Preface: I'm not really sure if this is a bug/glitch, so I'm asking about it here. If this belongs somewhere else, please direct me to the appropriate place to post this. Thanks!

Ok, now that that's out of the way, let's begin.

I noticed that the KDR in Recursion is always significantly lower than average for overall player KDR. Mine and otherwise. According to Recursion my KDR is only 0.99, but according to PlanetSide Universe (http://www.planetside-universe.com/character-5428245075231489473.php) and PlanetSide2.com (https://www.planetside2.com/players/#!/5428245075231489473/stats), my KDR is actually 1.11 (at the time of this post). I notice similar issues with enemies and teammates. The other day a member of my Outfit killed me because we were messing around and I asked why his KDR was so low, but when he went to check it was significantly higher.

So my question becomes, where does Recursion pull its stats from for KDRs? Is this a bug where it pulls a KDR that's outdated? Does Recursion measure KDR in some strange fashion? What's the issue here?

Thanks in advance for replies and enlightenment on the situation!

P.S. I look forward to the UI overhaul and stuff coming up in Recursion; looks great!

The Census API actually tracks both death stats. One with revives subtracted (which the player's site uses) and one without revives subtracted (Which we and Dasanfall Stats uses)

Additionally real-time revive events are not available so we can't accurately calculate real-time revive influenced KDR.

From another similar thread.


Edit: Ah, it's been posted.

Couldn't find the thread before. I think summer vacation has dulled my search skills. :P Thanks!
