Supporters ImTriggerHappy Posted June 30, 2015 Supporters Posted June 30, 2015 Couldn't care less. The only game I have ever counted how many players I get is the first infected style game at the mall. Hits I take I have never counted because to be honest its more fun to throw yourself in than hide in a corner worrying about getting shot. Josh95, Sacarathe and skarra333 3
Happy Posted June 30, 2015 Posted June 30, 2015 I only track them if I'm on a roll (which is rare). Highest I reached was 9 at The Gaol (six of which were knife kills, the other three shotgun kills). I somehow on my own managed to flank a good portion of the other team who must have mistook me for being on their side. But usually I don't keep it in mind - too busy having fun shooting and being shot back. RILiON 1
Supporters Sitting Duck Posted June 30, 2015 Supporters Posted June 30, 2015 I'm a pratt who sucks at airsoft therefore I am often one that will throw myself up or attract their attention whilst my team assault (well that is my pathetic excuse) Kill - Death bollox ??? Only Kill I worry about is if my team decide I must be on the enemy side Only Death I worry about is if my gun will last the day As long as I don't mess up and cost my team the game - so what if peeps take the general skirmish sites too seriously then they should put down the toy gun and get out more If people are really worried about K-D running around with toy guns..... There is no MOAB in airsoft - well unless PT247 is on your team
MxHaze Posted June 30, 2015 Posted June 30, 2015 Been playing a year now, and this is the first time ever heard the term kd in airsoft context. Thats proper cod
RILiON Posted June 30, 2015 Author Posted June 30, 2015 Been playing a year now, and this is the first time ever heard the term kd in airsoft context. Thats proper cod I'd never heard It mentioned in airsoft either till last week then I read it yesterday on the forum someone mentioned the kd they achieved with a new loadout. I wasn't sure if I was missing something. Glad I'm not.

To be honest I do try to keep track when on a roll as well but its difficult when its quite often in the dark and happens pretty fast, so its usually a bit of a guesstimate. 9 is ok wont say what mine is as I dont want to be cruel ?
Josh95 Posted June 30, 2015 Posted June 30, 2015 I get more of a buzz out of completing the objective, rather then scoring "kills" Hudson 1

shortman Posted June 30, 2015 Posted June 30, 2015 Im still new enough to it all just be buzzing with adrenaline about the fact im in a firefight. I dont care who dies me or them lol. Sacarathe and RILiON 2

Sacarathe Posted June 30, 2015 Posted June 30, 2015 A lot of hostility to the term "kills" Unless you're 14. Or sound like you are. youtu.be/BZKvVgLZQks?t=2m29s - No offence to the guy in this vid, but sadly it stuck in my head Here have some bleach: youtube.com/watch?v=3b7BpxZhk-0 I'm not saying there is anything wrong it with, just doesnt feel right either.
Supporters ImTriggerHappy Posted June 30, 2015 Supporters Posted June 30, 2015 A lot of hostility to the term "kills"Yep bloody P.C brigade, soon have a rule where you have to give someone a cuddle and band aid when you shoot them.I say kill all the time there is nothing wrong with it, it just a term. shortman and Josh95 2
RILiON Posted June 30, 2015 Author Posted June 30, 2015 Well considering we are playing soldiers with toy guns and yell dead man walking once were out so we don't get shot up once were out. would suggest hitting a player is a "kill". Or it could be a hit. Got. Down. What ever you call it I just wanted to know how many people count it and compare it to deaths. The term used wasn't the point. I don't think age determines it either.
shortman Posted June 30, 2015 Posted June 30, 2015 Could start saying you have "ended" someone instead? But i think thats probably worse lol. RILiON 1

OP there is nothing wrong with your choice of terms, thread derailed a little, but nothing wrong with the choice of words. As for age, I was just getting at how it sounds, not what it might mean.

Yeah I don't think it really matters what time people use and it is funny considering we are for the most part simulating what soldiers do, regardless of how accurate or realistic it is. Maybe we should say "hit player and said player acknowledged the fact that they were hit" as hitting someone doesn't necessarily mean they won't cheat or not notice they were hit and continue playing.

bornleverpuller Posted July 1, 2015 Posted July 1, 2015 The only deaths that bother me are friendly fire, if I'm running in the same direction as you I'm on your team dickhead.
deebo Posted July 1, 2015 Posted July 1, 2015 Im just as new to it as shorty, so generally just mega excited to be running around in firefights haha RILiON 1
n1ckh Posted July 1, 2015 Posted July 1, 2015 The only deaths that bother me are friendly fire, if I'm running in the same direction as you I'm on your team d*ckhead. Ffs, the amount of times I've been killed by friendly fire which is why me & team mates try to steer clear & do our own thing
