Stat Board ruins the game
is it me, or are people more concerned with where they are on the stat board, then they are with winning the game, helping someone on their team. Forget the board doesnt tell the whole story ...

@Padding_Ur_Stats Fake scores on the scoreboard are lame. I miss when the scoreboard actually tracked your XP contributions overall, vs. just arbitrarily picking kills/assists/reviews/captures and weighting each one differently to come up with a score that's in no way, shape, or form actually reflective of your tracked contributions to your team.
But I imagine DICE doesn't have the technology for that anymore, maybe in BF2043 or BF6 or whatever the next BF title will be they'll rediscover this lost relic of the past.

- @edgecrusherO0 The board misses alot. They need to track things like, amount of healing done, not just revive. Amount of vehicle damage done, not just the killing blow or the missile prior. How many people supplied. I run out of ammo all the time. I carry a supply box but everyone uses it. No credit in game. Same with the heal box. No credit
However, the stat board focuses on kills and assists. Ironically, I could do 99 points of damage, you do 1, and you will get higher rating then me. People are waiting to attack vehicles until theyre damaged because they want the kills. It hurts game play. Assign the XP and score after youre out of the game.@Padding_Ur_StatsI don't think it needs to track/show all those things, that's way too much information (especially with the current setup), much of which isn't super useful to your team/yourself outside of patting yourself on the back (though that goes for most stats, technically).
But the "score" that currently is your combined total of kills (x2), assists (x1), revives (x2), and flag captures (x3) is misleading. That score should instead reflect your actual XP contributions - part damage, resupplying, healing, partial flag captures or defenses that don't grant full flag capture credit, spotting (not just spot-assists), damage done to enemies, headshot bonuses etc.
It's all tracked data as it's reflected in the level progress screen at the end of matches, I guess DICE just doesn't have the technology to show it in the scoreboards, though. Just like they don't have the technology, even after 18 months of work, port over the existing scoring system that's been improved and refined over the years and was great in BFV, so we're left with them continuing to slowly rebuild the score system as a hollow skeleton of what it once was.@edgecrusherO0 +1 Fully Agree... Its just what Battlefield is.
