I thought I would keep track of 300 deaths in game. These are the results.

132. By sniper.

87. Run over.

38. By tank.

43. By every other weapon in game, from grenades to knives.


Over 85% of these deaths were to 3 weapons. I think this says a lot about this game.

Make of it what you will CCP.

Raw numbers?

Taken with grains of salt

Actually they look very accurate ...Red-line snipers are swarming all over the place, LAV kills are as regular as re-spawning in the battle, Tanks with their HIGH resistances are every where.. specially in the red-line.

High Resists? You're a funny guy.

More info please, such as what game mode and what suit/weapon do you run?

well if you die buy snipers the most its easy dont stand there or run in a line its very rare for me to die by red line snipers or get run over not saying it dont happen but i die mostly from mass fire from flay lock noobs that need to dump 2+ clips at my feet when that fails they stat tossing contact nades at me lol.

but when you know what most people are doing its not hard to foresee whats to come an stay out if its way, now if you are like most of the blue dots that seem to run around some times on the field like they are headless chickens which is rather funny to watch some times.

Same for LAV's.

Yup, you're right too, I must get some of these vehicle grenades I've heard about, apparently it only takes 1 to take down one of those yellow jeeps.

Thanks for the help.

Lai Dai's take 4 to kill me. 1 PC shot and 1 swarm and 2 nades would do me in too.

OH !

So you're saying I need to use millions of skill points to go against your 300 thou SP jeep, and stand a chance

Also more millions to get a decent suit and side arm to protect myself against infantry at the same time you're trying to run me down.

Yup, sounds legit I'll do that in six months or so, thanks again.

@ J Pearson.

Almost exclusively skirmish. Mostly on American servers.

Cko. Either GEK 38 or GLU 5.

50% solo 50% in squad.

Lol hes talking about his tank duuu. Lol at thread. QQ I get killed by wepons designed to do just that. My AR cant solo everything waaaaaa waaaaaaaaa+á.

I somewhat agree.

I reckon about 70% of my deaths come from being run over by LAVs. They don't seem to need much speed to do so, and sometimes, well, a lot of times, they are quiet to the point where its already too late.

Its not that my REs or indeed my flux MD combo don't kill enough of them, its just that its not really any fun. I know HTFU go to fish and whatnot.

Say whatever you want, having a FPS game where getting run over by free LAVs is the biggest threat in a standard pub game is just in serious bad taste. All the "adapt or die" and HTFU people can be my guess and keep saying that until the rest of this puny playerbase takes their hats and leaves....

Perhaps its time for Dust to "adapt or die"?

Wow I'm surprised anyone gets nearly half of their deaths from snipers - they're not that hard to avoid, especially after the first death from them so you know where to avoid.

The LAVs are a huge problem though and everyone knows it - CCP must be seeing the numbers but I'm astounded they haven't done anything about it yet.

132. By sniper.

87. Run over.

38. By tank.

The only thing these numbers tell me is that you spend WAY to much time out in the open playing with yourself. How about instead.. You train up your Shotgun skills get get into the middle of the battle. Then we would see different numbers.

Stop giving biased information, Playstyle affects these numbers alot more then anything being OP.

I always in the heat of the battle... which is why i get kill by snipers, road kill by LAV's, and ambush by tanks ...what you just said doesn't make any sense.
