Weapon specific stats...

So Waypoint has your total kills with a weapon, which is cool. But it also has “killed by” which is a pretty useless stat. It doesnt help me to see how many times Ive been killed by a ghost.

What would help, would be to see how many times Ive died while using a weapon, so I can compare that with my kills and see where my strengths lie. Like, I would like to know if I have a better k/d while using the DMR or the Carbine. The AR or the supressor? But NOOOOO. Why is this stat not shown?

-> Full Halo 4 Waypoint Stats
-> War Games: Matchmaking on the left
-> Game Variants on the right
-> Scroll down a little more (Medals is too far)
-> Press ‘View all weapon stats’
-> Profit.

EDIT: Right… you want to know how many times you’ve died holding an AR. I don’t know that that stat would be easy to work out. Seeing as it would have to record what you were using while taking every death. It would also have to filter out all the times you were shot in the back while holding your pistol, for example.

Eh not really, it can just know what weapon i had when I actually died. Similar to how it knows Bob killed me 10 times and I killed Bob 6. IT doesnt care that Fred shot me twice before I died, it still tells me Bob killed me.

It wouldnt be a perfect indicator, but it would help. Especially over a larger sample. If my k/d while firing a DMR is 1.6 but its 1.4 with a carbine, I have a pretty solid idea that I am better with the DMR.

Obviously some stuff would be broken. Like my K/D using a supressor would likely be inflated, because I only pull it out when its time to kill someone with it. But it would still be nice to see.

> But it also has “killed by” which is a pretty useless stat.

Actually, no.
I checked this and it seems I’m getting slaughtered by ‘melee’ which tells me to trade in my Mag for an AR and hose the enemy before he/she gets close enough to punch my clock.
Not useless at all.
