question about the stats...

[BIOHZRD03]

anyone know why the stats keep goin down?...

 

[Blasphemy]

[Silent Ghost]

Its realy annoying, and it feels like every time it goes down i play better

You are correct, it is purely psychological. Free from the pressures of maintaining or augmenting points, your mind is able to focus on the key aspects of gameplay, including processing information quicker and making sharper decisions. With your focus divided between statistics and gameplay, it is not as if you play well and stats are down, you play better because stats are down.

hlx_display 0 and you will flourish

Ronpaul beat me to it, hlx_display 0 is your friend. I've been leaving them on lately just for the heck of it to see what happens, but I don't care that much. I have times when I'm awful just as much with stats on as off, and the same is true of those rampages where you seemingly can do no wrong.

 

[BIOHZRD03]

so is the "hlx_display 0" something that you do to keep the stats from showing up?...and if you do that does it keep you from earning points?...cause every time the stats are down i end up 2:1 or better and (today for example) had like 55 objectives...

 

[jeod66]

It does exactly what the command says: doesn't display them. You'll still earn the points, provided that the stats are running and there are enough people in the server, but you just won't see them. Just type it in the console after you join the game, and you're good.

My only problem once I hid stats was checking rank. Thankfully, I've come to terms with points after I took a week break from the game. Now, unless EVERYBODY is taking 10+ pts I'm cool, but then I just leave before I start getting angry at people.

Also, I'd suggest picking one server you want to be your "performance" server. I chose the 6th ranger, so I hold myself to higher point standards there, and then ego flash, so if I'm having a bad day I'll go to Kalt, strand, ava, etc.

Stats

[featherfoot07]

Yeah, once they reset the stats and i lost my days of game play - i stopped caring about stats. its nice to see them now and again, but i'm not a stats junky....

bind a key for rank:

bind k say hlx_display 1; say rank; say hlx_display 0

. The only catch is that as long as you're not displaying stats your rank won't be shown on the stats website, but who cares right?

EDIT: Actually don't, you'll flood the server lol, but that's the method I guess

Speaking of stats whats up with the weapon stats? I swore I saw my name among the top 5for the 30 cal and the Panzerschreck but now I dont even show up in the top 50. Are weapon stats reset every once and a while or something?

 

[CP3Nation-Cowboys]

My stats arent going down when I do good my are going way up.

it's a rolling 30-day stat system, so you were probably top 50 in kills for the last 30 days, but with each new day you replace the first day of that 30 days with the current day, so if you get zero kills today but had 500 on your first of the last 30 days then you have 500 kills less in the standings, hence the huge drop in standings.

ugh, does that make sense? they're not persistent, it's based on the last 30 days

 

[Trace.45]

I give away points like M&M's.

haha...yeah..made sense to me...lil drawn out..but other than that it was a good explanation...

 

[^Illuminati^]

Why not eliminate the stats then? They are extremely unfair and demoralizing. When you play at 2:1 kill:death ratio and you still lose hundreds of points it takes all the fun out the game. It is truely impossible to play at 12:1 ratio, which is what you need when playing on a map with new players. Note I did not say nubes. Some players even stratagise to avoid specific maps at certain times or even play on second accounts. Stats have had a very negative impact on the game. At LEAST make them fair if nothng else.

just turn them off for your comp hlx_display 0 just gotta put it into your config file

You still own points and are in the HLStats system, but you just don't see it.

If only stats could be adjusted to reward unselfish gameplay, like getting mg'd b/c you were the only one brave enough to run out and throw a nade at the mg, or covering a teammate so he can capture the flag, etc.
