cut the scientific bull. KDR = Kill Death Ratio. If it's 1.0 that means you killed 1 player for each time you get killed (not with a car) OP means that there are suicides involved making this slightly above average.

  • Comparing your individual 1.0 to (total number of all player kills) divided by (total number of all player deaths) says that your deaths are average as compared to all deaths. It is not a measurement of player performance and can not be used to determine whether any individual player is average (or above or below average). It is a metric of deaths, not players. I'm sorry if you can't understand that but I can't think of a better way to explain it.

  • If I kill more than I get killed, I'm usually happy playing a FPS. That's my math.

  • I am not arguing for or against KD as a measure of player skill, just the OP's terrible understanding of averages.
