Yeah I'd really love to have a "loose" camera that can sweep around in 3rd person view, although most of those implants sound a little too superpowered. I like the idea of increasing stamina with BR, but what about extending it even more so each level you get 5 points that you can add to your health or your stamina. That'd be killer!

I started reading your post, but your second point hints that you don't even play the game.

Sounds like you don't play the game, not until you reach BR 20 does your kills stay. Every time you go up in BR your kills are erased.

I'm BR 20 CR3, go check it out:

I got around 3-4k kills ever BR from 13-20. Every BR level your stats are erased.

Go and look at someones kills at level 16 or a good player will have 3000 kills before they level up. When they do level up their kills are reset to ZERO on website and in game stats. I tolaled up my kill for kill per BR and I have over 65,000 kills. GODJOEY for instance has his kills now (45,879) + 20K he got leveling up to BR20. So he has like 65,879 kills or so. I played for 2 months!!! He's been playing since the game came out. There could be a lot of players out there that are way better and we will never know it.

NOW the thing is, Sony doesn't offer "most kills in a period of time" or "kills to death ratio" stats. So you could play for two years, long after GODJOEY quits and have the most kills just, because you played longer. I want accuracy stats also (shots:misses ratio). Would be great.

Number of total kills says nothing about how good a player you are and its even worse the way they have it now, being erased every BR. A lot of people don't even notice this, most high BR players do.

I've had players named * and *|GM|*Second***9658;To***9658;None, they changed my names to Teal654 and Teal346, because people complained.

I know more about this game then almost anyone.

Exactly what i was gonna say AGENTDUCK.

Dont get mad at PS for erasing Stats evry new BR it takes quit a bit a space to store all those stats for all the players.

Reveller · 2003-10-14, 07:48 PM

Not getting mad at PS, just the guy above my post says he "got the hint, I don't even play the game..."

I hate when people tell you off and they themselves don't know the information.
LOL

I don't mind the stats being erased, as much as just the total kills...
They want people to be competitive not by kills, but by points. The game to them would be too competitive if it was all about the kills.

Bad Mojo · 2003-10-15, 12:50 AM

My kills have never reset and I've leveled up 18 times now.

Reveller · 2003-10-15, 08:16 AM

Well that is unique then.

6. Fix the freaking CAMERA view to allow 360 degree rotation, so many times have I needed to see what was behind me in the air, in battle or while hacking a control console. Its not like soldier's in real life can't look over their shoulder!!!

It was like that in beta. They didnt like that it like that, and changed it.

18 times here. As well. No erasage.

Doppler · 2003-10-15, 09:22 AM

Err yea my kills whould be higher but um, it's been erased every level, umm thats it.

TheRagingGerbil · 2003-10-15, 09:49 AM

Guess you could add a zero to the end of my kills as well...

Check out the link attached to my RagilusGerbilus stat sig. His stats have been tracked on hugh's since he was BR10. You can clearly see that the kill count was never reset.

The reason you think it keeps getting reset is every so often there is a database error and it shows zero's on all of you ingame stats. Log out, and log back in and every thing will be fine. Trust me, you are not losing any of your precious kills.

Reveller · 2003-10-15, 05:17 PM

That's a good idea about the database errors. That is probably the problem.
