TheOneAndOnlyT posted:Which also fucks with things because "aggression" is defined by the skill calculation as "kills per minute", which means your skill goes up way faster in modes like Rush because the action is so much more concentrated. Whenever I play a bunch of Rush my skill shoots up into the high 400s, and then it immediately drops as soon as I go play some other mode. Considering I could probably teach my 2 year old how to play full-time scout repair bitch, it probably doesn't make you a "skillful" player. But sometimes that's how I like playing Battlefield. The only stat I really care about is win rate. I like to win, and I don't like to lose. And if that's what our team needs most right now to win, I'm on it.

That's why I rarely get cap points. Once our team is taking a flag, I move on to put pressure on another. Or why if I capture an enemy vehicle, I'll play conservatively with it, closer to our spawn. My denying them one of their tanks is a lot more helpful than my going out and taking flags.

TheOneAndOnlyT posted:But that's my whole point. I mean yeah, there's a reason repair bitches are called repair bitches, but does it make them a "bad" player if it ends up helping their team win? Or to turn things the other way, what if you happen to be that scout chopper pilot going 50-0 due to your repair bitches, but your team loses? Are you a "bad" player because you didn't do enough to help your team win? How do you even judge that? You can't really. You have moved the goal posts here from talking about how a player statistic called "skill" is calculated to being a "good" or "bad" player.

Beelzebozo posted:You have moved the goal posts here from talking about how a player statistic called "skill" is calculated to being a "good" or "bad" player. Not really? My whole point since last night has been that you can't balance teams in any decent way because it's impossible to measure who is "good" and "bad". TheOneAndOnlyT posted:It's not really anyone's fault; when you have 32-man teams, drop-in/drop-out, and four ways players can be considered to be "together" (clan, platoon, squad, console party), it's basically impossible to "balance" the teams in a way that doesn't result in people getting split up. Frankly I'd much rather take a guarantee that you'll stick with your group between rounds (hint hint, DICE) over some harebrained team-balancing scheme that will never work.

bringer posted:It's like any other statistics system - there will be outliers and good days vs bad ones, but after a couple hundred hours it's likely that the averages hold true. Certain stats are more game-able than others (look at the two longest headshots, it's pretty clear that they traded those) and you can boost your win/loss into the stratosphere if you don't mind taking a hit on your finish percentage, but there are a few stats that when take together give you a very good idea of overall ability. Just to defend matt & Brat: that headshot distance is from carrier to carrier on Paracel. They didn't trade. They shot enemy wookies.

My SPM is 211. The vast majority of my points come from me hiding in a corner and shooting helicopters down with my stinger missile launcher, because it's easy. I'm not very good at this game I tried giving out ammo and health packs but the game seems way more stingy with giving you points for them now compared to BC2 and BF3.

In one game of floodzone Died from jumping off a jetski and being run over by it (x2) Died from APS failing to block TOW missile (no laser) (x2) LAV loses half health, flips upside down when I drive it into an empty rhib boat(x1) I'm missing a few, but man that was rage inspiring. Sorry Beastie/Nick the next game made up for it.

Shame, I really wanted to poo poo on that garbo clan that ran tow/citv lav. Honestly, I'm really considering bringing the server back just because I don't want to play crap like Shanghai, Hainan, or Flood Zone. Even loving Locker is fun now that we run mortar pain squads on the outside, but those three maps? Holy poo poo are they bad and boring. Hell, even loving Zavod (Someguy and Fastest can back me up on how bad that map is on 360) is fun since I can farm the center points with the mbt or we can run LAV pain-train squads on the outside lanes. thenicko33 fucked around with this message at 07:13 on Aug 6, 2014 |
