The truth about "unskilled players"

You have already seen the top of the leader board player yourself. A few purple planes and went ham on AI in a plane he was green in IIRC

You mean the one that’s entirely irrelevant?

Where is he on other metrics?

And wasn’t he God tier monthly overall on SS?

Yeah.

Because he killed players
not just AI


omg look
look at his monthly AI air kills

Geee, it’s almost like he was killing players and AI does nothing but farm SL which is why he’s at the top of a completely irrelevant chart

Plane rating is relative to other players who played that specific plane. Planes played by lots of bad playes will result in a comparatively higher rating because the ceiling is lower.

Tis’ the reason why I have a purple F-84G despite it pretty much in line with all of my other 3kd planes.

Yes its the overall. But the rating is still fudged with AI. The other guy with AI kills/ high score and few player kills is still rated good

You will never notice it

Which other guy?


You mean this one?

Gee, it’s almost like AI kills don’t help you

He’d still be below 0.4KS if you factor in that 14% air AI kills manually btw. It does seem that the ai kills helped him on the score/team pos but it doesn’t matter when SR1 took account of his KS and WR.

such a good player man
This is why we don’t focus on ONE statistic alone

MMMMM

And he’s still barely “good player” overall despite that score mismatch. Almost like score alone isn’t everything…hmm

It’s almost like there’s a reason why good players focus only on WR, KPS and average score

This guy is also likely to be farming score in NE given the high mismatch in score and deaths per game played. The whole NE counting towards stats isn’t patched yet after all.

Should be next month hopefully?
IF that even happens

Next major at the soonest, but might be even longer given the time it took them to “fix” things so far.

Ignorance or total lack of knowledge is a terminal outside of the forum regulars (common here too really)

That doesnt mean we should tell someone to bog off if they actually want help

As long as they don’t sit on their throne of garbage spouting nonsense I’m happy teaching people

agreed. All it takes is good faith communication from both parties and the world is a better place
