The only time you really have the time to see stats anyway is while you're dead. Why not have the enemy who killed you, have their stats show up with a little avatar picture of them once they kill you.:p

I think this is a great idea. Although seeing that I was killed by a total n00b might sting the ego a bit. I just don't want one of the stats to be "# of Generators destroyed by player" ;)

and if the same name kept appearing, you could start drafting some hate mail ;)

That's surprisingly reasonable and useful. Other than stats, my e-peen always wonders how much health (or shields, in this case) my enemy had left when he killed me. I always wanted to know how close I was to killing him first. :)

I kinda like this... Other than the fact that i dislike anything that gives people a reason to ignore team objectives and just killwhore.

Still, it would be nice to know some info on your murder. Especially if you suspect them of aimbotting or rof hacking.

Some guy kills you in 0.3 seconds and then has a 100:4 K/D ratio... /REPORT

Please don't implement this if people think like this. I don't want to get reported everyday for being a pro

Don't know if serious, but I personally like being called a cheater. Granted, APB: Reloaded is infested with them, but I loved how my sneaky shotgun madskillz were often... Misunderstood. ;)

It could be considered a compliment I guess, but in my eyes it's an insult. I don't like being accused of cheating because my well thought out strategy beat your spray-n-pray tactics.

I hate it when I blast some 3rd rate mouse jockey to kibble and they accuse me of cheating. It's like they can't imagine that someone would be better than them fairly... that the only way to be that much better than they are is to cheat.

I like the idea....but I don't.

When I play there is alot of communication going on. If there's someone on a killstreak or low health in an area and he gets me I'm going to tell everyone and we know wether or not to send 1-4 people.

But if it works like "Hey this guy is this rank, killed this many of your faction" etc then that's cool. But I don't want my K/D shown because then I get little kids hatetelling me about it when I have it low and then I have to explain to them how little K/D means in this game but that mine is usually really awesome anyways.

You could just have a thing of how many this player has killed you and how many times you killed this player.

That way when your dead you can see you've killed him 0 times and remember next time to pop his head. Or be like, "Dam, I killed this dude over 100 times, 'bout time he finnaly got me.

Dont like it at all, for obvious reasons: just caring to show of your K/D to the guys you kill instead of doing something useful.
Thats why im also against any kind of K/D showing ingame.

In any way, wont have time to look at that stuff anyway, need to issue more missions. :D

It's not like who kills you is a big secret, if someone is pissed they're gonna write you if they just see a name in text or a whole profile with stats/pics.

The info I would like to see is their name, rank, what they used to kill me, how many shots it took, what class and skills they where using. Things that just help me better understand what happened.

Sometimes you have to pay for ground with your own blood. You could either:
1) Point out that while their k/d is 3 times yours, they're the ones that have been pushed back to a tower and are about to lose that too.

or

2) /mute AnnoyingPunk45623

An option to disable cross-empire tells would be nice too... so this sort of thing simply never comes up. I think I'd prefer that to be honest.
