I suspected this for sometime now but I just verified it. I enter a ambush OMS near half way.
There were a collection of Red on the Table Top in Line Harvest.
I got hit by a laser ran back to Alpha. I then proceeded to Kill three Reds then got taken out by a grenade.
+50 rolled by me three times and at the end of the match I got 1K /1D.
Not only can't CCP/Shanghai keep track of Kills/Deaths/WP for statistics in Skirmish they are not capable of keeping track of the actual Kills in a game. They can, however, keep track of your Deaths.
Get off your Corporate Dev Tails and fix this. I don't care about timelines, release dates and new features.
Make Stinking DUST Work Now, then it will just be DUST once again.

Did your match ended due to time expiration or due to depletion of clones? Someone has observed that skirimsh registers stats when it ends due to clones depletion and not destroying MCC.
Ambush rarely ends due to timer. Everebody tries to just score a kill.
Skirmish usually ends by destroying mcc. Everybody tries to hack NULLs first and score kills later... NULLs finish MCC faster than mercs finish mercs...
Ambush OMS have installations too but no mcc. The installations may divert mercs from killing to hacking. This fact heighten chances of match ending due to time expiration...
Does it make sense?

The match was an Ambush OMS. Neither Ambush has had the Clone Depletion limitation for registering Kills/Deaths/WP. That is a Skirmish issue that has plagued DUST since Feb. 28, 2013 and has been acknowledged recently in the Weekly Updates as a Persistent Bug. It is scheduled to be fixed in Uprising. If KD is important to you then Ambush is the solution until Uprising.
This problem is a completely different problem: while in game I got three Kills (+50, three separate times with three Reds dropping from AR rounds) and DUST registered 1 Kill for the match. I messed up and did not record the WP. I have seen the problem, I believe, even in Skirmish but the longer matches mean I might forget to check at the end. I only noticed this because I entered late and the kills were fresh in my mind when the match ended.
Next time I will note the K/D/WP so we can establish if they are missing WP as well. WP affect SP so that would be a worse failure mode, personally. SP is the most precious component of DUST, losing any is not a good thing.
K/D and the KD/R is a bother and I don't care that much about it. I am not a great killer and I am fine with that. But I really think that I should get the credit for the kills I do manage to get and I hope I am getting the WP, although I suspect that I didn't receive it.
Here is the posting from Weekly Updates:
[PERSISTENT BUG] Kills/Deaths stats not updating still: https://forums.dust514.com/default.aspx?g=posts&t=61446&p=6 Status: This is fixed in the next build update. |

Yes, I've noticed this problem quite a bit too.
Playing Ambush, I fully expect only about 1/3 of my kills to end up on the scoreboard. It seems pretty arbitrary, but it's definitely bugged. In the squad, racking up kills at a solid rate with a MD for a full match and in the end it shows 3/1. |

The Ambush Not Tracking Kills Bug also affects WP. I had another Ambush (unplanned, I didn't realize the SL was going there) and I quickly dropped four Reds. The match wasn't very long as we joined it at least half way done. I hacked a supply depot and wound up with 100 WP and 1 Kill.
Once again DUST didn't even log the kills only this time I was able to verify that the WP was not awarded either.
Hopefully the Skirmish Stats Tracking Bug will include fixing this one. However, it seems like a completely separate problem so unless the Devs acknowledge that they are connected and fixed for May 6th ... I am not overly hopeful.
With all the activity in Skirmish with its many objectives, chances to get Assists for different actions and the fact that it goes on for ~25 minutes on occasion it would not surprise me that we are missing WP in Skirmish as well. There is little that should be different for logging Kills between different battle types. Although this is another clear reason that complete battle logs should be available.
The problem is without recording the match I have no idea how to properly track and document the extent of the problem. There is a limit on what I can do as a Beta tester. Adding recording HW to identify bugs that QA should have found is definitely out of my budget. |

Hey Devs. Missed me?
I missed my WP.
GMT 1030 6 June, 2013 don't know the map name but was in America. I don't know what the Squad Leader's region was.
Finished a reasonably standard Skirmish. Not a big problem overall just getting back into the swing of DUST. I finished with 6K, 8A, 1D. The problem is I only got 400 WP.
6 K = 300 8 A = 200 Total is not equal to 400.
This however I check and I would seriously like to know what is going on here. WP drives SP which drives how long I have to grind down in the DUST.
Please address this SOON(tm). Or faster. |

c'mon guys. we can't have something working correctly. they had to fubar that or think of the standard they'd have to uphold.
next up, guns will begin to only do half of their listed damage for the next 8 months.
(I actually hope that doesn't start happening. But I wouldn't be surprised. weird, huh?) |

EDIT: sorry, I forgot why I came here originally. It happens quite consistently in Skirmish. The new battle record screen makes it much easier to verify. It happens to my primary character on a regular basis. |
