I've mentioned this before, but I think it needs another chance to get people's attention. I think halo2 multiplayer needs a LOT more stats then just total captures, kills, deaths, assists for each player. I think the basic thing the game needs to do, is each time someone dies, it records: killer, victim, weapon, time, location, and any special info such as if someone is a flag carrier, if it was a headshot, etc. Just this data would allow for a bunch of graphs, charts, and other stuff for people to analyze, brag, and argue about.

if anybody has played time splitters 2 then you will know what i'm talking about. i think they should like have like awards at the end of each MP fight which says like (most cowardly, best shot, backtracker, etc) i think that would be cool.

bah

If you click on stats, you get directed to a page that would appear to be in place for Bungie.net statistics, not statistics for Halo 2. Sorry to burst your bubble.

MichaelSword did. People seem to have the misconception that the stats section will be used for Halo 2 LIVE stats, when it is going to be used for Bungie.net site statistics. or so the webpage would hint.

Longest sniper kill would be funny, but that's going to get so 'faked' it's not even funny.

the more stats the merrier. you've got to add some degrading stats too, like "# of times punked in the back of the head by a melee." and "# of times plasma grenades stuck on face." and so forth.

Well what I have to say is in a previous post of mine....here. So other than that all I have to say is. I wish people would look around and stop repeating threads, because what you want to say might already have been posted. There I'm done, you won't hear that from me again.

Also, another post I think people should start talking about is here.

Twelve Large ²

An army of sheep led by a lion would defeat an army of lions led by a sheep.

What stats shouldn't get tracked? I agree with whoever says "the more, the merrier!"

But I would stress the importance of "team/unit" stats that fully encourage team play over Xbox Live.

brilliant. I knew I was forgetting some good ones! "most often run over" "beaten down by flag carrier" "biggest spawn camper" "best Kill:Death ratio". Whoever mentioned "most teabagging" has a good one too. Stats that expose the pricks are good, especially if the data is saved & accumulated. Some stats to promote team unity would be nice. You could have "team" stats (i'm not sure what some good ones are though), and then you could have some individual stats/recognitions for team-players. Again, I don't know what the stats would be exactly, some would probably like "most kills defending base"

As to some of the other comments in the thread... I don't know what "stat" page you're talking about The Rip Saw. And I wasn't really talking about permanently storing stats online (although it would definitely be cool - look at Unreal Tournament's stat system for an example of one done really well). Although if you could save end-of-game stats onto your harddrive to brag about later (particularly for LAN games), that might be sort of nifty.

Someone mentioned this had been posted before. Their post looks more SP-stat oriented, which would be cool (especially for Co-op, it would make it more into a competition), although I was talking more MP-oriented. I couldn't find a "Search Forum for..." button anyway.

stats should save directly to your profile everytime so after everygame if you clicked on your profile you could go to "stats" section and see acuracy, kills, deaths, stuff like that

Me and my halo friends have said this so much it hurts. I hate when some n00b comes and plays with us, just HAPPENS to get rockets and takes 1st place by 1 kill (and still has more deaths then kills) just because his team mates let him get rockets in a TS. Then he brags out his @$$ like hes god of halo...

then of course he goes back to pulling last place the rest of the night

but i'm in 100% agreeance they need more stat keeping.

But I doubt most people can get that. I don't think BG is even that long, and that limit would probably almost never be reached. But you could make it Longest Headshot With Sniper.
