Yeah I am bored waiting for the update. So I am going to ramble.
Another stat thread, how amazing is that.
Can you imagine if the actual stats for winning was based solely on survival and winning ?
Think about it.
If you are destroyed in any match and the team wins it still counts as a defeat for you.
If you lose a match but survive it still counts as a loss.
Eventually most people would stop playing the game due to the lower stat rating for WINS.
WG knows that, regardless of what people claim, stats are still important even on a personnel level.
In order to keep people interested in playing a game one must device a stat system that will still
give a higher number above 50% that is easy to attain or at least not too difficult.
Therefore WG devised a stat system based on team win rather than individual wins.
They also added a survival rating for strange people like me.
Currently my Win rate sits at around 60% ( a little higher but it is an example )
My survival rate is at 48% yet some of those matches I survived were losses.
After much thought and guesstimating I would think
that my win rate based on my idea of survival only wins would be around 35%.
That would be enough for me to give up playing this game. So glad WG has the stat system they do.
