Aeon Amadi Fatal Absolution General Tso's Alliance 7382	Posted - 2014.12.11 16:32:00 - [1] - Quote Shameless mimic of Shotty GoBang's Scout Registry before it became The Barbershop. It is requested that this thread remain on topic, concerning Assault suits and their players therein. Application and Statistics are entirely optional but can be tracked either in-game or more easily via www.dust514stats.com. A spreadsheet showing active participants and their statistics can be found here. I will try to keep up with it as often as I can. Assault Conglomerate Participation Guidelines Players meeting the following criteria may register via thread response: Have graduated from the Academy. Wear an Assault > 50% of time in combat. Agree to be honest (dedicated vehicle pilots who happen to wear an Assault Suit do not qualify). Agree to announce your departure should you later opt-out of the Assault suit.

Then you would be better off making an in-game channel if you want to form, co-ordinate, and squad up, which I would have no problem with. It just sounds like registries are a 'look at me I run this suit/weapon!' sort of thing... You may point at my 'Nova Knifers United' channel, but we use that channel more for squadding and chatting, rather than being all smug that we run Knives. I really don't see the issue.

There is no reason to make a thread like this, unless you honestly believe that Assaults are UP and want to show some stats to back it up. The reasons for this thread are not in any way the same as the Scout Registry and were never insinuated to be. It's a consolidated area for Assault players to gather, commune, and stat track themselves without having to go in-game. You may disagree with the reasoning or find them unclear but it's sort of a silly thing to argue against. You might ask "Why?" but I ask, "Why not?". Player stats aren't the best source of evidence to say that something is over powered or under-powered. It's actually just anecdotal evidence, even though it's marginally backed by statistics. Then again, statistics in and of themselves can show a correlation to anything if you try hard enough and that's why I've neglected to mention anything about this being a stat-driven argument for anything being OP or UP.

From here on, it will be updated on a weekly basis every Thursday, now that it has a standardized format. As such, best overall growth for the week will be awarded an ISK prize. New stats include changes from the last update to show participants whether they are doing better or worse. Sgt Kirk took the lead in kills with +178 kills. Cat Merc took the lead with best KDR growth with a 0.28% increase. Ripley Riley took the lead with the best Win/Loss Ratio growth with a 1.10% increase. Sgt Kirk once again took the lead with the highest change in Lifetime Warpoints with a 17,752 point increase. For best overall growth since the last update, Sgt Kirk received 500,000 ISK. I'd like to be able to gift $5 a week in Aurum (10,000) to the best overall growth per week, but I have no idea how to do it as PSN doesn't have a function to gift games/digital items on the store to a friend.

Aeon Amadi Fatal Absolution General Tso's Alliance 7441	Posted - 2014.12.13 18:21:00 - [10] - Quote In the process of verifying whether weekly growth rewards are considered RMT. So, stay tuned for that. Making an addendum (Im at work right now so Ill formalize it when I gt home) to the way things work. New Arrivals to the participation will be added at first opportunity, but will only be updated on from their entry date. This means that if we update on Thursdays, and a new participant joins on a Wednesday, he or she will only have their stats tracked from that one day of growth. This way, early participants still have an edge during the week (more days to increase kills and what not) while new arrivals dont have to wait to be added one week, and then another week to be eligible for growth prizes.

I remember Rattati mentioning wanting hybrid-rail kick reduction for Caldari. I think Gallente should maybe get a a bonus to optimal and/or effective range of hybrid-plasma weapons. I wouldn't mind but I know a lot of people would cite, "NO AR WAS OP IN CLOSED BETA", lol. Although, if we're going to appeal for weaknesses (Amarr bonus toward heat gameplay, Caldari bonus toward kick gameplay) then it'd make sense to have a bonus that appeals to Gallente weaknesses. Dispersion is -kinda- a good idea but we already have Sharpshooter, so it's kinda pointless. I wish I could say that bonus made the difference but it doesn't. Shotguns are kinda hit or miss as to whether you as a player like it, it's completely useless for the Plasma Cannon, and the Ion Pistol is still kinda too broken for it to make a difference. So, I'm down for it. Maybe a falloff range increase to increase the damage outside of the optimal would be a bit more fair than just a straight optimal range bonus, though... Think an optimal range bonus would just have other Assault's migrating to the Gallente as the AR suddenly becomes more powerful than their racial weapon. Just as well, Shotgun proliferation would be instantaneous with an optimal range bonus, me thinks. Long-Term Roadmap More Hard Questions

