I'm glad your experience is different than mine, but (Destiny)

Of course I can hide, and it's what I do. But without any recovery I fail to finish off the majority of my engagements. My kill ratio is significantly lower than it was in D1. Without teammates around to clean up, I make no progress. I went from a 1.31 K/D in D1 to last few nights averaging a 0.67 KA/D in D2.

well unless you're getting paid to play I think K/D is secondary to having fun-- otherwise what are you playing for, to rub someone's nose in how good you are? (I mean really, that would be childish, not to mention pointless since no one knows or cares who you are)

For many of us, having an external measure (K/D) is an easy way to monitor progress. If that doesn't work for you, that's fine - but you should probably be aware that there are plenty of good reasons for keeping track of objective measurements that have absolutely nothing to do with rubbing anyone's nose in anything.

I compete with ME more than anyone else. I make a conscious effort to get better most of the time I play. (I can see the results when I stop doing that. And I have less fun when I stop doing that.)

I think it comes down to being aware that not everyone enjoys the same thing you enjoy, or (maybe more acccurately) receives enjoyment from the same aspects of the game that you do.
