Kasote Denzara A Vulture 792	Posted - 2013.11.16 13:07:00 - [4] - Quote You need to upgrade your potato for better recording. But I won't grief you for it. I understand. Thank you for putting up the strife that goes on every single day near constantly. Meta-based matchmaking is the answer. "I am a mercenary, I do as I need. I'll shed Amarrian blood for the freedom of my Minmitar allies but only for a price."

Yeap it's pretty much the story in 19/20 games It's an extremely serious problem that get's overlooked because it benefits a majority of the vets who actually actively take part in the stomping Every suggestion about SP based matchmaking or Meta level gamemodes gets dismissed by these people because they don't see a problem with what is shown in your video I posted a thread about holding a protest and it proceeded to be met with hostility by these people and instead of them actually thinking about why the protest was suggested they instead reverted to denying that there's a problem and to HTFU It's at the stage where the only way to get this issue resolved is to continue posting evidence like you have done and to hold an ingame protest, a declining player base hasn't led to CCP fixing the issue and if people not playing the game has no affect then honestly what else is there we can do to get the problem looked at and dealt with ?

Takahiro Kashuken Red Star. EoN. 1675	Posted - 2013.11.16 13:29:00 - [7] - Quote Are you suprised? I play solo quite a bit and get proto stomped alot, now i can proto stomp or bring out a tank but its pointless and you lose ISK either way and i end up using BPO fits and mucking about Now if im in a 6man group i can then proto stomp since its more efficient since its most likely we all have proto and we whack most games easily namely due to being against randoms You solo you get stomped, you group you do the stomping, there seems to be no middle ground at all

I keep seeing this suggestion, and I have no idea how it could be implemented. I've skilled up to PRO in a number of things, but I mostly run STD gear. Am I supposed to be matched with the protostompers? If they base it, a bit more intelligently, on the average meta I've run over the past, say, month, and I'm matched with other STD users, I can suddenly go full PRO and stomp everyone. If I kept it up, my average meta use would slowly rise, though, so I suppose I just answered my own question. Is this the sort of thing you have in mind? In any case, my gun game is pretty crappy compared to average, though I have lots of SP and high-level gear from playing far too much...meta-level matchmaking (by itself, at least), wouldn't address that.

(Though I technically am a noob as my KDR suggests...) Either way. I run in mostly militia BPO suits 99.9% of public matches. Don't think that just because you run in a proto suit means you're a proto stomper (god this term is so freaking annoying). You'll die just as fast to a militia gun in a SEVER suit as you will to a CK.0 or GK.0 with a duvolle AR. It's the same crap. And yes matchmaking sucks, even for the VETS. One of our best squads gets pitted up against 2 full squads of some of the top guys and the rest of our 10 team members sits in the red line sniping. OR it's the other way around. We'll get another full squad on our side against an entire team of snipers and solo players so it's red line in about 15 seconds. It's absolutely no fun to play those matches. We don't even run proto gear in these matches just to keep the battle going. They need to match make by squad size. If you've got a full squad you get put on one side, then another full squad on the other side, and then match that way. Director (Management) D.A.R.K L.E.G.I.O.N D.E.F.I.A.N.C.E

Now that that is out of the way, I support your protest idea. Here is how I propose it be done. These ******* generally all get off on how "leet" they are by racking up huge numbers of kills and how they have a KDR over 9000 and this is their proof of how "leet" they are. So simply deny them kills, rubberband your controller and spin circles in the MCC while reading or playing with fits or whatever tickles you at the moment. Yeah, they'll win the match but they won't get their astronomical KDR. If you're like me and can't stomach the thought of AFKing, run [STARTER FIT]s and take pride in knowing that you aren't losing anything aside from KDR (which really is meaningless in the grand scheme of things) while ever time one of them dies, it is likely that they are losing the cost of a PRO fits (since you're not really "leet" if you don't take absolutely EVERY advantage you can).

