Kill things, and try not to die so much?

git gud

i aim for an 8 KDR every match if i am playing seriously
otherwise if it my militia plasma cannon scout...KDR of 1 lol!

Well, then in that case just don't advance to the frontline. That is the frontline suits' job lol. I flank every game, and it works. Avoid CQC with ak.0/gk.0 scouts that tank, sneak up on them since they have low eWar (<--Ishokune nova knives come in handy)

And for some reason i always get installation killed at least one every match by redline large CA railguns

You need a higher KDR than that to join Molon


When I joined Fatal, my KD was below 1. It was around a .9 IIRC.

You just have to be good. KD doesn't show that. Weekly KD and weekly kills and weekly W/L does.

Actual Advice:

Play carefully. Very carefully.

Never leave good cover without a very good reason.

Why are you travelling alone? Stick with the group.

Sticking with the group? Good, but don't give someone a multikill. Spread out a bit.

See blue dots disappearing from your tacnet? See a shotgun in the killfeed? Put two and two together and BE READY.

Pick your battles. Sometimes disengaging and falling back is better than trying to take one down with you.

NEVER stand still. Not while shooting (Sniping excluded), not while hacking, now while waiting, NOTHING. Strafe while shooting, make random movements while running to objectives, never run in a straight line. People are trying to kill you, your job is to make that as hard as possible for them.

Lost all spawn points except for a CRU or a lone uplink? Wait a bit. Let someone else spawn in. If they spawn, and then immediately get killed, spawn elsewhere.

NEVER leave cover without a very good reason.

Think of what can go wrong before you do it. Did you make it to the point early and see that nobody is there? Free point right? NO. Someone else could easily have gotten there and be waiting for you to hack. Use your head, and walk up and hack for 1 bar and back off. If nobody comes screaming in, it's PROBABLY safe to hack.

I could go on and on.

Long story made short: Play Carefully, and let every decision you make be a CONSCIOUS one. THIS is what separates the wheat from the chaff.

Eventually, all these things become second nature. People wonder how you got so good. How you react so fast. It's practice.

You have done them all consciously for so long, they become unconscious. You circle strafe and add in random movements while shooting. You know when to push away from cover and when not to. You start to notice patterns and predictability on a moments notice, and people will wonder how you pull things off.

This is what makes you a vet. Not proto gear. Not tons of ISK or modded controllers.

It's playing smart for a very long time. Long enough for you to play like that without thinking. Then you start using that brain for more important things, such as advanced strategy and map control.

EDIT: THIS IS NOT EASY AT ALL

You are actually not that bad at all mate.

and @ OP - Just my opinion (who cares?) but if a corp places a lot of emphasis on KDR, are they really going to be that much fun? Some of the best players I know currently in game are happy to work with anyone that at least makes themselves useful.

KDR is quite meaningless and very easily manipulated.

do a duna. his kd is like 42/0 or something.

Hello Rammus.

If corps require a 2.0 KDR you shouldn't even want to join them.

Might I ask why you want to join another corp? With a 1.25 KD/R no offense, but I doubt many PC groups will be picking you up whether you pad or not. I mean this coming from someone who doesn't PC so I really don't mean to offend I'm just saying you don't seem near enough try hardy for that, if so, you wouldn't need to ask how to not die.

If you just want groups to play with you know you can mingle with players in other corps and join their chat channels if they get along with you, right? Then you can squad up with them when they are going RFx or you can say LFG and there you go. Not only do you have squads to play with but you also aren't siphoning isk to the top corp members who will be spending it on beer and hookers. If the corp has a 0.0% tax rate though then I could understand wanting to hook up for an extra LFG channel but anything above 0.0% and you might as well just hitch up to squads in chat channels.

if your running logistics and a true logi full time.. The KDR isn't that bad. You should make that point and go off Warpoint/death stat and make your point there..

Otherwise it's best to run with a full squad of payers you consider good. Matches become more of a turkey shoot then a challenge however.

If your looking for internal improvement possibilities... It seems more situational awareness is the issue. Knowing where and when to be in a position and when tot ake advantage of a situation... How to be in locations in an advantageous spot before the enemy gets there etc.. Best way to learn this is by watchig you-tubers gameplay videos and analyzing them, What could of been done better? Where was the enemy? What could have been done to change the outcome? Then going into matches and putting it into practice. If you have a capture card? record your gameplay and rewatch it with extreme criticism and look inwards to improve upon your performance.

The rest is learning how to aim and be patient when firing your weapon, this takes practice and clear motivation and active decision while playing to work and improve on your aim.

Wait wut? I thought you ran Amarr Assault with a Laser Rifle?

Way to break all my hopes and dreams Zin...
