NutritionalValue Posted September 17, 2014 Share Posted September 17, 2014 No, the only stat I care about in the end mission is player damage done percentage and upgrades picked up (to see if I missed some) I feel bad if I don't contribute enough unless it was a rush mission in voids (capture, exterminate) and other people should feel bad if my damage contribution is like >50% in defense or survival missions. People that care about kill counts, especially in defense or mobile defense and run off far away from the mission objective just to get kills is annoying though.

ThunderZsolt Posted September 17, 2014 Share Posted September 17, 2014 when i was low level, i was happy, when i had more kills, than a MR8 guy in the lobby. Then my sweet memories crashed, when i was actually derping with bad guns in low levels at MR8, for leveling them before selling Now in public matches there are times, when i have 5% with an unranked set, or someone brings a saryn nuker to level her etc, and when i level stuff after the 3rd-6th forma, i easily hit 40% most of the time, but that is because i have maxed mods, and also have the potato and enough forma to put them on my weapons. TL,DR: having the most kills/dmg only means that you had the best equipment in that mission, not that you are the best Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Valafor Posted September 17, 2014 Share Posted September 17, 2014 I do care to some extent. I do not care if I am not #1, but I do care about not being able to shoot because people are being a hog near spawn. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
C.Aether Posted September 17, 2014 Share Posted September 17, 2014 I only care about if I can be a effective teammate,keep myself alive and help the others. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Ailissa Posted September 17, 2014 Share Posted September 17, 2014 I main Trinity.... I care as much about kills as I do about Brussell Sprouts ... and i'm not a fan of those. My only concern from start to finish is making sure no one dies and we finish the mission. Yeah I get kills, yeah I do a decent portion of damage dealt but i'll never be that person with 600 kills compared to everyone else's 50. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
(XBOX)ShapelessHorr0r Posted September 17, 2014 Share Posted September 17, 2014 No. of kills? no. Dmg contribution, yes. I don't wanna be that guy that only contributes 3% dmg to my team. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
MagPrime Posted September 17, 2014 Share Posted September 17, 2014 Number of kills doesn't bug me, I know I did my best to support the team and finish the mission. That's enough for me. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
(PSN)Fbeast2 Posted September 17, 2014 Share Posted September 17, 2014 (edited) Only while playing in an extermination mission. After the mission is over the stats are meaningless. I look at the rewards and then the xp then exit, in that order. Edited September 17, 2014 by (PS4)Fbeast2 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Syntax3Error Posted September 17, 2014 Share Posted September 17, 2014 Honestly i do care about the kills but only if there is an affinity mission when i need to rank stuff :P Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Trcgg Posted September 17, 2014 Share Posted September 17, 2014 personally i couldn't care less about numbers of kills and statistics, i try and make missions as easy as possible for the team. considering i primarily play t4 and extremely high level defence. i usually get max kills anyway even when using a non dps or damage based frame because i end up having to save people 24/7 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Vastaren Posted September 17, 2014 Share Posted September 17, 2014 I'm too insecure not to care :( I know I shouldn't, but I do. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Stakhanov Posted September 17, 2014 Share Posted September 17, 2014 I care about the damage dealt. But it's hard to let anyone have a shot. Every weapon of both mine and my friends are like 4 forma'd and better, and both us end up scoring 35+% of the damage and anyone else we play with struggles to score 10% of the damage. I think the damage is the main contribution. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Dzwsin Posted September 17, 2014 Share Posted September 17, 2014 Yes but no. I feel happy when I get the most because I remember being new and always being at the bottom. However if I dont get the most I dont really care. I still had fun. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
ServareVitas Posted September 17, 2014 Share Posted September 17, 2014 I only care about the objective. When you're engaged you're only required to defeat your enemy. Number of kills is sadly a childish nuisance that more often than not handicaps the team greatly. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Ventura_Highway Posted September 17, 2014 Share Posted September 17, 2014 Yes, because when the other guy is runninng with a Boltor Prime, I have a Machete, and I wanna see how much face i can wreck with one. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
H.Katsura_999 Posted September 17, 2014 Share Posted September 17, 2014 (edited) When I'm only using a melee weapon while the others use boltor primes and I get the most kills, dmg done, and the least dmg received then yes. I want to display that proudly. Edited September 17, 2014 by H.Katsura_999 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
SilentMobius Posted September 17, 2014 Share Posted September 17, 2014 I care but only in the context of preferring to not be at the bottom. It's just a vague "I like to feel I contributed" metric. Don't care who's at the top. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Twilight053 Posted September 17, 2014 Share Posted September 17, 2014 When playing with my alt, I do my best to attain the most kill despite being only MR3. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

marelooke Posted September 17, 2014 Share Posted September 17, 2014 (edited) It's pretty great to be on top of damage/kills in a (mobile) defense as Frost even though you didn't move an inch from the console/pod while everybody else is running around like the idiots they are while leaving the console undefended just to get kills. Other than that, don't care, as long as I don't feel like I'm being carried or carrying people (was with a bunch of rank 2/3's in a Ceres defense the other day, extracted after 10 waves as I was pretty much soloing it, aside of having to pick up the rank 7 Ash (yes, he was using a rank 7 frame in a Ceres defense, the highest rank item he had on him was his melee at rank 9, his conclave was <300, for what that is worth) all the time all over the map. Which was pretty annoying.) Edited September 17, 2014 by marelooke Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
KingTaro Posted September 17, 2014 Share Posted September 17, 2014 Yes, if I'm not leveling anything. No, if I'm leveling something. But, since there isn't anything left for me to level, it's always amusing to confuse the hell out of Penta spammers who can't manage to outgun a melee player.

AsagiBoogers Posted September 17, 2014 Share Posted September 17, 2014 Eh, not really, but if i can, I try to avoid only contributing something like 3% of the total damage. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Sloan441 Posted September 17, 2014 Share Posted September 17, 2014 Don't particularly care. I play the game a certain way and it'll be what it will be. If there are a couple of rushtards in an invasion or exterminate, chances are I'm going to be at less than 5%. If it's a survival, I'll probably be around 50%+, or at least in the same ballpark as everyone else if they know what they're about. It is what it is. I don't worry about it.

Latronico Posted September 17, 2014 Share Posted September 17, 2014 About the number of kills that a profile has, yes. Because it shows the player's history. But the question is about the number of kills shown at the end of a match, so no. I care about how every player do his/her work. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
MeduSalem Posted September 17, 2014 Share Posted September 17, 2014 To hell with the kills for various reasons already stated in the thread. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
