Dear data enthusiasts,
here is a document you can play around with. It contains the kills per weapon, dropsuit and combination, and reverse combination for you to study and dig around in.
Have fun with it.
I am sharing this now, so we have a baseline to compare Foxfour numbers to later.

Remember cal assault was overused due to dual tanking and not being true caldari another words it had nothing to do with shields being "good" but the fact it was good for dual tanking
I imagine this'll change a bit

I am somewhat concerned about the position of an Officer weapon as one of the top killing weapons in PC. I know the Officer proliferation has been ... extreme, but to see it as one of the highest kill weapon in terms of raw kills is a bit disheartening.
I think Officer weapons should be some of the best KDR weapons among all weapons, but to see it also topping raw kill numbers indicates that it is seeing extreme fielding and use which seems at odds with the ideal of having officer weapons being OP due to scarcity. If they can be fielded so widely then perhaps there is a need to either balance them with expectation that they will be used en masse or to modify proliferation rates to ensure scarcity.

This is because the posture base for pc is rather limited and corps are able to buy up officer gear with all the isk they generate and provide it to their players. Working as intended and good for the community. Think is all they gear was being dumped into pubs, officer spam in pubs is already ridiculous. How would you even propose a "fix" to your perceived problem when corps are already stocked on billions worth? Just remove them? Cause it would take a long time to filter out by just making them more rare. Though the officer meta is a bit ridiculous pc's are fun still. Let's actually fix things like ewar instead of looking at silly stuff.

Wow, interesting to see all the above-proto tier weapons there.
I get the causes for that, but still, for some reason wasn't expecting it on that level.

Are vehicle stats missing from this?

Are we afraid of the revolt of dropsuit users if you include vehicle stats in this?

I suppose an important question to ask toward CCP Rattati is if these numbers are 1) What you expect to see given current meta / balance, and 2) What you want to see with regards to end goals of balance vs current 'flavor'
A few observations on my part:
I'm quite happy to see racial rifles being so popular on each racial suit being the most prevalent fittings. (Am with Scr, Ga with AR, etc) The only notable deviation from this is Minmatar Assaults using plenty of Shotguns, which fits with the notion of Minmatar suits behaving similar to one weight class lower.
Comparatively the Amarr line which tends to weigh in about one suit class higher has a very popular Heavy frame as it can end up with more Armor hp than other heavy variants.
I think that the fact that certain dropsuit classes are missing is a bit of a cause for concern although it makes more sense in a pure kill data dump for logistics to not show up, but for suits like the Amarr Commando and the Gallente Commando to not show up even near the bottom is somewhat worrisome.

Not everything will be viable in PC. Pubs have incredible variety, in fact so much that it's hard to distill any robust conclusions from it.
Thing about PC, is that a tiny stat difference can eliminate a whole class/role, purely on the stats, not on how it plays, looks or feels.
We will try, but PC is pretty black and white, it has very little patience for sub-optimal fits. To be at this relative mix is pretty fantastic, compared to where we were months or years ago.

I realize that there's always something left to be done, but balancing wise this game seems rather healthy now, which is a pretty big achievement given the state of things when you came into power. That deserves a serious thumbs up.
As for the lack of usage of certain suits or weapons in PC right now:
LRs are terribly underused and only the NEG-1 manages to claim a total of 652 kills out of 185k. That seems like a cause for action.
Also heavies seem very popular, yet they only come in officer HMG, pro assault HMG or pro vanilla HMG variants. This seems like a huge part of PC that's dominated by a terrible monotony of choices. Choose sentinel, choose HMG, do the same thing everybody else does. I suggest diversifying HMGs further (more range for assault HMG, or a new 'tactical HMG') and creating an anti-infantry variant of the FG (how about: 1.0 charge time, 1.0 duration of the fire animation, 800 damage for a total of 400 dps before bonuses, 400 damage splash at 2.0 meters radius, 125 meter effective range, 200 absolute range). The data tells me that this area of PC needs more variety and I don't know how else to provide it. |

Sorry, I did not mean to come across as overly critical in my response. I find it AMAZING that we have as much variety as we do, especially in regards to Assault Suits. Taking out the Minmatar use of Shotgun Assault fits we see that EVERY racial Assault paired with their Racial rifle is both a viable and popular choice on the battlefield which is fantastic to see.
The fact that every Sentinel suit sees use is also to be commended, as well as every scout suit. We have a situation where every class of dropsuit (L, M, H) has a viable role with every race. Simply pretending that each of these suit classes / races are all identically fit (which the data clearly shows they are not) We can see 12 viable 'classes' with more besides in the roles of Logistics, a few commandos, and then the numerous viable rifle subtypes (Assaults, Breaches, Tactical Variants)
What you have done this past year and a bit is amazing. You have created a competitive FPS with a plethora of distinct guns, roles, suits and fittings which are all viable at end game level. This blows other FPS games out of the water, and you really need some sort of trophy for this feat.

Sticky knives on cloaky dampened suits that run faster, jump higher and have a smaller hitbox than any other suit in the game had more kills than other weapons?  No way!

I remember when having 1-2 snipers was viable in PC.
If you had exceptional snipers on half of the maps they could perform well enough to merit having one.
Provide just enough of an x-factor to assist in cloning out the enemy team, or at the very least help protect a point.
You excluded an entire subset of your player base by not scaling the sniper rifle appropriately.
Under the term "precision weapon" the sniper rifle was bastardized by well meaning Developers / CPM's.
A headshot only weapon isn't viable. Dust 514 often runs at well below 30 frames per second, include bad hit detection, cloaking, jumping, reduced clip sizes, player movement while hacking installations. There are any number of factors that make that style of gameplay extremely unrewarding. In terms of both kills and level of enjoyment.
Counter snipers are too easily rewarded, removing player skill from the equation completely. The better sniper cannot win out the fight, because there is no fight. Again more unrewarding game play courtesy of those well meaning Developers / CPM's who know not what they've done. Nor care to rectify it.
I would like to direct your attention here.
Sniper Rifle Scaling / Red Line / Range
Just to point it out, you'll see the standard sniper rifle killing most players with 2 shots.
[equal levels of advancement on suit vs. sniper rifle]
Assaults would lose half, scouts would lose more than half. Anyway you look at it 2 bullets to kill the majority of infantry. If you read the post you'll see that many players could increase that number through tactical load outs. A great many did. Eventually almost everyone did. (see damage mod nerf)
Time to kill was a front line infantry problem, but in the end everyone just put on more armor while sniper rifle base damage became that much worse. (snipers stack damage mods)
Anyway, not going to bore you with the history of the ostracized sniper class, unless I hear you say you would like to help this portion of the player base.
Keep in mind, I don't play this game anymore. That's how much I care.

I also don't play this game anymore yet I still come back to provide feedback. Not since I did some post 1.8 sniping simulations/tests to see how it was all affected due to the changes. 1.8 was released a while back, too, but still. That's how much I care. Modifications have been made to modules post 1.4 that have changed or altered playstyles, while also indirectly affecting sniping. Shield buffs, HP plate buffs, myofibril stimulants, cloaking, suit bonuses, socket alterations, etc. just to name a few.
I see you coming from a mile away.

because you missed the part where ratatti said there is a cut off point in the hundreds in his response to aeon. snipers weren't getting enough kills, and aparrently neither was the amarr logi.
overall pretty accurate reflection of whats great and what isnt, even when considering high tier gear players use in pubs compared to the random hodge podge of adv pub gear.
