Yes you,
People these days seem to run proto 24/7 in pub matches and its starting to just annoying me. Cmon guys do you really need a glass duvolle or scr to get a good kill feed here's a thought, why don't you practise with crappy gear so your over all skills and feel of the game increase so when you throw on that proto suit you are so used to running bad gear that you just won't go down cause thats what i try to do. I have 27m lifetime sp and around 100m isk allways ready if i wanted to i could run proto untill the day i quit but that is no way in hell fun or hard so all im really asking is this, please stick to FW if you and your synced squad want to proto stomp. Think about the new berries that decide to try dust, proto stompers need to stay outa that pub zone so we can get more of a player base and community for this beloved game. I do think this problem falls onto the match making system atm its really bad like 50% of the matches you are thrown into are stomps. Everyone lets try and have abit of class and keep proto outa pub matches its more challenging anyways to run std or blueprints anyways, nothing better than killing a proto in a blueprint haha. Lets try and keep this game fun as possible guys thanks for reading this.

Every team has someone running proto.
So if I don't, that means I am effectively trying to make my team lose.
Did you ever stop to think about that?
No, you didn't. You were thinking about yourself. Not your team.
How selfish of you. Really now. |

While I don't mind people running PRO gear (I could easily kill them with ADV gear); I do believe that the massive amount of players running PRO gear 24/7 is really starting to have a negative effect on the playerbase as a whole.
I don't care where you stand on the "protostopming" issue, but you can't look at yourself in the mirror and say that "protostomping" is not a problem in terms of being pit against new players.
You also can't tell me that new players are going to want to play a game where they can't live for more than 10 seconds without being killed by a full squad of people like Nyain San.
If we don't implement a tier based matchmaking system soon, we will guarantee that no new player will ever want to play this game beyond the "Academy" Graduation.

Has lost two recruits to this **** already. Protostomping is a huge issue when it comes to new players in the game. Especially those that had been interested in scouting. We die to everything already, a proto weapon set for amped up damage is just a killer to alot of peoples spirits in the game. I heard a decent suggestion for the game options. Restricted game types with higher payouts for the proto teir.
Basicly like this. Proto teir game: Unrestricted weapons, modules and equipment. Sp and isk payout 1.5 times normal game Advanced teir game: weapons, modules and equipment restricted to Advanced teir at max. 1 times normal game rates Basic teir: Weapons, Modules, and equip restricted to Standard and lower gear. .7 times game rates.
Of course the numbers would have to be tweaked but the risk vs reward system is always a decent way to go.
Dedicated scout. Because the suit is underpowered. Imagine the good ones when we get buffed people ;)

A weapon tier based matchmaking system will not solve all the problems. What we need is a matchmaking system that will pit the 10-14 corp members that que - sync, against other corps that follow suit.
I can't tell you how many times that my squad of 3 have been placed in a match where we were the only squad on our team. Which should be fine; but we are usually against a team with 10+ corp members. It doesn't matter what level of weapon you run. You're gonna get stomped 95% of the time.
EDIT: I'm not saying que -sync is a bad thing. It would be really cool to run with 10 guys/gals. I just feel they should be matched against other corps that que-sync. |

How selfish of you. Really now. I'm hoping that your post was a poor attempt at humor. Anyone can invest in or field prototype gear if they want to. Anyone can play however they want. Saying everyone is OBLIGATED to stomp all the little newblets out from their holes in protogear and drive them away from Dust 514 for the win is asinine. To be honest, at the end of the day, it's up to CCP to "fix" this issue if they so desire. Players can field whatever gear they want for whatever reasons they like until then.
If not, then you are the kind of player that would be slamming LAVs into a wall in the redline farming WP with a repair tool for Orbitals to this day, telling us that we are all obligated to do so for "teh winz" as well. You'd have half a squad doing it at all times in Domination and drop an Orbital every time the point was being captured, winning 100% of matches. Obviously, this would make you the perfect, selfless player.

He just stomps much harder with it. At the end of the day, he earned it and he can use it if he wants to. It's up to CCP to place limitations on gear in certain match types to change the environment if they want to. Threads like these won't stop protostompers from stomping. It's their gear, they enjoy using it. You can enjoy killing them with Remote Explosives or Forge Guns and laughing or something.

