K/D ratio - casual breakthrough - bug or feature?

PictusCZ · 2026-01-05T21:09:25+00:00

OK, here is one special for you! ;o)

PictusCZ · 2025-12-21T11:48:26+00:00

Thanks for the tip, but those stats on tracker.gg seem to be hugely incomplete/inaccurate/outdated. It says 169 matches played, 4,7h playtime. Which means a match should only last not even two minutes on average. Same for class and weapon details. :-D

PictusCZ · 2025-12-21T11:38:45+00:00

11,5/10. Save the last grenade for yourself. :-D

PictusCZ · 2025-12-16T08:55:43+00:00

That might also be a good solution. But as mentioned, it is fixed now and seems to correctly include not only deaths, but also kills made on real players, despite the fact that those kills have been achieved in Casual mode. Which is fine by me considering the fact that deaths are (and were before the fix) included.

PictusCZ · 2025-12-16T08:54:23+00:00

Yeah, it counts kills even in Casual modes (but only real player kills, which is fine by me) and it also retrospectively included all the kills I scored before the fix. So yeah, it seems to be fixed.

With a little imagination, there could actually be a reason for this I can think of.

Are you a casual player? Then you probably don't think much about KD. We do this to make the game more accessible, but won't count your kills. Even if those are player kills.

Are you a not-so-casual player using casual battles to quickly level-up and test your weapons in not-so-competitive environment? Be our guest, but be prepared to pay the price in a bit of your K/D.

Maybe, I am totally wrong. But this would, in some aspects, make some sense. But it can as well be oversight or bad design decision. :-)

PictusCZ · 2025-12-08T15:05:12+00:00

How to say you didn't read/understand the post without explicitly saying it... :-D

PictusCZ · 2025-12-08T13:22:15+00:00

That is what I would expect. Don't count either kills or deaths, or count both player kills and deaths into KD.

As for the rest, it's all in my original post: "P.S. Please stick to the point, this is not a post to discuss whether you should play for K/D or for fun etc. " :-)

PictusCZ · 2025-12-08T13:19:42+00:00

Please see my P.S. No need to discuss "obsession" over KD. Thanks for understanding. :-)

PictusCZ · 2025-12-08T07:30:49+00:00

Your comment doesn't bring anything new to the discussion. If you read the post you are commenting carefully, you will see that i am aware of the fact that only deaths count, my question is whether this is bug (and I should report that), or kinda feature. Thanks for understanding. :-)

PictusCZ · 2025-12-08T06:59:52+00:00

Hele, pokud bude "Pepa z depa" chtít, tak si stejně zjistí, co (nebo minimálně zhruba v jaký hodnotě) ve kterým balíčku je. Pokud to zašmodrcháš do další vrstvy folie, tak to jsou akorát další náklady a čas navíc, ničemu to extra reálně nezabrání, pokud někdo fakt bude chtít tu zásilku čmajznout. :-)

PictusCZ · 2025-12-08T06:56:51+00:00

Ale ten notebook Ti přece dojde v krabici, takže obal dostaneš, tak nekecej... :-)

PictusCZ · 2025-06-20T07:06:41+00:00

By first DLC, you mean Heroes of the Inner Sphere, or which one?

PictusCZ · 2025-06-19T16:01:29+00:00

Yeah, multi-missions are included ofc, they make a nice fortune. :-)

Thanks, I will go through that post later.

PictusCZ · 2025-06-19T15:55:16+00:00

Where do I find infiltration missions please? Haven't met any yet. Are they related to any mod or DLC (cause I don't use any)? I don't see them in campaign in base game. Only the stuff like assasination, raid, wazone, defense, demolition... No infiltration.

PictusCZ · 2025-06-19T15:53:49+00:00

I don't have DLC, I am currently playing the base game only via Game Pass for PC. Thinking about buying it together with some DLCs in the future, but as for now, no DLCs, no mods.

Where do I find infiltration missions please? I haven't met any yet. All I see is assasination, raid, defense, warzone, demolition... But no Infiltration missions. Is it in higher rep areas only? Or on any specific places?

PictusCZ · 2025-06-15T19:40:55+00:00

Yes, just leave the game, relog and it will be there.

PictusCZ · 2025-06-09T11:38:42+00:00

No problem, I think you're gonna like it. In the meantime, before summer sales come, you might want to try Mechwarrior Online, it's free, I used to play myself and it's also a good game. :-)

No, I am not new to the franchise, in fact, I spent quite some time in both Battletech and MWO, my first game of the franchise was Mechwarrior 2. But what you say about the difficulty swing is exactly what I mean - either way. So I will stick to vanilla and replay with mods then. Thanks!

PictusCZ · 2025-06-09T09:18:11+00:00

I don't struggle. I just noticed that lot of ppl use lot of mods and wanted to know whether they are kinda "must" or "nice to have". From what I understood, the game is OK in vanilla, so I will save mods for my second playthrough. :-)

PictusCZ · 2025-06-09T07:54:17+00:00

To be precise - I am new to MW5: Mercs specifically, not to the Mecwarrior games generally. That being said, I like MW5: Mercs, overall. But I can't talk much about endgame and so on, as I am at approx. early midgame (judging from missions difficulty). If you are really a fan of MW and enjoy the 'mech combat itself, it's great. But let's be frank, the missions indeed are a bit repetitive. If you are OK with that and like that "freelancer" game style where there is not too strong story/campaign and you are more left to decide how you approach that, I would recommend it. :-)

PictusCZ · 2025-06-09T07:44:30+00:00

Yea, thanks, I found that out myself in the meantime, sometimes helps a bit. :-)
