Two quick questions!!
So here's my question(or rather, several questions)
After each question I'll add my reason for asking it right underneath.
1. What qualifies one as a "casual" gamer?
-I have 89 hours in, lvl 27, I play everyday, and ALL day when I don't work. (I work twelve hours shifts 0600-1800). I feel like I'm pretty good in PvP, although I have bad games, yes.I enjoy the bounties and farming for items I need to upgrade and I do it often. Am I considered a "casual"?
2. What defines a "good" K/D?
-Mine is at, what, 1.12? 1766 Kills and 1573 Deaths? I mean, the only FPS games I've played seriously (at least PvP) are the Halo series. I used to be really good back with Halo 3/Reach, but my K/D ratio was negative. Regardless though, I feel like I'm a good player now, but I've seen others bash on players with K/Ds similar to mine. Why? It's positive,no? So that means I get more kills than I do die, and if THATS not enough, then what is a good ratio then? (not sarcasm, I mean for real. I have no idea :o)
3. I was going to ask a question regarding the people hate on this game, but I think there are enough topics about that already, no? What HASN'T been said. I enjoy playing the game, I do realize that I am being(to some degree) cheated on money, but so be it. It's fun, and at least they're -trying- to keep the game going, and applying patches/updates that reflect information from the players, right?

The arm-chair-commandos on the internet generally believe playing an FPS of any type turns one into a "casual gamer", or if they simply play a game to play it. (This info has been gathered by me from what I've read on posts created by a few "hardcore" gamers.) 2: K/D means absolutely nothing. At all. It's a worthless stat that most people use as another form of an "E-peen". As such, people wobble about, insulting those with a K/D lower than their own, as if it were a measure of legitimate worth. However, what people define as a "good" K/D is a number generally above 2.0 or 2.5, but again I wouldn't pay much attention to it, as it's a stat people just flaunt in order to feel more important than others. (Unless the flaunting is in a generally non-hostile manner. Such as discussing one's own K/D with a friend or clan-mate.) I have to say you should just not worry about crap like this. Play the game the way that allows you to enjoy it the most. Don't care how good or bad your statistics are, they don't actually matter. What matters is enjoying the game you've got.
