Match making needs to be revisited.

In the 5 games that I left battle before I rage quit off my squad of 2 was set against a team of two fully set squads of the same corp. Not one squad was formed on my team. It was essentially full of solo players. That is fine, if they were playing other teams of all solo players. My squad of 2 was the only squad. How can a "successful" match maker consistently screw this up. It's come down to the point that I only run pub matches because I can't stand PC. Pub matches are the only thing I play these days. When you take that away from me then it's time to find a new game. I can guarantee that many people feel the same way.

AR Damage and Damage Mods

WTF is this. We all know that these assault rifles are so extremely over powered that no other weapon holds a candle to them. To fix this all we need to see are damage mods revisited, with proper stacking penalties and a reduction of the damage bonus. Complex Damage Mods should not be at a 10% bonus. When one damage mod can increase your damage almost more than 5 levels of proficiency, something is wrong! Reduction of damage also needs to be addressed with assault rifles in general, though I think the damage mod stacking would handle the problem quite well. I think a 2% - basic, 3.5% enhanced, and 5% complex would do it (though we all know CCP hates fractions, so this would never work)!

ISK PAYOUT

Increased reward of ISK after battles. A measly 200k payout for a REALLY AWESOME match sucks horribly. I can no longer afford to run my prototype suits in pub matches because of this. What happened to the games where my 3500+ war points paid out 600-800k isk!? What happened to my 1500+ war points paying out 300-450k isk? Why did the isk payouts drop so crazy. Was it because of taxes? We've lowered our corp taxes to almost nothing so that our members can get the most out of their matches since they're paying out so low now.

I really don't know what ccp is thinking with the way it works now and im not quite sure if its even working right... I think its broke...and I hope they fix it... but you can make a good profit if you have a few fits that are cheap or free that you can mix in with your protos...not every match requires a proto suit... especially the ones where your team has given up.
