Death stats.

As many already know, in Planetside 2 you can be revived after being killed and not have it count as a death. That so, if you're revived. I know that those stats go into the regular "Players" stats on the PS2 website, but I was looking at the stats here and it game me about a .1 difference on here Example (2.3 on the PS2 website, here, 2.27) Meaning it doesn't really acquire the revives on here so that it doesn't count as a death. Will this be fixed? or it will stay this way?

You're risking to start a hot debate here about how the existense of stats affects the gameplay and how unfair having a medic in your team reviving you is, stat-wise.

Well, if the PS2 site can configure the right stats, why can't this one? I don't intend to start a debate. Just askin'.

Something something API. Ask Gryphon, he'd know.

I'm not sure he would know either - it's a question for the SOE Data guys.

The not counting deaths only counts for your session k/d. The overall k/d stat of your character is not affected by revives.

For example: Since the change, my avg session k/d has been about 4.5, but my overall k/d has been rising and dropping and overall not really moving away from 3.2
