Am I the only one confused by the scoreboard?
First I was really confused by the icons and what they really meant. How does a skull mean kills and an X means deaths? It's weird. And honestly, what do those icons add to the game? What's wrong wit...

I don't get the scoreboart either. Why are revives in there? Why are they so much more important than other teamplay actions?
The older scoring systems were way better. 100p for a kill. %-based assists. Fair points for any Team based or objective actions like repairs and stuff. Extra points for following squad orders or support your squad mates.
There was one thing I didn't like in BF4 and later and that's "Assists counts as kill". Kinda dumb when 2 people get a kill count for one dead enemy. But for everything else they had a pretty well working system which got improved over the years and just got thrown out the window for no reason at all.
Just like many other "legacy" features. They clearly don't even want Teamplay anyway with this "Squad" system that is so poor, it could be removed today and nobody would even notice.
@NiCeDiCe90 IMO the assists counts as kill wasn't a bad thing. it only kicked in if you did like 75% of the damage to a player which helped with kill steals. i see both sides of the argument on the assist counts as kill thing though
We were doing Rush mode and due to a shortage of players, there were 4 of us in the defending team and like 4-5 people on the attacking team.
Then we defended good enough that the attackers ragequit and finally after 5 min a new player joined on the enemy side.
Somehow the scoreboard gave him the kills and deaths of the 1 or more of the people who left before that and left the attacker team empty.
So according to the scoreboard he had 8 kills before he even shot at us.
