I am terrible at DoD 1.2

Is it just me or are player kills to deaths not as high anymore? Looking around on scoreboards, I'm not seeing really terrible scores or really good scores, everyone's kind of doing the same.

Or could this just be that lots of good players are playing more often and filling the servers since they wanna test 1.2 out?

I dunno, but I'm under 2.00 for yesterday and today. This hasn't happened to me for months.

Makes sense to me. It will take a few weeks for everyone to get used to it and the stats will go back up.

I'm more terrible <3

I think the reason K

is down now is because everything registers more and guns are more balanced.

I did manage to get keep a 3:1 score on avalanche tonight for about 20 minutes, but eventually I lost it and finished at 2:1.

BTW sorry at whoever I outbursted at in that Donner game. Sometimes I go into really bad slumps and gets frustrated. I guess I'm doing better now than I was in 1.1 so when i don't do well it hurts more or something.

The first half of Donner was great, but the second just sucked. Getting pinned down like that is such a pain in the ass. I don't like it when I can't get out of the Allied half of the map. :\ Donner's always been one of my worst maps, but the swankified Garand helps. But I was hitting NOTHING with my grenades - ever. Oh, actually Axis is much easier for me at least. The friggin' Suze building is exploited a lot by Axis while the Allies don't really have anything similar.

I think you're right Mr. Dig, but I'm wondering how I managed to cheat death so often before despite the fact that some weapons weren't as good as they are now. And god do I ever make a lot of 74 damage MP44 wounds without killing anyone, jeez.

I dunno, the garand can be pretty weird now. In the avalanche game I was raping ass with it. Every shot was 120, I was moving around and killing stuff everywhere. I even got rizzo (who was there) in midair, but then later he went kar and abused me

I think the console command he gave me really helped. I was fiddling with my interp all night.

When I said the hitboxes suck on donner, it was weird. I shot this kar guy square in the chest, no arms up or anything and got 90 dmg. Of course he killed me a second later. Stuff like that doesn't happen as often anymore but it's still there to some extent. The two spots where the arm blocking happens most are when you try and hit snipers (who shoulder their rifle right over the chest and head) and when someone crouches and fires. All and all the garand is way better now. The 3 or 4 kills in 2 seconds that I can get now never happened in 1.1.

kills per death

Yes, I'm aware of that. I'm asking what it is you're trying to say in that post.

Okay, nevermind. I get it now, I didn't understand why you were talking about your own K : D on other servers and commenting on why someone's K : D is lower on larger ones. That's... really not what the thread is aboot.

no on this server its 1.99 what im saying is on a 32 person DoD server if you are a team player and go for flags your score will suck. If u camp it will be a good score. More people playing harder it gets.

I haven't noticed any significant change in my level of play since 1.2 came out.

Oh wait. That's b/c I'm stuck at home and can't play.

It seemed to me that the BAR is not registering as much as it used to for me. Another guy was complaining about it too, even though he was doing better than anyone. Maybe I'm just a little rusty, but it a lot of time I thought i put 3 shots into a guy and he kills me with one and i do 67 damage to him. It could be that my ping was 150 yesterday, but I thought I was getting screwed a lot.
