Problem here is the different stats of all the suits...
I think in this game there should be a much more New Eden related stat, the Kills per Isk invested ratio.
So if you kill a decent amount of suits with militia gear, you are better than a proto scrub who kills the same amount of opponents...! |

I am not trying to say anything about balance, timely releases, quality of released content, competence of CCP or players or anything other than the following:
I play for fun and my KDR (0.65) doesn't matter to me at all. I am usually at least sixth in a line up of 32 on the WP screen and I use all advanced gear. KDR doesn't always reflect the worth of a player. My win/loss was close to 2.0 and I make ISK no problem. Point is that you should play the way you like and enjoy, don't let some number make you feel like you are bad, except for maybe your wallet.
Problem is that the top corporations look on your KDR first and your other qualities second. They prefer to have a slayer with good logi abilities to a player with top logi abilities and only good slaying...
This is partially due to the PC mechanics, which are broken anyway, but that's it. Right now, you will only win with top slayers/vehicle experts. Anything else is futile...

I understand that you may believe that another patch may not come for a year. I know that the game has problems. I am not trying to say anything about balance, timely releases, quality of released content, competence of CCP or players or anything other than the following: Yes, PC is broken because of that. Every role should be needed to win and that is why I don't do PC. When real #logilove is needed in PC I will participate more. I stopped doing PC about three days after it was released because of this exact reason.
Not quite, I think CCP tries their best, but they stumble over their own feet and have a lack of personnell.
I don't care to much about PC anymore, since I'm not a good slayer, and don't want to be the reason to loose a district, so I moved to my own corp and squad with my friends I found in other corps. PC is dominated by the ELDER players (vets) and some new shots (with more than 25mil SP), who have skills or equipment that gives them the means to dominate.
This might change when the eve connection is becoming more important in PC 2.0. Anyway, I'm actually not looking forward to that, if it doesn't give us new game modes. If they implement that with the same crappy skirmish as we have now, it will still be about clone counts and KDR as it is now.

I did feel good when mine hit 1, it took a while.
Yepp, I probably will never hit 1, since I have a very head on into the middle of things playstyle... but that's just more fun, and I think I have lead a lot of point takeovers, where I wasted 3 or more suits in a minute... but it was fun. |

My brob with some of the KDR whores is the fact that even with their good to awesome skills they often retreat when the going gets tough or find excuses why they have to go from the thickest place to some outside node, where they won't die that often.
That's good for their KDR, but might be bad for the team, it feels like desertion sometimes... |
