I tend to believe the choice to not have the scoreboard is probably more to discourage toxic behaviour. Its the way the world is going these days and, to me, seems the most likely reason for it. I like to think it will return. In some ways its nice not to have some big mouth idiot whining at his team about how great he is and singling out people for having a poor game, but it masks potential hackers when they used to stick out like a sore thumb when you could see a level 6 with 80 kills on the scoreboard.
Its giving the game a bit of a casual vibe really. If I wanted to sit in spawn with a sniper rifle and get 6 kills in a round, who would really know? Would anyone suggest I wasn't really helping the team? Not saying that's what I do, but everyone can do their own thing and its pretty anonymous. I played a round of rush a few days ago and two guys in my squad were nowhere near the action the whole game, they took themselves right to the very edge of the combat area and had hardly any kills or assists. No idea what they were up to, myself and another guy in the squad questioned it in squad chat but they didn't respond. Its not easy to notice things like this with no general scoreboard. Wouldn't you like some kind of explanation when your team gets steamrolled in a round? As it is I have no real idea what just happened because the visibility just isn't there.

They've taken a lot of fun out of it and I paid full price and thought it was going to be great and it stinks. It is pathetic. Except for Orbital, Discarded and that Korean map with all the cranes the maps are terrible. Terrain color and the colors in general are muted and ugly. There is no team play. Practically no one gives squad orders. There is no cohesion. There is no self promoting by requesting an order. There is no way to motivate someone to give orders.

The scoreboard was very usefu way l to see if your team needed more of a certain class like medic or support. You could see who is running what class was so nice
- 4 years ago@fragnstein Well, kinda unnecessary now since classes are out and everyone can be self-sufficient mostly... There's no -need- to fill out a certain role anymore. I sometimes run a repair tool when I spawn in a tank to help out or switch gadgets to account for aerial spam or whatever...
In any case, I would like to see scoreboard or gathered stats but to be honest they should focus on making the game better first before doing anything else.- Provin9154 years agoSeasoned Veteran
Don't understand how something a simple as a proper scoreboard hasn't been introduced into the game.
Literally all other BF games had it, nearly every FPS shooter has it. Dice pls add it.
