Last week I squaded with a lot of players on my skill level and averaged a 2.5kdr. This week I'm going to squad with players under my skill level and I want you to acknowledge the match-making differentials. Ok? Look at the gap between my stats this week and last week. Thank you .
I'm a try-hard, because half my team sits in the MCC.

That's an interesting line of thought...
On the surface, you'd think your lower skiill level squadmates would lower your MU and increase your likelihood of being matched up against weaker players, and your KDR would go up.
Then again, low-MU teammates won't be able to kill or defend you as well, so you'd likely die more from that perspective.
On a related note: I'd be interested in understanding not only your KDR but your W:L in your experiment.
Moving past all that.... I'm not sure what you're trying to prove -- we all know that Dust doesn't "match make" but rather "balance those assigned to a match".... and a sample size of 1 is still a sample size of 1, and effectively irrelevant in the grand scheme of things.... |

Because you can't control getting into a game late all that well. The amount of times I've joined games, only to have them end in the time it took me to look at the scoreboard is staggering. Not to mention the fact that a single player can't turn a game around. Squading up almost guarantees a win when with a good squad, while going against a full squad solo almost guarantees a loss. There isn't currently a stat in this game that can truly define skill, KD/R is more of a personal tracker for most people I believe.
I want to punch.

There isn't currently a stat in this game that can truly define skill, KD/R is more of a personal tracker for most people I believe. I think a combination of kdr and win loss ratio must both be looked at to truly see the difference between playing with players as skilled as yourself or weaker players. Of course a match joined in Any place but the start would not be included in the calculations.
If you do 50 matches fresh start in each squad you should be able to see the difference easy ....but then the day of the week and time played also account for something everyone knows that first day if so reset has always had the roughest matches ..for Americans early morning is also in general rougher than evening

Yea, I had a rough start plus two PC matches, but stats came right back up after PC and the rest of the day. Averaging 5.2kdr and 3.09 wlr right now.

I run into players, when in these low player level squads, and the have little gun-game. In addition, i'm not seeing many uplinks, vehicles, strategy in general. The over all experience in these matches are unbearable. I feel bad for killing these guys. I'll watch them run right by me in a militia suit and don't both killing them. All I want is the win, if they are getting their butts whooped, then I don't hunt them, just feels wrong. But this is my whole point to this thread. A lot of veteran players know about this and are abusing it.

Lol guess I'm doing it wrong rolling in high mu squads for rough fights ..guess I should squad with scrubs to make isk ..This sounds very abuse able actually if the system is truly that manipulative
