DICE TeamI like the scoreboard..... but why doesn't it show at the end of the round? I thought that was the whole purpose?
Also a relatively minor question on the version number...why is the game not 1.0? Why is this patch 0.3.3?
I'm no engineer or anything, but my understanding of software throughout testing (which I've been doing as an alpha/beta tester for years) is that 0.X indicates pre-release versions of the software that are still incomplete and in testing. 1.X patches are when the software is "shipped", with major version updates increasing to 2.X, 3.X etc. and minor updates being the X.1 or X.1.2
I get that this is technically arbitrary and all to a point but like, it's pretty weird and it makes the jokes about DICE selling the beta version of a game even easier to make.
I have an old broken analog watch in my desk drawer from years ago. The funny thing is that, unlike this game, it looks like it is working right twice a day.

The version number 0.3.3 honestly reflects the state of the product. They could "ship" it with 1.3.3 but that would be dishonest.
I don't expect the client to reach 1.0 until season 1 starts, so please let the developers be honest about the state of their software, and don't make them put a marketing version number on it.
