    Re: Am I the worst player with 600+ hours of playtime?

    Like Slidero said, your SPM is a bit low for that amount of time played- but don't worry, you're not alone. There are many players who have played a lot and still don't have too great SPM, some even lower than yours. Personally though, I think the benchmark for 600+ hrs is about 200 SPM; any lower than that and you aren't worth your points IMO. There is no such thing as a 'team-player' in retrospect to a 'combat-player'. As long as you are killing more than you are dying, you are helping your team. The more tickets you save for your team or take from the other team, whether this be directly or indirectly through capping or defending vital flags- the better team player you are. So to answer your question... no you definitely aren't.

    edit: And for reference...

    856 Hrs played
    3.96 SPM
    2.36 KDR
    Less than 15% time in vehicles (last time I checked)

      If you have to question your "BF2 Skills" on an internet forum you probably suck.

          i have 600+ hours, i like flying the chopper and your spm is higher than mine. of course, i have several accounts cuz i am not that concerned w/ rank, badges, and so forth. i probably have more than 700 hours. but like others have said its all about having fun. the stats arent always correct either. i play on a lot of unranked servers also w/ mods and such. so really the statistics are only ballpark for some people.

            SPM depends very largely on your style of play and the maps you play often. It means nothing that your SPM is not high. Some maps just give less points per round or all the points go to certain players/playstyles like armor on karkand or pilots on Oman.

            Forward progress is good progress in my book.

                  What the hell is SPM?
                  -Squirrel Pancake Makers?
                  -Slightly Paranoid Mothers?
                  -Singed Partridge Marmalade?
                  -Some Petty Moniker?
                  -Slutty Pregnant MILF's?
                  -Somewhat Perverse Mechanics?

                  I have no idea.

                  Love,
                  No one loves you. Die.

                    average score per minutes (played).

                    so if you played 1 hour and made 60 points you have an average of 1 score per minute or 1 spm.

                      I have the same issue as you bro. I LOVE my AT kit. Why? Cause nothing sucks more than getting owned over and over by a tank or an APC. I took a huge hit in stats when I went AT because as we all know the point whores love to let you get in 2-3 shots then steal the kill, which is irritating but a lot better than that tank hanging around imho. I do a goo bit of flag captures and defends but I was only in a heilocopter once and it was to jump out into a base, and I take tanks from time to time but it's more for the transportation than anything. I tried sniper for a few hours and my K ratio was about 5:1 once I got the hang of it but I could clear a base but then there was no one to cap the flag. It was frustrating me no end to see clear bases and no one capping. I say if you're enjoying playing then you're helping your team.

                        I just did a comparison of our stats. You definitely favor the lone wolf approach, as an eng or medic - and mainly on karkand. I spend a lot of my time in the air if I can - you spend yours in a tank - go figure ...karkand again.

                        You have me beat in overall kills - but our ratios are the same. I have you slaughtered in team pts though. That just comes down to play styles. By your stats you seem more like you want to be right in the thick of things with kills/deaths. I prefer to do more squad/team work and go for the win (obvious by win/loss ratio) - 3.11 ratio vs a 1.13 - also beating you out in number of 1st, 2nd, 3rd place medals.

                        Our SPM, K/D, and Accuracy are about the same.

                        The major differences I see - which do not mean that much towards "skill" is awards. I have every award that I can based on my time in the game and in kits. I have all the ribbons (including war college), and I am working on evening out all my other times in order to get amor, helo, and jet medals.

                        You have me by 85 hours and 8k overall pts. (major difference in pts due to # of kills vs team pts).

                        I am not saying I am the best by any means - but I consider myself to be a good - well rounded player with skills on the ground, in the air, and in the armor.

                        It all comes down to play style, and what you consider to be the most important part of your game.

                        Mine - I enjoy the hell out of trying to get all my badges - so that is what I am working on. I try to stick with the kit I need to in order to advance time on it - but when the situation arises I will switch for the better of the team. Always in the back of my mind though, I have some goal in mind - whether it is time in a kit, # of kills needed, getting more team pts, etc. - whatever is in line for one of the badges/awards I have left to get.

                          This is completely unrelated but wouldn't most people be considered a whore? Most people have a favorite weapon they always play with and know they can score points with. So would that not make them a "whore".

                            I thought I was with all the times I've been killed while spawing. As you can see I've been killed more than I've killed, I plan to change that very slowly.

                              I respectfully disagree. One can kill more enemy than the number of times he dies; however, unless that player is helping to capture or defend bases in the process of those kills, they really don't mean much. Certainly they're not meaningless; as you say, they do decrease the enemies ticket count. However, especially on maps where one or both teams have no uncappable bases, a team can have a 100 ticket advantage and still lose the round if the other team caps all of the bases. Squad mates can't spawn on their squad leaders unless the team has at least one base.

                                I think I must be one of the crappyest players here...

                                I dont play to often, I dont think I really suck, but I do think I die more then I kill.