You guys will notice some changes, particularly in the form of color, indicating certain things: Blue: Super congrats! You landed MVP this week and are being awarded that $5 Aurum PSN code. You can expect a letter in the in-game mail soon containing your redeemable Aurum code. (This will continue until CCP gets back to me on whether or not this is RMT or they outright ban me without warning). Green: Generally means good news. Congratulations, you did a really good job and landed highest in the category. Red: You are underperforming compared to your peers. This may be due to being a new arrival to the Conglomerate stat tracking, or simply because you are not playing the game. Either way, you performed below average. Keep up the good work ladies.

Within the Assault Conglomerate, he's gone from Rank 6 to Rank 4 in kills in just four days. On the other hand, Heimdallr69's KDR has dropped 0.05 points suggesting that he's taking more chances in order to get those kills! sir RAVEN WING and Tweaksz are in the lead for KDR increase, both with 0.02 KDR increases since last Thursday. Tweaksz is also giving Heimdallr69 a run for his money on the MVP with an increase on the Win/Loss Ratio, up by 0.02 versus Heimdallr69's drop of 0.01. Keep up the good work guys.

Aeon Amadi Chimera Core 7602	Posted - 2014.12.25 12:33:00 - [31] - Quote UPDATE: 12/25/2014 Total Kills from The Assault Conglomerate: 20,837 (12,321 more than last week!) Average Kills: 564 Average WP Increase: 48,540 You guys will notice that Average KDR and W/L Ratio changes have been removed. This is because the numbers are so marginal that they're not worth tracking anymore but also because we've implemented a new Point System that tracks positive, negative, and no changes on both of those categories. This new (EXPERIMENTAL) point system (explained in the Previous Winners sheet) also explains how the MVP is determined. Heimdallr69 came -VERY CLOSE- to scoring the next MVP due to having the highest kills (almost -THREE THOUSAND-) and warpoint accrual but his negative KDR is what killed his chances. As a reminder, the weekly MVP around here is determined by best overall growth, not just kills and warpoints. As such, it came down to a tie between Tweaksz, Songs of Seraphim, and Jesus Chrysler with 12 points each for positive growth in all four categories. However, there can only be one winner in this weekly contest and that wound up being Tweaksz due to having highest growth in two categories: KDR and W/L Ratio as opposed to Jesus Chrysler and Songs of Seraphim who each had highest in one category. Tweaksz can look forward to a $5 Aurum code in his in-game mail. Again, this point system is entirely experimental and I would love to hear your feedback on it if you feel that it is unfair or should be changed in any way. Feel free to post suggestions!

As a result, will now be doing all spreadsheet updates in Excel because I found out how to set up functions and formulas to automatically math for me so I can put away the calculator. This means I update more reliably, more frequently, and provide more information such as charts/graphs of each individual player's statistical changes and such. That will be on a per request basis however as it does take some finagling. So, what does this all mean? Well, it means it's a lot easier for me because now I can see a boat load more information and more quickly input new data from the game. The bad news is that it doesn't translate very well to Google Docs and as such a lot of the color fields will be missing (initially) so it'll just look like a wall of numbers for you guys. This will be fixed on the next update. One more thing I've done is I've now included a shared link to the spreadsheet itself so that users can sort things at their leisure in their own instance without affecting the spreadsheet itself. You guys should find this to be much more user friendly as you're trying to find your individual stats, stats of others, etc. punksnowmash and Mexxx Dust-Slayer have been added now that Sony finally recovered the local region from The Lizard Squad "trying to show people the meaning of Christmas but really just want to sound cool using scripts" attack. Finally, in an effort to help better communicate among the Assault community, I've created a quick pie-chart of everyone's preferred Racial Assault suit. Given the data presented, I'm also including this week's topic questions (even though it's a few days late) to be directed to everyone running Caldari Assault: What is your reasoning for running Caldari Assault? What are it's pros and cons? Why do you prefer it over the others? Aeon's Links In an effort to be "positive" I will agree to everything CCP does.