If people couldn't spawn in and shoot you in the back while invisible and invincible it would happen less because people would spawn elsewhere and no one would worry about that rubbish.

agreed, also my problem is when im on the other end of the deal aka camping a CRU with my proto fit a noob will spawn and do like 400-500 damage on me before i'm able to get any damage on him and that is one of the main reasons i die to noobs i gotta learn to calm down and step back give them a minute to spawn. Sometimes with spawning i feel like its rolling the dice you don't know if you are going to spawn and be able to kill the guy while you have some invisibility or not.

How selfish of you. Really now.
and lets be honest sometime blue dots are just plain bad...i was ata supply depot befor the crash this morning and i slaughtered like 20 dudes before the end of the match..spamming random adv suits..i didnt die..i did have some proto nanos ide laid to strafe but i mean really....your so bad that with 8 people you cant stop someone from slaughtering you when they are ina fixed position dont blame the proto stompers for running proto..when they bump into people who know what they are doing they loose em and normally swap to sitting on the redline witha thale
if you cant coordinate with your teamates to kill proto bears you suck most every weapon in dust deals 500dps or higher in seconds..and all you blue dots do is cry..god save you when ttk is lowered and those proto bears have real survivability
people pull gear to counter proto gear why would anyone confine themselves to lowed end gear ina situation where everyone is using higher end gear if they had the gear to compete?..
people pull proto suits i swap to a higher dmg out put suit... that is all generally only adv |

First off, not using everything at your disposal in a battle is dumb and counter to the concept of winning. If you are a soccer mom and like to give out trophies to the loosing team then this game is not for you.
Second, there was this event going on, you might have heard of it if you bothered to ready the intro screens when logging into the game here is a linky in case you didn't:
http://dust514.com/events/winter-carnage/
If you read that, then you realize that using proto weapons last week got you the opportunity to earn special gear. A lot of players were trying to get that and thus were running 23.5/7 proto gear as a result.
I'm honestly getting tired of the "Why can't players nerf themselves?" arguments in this game. If you can afford it and want to do it, then it is a viable option in the game. I spent the time getting the skills, I spent the time earning the ISK, and I'm the one risking all that every time I enter a match. I'm sorry that you don't like it, but that is how this game operates. Try adjusting your point of view to understand that and use it to your advantage like I have. It becomes a way more fun game at that point.

Its just ridiculous and since the implementation of that carebear rubbish people camp even longer, I'd like it temoved, as people used to re group and re hack, now its spawn camp while being zerg rushed.

1 what playerbase, they all have protogear that have been her a little wile, its not a big playerbase.
2 It does not help that CCP have a sale on AUR ithems 70% off, all can use proto now.
3 where is there another place to use it, PC is for the few.
3 academy must have at least a limit on 20000 wp or 5 mill sp |

You also said there is a event in which people are using proto weapons to be rewarded with a suit right..WELL the suit that is givin per 10 kills of every proto weapon would be the quafe, proto gallente scout suit that about 75% of people will never get to use in the first place so this event gives no good justification to run proto 24/7 if anything its better off to run adv weapons, that is how you use this event to its max potential but nice try

I can build a better basic fit in 5 minutes than most new players could in an hour. without my passives.
with my passives, my basic scout would be an unscannable walking radar dish. my ar would have less recoil and deal more damage than any new players. I'd be faster and have more stamina than anybody else. I would be the silent death in the night...
on second thought... *no, no we are here to stop stomps not promote them* you're no fun *for the good of the whole* think of the isk *piles of it, enough to fill freighter, enough to buy a freighter to fill* disregard everything I just said! *what he said!*

Whats proto in this game is the players also, as one said earlyer in the post, the 24/7 players will be good whatever weapon he has. And with all base skills on max ( shield/armor ) he will be hard to take down.

Yeah matchmaking by gear wouldnt work, my std fits with basic mods statistically shts on any newb and matchmaking by sp segregates friends from each other, bottom line is that the only viable matchmaking is pitting squads against each other and solos against each other.
But then watch the whining about solo proto fights, endless whining, forever.
