Why no scores after mission?

Recommended Posts

(First I apologize if this has already been discussed, but I couldn't find it in a search)

Why no "score screen" for Armed Assault? In Operation Flashpoint, after a mission (or after your death) a little book would come up with a score and a list of units you killed (enemy or otherwise). It also listed casualties in your group.

I always enjoyed lobbing 203 rounds into a village and then seeing what/who I actually hit. It always also nice to confirm if you hit that "priority target" in a sniper mission, without crawling up to a body.

Flashpoint was also nice in that after you were killed, the camera would show your mangled corpse and then pan over to the unit that killed you. Was it an enemy sniper in the treeline that got me, or some idiot machine gunner on my own side?

Realism ?

It still does that but it takes longer.

It does show your kills at the end of a mission. It even still uses the book from the map screen. Have a look (usually all the way at the bottom) and you'll see a link to 'statistics'. Sometimes there is an arrow at the bottom of the page. This indicates that there's more info on the next page. Click the arrow and you should find 'statistics'.

I hope this is what you were talking about. wink_o.gif

I'm still not seeing the score book....but I did wait a while longer and see that it does show the unit that killed you. Thanks!

I am not sure about this one, but I think I noticed it once. If you create your own mission and than press the Preview button, there will be no score afterwards. But if you save it as a Single Mission and play it, there should be a score after the game. I think ...

I'd like to see this in mp too....a bit faster though, like CoD

That must be the problem, I only play (preview) missions that I made.

Thanks to all that replied.

I mentioned this when I first got ArmA, having no stastics once you have previewed a mission in the editor.

I wouldn't of thought it would of taken much time to impliment this again, but BIS decided to leave out this feature for some reason, and I do miss it, or I did, until I stopped playing ArmA.

How about a link to the BTS-item where you requested this feature smile_o.gif Besides, I bet there's a whole bunch with me when I say that I hope they don't waste too much time on such features but fix the REAL problems that people have reported smile_o.gif

Why not just press "Shift" when hitting the preview button ?  smile_o.gif

Ooh, thank you!! *off to try*

EDIT: Ha, was that me being a little too naive?  whistle.gif
