Why is this interesting?


I'm a big fan of Symthic and this was posted recently. It's interesting to see which weapons are used between the different classes and amount of kills. You should read up the internet website where I linked it from, because it contains explanation.

come on nibbs, just coz you fell out o love with BF3 doesnt mean you have to bash it :p

I wasn't bashing it. Drungly posted in the chat window that it was of interest. I'm trying to understand which statistic is of interest given that there has been so much lately about the overuse of the M16. And its not the game I don't like. Its the way I get when I'm playing the game that I don't like. It shouldn't matter what gun anyone is using, or how unbalanced things are. It should be about the teamwork and having a laugh. When I play BF3 I forget that bit. So, I don't play it and I am much happier.

It's not a specific statistic that is of interest, but all of them. I'm always interested in statistics when it comes to games like this and I think there should be a lot more of them. I've been checking BF3stats.com a lot lately to see the average amount of players online, which on PC is around 55,000 players. For me it's interesting to see what weapons are used between the players being part of this population and which not. The statistics which I have linked (the Symthic page) contain a comparison between the weapons most used before the heavy barrel + foregrip nerf and after. There's an interesting change to be seen there as well (at least for me). I was under the impression more people would be interested in statistics like this, but apparently I was wrong.

Anyway, if you don't see anything interesting in what I linked then I don't understand why you're even replying to the thread (no offense meant). Especially given the fact you're pointing out the discussion about the M16. If I'm getting reminded about that discussion with everything I post about BF3 then I'm a bit done with posting stuff like this.

My question was aimed at understanding what part of the stats was of interest as there was nothing written to indicate what the viewer should be looking for. It was a simple question. Nothing more and nothing less. I pointed out the M16 bit because that was the only thing that I could assume the stats were supposed to be pointing to. If there was something else then actually explaining that would seem reasonable, don't you think.
And don't for one minute even consider trying to kick off with me, cos I don't have patience for that sort of crap.
You really need to take a chill pill mate. Almost every post your making nowadays is either defensive or confrontational. BF3 is a game, that's it. If you find you have issues with it you cant resolve then stop playing it.

It's interesting you say this, because it doesn't feel like that for me at all. It's not my intention to post in such a manner to be honest. My remark about the M16 discussion was defensive yes, but that's because your post felt offensive.

I need to get off these forums I think.

This isn't about proving something or showing stuff 'people already knew'. I was trying to get a discussion started based on what weapon everyone in the clan uses. I know for example Supa likes to use the LSAT, but you don't see it up in the charts. I thought each clan member would find it interesting to see how much their beloved weapon is used across the board. And BF3 doesn't run my life, my girlfriend with her disease runs it. I would fucking WISH BF3 would run my life, so I could get away from this shit for a while. I find these stats interesting and it would be great of others peoples interests would be respected in some way. No offense meant of course.
