sitting on a concrete step and the phone slid very slowly out of my pocket and landed relatively gently on the concrete face down. I now have 2 small roundish gouges where I'm sure the screen hit small pebbles. I was surprised at the amount of "damage".

However, evidently moto will be selling replacement top layers soon, presumably for around $30 just like they did for the turbo. Installs just like a screen protector. I'm inclined to not put another screen protector on but rather simply replace it with a moto one once available.

I am so glad to hear that I am not alone. I have the Force for about a week now and the screen is all scratched. Does it just peel off?

I will get a glass screen protector right away
 
The shatter shield can be replaced, but I haven't seen that you can order it yet. Many of us knew from last year's model that it would be prudent to put on a glass screen protector, plus to get the glass feel and it's easier and cheaper to replace that than the shatter shield.
 
My lesson was learned from my Turbo 2. When I got the Force I immediately put a screen protector on.
