He just went 0/0/2. totally sucked. Funny, he still got 150k ISK and 4000 SP. How can any game that pours rewards onto losers like that be hard? I guess it depends on your definition of a successful game. If you gauge success by WP made then yeah, it's easy... But if you're going to gauge success by K/D and wins like most people then you're wrong.
Going by K/D or even wins means that you're doing it wrong. K/D is completely worthless, and Wins is almost so. WP is the only way to have any idea of how you may have contributed given our current lack of meaningful statistics. |

So you're saying the guy who goes around in a rail tank blowing up yellow installations did more than the people holding the objectives and getting the kills?
I'm saying K/D is worthless. The Win statistic nearly so. I think I made that clear. While WP isn't perfect, it's better than both of those because, you know, kills give WP too. |

Trying to win is important, and certainly a major factor in the game. Not necessarily the most important though.
The win statistic on the other hand is almost as worthless as the KDR. Neither of these statistics tell anything about how good a player you are. lol.

EDIT: I'm assuming that we're talking about Skirmish here, or at least Domination. If you're talking about Ambush, well then, that's problem number one, still though KDR and wins are pretty meaningless in Dust. and again you sir are a fool individually all are worthless but together as a whole they are a good judge of a mercs competency and going by WP is absolutely stupid b/c i ***** logi can make as many Wp at 5mil sp as a great slayer assault at 10mil sp so wp alone may be a decent judge of a logi and k/d a decent jusdge of a heavy but for every1 else you need to average between the three
So if I play Logi, and hack and heal, I'm not good? Or maybe if I fly DS and deliver troops to where they're needed, I'm not good? Or how about If I scout out for the best Orbital, I'm no good?
You have a very myopic view. Luckily for us, it's wrong.
If you want to tell if a player is good or not, play with them. The end. |
