Commander Kills Count!

Re: Commander Kills Count!

Well, it's just a shorthand, so we don't need to describe everything :) .

Shorthand doesn't usually include false pretenses,

You have to remember that the BF2S wiki, like all wikis, is a collection of information submitted by users, that can be changed by anyone with internet access. It is by no means guaranteed 'correct'. In this case, it is not correct.

This is sooo stupid...arty kills going towards k/d ratio....even more reason to disbelieve anyone as quoting thier k/d ratio as proof of thier skill....

Unless you give me a better shorthand, I'll keep using it :p

Just know that commander score is commander score. If anyone wants to know how its calculated, tell them it has to do with how many players are alive when points are gained.

There is no shorthand needed. CMD score is CMD score. No more, no less, =)

Hmm... Actually now I realized that "average score", by strict mathematical definition is totally wrong. But anyways...

And I think this "alive" should be removed. I am not sure, but if this was true, when a team loses all the flags, and there is only 1 player alive, the commander would earn all the points this player earns. Are you sure about this? :hmm:

Re: Commander Kills Count!

its basically what we've been saying.

when I say average points scored / divided by # of players, I was assuming some logic would be used in there. Of course if 10 are alive, then its total points earned / 10 = score for that moment. We all know that the score climbs up all round... we're basically referring to the same thing...

my whole reason for the post was in reference to the author wondering about rifle kills / etc.. while commander. In theory, active commanding takes away from points your team could have earned (so does arty for that matter), so it actually hurts your score.... (can u tell i'm somewhat against active commanding )

Re: Commander Kills Count!

Is this not the smae thing as stat padding? Not ranking up how you are supposed to rank up....ie actually get air defence kills with well...air defence? Some might argue this is just as cheap as a knife or pistol server.

Please elaborate on this. How is being an active fighting commander stat padding? Whether you jump on a TOW or a stingler/IGLA or help cap a flag, that is not padding. I think anyone that would make the arguement that it is is the same person that complains that people are cheating when they are getting killed over and over.

The best support action a commander can provide is revive, & heal

Keep your men alive, & save team tickets

peace:)

Re: Commander Kills Count!

Actually, according to the formla, as stated here. You get the most points when everyone on your team is dead, except the one doing the scoreing. That would explain why my commander always drops arty on my head. (can you tell Im not serious here, any who) It would also explain why I seem to get shot by my team mates, in the back mostly, while trying to cap a flag.
I also seem to have a strange in game bug, when the enemy commander does a scan I dont show up as a little red dot, its a little red bulls eye. This thread just seemed to be getting to serious so I thought I would try and get it compleatly off track.
So you guys say I can score some points as commander, really? . . . . . . . .Red

Re: Commander Kills Count!

No, sometimes I do "active commanding" because otherwise my team loses and this is not good for me.