Luk Manag of Terror TRE GAFFEL 173	Posted - 2013.11.16 23:20:00 - [24] - Quote First, Nian San is a fantastic asset for the Dust 514 community. They set the bar pretty high, and I usually feel like a n00b when they slaughter my best dropsuits. Without teams like Nian San or Ancient Exiles we wouldn't have any reason to improve, and the rare upset is the best I can do to keep it interesting for them. I play a lot of one sided matches with the hope that a random shuffle will result in a glorious slaughter (a close fight). Matchmaking needs improvement, but so do most of the Dust 514 mercs (including me). There will be bullets. ACR+SMG

So simply deny them kills, rubberband your controller and spin circles in the MCC while reading or playing with fits or whatever tickles you at the moment. Yeah, they'll win the match but they won't get their astronomical KDR. If you're like me and can't stomach the thought of AFKing, run [STARTER FIT]s and take pride in knowing that you aren't losing anything aside from KDR (which really is meaningless in the grand scheme of things) while ever time one of them dies, it is likely that they are losing the cost of a PRO fits (since you're not really "leet" if you don't take absolutely EVERY advantage you can). I've never AFKed before, I probably should've mentioned that in the protest post and the only reason I'm going to do it on pubgames on wednesday's is as an act of protest Don't just do it on Wednesdays as an "act of Protest", just do it whenever you see a stacked amount of Protobears on the other side. @VAHZZ Scotty should be stripped of his yellow shirt and then issued a red shirt and a scrambler pistol shot to the neck. This would solve the matchmaking woes.... Alot of people do that anyway and all that will happen is further anti AFK measures will be introduced whilst the matchmaking protostomping issue will continue to be ignored, if it's confined to a wednesday we can then use that to say look CCP wednesday was full of players AFKING in protest at xxxxx and they will continue to protest every wednesday until the issue is addressed ... if people AFK throughout the week it becomes difficult to see who is actually protesting and who is just going AFK AFKing is just an in game version of a sit in protest Join the Revolution

PS Good job on the video evidence, It doesn't matter if the quality isn't perfect as we can see the problem clearly Alright, now allow me to preface this by stating that I am (and always have been/will be) 100% against AFKing for ISK/SP.

I keep seeing this suggestion, and I have no idea how it could be implemented. I've skilled up to PRO in a number of things, but I mostly run STD gear. Am I supposed to be matched with the protostompers? If they base it, a bit more intelligently, on the average meta I've run over the past, say, month, and I'm matched with other STD users, I can suddenly go full PRO and stomp everyone. If I kept it up, my average meta use would slowly rise, though, so I suppose I just answered my own question. Is this the sort of thing you have in mind? In any case, my gun game is pretty crappy compared to average, though I have lots of SP and high-level gear from playing far too much...meta-level matchmaking (by itself, at least), wouldn't address that. Joins Standard Match Any fit with a proto gun or suit is locked There. Technically, shouldn't it also include Complex mods? It could, but I just feel they don't really break the new v old player balance. For the State! For Caldari FW join Caldari Hierarchy Replication Warrior

Louis Domi Pradox One Proficiency V. 4	Posted - 2013.11.17 01:38:00 - [37] - Quote My thoughts: In battle finder there be an option where you can choose what level of fits to be used and everything above that level will not be able to be used like: Standard only- only standard suits,weapons,and modules can be used. anything Advanced or Proto will be locked. This way Someone who is running a proto fit won't ruin the day of some standard only user and they will be with other proto users This would only be for pub matches, not FW or PC. Don't know if something like this will work, but hey you gotta consider all ideas right? :)

Instead of fixing a problem ignore it, when taking action make the situation worse. This issue of Matchmaking isn't a new one. We've talked about it extensively in the past when there was a bigger player base. The two known solutions so far has been Battle Academy which has all the usefulness of a second-hand band-aid. The other was faster game deployment so people are less likely to check the roster. It is a complicated problem that has beaten the Devs. If there is a simple solution no one has voiced it over the last year plus. "She may not be Miss Right but she'll do right now," Thank you SR-71

Ive pretty much perfected my suit setup tonight and have broken all my previous records while running solo. You run a proto medium suit with a assault scram Now i can run a proto heavy suit with a boundless the big ***** huge difference is that i dont get the advantage of aim assist for my HMG and im the size of a house with as much tank as a LAV but its means because time to kill is on its *** knees so HP means ** all and its all about who can twitch 1st with 2 dmg mods on
