Patton never played with respawns.

I think it'd be ok but should also include team-oriented stats as well to encourage more team-play.
How many people did your medic res? How much health did your medic heal? How much damage did your medics shields absorb? Same thing for all the things an engineer can do. Are you mines being effective ect?

I think the list actually starts to get quite long come to think of it SOE did state that the whole purpose of the death screen was to show you how you died so that you learn from it and get better at the game or at least understanding the game, not to necessarily just show stats.

Ok...OK. Fucking stop this, beaten to death, went to the moon and back, argument over the effect of a visible K/D in the game. Thats NOT what the OP is about, that was just an example. My point was we see information about the people who killed us on the death screen and I think it would be cool to see a little bit of info about ourselves there too.

If you want to argue the semantics about the value of a K/D indicator in the game do a forum search and revive that dead horse so you can beat the shit out of it some more, but leave my thread out of it.

Could just list how mch xp you got that life. Which comes from kills, driving, suport, etc.

I'd like to see PS2 borrow from TF2 in this respect with career highlights and how the run you just had stacks up, like whether you've beaten personal bests, etc...

I'm not saying hats, just a summary of your achievements as they relate to your career as a whole.

I didn't say there should be hats
