Players need to understand that BF has all sorts of players.
We have team players, vehicle players, and yes, even the solo players. If someone wants to play solo and only go for kills, that still helps out the team. If someone is racking in 75+ kills, you better believe that team has a much higher chance at winning the overall game. Kills still equals less tickets for the enemy team. Simple as that. If it's for toxicity, this new mentality of hiding everything and giving less options to the player is insane. Silencing people does not help toxicity. Our history as humans has proved this wrong for hundreds of years.
We don't need a scoreboard to know how well we're doing in a match, never did. The people who claim that "it is to protect peoples feeling" are disingenuous. When was the last time you saw the scoreboard being used in a useful way? It's always to try and pretend one has done good when everything went to hell. Your statement "If someone is racking in 75+ kills, you better believe that team has a much higher chance at winning" is false. Most of the time, people with high kills aren't doing anything useful, they camp somewhere and either deprive their team of a player or a vehicle and their winrate wasn't better in previous bf so why would it be now. It encourages people to not teamplay.
It is my hope that by removing the scoreboard we will avoid the people who don't PTFO, the people who CHEAT for the exposure, attention and the drama and the soloist that isn't supporting in any ways. I was as shocked as everyone else when i saw no classic scoreboard in Rising Storm2, which is basically conquest and breakthrough gone realistic hardcore but in the end i realized i didn't need it. The scoreboard is self-serving in a negative way, it can only encourage people to ignore what battlefield is about, capturing objective, support your teammate and win and you don't need a board for that. If you need a scoreboard you have to ask yourself why and how it helps you.
That said. DICE need to greatly expand(finish) the XP scoring system. If teamplay mechanics contributes to win a game then they should be rewarded with XP.

Basically people looked at the scoreboard for mostly 2 things: 1) See their own K/D and adjust gameplay for their own benefit or 2) To start hackusations

Played a round of rush earlier on defence and the team got obliterated. If we had the old scoreboard I could at least make some kind of sense of the situation, if there were a lot of high skilled players on the other team, a blatant hacker maybe? Right now there's just no way to tell is there?
