BF2S Forums Do you care about your stats/awards?

yes, But in a personal achievement way... I like to see how well I'm going and awards are a thing to aim at.

But not a look at my E-penis im better then you kind of way....

Sort of, not to the point of playing 24/7 to make my E-penis huge and my e-gasmo even bigger, but i would be pissed if i got reset, i just try to have fun and have good stats, works sometimes

No, I hardly play on ranked server now anyway.

The only reason I think most people continue to keep playing is to rank up, or improve their stats!

The reason why BF2 is so awesome is that it keeps a tally of your points, rewards, hours played etc.

Its the reason I still play. . . .I want to rank up, and rack up points!

I play from time to time to get some more hours for a couple of awards but I play PR the most.

I care.

I care so much that when I go to sleep, I dream about them.  I think about them while I'm eating.  I can never get them off my mind, their my homepage.

No, I don't give a shit about them.

I play for fun and for stats.

Fun, well because the game is and I wouldnt play it otherwise. Stats are nice to set yourself goals, achievements and all the rest of it. And, to check for new victims
Even with 900+ hours Im still checking my stats page whenever I shut down BF2. They are an integral part of the game and without them, sites such as this one wouldn't exist.

I play for fun but I voted for "only awards" it sorta gives me a goal and keeps me playin longer even though I'd still play for fun.

Cared a bit months ago, to have some goals in Stats (K/D etc) now as you've put it :

"I don't give a rats, I just play."

since I don't play it a lot anymore, maybe once every 2 weeks.

I dont wry about awards that much. The most thing i want is ranks.... *dreaming*. I only have 1 rank left for all unlocks, both vanilla and sf, and i just cant wait. Awards come by themselves usually, but the satisfaction u get when u rise a rank and get another 2 unlocks is gr8.
Peace

BF2, Special Forces, Euro Force, and Armoured Fury.... $100

Nvidia 7800gt/oc... Free

Stats and Awards... Priceless

That's the catch.

Statistics are not particularly important, but you find yourself trembling at the thought of receiving a Purple Heart, or perhaps a negative kill/death ratio. And the all important rank! You might say, "I'll play just a little bit more, just so I can get promoted!" That little bit becomes hours and hours over a few days. Yet, your stats may suffer. You are tempted to play more to fix them. That little voice in your head says, "Go ahead. Play Infantry Only on Karkand. Use grenades. Your KDR will be high."

It's what keeps many of us playing. Statistics are all important, and EA knows it. We can have a disappointing time playing the game, but if it keeps our stats looking polished, it may just keep us here.

I used to have much better stats. I used to be the king of Wake Island, a player who thrived by being a superb infantryman in a world of jets and tanks. Yet, I suppose I drifted off somewhere. Maybe too much Kubra. Maybe when they changed the grenade launcher (I was a crack shot). My stats are in ruin now. Sometimes I will spend hours staring at them, almost willing them to be better. Alas, it is not to be. I have accepted that I will never be a great player that everyone looks at and admires.

Instead, I just have fun. I may die thirty times in a round (That may be annoying), but if I'm having fun, then it's worth it.
