Today I was in a party of players who all have high W/L. Not just high W/L as in W/L but like 10+. I was pretty amazed. So i was playing with them for a few days and yes they seem to be beating lobby after lobby but as they were talking I listened and they were talking about dash boarding. They all said they didn't dashboard but eventually gave in and said they only dashboard when they're losing which is the point of dash boarding.....I just felt disappointed and realized all thier stats were a lie. Since the start of Black Ops i've never met more than one person that doesn't dashboard/rage quit. People who I thought would stay till the end either leave or dashboard and I find this really quite sad. The worst thing is these player with high stats all pretend to be amazing, usually they have a brand new account to boost their stats.

This was a sort of rant thread but really all I'm, saying is, Are they any real players out there who don't leave at the slightest hint of a fight, who don't dashboard if they are about to lose because at the moment it seems as if I'm the only person on play station who doesn't leave or care about their k/d and stick to the end but still maintain a high set of stats,

I've also recently learnt to never just take a persons skill based off their stats, i need to play with someone through thick and thin and then decide whether they are good. So far over the career of Black Ops i have found some of the best players and i've played with them and have seen them in the worst situation and seen them in the best an d thus i can't wait for MW3.

sure dashboarding is just stupid if you take a loss ur "win" streak should end, but whats wrong with leaving games? when u back out of a game, u get a loss, the win streak is ended and k/d is affected. also how is getting a new account stat boosting. if anything a new account shows current understanding of the game.


Leaving Games is different from Dashboarding. Both are bad but dash boarding is worse.


how is me leaving a game because some asshole on the other team is noob tubing or whoring out ghost bad?


Can I tell you one thing? Im not trying to start war or something, but if you cant deal with things what are in the game, it is your bad. You need to stop raging about things what are in the game, they will still be there though you rage, because you just screw up your enjoyment of the game by doing that.

For Topic: Whats your point of keeping your stats by cheat? Nearly same thing as you would use wall hack and be happy about your 20kd you got with it...

my point was that a player leaving a game(not dashboarding) doesn't affect anyone but the player himself.....apart from failed host migrations, the game goes on. how is that bad...
so what point are you trying to make when you say i mess up my own enjoyment.. i never complained all i said was that if im not enjoying a lobby i back out and go to a new one(which affects no one but me and isnt cheating)its got nothing to do with raging.
Done with hupt
bye

I've never dashboarded before . I only rage quit sometimes - when for example i have a 2bar connection i do rage quit . I don't enjoy a game where i shoot my enemies and get no hitmarkers and yes , i do think that is normal and i won't change my mind .
On-topic : I've seen some players with 7-9 W/Lr and i was like "WTF ?!". I never thought that they were dashboarding though

Completely agree with this statement....that is all
Retired Call of Duty player.

First year university student. I am currently studying music. I love to play my clarinet, but I also enjoy playing saxophones. Im 19 and am one of the most laid back people you\\\'ll ever meet. The only game I play as of right now is NBA 2K13 and due to the overwhelming amounts of homework I get, I do not get a chance to play that often although I really love the game.

If you want to meet up online and play a game of 2K13 just add my psn and put 2K inside the friend request.

Yesssir. Call of Duty players are usually stats driven. They want a higher kdr and/or wlr. Silly silly. It doesn't bother me that much if people from either team dashboard, UNLESS it's the host. That's some irritating shit right there.

I admit, I have dashboarded before, back in MW2 days when I really started to hit a stride in playing CoD a lot. Moreso if I joined a hacked lobby, But I grew up, and hey, I understand stats do not mean shit. Even if I'm having a bad game, going negative, which rarely happens, it hardly changes the stats this late in the game. It takes me over a week to change my kdr now by 0.01. There's a new cod game around the corner, so basically these stats are next to garbage soon enough.

People dashboard to protect their win streak and or kdr. What's so impressive about a win streak that's tainted with dashboarding? That's basically cheating the system. Steroids at the olympics. It's silly really. You do not win a cod trophy at the end of it.

In the end, who remembers their stats from previous call of duty games? Do you and your friends talk about how great your stats were on COD4? Haha.

I wonder if they can implement a system to show how many times a person has disconnected from a game. There have been many games in the past that implement a Win-Loss-Disconnect system to show real WL stats.

I would probably have a better W/L if I didn't leave, I usually only leave if I'm playing in a full party and everyone is complaining about connection, or arguing over killstreaks.

I can honestly say I've never quit because of having a bad game, or losing, or connection. Hell I've gone 0-20+ more than once, when trying to win domination without killing anyone.

I generally only back out if I need to go for some reason, but if Im playing in a party I normally just sit at the back of the map and stay in the game, or for the reason I said above.

I can't stand playing in parties full of kill whores. I always run 3-4-8, but if I'm bored I might put on Mortars, Attack Heli or Chopper Gunner. In any one of those situations I get yelled at by my team for running that killstreak every single time, if it continues for more than 5 seconds I will leave because it's pathetic to care that much. The only time I dashboard is if I'm host and this happens, just so they all get a loss and I can hear them all cry about their stats

Isn't leaving a game alot more easier then turning of the console? So why dashboard and not just leave. And its your fault for spawning into that game OP, instead of spectating first, then deciding whether to stay or leave.
I log on once a week to check PM\\\'s. That is the extent of my hupitgaming. I HAVE left. I do not count checking my messages as still being apart of hupit.


