I'm pretty sure he said:

Agreed, but it still doesnt determine how good you are. What say you to Logis that arent slayers? What say you to the greatest Jihad LAV driver ever that rocks a near 1.0 +- due some you win some you lose but god damn I need to kill myself everytime because I cant trust the car to move just a bit further under its own power?
What say you to the guy in milita gear that fights an epic battle against the proto odds but for every 2 steps forward, who must take 1 back?
KDR meaning anything in this game is nothing short of a joke but I respect your opinion. |

POW right in the kisser! Right after my own heart. As a logistics I tend to run negative isk when I'm using good fits. So I hit the pubs in a free fit and just run around doing not much of anything when solo. If in a squad I'll give some effort but ultimately it's just for the isk. If I die 15 times then meh, no isk from my pockets. |

KDR is literally the only important stat in this game.
In PC its about winning and in pubs its about KDR. thats cod this is dust and they are both first person shooters... wow gosh... look at that...
So if I keep 10 people from dying and allow them to kill 20 more by support that doesn't matter at all?
Because, that's why.

the posts in this thread make me think some people need to check if their punctuation keys are working anymore
also, KD/R means nothing compared to WP and winning the match. |

uh.... I think we're saying the same thing? You may want to read my post again.
A JLAV driver that is successful should have a decent isk efficiency, even though his KDR would be terrible.
A guy in MLT gear would also have a terrible KDR vs proto users but would have a decent isk efficiency if he killed even 1-2 of them. |

Of course kdr matters. Or rather, skill/gungame matters. Situational awareness matters. These are all tied to isk efficiency in one way or another. The more you kill and the less you die, the better for your team and yourself.
In most shooters, kdr is important. Dust is no exception just because it is an mmo. You can't counterhack if you're dead. You can counterhack if the objective has been cleared of red dots. It's all very simple.
In most shooters it is all about making the red dots waste time. Kdr helps but is not all important. Let them bleed out and waste time running back to the front while you do something productive. Or tie up 2+ enemies letting the rest of your team do the job.
In Dust each death costs isk. In Dust, kdr is more important than other shooters, because it directly ties into isk efficiency.
Fact. |

When I'm crashing my 3rd JLAV in a match against some scrub HAVs, or using a 10k ISK fit to suicide-rush into a fight to get a couple proto kills... What is foremost on my mind is definitely the KDR. |

I wouldn't be a scout if my KDR mattered to me, hell I wouldn't be minmatar.
Oh who am I kidding I'd still be minmatar. ^_^

Yeah and no.
ISK efficiency is more my thing. If I cost the enemy more than they cost me I have won and I always do.
My KDR is really average though and when I started caring I was at about 1.2 now I sit at about 2.5 and growing.
