NoobDisasterOnline: Started playing in March, earning money fast. Bought a brand new CDA-3C with XL300 LB10X 3MG and Flamer (pre LB10X, MG buffs). Cadet bonus runs out; worst grind ever kicks in. Fast forward 8 months, finally decide to try out the "meta". Buy a Jenner-F. Wow, this game is easier with jump jets.

I look at all the sadness and arguing above.

Have only this to say

I really could care less about K/D ratios i posted my own to show how pointless they are as everyones rig is different every ones circumstances are different

If people are doctoring or using alt/phantom accounts to inflate their personal k/d ratio then its rather sad, and shows how shallow these people are.

People arguing about if its false or not well, that's kind of shallow as well ,because its just showing that you don't want to admit someone might possibly be better than you at zapping pixel robots.

be nice if people would grow up stop playing measure the sausage, behind the bike sheds, stop acting like 12 year olds

I kind of agree but you are missing what a lot of people on this thread have picked up on, Piipu is posting stats from his alt - maybe they are correct but many people on this thread tend to differ that they are correct because of the inconsistencies. I couldn't give a **** if they are right or wrong but to score an Average of 755 points of damage per game in Jenner as his posted stats indicate must mean he's a legend on any map and if so I take my hat off. . .
But don't get me wrong, to me, K/d ratio does in no way what so ever is any indication of a better player and basically nobody's arguing about admitting there's a better player out there (cos i know I'm sh!te) it's all been about the dubious stats that were posted - nothing else. Still waiting on Piipu posting HIS actual stats and not his "infamous" ALT but that probably wont happen but hey ho.

It would be great if an actuary was among us (or PGI) to work on a formula that would kind of sort out a unique stats reflecting one's global effectiveness.

There are enough numbers to play around and get something out of those to reflect this I believe.

Maybe a mix of all stats from Mechs with at least 20 games played could be considered, or only Elite Mechs (mean played enough that you should know exactly how to fully take advantage of the chassis). Then throw in a mix of K/D ratio with Damage done for each Mech and maybe partial weapons stats that would help tell how effective a player is with a particular Mech.

All this computed all together to finish up with a single number globally telling how good or bad a player is.

Would that be even possible? Or there are meaningless stats that would make this, well... still meaningless?

They could track match score...I mean that is what I usually care about and as long as I am top 3 I feel like I played well.

My KDR's just 0.93 - since I have a fondness for mediums, but pug nearly 100% nowadays.

My only mech that I play regularly with a positive KDR is my CTF-3D.

Thankfully, my WLR's above 1, at least - but it's still just 1.09 after about 2700 matches. Guess ELO works for me, huh?

2) That number does not count draws so it is inaccurate.

right, so the number of total matches should still be higher, even more so if you count the draws in...

Ellen Ripley, on 26 November 2013 - 03:22 PM, said:

- The wins and loses combined are 1872, when the total number of matches played is shown as 1869.

and it´s not
ILYA MUROMETS 767 365 400 0.91

see? it´s 2 draws in 767 matches

SHADOW HAWK SHD-2D2 104 55 47 1.17


2 draws...and so on...the total number MUST always be equal or higher than the win/loss combined

the only occasion that COULD cause a negative total would be a match that was not counted as a match but accounted as a win or loss... never seen that happen though

While we discuss stats, do you think PGI should add the option of making those public?

They would default to not public and in settings we would be able to select to enable public viewing.

Like this post if you like the idea.

[Alex Warden]

i don´t care enough about stats to even think about public stats

all i care about is ripping epeen demonstration apart if possible

Best mech K/DR is in my sole, only basic efficiency Stalker 3F which i got to see how easy the 4PPC build was before ghost heat, which is at 4.21 after 58 matches, some of which were with other builds which dropped it down a bit.

My main ride is the Awesome 9m which sits at
AWESOME AWS-9M 944 517 426 1.21 1,117 438 2.55 351,354 612,501 4 days 02:33:39

Although the majorty of those matches was before the PPC heat increase killed the build (3PPC 3ML). I now run a frankenbrawler with large and med lasers and a couple of cheeky SRMs and do ok if the enemy team isn't full of metawhoring poptarts.

with all my mechs im above 1 but I have probs with the CPTL- C1 is really hard.

C1 is really difficult, try using the stock build, 4 ML + 2 LRM 15, upgrade to an XL 300 and mount BAP. You bomb on kids really well, and dedicating tonnage for Artemis and decreasing your upclose defenses with a TAG aren't worth it. Smarter to just play defensively, stay with your group.

Overall: 0.39.

Not sure If I posted here already but whatever .

I play to smash steel and earn C-Bills. I could care less about the ratio to be honest (although I am trying to run the numbers up on some of my Mechs).

That may be the downside about how grinding is implemented... I would say you're not alone grinding for C-Bills and XP to elite. We see players who enter game and go suicide rushing in ennemy only to quit and move to next game ASAP (with another Mech of course since that one won't be available until game is completed). I think that's how you can get such a low ratio, and also the fact that one is simply a bad player.

I don't suicide rush (normally). I just fight for the sake of making things explode (sometimes I spectate but when I need my money I leave and go to the next match). And yeah, I am not too good at the game (plus I get more kill assists than anything) .

[Spr1ggan]

Highest I got mine was a measly 2.43 or something like that, then it all went to **** and has been on the downward spiral since. Sitting at 1.91 and dropping.

At 0.19 i have to be the very worst ever.

I have to wonder how that compares to his W/L ratio <-- not laughing at you

The mechs with my best W/L tend to have my lower end K/D, it takes a lot of effort, skill, and luck to kill someone in a 4MG locust

Having said that.... I agree with the 2nd quote there, and even... second it.
