If you can understand English then lethality means damage.

If you understand English, then you would know that that sentence lacks validity. Also, lethality and damage are not synonyms. Damage is to cause any harm, may it be mental or physical. Lethality is how deadly an object or a person is. Since I'm new to the game, I don't know what some of the stats mean. Lethality could be how deadly an object is when combining fire rate and damage, but damage itself is how much harm a single attack inflicts. I've watched some videos on YouTube, and the weapons that they have uses damage, not lethality. I am still waiting for an answer, smart ass.

Keep hostility to a minimum. Also, seeing as you appear to be a man of comprehensive knowledge of the English language, perhaps you should properly explain your question at hand more definitively as you did now. Rather than first asking a simple question that could be interpreted in several ways, then defining your question more comprehensively and then calling the person who answered you a "smart ass". Ironic.

Damage, in the case of video game terminology, refers to the amount of damage a weapon is capable of dishing out at it's business end. Same applies to the Attack stat in role-playing games. It's common sense in video games.

Lethality, on the other hand, is a relatively unused term in the video game world.

In proper sentence structuring, periods go before the end quotation mark unless you are citing a quote from a piece of writing in MLA formatting.

The version of the game that I have doesn't show damage, just lethality. I was wondering if lethality is a combination of fire rate and damage to create like a DPS sorted stat. I just want to know what lethality means in the game because for some reason my guns don't show damage.

Address the perceived grammatical mistakes and not the general message first? If you're going to correct someone, do it right. At least, be aware that the grammatical rule you've cited is exclusive to the American convention. A rule that is more typographical than it is logical.

As for your question, lethality is used interchangeably with damage in Pixel Gun.
 
Technically, yes. Lethality is the chance of dying. Damage is the amount of of, well, damage you acquire.
 
Well lethality is how dangerous the weapon is, not really how much damage it dishes out at its business end, or attack as it was before the 8.0 update. Good question. The whole lethality thing is really opinion with attack playing a role somewhere within it. Hero I know what your thinking about my grammar I'm working on its.
 
In my opinion, it's how fast you can kill a player with it.
For example, the lethality of a weapon is 30, it may as well have been combined with it's base damage and firerate.
 
Let's be honest, the statistics mechanic in this game are trash. Garbage. They don't tell me what I need to know about the gun, and generally make no sense to me. For example; 98 fire rate. What does this tell me? 98 bullets per second, 98 bullets per minute, 98 what? It's just a random number that doesn't even make sense half the time. Lethality is even worse. 30 lethality for the hellraiser, 6 lethality for the steam shotgun. Is a shot from the hellraiser 5 times more damage than one from the steam shotgun? No! This makes no sense! 120 mobility. What is this supposed to mean?! 120 m/s, 120 cm/s, idk, it's just 120. 120 what?!?! This system drives me crazy!!!!!!
