1) Warpoints earned per death ratio
2) ISK/AUR destroyed per death ratio
3) ISK/AUR lost per death ratio
4) ISK/AUR destroyed/lost efficiency percent compared to rest of team
5) ISK/AUR destroyed/lost efficiency percent compared to everyone in the match
Basically, if Dust is about mercenaries, the only stats that matter are ISK/AUR related stats. Let WPD take the place of KDR to give a better (not perfect) measure of combat skill. Then, let the money talk and the bullshit walk.
Put KDR in small print somewhere off to the side of the stats screen to appease the CODdies, BF'ers and MAGbbys.
I like this idea. KDR, within the current build/system, is ridiculously disproportionate compared to what it would ACTUALLY look like in the big leagues.
I think that the only fans of CoD, BF, MAG, Halo, or any other proven game that would be concerned with their KDR in DUST, are here exploiting the weaknesses in it because they cant hang in the big leagues. 47-0 is meaningless when 75% of your kills are cheaply unearned by killing defenseless spawns and 'tank sniping'.
I think it would reflect performance better if the statistics separated Infantry kills from vehicles kills OR it would be cool if there were a destruction stat that reflected how many vehicles, installations, and structures were destroyed.
And then another support stat and/or an assist stat.
I guess my idea would just separate the WP into different categories. IDK, I think my battle stats would look like this:
K/D Destruction (BOOM) Support (AST) Hacking (HAK) Commissions (COM) WP
BOOM would be all WP from destroying vehicles, installations, and structures. AST tracks all WP from assists, respawns, resupplies, repairs, and whatever else in this category. HAK is pretty self explanatory. COM would note how many WP gained from Squad Leader commissions and Precision Strikes.
Hopefully something along these lines will display in everyone's profile.
It would also be interesting to see the +/- of winners payout vs. losers payout. At the end of every match.
