It's been said before, but the problem is not using proto gear. I use ADV gear in pubs, only recently unlocked proto but don't plan to use it in pubs for the most part (don't want to be a hypocrite, lol). The problem is partly matchmaking, but, I'm not sure how much that can be fixed with the smaller player base. That's the problem, it hurts the experience:
- I came really close to quitting the game myself several times because I got so crushed early on but the potential of the game did and still keeps me here. A lot of people don't feel that way and leave. Yes, squads are OP too, and I know that your GEK with prof 5 is way better than someone's with prof 0 and no complex dmg mod, but it at least gives someone a sporting chance, unlike the insta-kill from a duvolle at the games render distance. That's just disheartening to a newer player.
- Secondly, it just isn't FUN. Lopsided matches are boring as hell, the only nice thing about being on the winning side is you don't lose a lot of suits. That's the one argument I think everyone should at least consider.
Personally, I think the best way to do it is to make a mode where you can't use anything over a certain meta level, even out the playing field slightly, give noobs a place to hide and everyone else a place to try out new stuff. In the meantime, what's so hard about using ADV suits in pubs and saving protos for FW and PC?

Well said :P im not going to stay here and listen to a guy from a corp that no big corps want to attack because they do not want to look bad attacking a training corp
Then leave, just like we do when we see your fcktard nade spamming triple-HAV pubstomp squads on the board. What you sadly don't realize is that what you said totally proves everything people say and think about your corp. You basically just said "we are a bunch of e-peen stroking d-bags who would honestly love to go beat up on a bunch of new players but don't only because it would be bad for our image." You shouldn't want or need to do it because it's childish, stupid, and bad for the game not because it makes you look bad, a$$.
