This is part of why I'm loving BF3 right now. While my K/D hovers around 0.8, I can have a game with a K/D even lower than that and still be the one of the top three players in the round. I can support my teammates. I can destroy enemy vehicles or repair my team's. I can capture a spawn point or blow up a M-COM…
