blah... I lost 9,000+ returns over 100's of hours of game time and don't really care... To be honest the stats page should just be done away with...

[Err0r]

yeah that stats could be done away with but it is also nice to see how your progress and to see if you have bettered yourself

[MortalPlague]

I agree... I've been playing UT quite a bit over the past month or so (at least quite a bit more than usual) and I'd like to see my stats when the page gets updated. ;)

progress yes.. as in it's sort of neat to see how many frags with what wep.. but as for any showing as to the "better yourself" they don't show that in any way shape or form.. the rank is 100% worthless as to how good a player is or is not..

main reason I would like to see them go is too many still play for stats... even when I had the most returns on the server out of any other player.. I NEVER cared if someone else returned a flag from a runner I killed, just get it returned...

Oh but the stat whores start the bitching.. sigh... "that was my cap/return and so on" sigh... I sort of shocked anyone even checks them anymore to be honest.. Warmaster being in the top ranks should really show how worthless the rank really is :)

It's a good tool to help a newer player along, but as to showing who's the best of the best..I don't think so.

CTF is a TEAM game.

Play like most of us do here and you'll have a great UT game.

[SloththeShovel]

Stats are cool. A sense of having been here and how many have perished by your hand. It's a fun thing.

[War Master]

Blah Blah Blah, I'm jealous. Maybe they made it as CTF points (depending on your control on every game) meaning how you actually play the game in the server. It's what is called "Do the right thing", you get points for defending your FC and if He gets killed you can pick up the flag and score if possible and you get a percentage of the points depending on the time you carried the flag. That right there shows the kind of a team player you are and the stats show what you're actually doing on games by giving you points. And as for me, checking my stats tells me what I need to do more on my games, it allows me to see where I need to improve for my team plays. Is that simple.

I think the stats are perfect and it shows the Unreal CTF skills.;)

If you're one of those people that like to be hunting down EFCs all the time on every game, month after month after month, probably you're a "YAHOO":loopy: that don't realize CTF is all about team work and I mean doing everything possible to control your team scores which leads you to win the match. :spank:

The only thing I find usefull about the stats page is my weapon percentages. Afterall the rest of the numbers mean absolutely nothing.

number one thing you could do to improve is stop being a jack### on the server and bitching that everyone who is better then you (like me) must in some way be running some cheat/bot/radar/whatever....

second thing is when you are in the game the goal is to have the "team" capture the flag.. not just "you" so when the runner heads off with the flag, and a belt and so on.. You should do what most of us do, as in cover him.. not what I see you do.. hang around in the other teams base, waiting for your runner to "fail" so you can grab the flag and then cap...

that fact that you felt the needs to make muti-player to try to hold mutispots on the stat page more or less sums up all your idea on team work.... your a stat whore and just like any other stat whore they point to it and go "I be good, look at the stats"..

Eh but as long as you keep quiting when I join games being you know your "ez" caps are over.. I'm happy.. :)

as i have told you in game as you scream over and over and over that I have some cheat running.. number of people asking me to be banned.. Zero.. Number asking for you to be banned? more then I can rem now.. yeah great community player........ :scratch:

Word.

[Dorkorama]

Back on-topic and out of the fire . . .

Stats don't show : People who slow down the FC hunters and die protecting without making a kill.
When a player suicides to get back to the uncovered base ASAP and stop enemies from taking the flag.
Patrollers who clear out choke points and keep the pick-ups available for their team.
Boosting.
Stopping an enemy from picking up your dropped flag.
Relic-assisted flag captures.
None of these are nescesarily good nor bad, just what happens in almost every game and beneath the 'Scoring RADAR.'

[War Master]

You just dont get it hah? :hammer:

[Squirrelinabox]

THe stats are an ok general guidline... emphasis on GENERAL GUIDLINE. They are by no means too accurate, but in general, the people that are in the top 100 are probably better than the people in the bottom 100. Now is the #1 player better than the #100 player? Don't know.

I don't want to attack people and such, but lets take the last 2 people ont he first page as of this moment. We have toymaker and PAINKILLA. I fear toymaker more than just about anybody on the top30. He could easily be the #1 spot if he tried, just as many of us could. His killing abilities scare the hell out of me and he does seem to play decently as a team. He should definately be above many on the list. Everybody here would pick toymaker over war master any day.

Now Painkilla shouldn't even be near the top 100 IMO. Hopefully it isn't an alias for somebody, but this person seems to run around like a chicken with its head cut off. Rarely does anything but spam flak around. If he is on my team, he will shoot me more than the other team, and I find myself having to worry about him more than the enemy.

Now both these players are ranked right next to each other... yet their abilities are so incredibly different... This is just one obvious example of how the stats should be taken with a grain of salt. And if you use them to judge your own progress then you are clearly oblivious to anything and everything UT.

As long as I'm at the top-- it's all about me. ME ME ME!!!!!
