Me and guy got into an argument over how K/D is found and such. Mainly the argument was over if you had to add a 0.00 K/D (because i was sending a message and then kicked from a game)
i was saying you had to put in the 0.00 in to find the average K/D and he said ya dont because "no kills or deaths were added so the K/D wont change"
So can someone tell me how the average K/D system works in destiny please?
It's total kills / total deaths (+suicides)
If you get a 0 due to leaving a match with no kills/deaths it does not affect your overall k/d
It's why so many people back out of a match when they see they're not playing scrubs
It's kills per match divided by deaths per match. If you don't die, it's the same as dying once since you can't divide by zero so 5 kills and 0 deaths would give you 5/1 for a K/D of 5. I don't think I've ever had a game where I died but had zero kills, but I assume it works the other way too, where say you had 0 kills and 5 deaths, it would calculate it as 1/5 and give you a .2 K/D. I'm not sure, but zero kills and zero deaths would most likely give a 0 K/D and not be counted in overall calculations.
Edit: As RhinoDon pointed out, giving you a >0 K/D for 0 kills and multiple deaths doesn't make sense, so you get 0.0 in that case.
