What is the point of 'Define Mission Goals' when you can't see them as a player or get a 'score' displayed?!

Am I missing something? You set them, you give them a nice description string. And the players never have anywhere to see them or know what the overall mission score is?!

Scores are used for campaigns

iirc:

>55 score = mission succes and campaign progress

<55 score = mission failure

(EDIT: See @Grimes' post for correct values)

 

I don't think scoring has any added value for single missions, but please anyone, correct me if I'm wrong

The score differentiator is 50 not 55. 0-49 pushes a stage backward. 50 exactly remains on the same stage, and 51-100 advances a stage. For single missions it still shows up on the debrief screen and some people may use it as an indication of success or failure. Outside that it serves no purpose.

So in a MP single mission - utterly pointless. 

Got it.
