@Trokey66Im not sure why you are on this board. Is there something you know we dont? Did you play the beta? The scoreboard was changed. Do you own BF 4 or 1 or V? Boot them up and look the board.
The whole point of board is after the game, i want to see how i performed when compared to the opposite team. A scoreboard is like the basic fundamental aspect of most games going back all the way to pong.
Since the last 4 BF betas (which i played all of them) had a proper scoreboard in them, one can assume that the new version Dice put in is here to stay. Hence the "outrage".
Also, yeah our assumptions come from the beta. And why not? Did u see my previews reply? All it takes is for dice to say "dont sweat it, its in" and no one will ever yap about it again. Im not sure why this is so hard to grasp for you, unless you're just trolling?
a one size fits all scoreboard is not a great measurement system for BF because of all the different roles you can play. the scoreboard only shows k/d and points. But it won't tell you if you led in revives or resupplies or flag caps or vehicle damage or spotting etc. And some roles will get more kills like pilots and tankers compared to infantry. So the scoreboard is a pretty limited measurement system for a large team objective based game.
They can show that without a scoreboard.
And actually in BF1, that's what they did. One of the end of the round screens told me what place I was in kills or revives etc (up to top 5 or something like that) as well as how your squad ranked in a few categories.
so looking back, the process to evolve away from the traditional scoreboard started at least as far back as BF1.
