What would be cool and I am sure a LOT of people would pay for would be a KILL/DEATH ratio or a WIN/LOSS ration Hologram sitting on their dashboard.

So many people seem to be obsessed about this, so why not give them a place to display it in their cockpit.

BASIC
It would get the value at the start of the game and display that for that match.

ADVANCED
It would get the value at start of the game and would even update during the match, this way when you get a kill you see it refresh (with maybe a cool graphic)./

Sure why not?

[LordBraxton]

would make the game even more of an epeen contest

[Applecrow]

I voted yes for it to exist, but I wouldn't buy one. I just want to see how many people care that much about KDR to boast about a meaningless stat.

[hammerreborn]

That would freak me out, because then I know the pilot has died before, and that poptard is being piloted by a....


ZOMBIEEEEEEEEE

[Mechteric]

How about just a holographic Kill counter instead (total lifetime kills)? That sounds like something that would be more reasonable and in-universe (and doesn't show off as much since you'll have more kills the more you play whether you are good or not).

Monetizing on the epeen contest, not a bad idea actually.

[JimSuperBleeder]

We don't need more reasons for people to be non-team players.

Just an FYI - I have a negative KID ratio.

Just thought thought it would be something people would like.

I do like the idea of just Kill ratio (in relation to BTUniverse though).

ooh ooh make a giant metal dong an balls sticking out in front of your mech that gets bigger with kills. that's what people want!

(sorry couldnt help it)

[FrostCollar]

Definitely not.

[Deathlike]

Technically.. this stuff is better off on the mini-screens than a MC add on...

lol, good one, mate

[Lokust Davion]

lols lotsa bad players voted no hahaha

[Zerberus]

If somebody needs to stroke their "ego" that badly, why not.

But there`s no way in hell I would ever buy one or even use one given to me as a gift.

And that`s why I voted no, the questions were specifically if "I" would buy or use one, and the answer to those is universally no.

It needs a few things, though:

1. an elabrate animation every time the number changes up OR down. ideally causing a 5-10 fps drop. Maybe a huge blinding flash of blue light everytime a kill is scored and the screen bathed in red when a death is scored.

2. SOUNDS: UT style "multikill"" ultrakiill" "mo-mo-mo-mooonsterkill" on multiple kills in a certain timeframe, and "you useless ******* n00b on all deaths

3. A Marking Beacon outside the mech so other can see who to count on for actual teamplay and who will probably just be intersted in "hulk now go smash".

SO not sitting around at home with their wang out looking for the next ego stroke to pay money for makes people bad players... Interesting logic...(though I`m not sure if you`re being serious or not)

Maybe if the poll had an option "do you want one in game" enough people could vote "don`t care" to properly illustrate the difference between "do you personally have to **** all the time" and "does it bother you when others ****" , which this ione unfortunately does not

i like your idea even if its a little bit straight forward, would you consider adding an item representing your k:d ratio ? what if you had a d.i.l.d.o. on your dashboard, the bigger the k:d the bigger the d.i.l.d.o.

now if you would see someones dashboard with a massive d.i.l.d.o. bouncing left and right, i think you would get an idea that you dont want to mess with this guy!

they also could come in different colours and textures, the more the merier

You mean like ribbed, knobbed, and classic?

[Deathlike]

I think this got a recent vote bump...

Anyways, why isn't this in the thread for stuff you'd pay for?

[Lord of All]

No, It's bad enough tards don't team play. This would Skew the game even farher to a deathmatch mentality.

I personally take pride in dieing when forcing half the other team to focus on me while my teamates core thier backs.
