Post: Ranking up, KDR is not the answer.

(adsbygoogle = window.adsbygoogle || []).push({}); Ok, this has been bugging me for AGES! I've been stuck on a skull for ages now, so many different theories about KDR (Kill Down Ratio), and every "mission" I've finally obtained for the bowie knife haven't come true so far.

Since my downs are so high, it's taken me a long time to bump my ratio up (no I'm not crap at zombies, I tested the so called permanent jugg before the recent update where they actually put it in, so in 1 game of 2 player Tranzit I went down 100 times at each bus stop; depot, diner, farm, power and town. In one game.....) anyway enough about my tear jerking story.

So from what I read I've had to aim for the last missions which is if you have over X amount of kills, you need a KDR of ____. So you had to get a KDR from as low as I've heard from 60 all the way to 100. I always thought that was vague, I mean surely it would be a set number rather than in between number X to number Y?

But I rounded up my kills to an easy number last night, I'm on 100,000 kills to 920 downs, according to my calculations, I should been on a KDR of: 108.6 so over halfway to 109, and yet I still lack the rank up.

So I have met the requirements for the Bowie knife and still haven't obtained it, what I'm planning to do is, dunno why, do custom survival game on town and round the KDR to 110, but I'm gonna do solo Tranzit today and try and get to round 50 and higher.

I just want to know if anyone else has had similar experiences with both KDR (and I'm hoping, rounds), I'm going to assume it's rounds, because before the round skipping glitch was patched, those that did it and glitched to rounds 200+, were getting shotgun ranks.

Thanks for taking the time to read my constant headache in zombies Smile

From what I've experienced so far, it's based on how you do each game, so it takes your stats (kills revives downs etc) as well as what you get to into consideration.

I kinda think the rank is based on how well you do as an average, so it takes all the bad and the good games, adds them together, if there's more bad games than good, you get a low rank, and more good than bad you'll get a good rank.

I know it's vague, but it's kinda hard to be precise when there's no detail on the ranking system, this is just my experiences with it so far.

Lol. In grief mode i take at least 2 downs a game purposely going down by jumping on their heads when.they are prone. I do this to win the game faster. I don't think its kill to downs. I have not lost my rank or tally and ive taken 200 downs in the past month. I did notice my accuracy is at 2.15. I.think accuracy, headshots, and rounds play an important factor over k/d..
