Dominion kills K/D

On a lighter note/ topic, Dominion kills your K/D ratio. I’ve been almost exclusively playing Dominion, to unlock the Commando armor. I have, probably 75+ more victories to go before I can unlock it, meanwhile, if anyone has any tips on how to be offensive and not die a F**** load of times, enlighten me because, I believe I now officially have 4500 deaths and 3800 kills, thanks to Dominion and nobody going after objectives on my teams. I can clean that right back up by going back to Slayer/ Team Slayer, but apparently, I won’t get cool sh** unlocked that way.

there is no fix…now if we had ranks k/d wouldn’t be the most important stat to people so it wouldn’t matter… and you wouldn’t be the only one going for objectives

Really? I always seem to do better on Dominion. Just don’t rush in. Be smart about things, don’t charge a capture point unless you have team mates with you etc.

I almost never go for the objective, but I play a lot of it. Give me a ranking system, and that’d be a different story. The only skill gauge we have is K/D. Sad, but true. Rarely will someone consistently go for the objective in Halo 4. There’s absolutely no point.

but it doesn’t affect slayer k/d which is really all that matters, because killing is not the objective in other game modes.

i can’t figure out how that -Yoinking!- game type works. seems incredibly complicated to me. i don’t get it. you capture a terminal get weapons and a shield? + worthless turrets or whatever. i don’t get it. i said that twice.

It’s actually pretty fun if you’re in with a good team. You can end a game within the first minute and have an instant win before you’ve even really killed anyone lol. The objective is just to capture the most points (all 3 points if possible) and hold the objectives as long as possible. Every minute you hold each objective, that objective re-arms you with ordinance and your score goes up +10 points, until you’ve hit 420. The longer you’ve held that objective, the better the item drops you get e.g. rockets etc. It’s like Battlefield 3’s version of capture the flag, but with ordinance drops for every 45 seconds, to minute you’ve held that point.
