Dust has a built in running scorecard... this is good. BUt it has a single whopping drawback.
To view it, you have to load it (at least 2-3 seconds of Black Screen in which you load it) and when you're done looking at it, you have to go through another 2-3 seconds of Black Screen to go back to the game and be able to play.
Poor design.
What I would like to see it pressing the Scorecard button Overlays the Scorecard immediately over the screen. No black screens, no interactability for in-battle screens (save that for the end of match one) with compressed name and stats to fit all 16 players on the screen for each team.
Meanwhile, releasing the key immediately allows you to rejoin the battle. So instead of 4-6 seconds just to get the screen up (not to mention actually looking at it and gaining info) and unloading it to be able to play again, you get an instant overlay that doesn't interfere nearly as much, so you can spend 2-3 seconds actually looking at the scorecard, and that is it. |

So, optimize the scoreboard?
Cool.
I like checking my slaughter to flesh wound ratio, let's me know if I'm having a good battle or not.
Optimize!!! |

Yeah me too. I can't in this game because as the OP states it is currently a hassle. A seamless streamlined overlay would be great! Better yet, make it so I can still move whilst it is on-screen, in case it accidentally comes up in the middle of a gunfight  |

I think this was done already, you can look at your squad while on the spawn screen and look at the clone count in battle. Effectively those are the only 2 sets of info that matter to a merc while fighting. I do like your idea but do we really need it? Would it lead to whole squads standing still for 3-4 seconds while checking for an OB? Maybe a Total Squad WP ticker should be implemented on the top right hand corner of the screen with a killfeed below it to allow a quick check of the Squad Score rather than each and every merc's score. |
