Will we get the KD shown on Mortal Online Stats ? Do you want that the KD to be displayed ?

[Anabolic Man]

i'm a little bit afraid that displaying the KD wil result in very toxic Gameplay. I ran into quite a few KD worriors, back in the days i played MO1.
One of this K/D Worriors was named Achilles from the Guild AQ. A guy that could not loose. He reskilled all Players 20 times at the Prist, to push his KD. He had like 3000 Kills to 10 deaths.
He was only going outside in his Cronite Armor and Oghnium Weapon, and had always 3 personal Healers on him. It was a good Player, but also a toxic KD Worrior, that could not loose. This guild didn't even shy away from corrupting the GMs to win the fight, becuase they could not loose. I remember a day when i got traded from a Gm 10 times in a row, in mid of a fight, who wanted me to accept some shit, i do not wanted to have in my inventory.

I am so happy that Starvault learned something after the victory over AQ in Gaul Kur and the following Behavior of AQ, that made several people quit the game.
Do you want that SV will display the K/D Ratio, on the Mortal Online 2 Stats site, or do you think this could lead to toxic behavior, as in many games that have a KD Ratio, such as in the Rockstar Games. K/D Worriots always focus on the Noobs, that do not stand a chance. There will always some people that attack noobs and i did that aswell, from time to time, but the people that do that for their stats are pathetic and will reskill the noobs at the Prist. IMO a reason, why many people quitted the game. Other people like me get motivated by such a bagabior. It felt so good to reskill the members of AQ 1000 times at the Priest in Gaul Kur. Robes were crafted from their skin, and the cut off heads were cooked with pepper and and various spices and sendto their Mailboxes, to make them rage.

Meta data generally shouldn't be shown outside of the game. If at all maybe something that doesn't have to do with repetition like actual achievements that mean something.

 

[Eldrath]

Nothing of the kind. It creates false incentives and ultimately will only limit creative energy.

Not to mention that nearly every statistic was gamed or exploited at one point or another.

 

[Skydancer]

None of those stats suit MO. This is a game to forge reputation by word of mouth and deeds rather than logged statistics. As others have said, its easy to game these in trivial ways, so they are in no way correlated to actual achievement and cannot be used to assess the worth of a combatant or tradesman.

• One who crates most spongewood weapons does not equal the best crafter
• One who kills his alts the most in the safety of some pocket of the world is not the best combatant

Basically if your notoriety doesn't organically spread throughout the players, are you really notorious?

These type of stats suit ranked balanced match-style competitive games like shooters, moba, battle royale, rts etc. I could see tindrem arena and other rule-based and governed micro 'modes' having some kind of ladder and stats which get kept by empire scribes as these are self contained, balanced, rules based engagements which players are free to lookup in game and other things of this nature.

On the flip side if someone cheesed their way up the rankings and was found to be completely shit at that thing in game, that forges a reputation in its own way.

K/D It’s completely useless stat because you can just sit there and kill your naked guild mates or alt accounts all day to farm it.
I really don’t see a legit way to make it work. Pve stats were cool in mo1.

maybe being able to see the top 3 people that have killed you could be interesting. Build up some rivalries between players...

How about "Fell off a mountain to their death" stat? Then I can be number 1 in something right out the gate, that'd be lit.

 

[HappyHour]

Wow, zero votes for showing k/d. Im a little bit surprised.

Edit: I chose only kills

 

[Speznat]

I would really like to see the pve stats on the website, even for everyone, that everyone can lookup, all pve stats of people. would be awesome xD

but please no pvp stats. or people will be alt + tab maniacs again. xD

at least no one would try to pad this achievement.

If we can Id like us to take a pass here.

Let reputation go by word of mouth and action. You can also speak through titles, etc.

Same with public guild lists, we dont need them.

 

[Dominatrixx]

Why would we need to see K/D? It's not Overwatch.

You know them ego kids NEEEDS it badly

 

[Kaemik]

K/D doesn't have a place in a game like this. If I take down the biggest baddest guy in the game in his full set of ohgmium with is fully optimized potions that's one kill.

If I go to the graveyard with five of my best friend and gank an ungeared newby, that's one kill.

There is such a wide disparity in the value of kills in an MMO that K/D doesn't matter at all.
