Api: Player Death Data?

[selogreen]

So this might be a either a question or enhancement idea, I scoured the docs and the issue page looking for something on this but couldn't find anything. Is there a call to get data on player deaths across activities?

Things like:
X,Y,(Z) locations of deaths
X,Y,(Z) locations of killer
Timestamp of death
Killer's load out or weapon
Victim's load out or weapon
Type of death - i.e. melee, grenade, precision hit, the architects, etc

I am mostly interested in this data for the PvP modes, but also getting this data for PvE events would be pretty fun too.

of assists granted by the death would be lovely, too.

@selogreen Someone has been using the Halo 5 API, that data looks familiar :)

[vthornheart-bng]

I'll ask around, but I don't think we retain that kind of data.

[selogreen]

@iBotPeaches I may or may not have had heatmaps and other fun things using H5's api

[vthornheart-bng]

That's great - I really wish we had that data to provide you! I know that in the old Halo days, we provided that data with our PGCRs. Unfortunately, I don't think we actually have that info in the Destiny PGCR data - at least not yet. But I passed this Issue up to the Wonderful Wizard of Stats, and we'll see what he says.

@vthornheart-bng Awesome! Thank you, it would be awesome to have for destiny!

Hello everybody!
I want to ask if there is any progress on this as i'm not able to find anything in the documentation? I could be just blind though, so please enlighten me :)

I would really love to use this data for something funny i have planned.

Thanks in advance, cheers!

[vthornheart-bng]

Ah, a good question! This has been dormant a while, but unfortunately the update isn't great. We can't provide this kind of data without a much more significant change to the underlying stats system, so unfortunately I don't think we're going to get this anytime soon. Sorry about that!

[projectLinkN3r0]

@vthornheart-bng Wow thanks for the fast reply :)
Yeah i understand that, no problem.
My goal is to give some funny data which i hope the guardians would get a good laugh out of. And it would be an original idea which does not exist yet (at least in my knowledge). But without this data its not possible.
Keep me informed and thanks again for the reply m8 :)

[vthornheart-bng]

No prob - and I hope that someday we can provide it! I bet people could do all sorts of neat things with that kind of data!

Any update on getting a realtime update on a fireteam member death?

I wanted to build a Discord bot that would play the drifter yelling "ooooh" everytime someone wipes.

That and getting a dingening on killing a envoy / primeval.

Email seems to have corrupted your reply.

Unfortunately, where we were at before is where we're still at:

"Ah, a good question! This has been dormant a while, but unfortunately the update isn't great. We can't provide this kind of data without a much more significant change to the underlying stats system, so unfortunately I don't think we're going to get this anytime soon. Sorry about that!"

Sorry about that! I unfortunately don't anticipate us being able to get at this data unless there was a whole overhaul of how stats and realtime data is obtained: if that happens, you'll see much, much larger changes to our stats system. But there's nothing scheduled in the pipeline to take on that kind of massive overhaul. :(

Good to know, cheers.
