PSA: Your K/D doesn't matter.
I always come across comments with people saying, "well your kd says otherwise."
It's a game. Enjoy it.
When I'm playing crucible, I will play to help my team and do the best I can, but I also have fun with it and I couldn't care less what my stats are. I saw a post where someone was saying their K/D was low because they let their little brother play on his character some times. There's no need to make excuses for your stats. Play the game whatever way you want. If having a great K/D is what you strive for, then all means, slay away! I just don't like the trend in the community to alienate people for a stat that doesn't matter. This is a game. Have fun with it!
Cheers guardians!

I'm in top 10% of captured zones last I checked on my original account.

Lol. My son and I have two accounts and we play them both. It's my crap pvp skills which are the drag on his KD. Hahaha. Our clan mates laugh about it! Look at Kg. top 1% in kills.... Yea that's the son. Look at Kg. top 1% in deaths... Yea, that's the dad. It took me about 6 solid months to start going positive. 9 months to stay positive. My son would need 10000 3.0 kd matches to balance out all of my .3 matches I've had over the year.

3 RepliesK/D doesn't matter....completely. It does show a....guess of sorts. Though for the most part its complete crap. I mean you first start off in pvp, typically don't do good. takes abit to get better at it. Those stats you had at the start stick with you. Not to mention one match you can be against people that are MLG's of Destiny. Next match you could be going against people that still don't know how to get heavy ammo. Even with trials of Osiris. There's people that are really good that went to the lighthouse during the week already, and they stay playing just to pick off people that aren't as good. Ruining K/D's and the works. Theres no real way in this game as of yet to legitly match people against those of the same skill level to get a more accurate reading. Soooo yeah whoever says K/d actually means something 100 percent, is usually your typical d-bag.

These forums need more people like you. *Gives thumbs up*

4 RepliesThe better your K/D the more you suck at real life

But who will I brag to now about my 1 k/d? Who I ask. Who?!

5 RepliesYour KD says otherwise

I'll often play the foil in crucible and lure folk out so teammates can get good shots. One death v. the two or three gunning for me seems to make sense. I'm not that good at PvP anyhow, and while I care about stats and getting better, any way I can help my team, I'll do it. Sometimes, that means just not dying. I can do that, too.

8 RepliesIf you have a high K/D, it means you're a stat whore, non-objective playing, sweaty, lagging, pubstomping, crutch abusing scrub.
-
Unless you go .5 and your team comforts you as the sole support Defender. Feels like the Sunbreakers shot my puppy, then my friends accidentally stepped on its neck killing it instantly... ...well, time to get better weapons.
-
I don't care about K/D in games like this where I can't even see my K/D in game and others can't as well. Pointless.

Edited by Cowboybebop: 10/14/2015 7:33:19 PMYour kd is garbage. I want to see somone with atleast 1.5+ make somthing like this...
-
My K/D sucks, but couldn't care less. I enjoy playing team objective games and am willing to charge in to try to actually grab objective points, hold them, and such. I don't determine my life worth off of how good or bad I am at a video game. I enjoy playing the game and talking with my friends. I always want to do the best that I can, but if I have a bad game and get owned, so be it. I can accept the fact that there are people at any particular game that are better than I am. Don't need to make excuses.

1 ReplyIt seems to matter to people who think that their skill in a video game somehow translates into something in real life. *shrug* I'll save everyone the time of checking my k/d in an effort to make fun of me: it's 0.9.
-
Well, it might not matter to you. But I do enjoy my uphill battle to try and get it better. That's just me.
-
PSA - your K/D does matter.
-
7 RepliesIt's a reflection of how big your party is. When looking at two people of equal skill, the one that plays with parties constantly will have a noticeably higher K/D.
-
1 ReplyI think kdr does matter. What doesn't matter though is grimoire score.
-
2 RepliesThat is good, because I have a zero K/D. Can you guess why?
-
6 RepliesLogically kd is only relevant in rumble, the other modes are team games. The important thing is too have fun, if you don't like randoms charging in, work on finding a team. Met some great people through Destiny and we have a good laugh.

Well, you're not joining my team with a 0.1 kd. So it means something imo

Edited by Odezur: 10/14/2015 2:55:11 PMKD doesn't mean anything. it especially shouldn't mean anything for people who are good at crucible. Any pvper worth their salt knows about sweaties and knows you can't maintain a high KD playing sweats. Some of the players with extremely average looking stats on destiny tracker are the best pvpers in the game because all they do is play sweaties against the other best players in the game

52 RepliesEdited by TrueVanguard: 10/13/2015 3:24:45 PMIn a game with no competitive lobbies, ranked playlists, or private matches... nope K/D is a meaningless stat. And frankly, if you're paired up against the right people (A.K.A if matchmaking was executed perfectly) then you "shouldn't" have a KD over 1.5 A 1.5 KD in MLG ranked playlist in halo was greater than a 4.0 in social. Until we get ranked/private matches, stats are just numbers and nothing more.
