 This game needs a "beginners mode". And I agree. It is amazing to see so many people doing nothing on the battlefield.

 KDR =/= Skill
 
 Seriously, I've gotten four kills and three deaths in a Skirmish match, but still gotten to the top of the list by supporting my team with hacking the Null cannons, reviving my teammates, giving them ammo and an uplink to spawn into. And I must remind you, you were bad at some point too, the people on the top of the scoreboard are still probably learning the gripes of the game, and with no proper wiki or tutorial to help them choose the correct skills or dropsuits, they are pretty much clueless without a corporation to help.
 
 So, cut them some slack, everyone was a noob at some point.

 Yea, coordinated squads of ppl attacking same objective in one-by-one terms(when guy in front die, he will be replaced immediately by the guy at the back - aka "lemming tactic") - sometimes I see whole team attacking like that objectives, why none of them put some uplinks, try to flank defenders, use optimal range of they weapons as advantage..

 The post match leaderboard is based on WP not kills. Its not uncommon to have more kills than the the top player for a match. What I find insane about this post is that you are saying everybody you played with sucked and you wend .3 KD like a boss

 Getting revives and assists is not a reason to neg bomb a match and then get on the forums insulting your team for sucking. DUST features testers from all skill levels.
 
 What your thread should have said was "DUST is awesome because I can do well without getting 20 kills per match even when I'm not with the best players". Just saying really
 
 Wait...what was my point d'oh

 lol another KDR scrub who thinks that is all that matters.
 Met quite a few logibros who don't have good KDRs yet are vital to the team. There are also players testing different playstyles instead of just sticking with an Assault suit and an AR.

 Current KDR = 0.7 ... and I so don't give a *beep*.
 
 Been trying logi / assault / sniper and I have been putting SP all over the place instead of running proto and going 20+/0.
 
 Trust me this doesn't make the game less fun. Ok it kinda sucks at times that even a gek gets me on me knees in like 3 shots, but that was the risk I took this build.
 
 Alot of peeps are experimenting now that they still can, after the last wipe that'll be over and you'll be heavily punished for sidetracking from a solid build.
 
 Put things in context... it's still a BETA, not everyone is trying to become topdog on the leaderboards. Also the lack of any beginners levels / matchmaking makes it harder and harder for the newcomers to really get ito the game now that protosuits are getting more and more frequent.

 me talking about my KD was in retrospect to having gone through an entire skirmish. beginning to end, going 3/9. think about it.. how good could my score possibly be for it to make a difference? for the record it was between 600-700. there were at least six people that had a score of zero if that means anything.
 
 I honestly don't think you guys realize the fail i was witnessing. it was beyond words, but i will try.. you cant see what i saw and not be for some kind of eugenics. its still hard for me to believe there were actually people holding controllers looking at a TV during that game. after a while the how and why builds inside your stomach like a rat gnawing away at your intestines and all you can think about is choking the life from their worthless eyeballs.
 
 is there a petition for a beginners mode because this game desperately needs one...

 You just can't do anything when the enemy has better stuff than you. With better skills. I was a good player. Now, I'm told people have 8mil SP. I've got 5.5mil. And I wasted a mil in lvl5 nades. I can't even compete with the players in my corp because they do more damage, have more health and just generally make me look/feel like a scrub.

 there are a lot of idiots out there.
 
 but there are those who play passively, and do very well. The logies in our corp can top the leader boards with 0 kills, and 0 deaths at times, and that's without the repair WP. It's actually quite a surprise to see, because I usually focus on killing the enemy team, and maintaining map control.
 
 not bad Logies, not bad at all.

 You also have to remember that this game inflates and deflates peoples skill levels.
 
 Kids that sit home all day, every day and play, will seem MUCH better than they actually are, thanks to huge SP and ISK pools.
 
 On the other hand, someone who's actually good, but rarely plays, will have their score drastically lowered thanks to low SP and ISK
 
 Factor in the fact that the matchmaking system doesn't work thanks to such a small pool of players, and you have the current game where people that suck are good, and people who are good, suck.

 this is a beta forum and the opinion must be voiced.
 
 besides the harsh pub matches actually hinder the newbies ability to adapt.. how are you supposed to understand group dynamics if you cant even leave the spawn. there needs to be another way. a ground war on flatland with default suit builds so the new guys can get at least somewhat familiar with the squad system, mechanics etc. just dwarf the sp gain and turn off the monies. want money? off to the meat grinder. right now its just a 24/7 slaughter house. there needs to be more options.

 I'm sure they have many ideas on how to break us up into groups and let the matchmaker place us where we best belong. I even hope those militia/standard only maps come back. Although, i'm not sure if we will be seeing them anytime soon because of a low player count. Normally there seems to be just enough ppl to fill a couple matches. If we started breaking ppl up into groups with complex algorithms, then we may never see a full match or it could take 30 min for the right matchmaker composition to be found.
 
 Yep, i suck at fps's, i know... but wow do i get a laugh from listening to ppl whine and rage over team comms. It's just a game, relax.

 Saying "it's astonishing how bad you all are" is not "this game needs a beginner mode". Getting defensive when people call you out over saying that also is not saying the game needs a beginner mode. Do I think the game needs a beginner mode? In a sense. The matchmaking leaves a lot to be desired. Sorting by groups and SP would be a good beginning.
 
 You're right, this -is- a beta forum, not your personal outlet forcomplaining about the same bluedots we all deal with.

 Yeh I agree tho to be honest with the op. I started a one hacking terminal match earlier, easily 3/4 of the way through. Got a few kills in the dying minutes, captured some guns and refitting stuff on my way to the terminal and the match ended before I made it there. Came top of the team with 380 wp's.

 I would have to agree with the OP to a point.But heres the thing ....its not about kills.The placement of the you on the overall ending is based on several factors and you and the money given out is based on those standings 1-16 not just kills.If YOU are trying to win and they're(your team) sitting back and you are trying to hack and fix/revive,spawn beacon then you are helping your team.Therefore you should be rewarded and not the camper.....
 
 If you are getting redlined and your sick of that you respawn in PROTO fit cost to you upwards of 350 thousand ISK and start killing with your DUVALL or try to slip around in a scout....you are trying to change the outcome....you are trying.They are not.You should be MVP.You're doing all the work.
 
 Keep up the good work.Its hard to make a hack by yourself...and get swarmed by the opposing team.So you went negative.I understand how that feels.Been there myself.You got the lions share of the money.The bragging rights at the end that say "At least I tried,what did you do?"