Too many people run shields wrong. They think they can sit there and tank people. I run mine at 1.6 delay 71 recharge Right. Lot of people go into shields thinking they can ADS and go stand-offish with other players instead of using their strafe speed to their advantage. Shield is all about mobility, but not in the sense that you -have- to use biotics (although it can definitely help for disengagements). One thing I could never understand is how people could both complain that Shields were underpowered compared to Armor but then at the same time constantly complain that Caldari Scouts were OP. I did some investigation into the "hit box is broken" allegation but there is nothing to support it. I dunno. I watch some shield users that I fight against and at first I always give them the same overview: "**, they're using shields, my Combat Rifle won't be as effective" and then I watch their movements. Start to kind of laugh whenever I see them trying to ADS a firefight at <30m. Let alone the fact that a lot of them can't strafe to save their lives.

So, the new spreadsheet mechanics have paid off and it only took me 40 minutes to go through everyone's stats and determine a winner. Color coding has been slightly changed as you'll notice that: Highest - Dark Green Above Average - Green No Change (KDR/WLR) - Grey Below Average - Red No Change (Kills/WP) - Dark Red This is to help determine winners via points and to help encourage players who are doing their best by not having as many red marks on their record. I feel that by changing the color code, we can actively encourage players on the lower tier to rise up even further whenever they see that their color code isn't as bad as players who had absolutely no participation throughout the week. However, this game being a competitive one, sometimes it's better to be inactive than to shoot yourself in the foot go bottom of the marks in all categories. On to the important bits. This week we had an -amazing- turn out. Total Kills: 27,276 (9,993 more than last week!) Average Kills: 588 (121 more than last week!) Average WPs: 52,424 (12,695 more than last week!) At first, the winner looked like it was going to be neausea 1987 with highest kills and highest WP for the week. But as stated before with previous winners, we don't determine an MVP by killing the most... We determined a winner by the best growth. His chances were offset by having no difference in his KDR and a negative W/L Ratio by 0.04. The winner came down to a tie between Mexxx Dust-Slayer and Jesus Chrysler, but Mexxx Dust-Slayer pulled through with higher growth in -ALL FOUR CATEGORIES-, even despite being a new addition this week. That being said, this week's MVP is Mexxx Dust-Slayer, who can expect a $5 Aurum code in his in-game mail soon! Aeon's Links In an effort to be "positive" I will agree to everything CCP does.

Scouts can provide to the team with intel and hacks as well Commandos make great suppression and AV suits, Sentinels are room sweepers and point defense on top of killing. Logis... Assaults just kill. Thats it. No real secondary role. Unlike the other suits, their primary role is clone elimination. Thats all theyre truly good at. Killing isn't a role, it's what the entire game modes are based around outside of objective control. Sentinel's being "room sweepers and point defense" is exactly that: killing, killing, killing. Scouts are -sort- of intelish but we all know that they're using their low profile for assassination and what not instead of providing anything useful to their team.

So does putting the nade on first or last have any effect on how much PG it takes up? I think it's because decimals apply in CPU/PG Don't think so. I had a -massively- long thread about why CPU/PG aren't in decimals and they round off. Coding only allows for integers because if they were going to go with decimals it'd cost twice the memory. The only way they could have changed that was by changing everything to a float system which would cost the same amount of memory but it would have been a hell of a lot of man hours to accomplish as it's mostly an optimization.
