KDR means nothing in this game. What matters are the founding themes to it.
The principle of New Eden's "your choices matter." From how you fit your suits to how you spend your SP.
Player choice is the most important aspect. Being revived is not a choice and is therefore against everything the game stands for.
Without an option to be revived or auto-terminate your gameplay experience is not dependent on how you wish to play but the whimsy of some ******* with a needle.

If I might add, a couple of things to improve the revive system.
Option to Accept or Decline Revive (Likely not possible in Dust)
War Points based off of HP restored (Better injector = more WP)
Death = Bleeding out, not just being shot down (You're not dead until you're actually dead yeah?)
I prefer to use already established mechanic than making something from scratch. I think it would be better if you had the equivalent of transport assist point given to the needle with a very minuscule level of WP for the act reviving. Somewhere between 5-15WP. Picking someone up should be a tactical choice for the betterment of your team, not something done to acquire the most war points.

Without an option to be revived or auto-terminate your gameplay experience is not dependent on how you wish to play but the whimsy of some ******* with a needle. By that logic, if I as a player choose to revive you, thems the breaks. I chose to rev you just as I chose to shoot the enemy. If you don't want to be reved, don't die.... by that logic that is.
Congrats, you got it. The only options you have without an accept/decline revive are to stay the **** away from blue dots or turn off your system before some dumbass gets near you
KDR, W/L, WPs, none of those things matter in this game. The only thing that matters is a sustainable ISK outcome. Being revived has no bearing on ISK so all those points are irrelevent. The reason needles are ******* stupid is because there's no control over your own character.
