Really hyped about Halo 4 after looking at some of the new details released after the embargo. One of the things I’m really excited for is the opportunity to have a ‘clean slate’, starting again fresh with a new multiplayer character.
I’m not a bad player, but I feel I have vastly improved over the past few months by adopting some strategy (camo stalker!) rather than just running blindly towards any red dots on my radar. My Reach profile is kind of permanently sullied though with hundreds of old half-attempted or really shockingly poor games from the last few years. My K/D for reach is sitting at around 1.14 or something pretty low right now, hoping to average over 2 for Halo 4 as a personal target. Has anybody else considered a K/D target for their new characters?
Please don’t give abuse for people considering their K/D ratio, I know people go overboard with these stats and it gets a bad rep on these forums but I feel it’s a nice indication of how much you contribute to your team.
Something around 2, my Reach K/D is suffering because I don’t play often and for the longest time my little cousin was borrowing my Xbox (that’s never happening again).
Depends on the ranked/social split. In Halo 2s ranked, I was 1.2 in level 30ish Team Slayer, so let’s say over 1.2 at a good rank in a ranked playlist. In social playlists, over 2 minimum.
I’ll probably end up with a 2.0+ easily. Have it in Halo 3 on every account I ever made, have it on Reach with every account I ever made, and will do the same in Halo 4.
No griffball stat padding, almost no vehicles used, and I play mostly slayer. That’s how I roll =)
Past John was inattentive, complacent, fun loving, and had bad aim. Although most of those traits still remain, I’ve learned to focus and play to win, and I’ve gained a measure of competence in combat, but the golf between my kills and deaths would take quite a while to fill.
I’m hoping to have a positive K/D in general. .83 or whatever I’m sitting at now is a fair average, considering the whole of my career, but I’m getting better, and I hope the reflection of that will be positive in my new career.
But in general I’ll probably forget and not care. The game is about escapism anyway, and I really don’t give a single cack about numbers.
im more interested in my k/d spread, and i rarely get above +5 so im looking to lower my deaths which in turn will probably get me more kills, any tips on doing this?

Aim for the head That will shorten the killtime drastically
any tips on keeping alive, that seems to be my problem right now, and with the noobs getting wise with jet pack and camo and using them as the weapons of mass destruction they are, im finding my slayer games a hard time right now.
> 1.01 upwards, why? because i kill more then i die that way.
Lol, I’ve faced you and fought by your side. You’re way better than that.
Me on the other hand…pfhht, i’m terrible. I am a pretty good pilot though!
I’m on of those people who don’t really think K/Ds matter a whole lot. So what if it’s lower than one, it dosn’t matter as long as your heart’s in it and you enjoy doing whatever it is you’re doing. Besides, it’s not like it shows how good you are (at least, not always).
With good game balance which relies upon skill and precision (unlike Reach) close to nobody will get a k/d above 2.0. My target will be 2.5 if the game turns out like Reach as that was what I was working towards before my live ran out and I have to start a new account (country change); and 1.5 if it is more like Halo3.

My multiplayer K/D is terrible. 0.7 or something like that. Problem is I just can’t seem to get the kills. Sure I prefer being back-up rather than the leading guy, but still I need to improve. Any advise for a noob like me?

Please no,please no,NO K/D RATIIO
This is like in COD,when some douchbag see you K/D Ratio,he calls you a noob and stuff
I hate it in reach,why?
I play grifball,invasion,big team battle,team sniper,mlg,tam swat,etc…
And my K/D Ratio isnt bad,i have a few more kills than deaths,but then you look at people who has 334305427589262596549 more kills than death and when you ask he,he says:Because i just play team slayer,or is because im PRO and you are a NOOB,FUCKK OFF
Seriously,i hate it in reach,and there was only the kills and the deaths,not a K/D,Imagine in Halo 4 there will be K/D Ratio
That will shorten the killtime drastically
