Calling yourself a 'top player' of a game that hasn't even released? The ego is large in this one.

  • Lol, the troll is large in this one too. I was referring to someone who was an upper tier player. At the time of making these videos I was number 36 on leader boards overall. And was still climbing. SO out of all the people who were playing...I was in the top 1% of players...a long with a bunch of others in the top 1%. If that doesn't speak as a "top" player, or someone who knows their way around a shooter, then I don't know what does. I have played shooters for years like many others, I feel as though I was just trying to give support and help out the community! But let the hating and the trolling continue! :P

  • Do you mean the [url=http://destinytracker.com/destiny/leaderboards/all]'total score' leaderboards[/url] from DestinyTracker.com? Those are mostly play-time (notice everyone at the top has hundreds of games). Personal score is also a deeply flawed measure of 'skill' since if you get a high one, your teammates necessarily get low ones (20K point limit). If you play with half-decent players it's hard to boost it up. DestinyTracker also doesn't keep track of even close to everyone - top 1% of 4.6 million would be 46,000 people. But I guess if you are near the 'top' of an arbitrary leaderboard you weren't technically wrong in what you said. So, sorry. I just think a little humility is nice, too. :)

  • He probably isn't a top player, but he seems pretty good. Especially if he mains Titan.

  • Lol I by no means think I am the best, not even close. But I do consider myself to know a decent amount of what I am talking about, and I feel as though I can break it down and explain stuff that probably comes natural to you and me, but not to others. THAT's all I am doing. Me claiming to be a top player was just more of me giving myself a little bit of credibility is all. I know me personally would much rather take advice from someone who has a KDR of 3.4, over someone who has a kdr of 1.2. I promise I wasn't intending to sound like a snob or show off, I can assure you I am not the best at this game by a long shot, and those leader boards aren't perfect like you said, I didn't mean for it to come off at all as a jerk, I was only just wanting to give people an idea that I have a pretty good understanding of what we are striving for.
