BF2S Forums Recovering from early mistakes

i had nothing to recover from. i've been l33t from the start

yes

I'm recovering from my early stats. Not only did I suck back in the early days of BF2, but my computer I had back then was very slow, and killing was extremely hard. I didn't do so well until after I built a new system and had time to play, but by that time I had nearly even scores around 11,600 kills and 10,200 deaths. My SPM was around 2.0.
I think I sucked the first 3-4 months, but my stats were bad and my FPS was so low that it was hard to do much good.
I do very well now, after experimenting with a wide range of weapons, I went back to the M16A2. Everyone complains that the G36E is the best weapon, but honestly, M16>AK101>G36E.
In the old days, I couldn't kill many people with any weapon. These days (before my leave) I can stomp a mud hole in most people's asses, with the exception of ultra uber geek nerd have-no-life players, and dolphin diving noobs with the illusion they're good.

yeha i had been trying to get my KDr above one...now its like 1.0117

yep. watched my KDR go from 0.4 to 0.8 now, my accuracy from 19 to 21 percent and my spm from about 0.7 to 1.3 ish.

well im only a staff sergeant (6677pts) and enrolled 2006-10-06
so ive only been playing for almost 2 months now so i dont know nothing yet....

K/D Ratio 0.5505
SPM 1.1601
Accuracy 15.87%

my accuracy is improving.
but the K/D ratio hardly goes up

i always join a squad and stay with them now...
before i joined a squad and sat on a rooftop looking thru scope all game and didnt get much kills/score/cap's etc...

the key for new players  for improving themselves and being a better player is to log in to this site and start reading whats on here...
start out with ROE!!!!

remember... these words is coming from a nOOb...
I HAVE SEEN THE LIGHT! ITS SHINING AT BF2s!

At one point in your BF2 career. Well at least for me you will start owning everything that moves. You will start getting one of the 3 top medals each round mostly the gold. Then you know your out of your noob days as a player. There still might be some noob days in planes or choppers if you havent used them much but for the most part you will cease to be a noob.

My K/D started at about 0.91, and has gotten up to 1.7 something.  My SPM was like, 1.4 and has gone up to 2.5 or so.

I'm just starting to get back towards the top of the hill, I got owned by everything & everyone for a good solid month SPM was .6864 & KDR was .3990 but now SPM is about 1.5 & KDR is approx 0.9 so I'm on my way but not quite there yet.
My accuracy is & probably always will be horrid though because I've figured out how to get more kills/damage but by doing so I waste a lot of bullets. Also learning that the pistol is one of the most accurate weapons in the game has helped me get some points.
The best thing you can possibly do for your score (and for fun too) is learn how to track with a rifle/pistol. It seems like it would be more complicated than it is but if you figure that people can only run & walk at a certain speed all you really have to do is get used to the angles their moving at. Tracking has to be the most helpful thing I have learned in BF2.

Well, my KDR, SPM and WLR graphs pretty much show that Ive been constantly improving.

My KDR started out at around 0.6-0.8 (not too bad for a beginner) and has been consistently rising, and I broke the big 2 KDR the other week.

Accuracy has been pretty constant, certainly improved and then levelled out where its been staying at for a good while now. Fluctuations of the odd 0.05....blah, so what. I often shoot their air with any weapon I can get a hold of in a vehicle

I do still have to recover from shitty Infantry weapon KD's since they are really low compared to what I am achieving now, mostly anything from 2/1 to 3/1 ratios, occasionlly higher.
They are totally fucked up from my "noob" karkand days from when I first started the game. Im ashamed of that really. Not being crap but having spent so much time on that shitty map
Assault Rifle KDR is improving, it was 1.4 a few months back and the AT/AA is also going up. Pistol KDR I have just broke even and that is also going up.

Vehicle KD's are fine for what I do. I dont spawnrape city maps with Armour but I do blow the hell out of enemy tanks and ground forces on the "proper maps" (FuShe, Smoke Screen, DV, Daqing, etc) and a 5KDR reflects that. I learnt how to play Armour on Smoke Screen (60hours worth) and its really paid off for me on the other maps.
AA KDR is mostly from downing choppers and jets....and the odd Ghost Town whoreage The Essex gun on Gator has in the past month raised it from a 5 to a 6 ratio which Im pleased with
Chopper KDR is rapidly rising too with my new found love for the skies, but only the SF choppers. Im not a fan of the vanilla choppers for some reason So just about all of my chopper time and kills have come from SF. I cant handle jets to save my life so that one will permanently be low and im not fussed about that either....let the bastards TK each other for them.

Hey don't bash him, at least post something constructive and in-line with the topic.
Besides, maybe from when he started, how he plays now is leet in his opinion. I think any improvement is a good thing.

lol cheers for all your comments, my overall stats are only really increasing through playing sniper tho, which im not bad at, not as good as todd_angelo tho i dont think

proud of my anti tank kd tho, that took a lot of time on warlord, overusing the sraw for everything, infantry and vehicles