If you want your name in my sig, PM me. The order i get the Pm`s is the order your name will be in the sig.

Re: Call of Duty Players and their stats. 1 year, 9 months ago #515485

Yes ive dashboarded some times when i was annoyed.. im sure 99.999999999% of the cod comunity has.

But ive stayed in games where people have left me, won a game where i was over 2min alone (dominatiion), before i got some teamates.. (i knew the people who left me -.-)

And ive won quite a few games on a 1-2 bar!

Havent played in about 2 weeks now so cant come up with some bad excuse for dashboarding I hate it.. should be patched.. make it like halo or something (where u get banned from the server after 2 dashboards or something like that)

My new account has 80+ wins and 2 losses. Both of those losses were due to the host dashboarding. Although that ratio is small, it's still frustrating.

Stats account for almost nothing except numbers. The only stat I look at is time played.

Of course you shouldn't judge based on stats.

There's many youtubers that are worse than me, yet have higher K/D's. Like Wings.


K/D or W/L measure skill as well as BMI measures body fat percentage.

Re: Call of Duty Players and their stats. 1 year, 9 months ago #517104

i have dashboarded on this occasion ONLY. i was put into a game of Demo and we were already getting spawn trapped hard...there was nothing that we could do about it...so i dashed...and in that case i'm not ashamed of it....

AND JUST SO YOU KNOW....DASHBOARDING COUNTS AS A LOSS BUT DOES NOT COUNT AGAINST UR CURRENT WIN STREAK IF YOU HAVE ONE RUNNING. so say i win 10 games in a row and lose 1 if i dash out of that one it will mark down a loss but if i win the next game i'll be on an 11 win streak.

personally i find dashboarders pathetic.

There is a way you can dashboard WITHOUT getting a loss. I have no idea how, but me and my hupit bros were against a party of 3 guys who had new accounts, one had no losses and around 40 odd wins. Even when we came out on top after a pretty fun game, he managed to leave just before we went back into the lobby. We checked his stats on recent players and there was still no loss...
Check out my blog, it\'s suprisingly dull: welshboymick.wordpress.com

I see your forum post is using logic? Too bad you\'re on Hupit, where logic isn\'t accepted as a valid premiss to an argument.

It could be through the 'XMB > Account Settings > [Triangle] > Sign Out' method. At least that's how some of the players that were on my friends list preferred to dashboard (gotta protect that 2.1 K/D ¬__¬).


I personally think it's pathetic that some players' sole reason for playing the game is to maintain or increase their easily manipulated stats. It's ok, in my opinion, to care for or keep track of your stats as you play the game, but when one begins focusing more on their stats than enjoying the game and employs dashboarding, ALWAYS playing in a full team to mitigate the chance of encountering any form of competition, disregarding the objective etc. etc. it becomes idiotic. What's even worse is when these players start a new account 8 or 9 months after the game's release so that they may have some very pretty numbers, and to top it all off legitimately think they're superior players as a result.

To throw around a quote that's likely been said a hundred times before:

Stats should be results, not goals.




Follow the rules.

Exactly, now every time i get message from someone to add them, i ask three questions, stats? time played? tdm spm? Everyone can make a new account and get a healthy w/l and a good k/d for that matter and if they dashboard on a new account, i just loose all hope.

It's not just the way it effect peoples stats but the way it effects other players, if someone dashboards whether it be on our team or the enemy team it's firstly a nuisance, secondly it's frustrating for the people winning to lose a game because of dashboarding but it's also contagious, one person does it to protect their stats, their mate sees the and learn how to so they do it and then everyone ends up doing it to match against everyones fake stats, the no one can have reliable stats and no one can have any fun. Now i don't have any idea how to solve the issue because for me it's unsolvable unless you target the community.

However from this thread i have learnt that at least some people say that they don't dashboard which is a least a little bit of hope for the Call of Duty community. The people who make excuses need to follow Rawxterz advice.

Everyone who has posted their excuses for why they dashboard - shut the fuck up.

rofl at people trying to justify dashboarding

Dashboarding is a hilariously sad thing in itself. Especially when people with 50k+ kills dashboard. AS IF going negative one game will make ANY visible impact on that precious KD of theirs. If they are truly good they will make up for the "loss" of KD and improve it once they're not in a "bad" or "laggy" game as they like to say.

And it gets even more sad when the same people brag or overly focuses on stats.
A friend of mine has a 1.2 KD, but he also has over 80 000 kills. And his current form is FAR beyond the stereotypical perception of a 1.2 KD player. He's just not obsessed enough with his stats to abandon his online handle for a new, free one on PS3 so he can have pretty stats.

Every time he gets shit for his KD in the lobby and the person saying it dashboards when he gets anally violated during the match, I just can't help but silently let the palm of my hand hit my forehead.

I could probably continue ranting but I'd also like to say that MrPacman made an excellent post eaerlier in the thread - the way people DO actually mock people based on their stats is as guilty of people dashboarding as their personal view on stats in a video game. Peer pressure, you know.

And in closing, let me repeat something that has already been said a few times.
Stats should be results, not goals.
