I had a great few matches this morning where everyone was running low level gear, it was the most fun I've had in Dust for ages.

The problem here is that you expect every one to do things your way. you do not own this game therefor you can not tell people what to do. I do not use my proto gear just incase you try and point me out. We spent alot of time and effort to get proto suits guns and gadgets and your telling us not to use it? If you dont like getting killed by a proto demon then leave the match. I think you will be leaving alot of them though. Proto is part of the game. Learn to accept it or play a game you know you will enjoy no matter what. Im not trying to attack you but i keep reading the same old same old. *OMGZ STOP USING PROTO AND DO THINGS MY WAY* That gets really annoying really fast. Btw you should try and find a group to roll with or use the squad search. That might help a little......or not Ugh

Plenty of people have suggested it, I know. 'Tiericide' looks attractive as well.

But I am crazy after all. I'm a GalLogi who uses a Plasma Cannon and likes Regen more than eHP.

I get some good 'hate mails' where people are like... BPO SUIT AND GUN REALLY????? lol

I don't even have proto AV. Keep whining - You realise this would help you as well?

What if it was only for suits and weapons? That would really be enough in my book. Make any fits with a proto weapon or suit invalid as if it was out of stock. All pubs should be like that.
Rynoceros Rise Of Old Dudes 1085	Posted - 2013.10.26 18:31:00 - [12] - Quote This should be divided based on a dropsuit's collective Meta level, not the suit or the player's SP. But, I do love mowing down 150,000+ ISK Dropsuits in my 25,000 ISK Advanced Heavy and going at least 2:1 on the would-be show-offs. Somebody is going to say "...player count, blah, blah, blah..." but I think there are enough players running around in pubs (even at the deadest times - when I play) to populate the the lower levels and force the Proto wannabes to play on a lower level to play in populated matches. Which forces Proto exclusivity to FW and PC, where it matters.

Considering the skill bonuses are at most 25%, that's a hell of a lot fairer than what we've got now. A protosuit vastly outperforms standard gear - I'm surprised you'd complain that it's stupid that skills are a win button when we have protosuits in their current form.

Zeylon Rho Subdreddit Test Alliance Please Ignore 2849	Posted - 2013.10.26 19:38:00 - [20] - Quote I've seen this before in matchmaking suggestions. Tier or Meta-level restricted battles. It would make sense if you had higher-powered gear restricted from use in high-sec for example, ADV and lower in low-sec, anything goes in null-sec. It's is more fun, as I experienced trying out new stuff in battle academy before. I presume there's some other reason we don't have it, since it's not exactly a complicated metric to organize battles by. If STD-only IS more fun than a PRO battles, and everyone just played that mode in free fits, the economy falls apart. That, or it suggests balance doesn't persist past STD-level. Either way, it's suggestive of underlying issues.

I had a blast playing in standard gear vs standard gear. when we remove gear (and technically skills as well) advantage from the battlefield 3 factors become the most decisive in battle, player skill (how good each player is), position (map design etc), and tactics (making use of the map design for example). when one side has an ehp and dps advantage they tend to just blow through the opposition, creating a spawncamp where the losers just get frustated at dieing repeatedly and the winners get bored due to the fact that every enemy gets alpha'd out of existence the moment he spawns.

That might help a little......or not Im so going to enjoy running around on my alt in FW killing protoscrubs like yourself and getting myself killed by protoscrubs like yourself when I'm on your team, i've been waiting for friendly fire outside of PC for months just for this 1 reason ... and when you complain about people like me doing this and ruining FW for you I'll kindly refer you back yo this thread and the point you just made .. If I want to kill my own teammates and we end up loosing .. it's my choice .. so deal with it xD Some player actions ruin the game, just because you can do them doesn;t mean that you should do them .. ppl have been complaining more and more about protostomping because it's really hurting the game
