Wow, so is it possible folks are bolstering their kill numbers by chicken quitting when they are about to die? Otherwise, this is a bug - I nailed a guy trying to hack a null cannon and he suddenly disappeared before dying. He then showed up on the score board as 5/0. Kinda bums me out . Dude, you're just a clone.

I'm not sure if the kills count in a match that you quit, but alot of players do leave battle to maintain their precious KDR. |

alot of stat padding nubs will quit if their KD takes a blow, it could also be the game since this build seems very unstable.

Well, I can't wait till the watch list bug is fixed. Plus, I will post a recommendation to have people on your watch list highlighted during staging time. It would be nice to have this data quickly before a match - otherwise the watch list is kinda useless.
Thanks for the input guys.

I've been wondering about this, do people lose vehicles if they quit before the match ends? i swear i've seen a dropship pilot who quits whenever someone takes him down. |

ppl will take the easiest way to compensate for their lack of talent or to stop them from repairing what they have achieved.
its going to come down to other requisites when issuing contracts to corps other than "im the top player on killboards" |

They are wasting their time.
Every game I have been disconnected from or kicked back to my quarters has equaled in 1 lost suit,1 more death and 0 kills. No matter how well you were ganking the other team.
Mind you something happened to me earlier where I fear this may no longer be the case. If I am correct. Ccp needs to return it back to yesterdays system.
You guys have the best anti dashboarding system I have seen in a multiplayer game yet. |

Last build had a glitch that I didn't see talked about here where you could jump out of your vehicle and as long as there was a teamate in the wreckage. Your vehicle was not deducted from your total.
This build if you do not finish the game in your vehicle or suit that you started the game in are gone.
This is my experience up until today. After downtime for the first time ever this was not the case. |

Only times I leave games are when I crash, invalid or if one of my squad doesn't make it. All of these happen within 20s of joining a game except, occasionally, crashing in the middle or towards the end. |

Hmmmm maybe later its either to check to see if those onwatch lists are worth recruiting or assasinating.

The worst part is for the people in vehicles, that disconnect or have a system crash due to DUST 514. You get booted from the game, but your vehicle doesn't. I got a connection failed message and instantly lost my dropship, and just lost a tank now too due to a hard freeze.
But as far as im aware, when I get booted from a match (never rage quit, whats the point? might aswell stay to the end and get that isk for the suits you just got ganked in ) i get my deaths added but not my kills. |

I don't think anyone should take people "quitting" mid-match too seriously right now. I was in a squad of 4 today, and after 6 or 7 games we still hadn't made it through to the end of a match without AT LEAST one person getting DCed. |

Those who are quiting to protect their KDR are in for a rude awakening when the game launches. I know I wouldn't hire someone who quits at the first sign of trouble. |

BAD FURRY quits if the enemy team is able to actually kill his tank. I imagine most tank players cut their losses if the enemy team has competent AV in some form or another. |

Haha.....He did that today during the Corp Battle. I blew up his Sagaris. I think he lost 2 tanks that match. Checked the end game stats and his name was nowhere to be found |

Hmmmm maybe later its either to check to see if those onwatch lists are worth recruiting or assasinating. It's your anti-friends list. People you don't quite want to block, but you want to know when they are online for... various reasons.
Eve players use the watch list to know when their enemies are online. "Oh look, innocent_carebear logged in, I'm going to go ruin his kittening day!" "Oh crap, xXL0RD0FD3ATHXx logged in, I'm going to hide in the station!" "KITTEN, the ENTIRE ENEMY CORP is logged in and I'm all alone, screw this!"
(They also use it for their friends because the whole interface is slightly different and weird in EVE but I'm not going to type 3 more paragraphs explaining the intricacies of EVE's user interface hellscape) |

This, this so much.
Altough you forgot the being on wrong server part and thus latency screwing all your hit detection against moving targets forcing you to lead your shots with 100-300ms ping.
But I have found a suitable solution for these matches. I'll just jump in to my inexpensive scout-suit with Shotgun + SMG and kill what I can (often with pretty good results). Shotgun is good when you are at least on correct servers (making your shots actually connect) and SMG is great for those matches with horrible hit detection (Spray and pray in the general direction of the enemy and hope for the best)
Those ambush matches on small maps are starting to become the most enjoyable thing in Dust due to the ever growing tank abuser problems. |

That they do.....They aren't willing to take their lumps, so the whole KDR thing can be thrown out the window. |

KDR is lame. Do these end of battle quitters realise they benefit more by sticking it out for the ISK and SP? If you want your name at the top of a leaderboard go play Galaxian or Pac-Man. |

Once null sec opens up, it will definitely be rude awakening. I couldn't see a corp putting up with people who care about their KDR. At the end of the day its about who takes districts and does it in a cost effective way. |

Ditto, altho I gont give a kitten about KDR, I want to WIN THE GAME.
I also don't give a damn if there are 4 known tank drivers on the other side (sigh), I won't quit a match, thats not me. Only time I will ever exit a match is due to freezing up or invalid fits. |

If the watch list is goIng to be the same as in eve it functions like this, your contacts list shows you who are online when you look at it but if say my friend bob was on my watch list a small square with his avatar and his name in green pops up when he comes online and a square with his avatar and name in red when he goes offline.
It's separate function then the contact list because it's such a huge list in eve most of the time it would be popping like crazy |

Oh yeah, I'm with you - I'm a fellow eve guy - I just wasn't sure if they were going to do it that way (if at all). |

There should be another statistic tracked: Number of matches quit without finishing.
Then we can see who's punking out. Sure, it'll unfairly count the people who got disconnected but I think it's a fair price to pay for seeing who's being a little *****. |

Why? Some battles are just not worth fighting for. You get nothing if you quit mid game, but for my knowledge you still loose the gear you used. Not that it matters as most players don't give a flying **** about stats anyways.
Besides isn't EVE universe known of it's traitors, spies, groups of players banding together just to wreak havoc on economy etc? if you want information about your enemies or allies you should earn it, buy it, gather it. |
