There needs to be change of how this works. Tried playing for both the Amarr and the Caldari today. I am a full support logi and in every match I came 1st place for my side bar 1 match. WP obvious and easy for me, but in some matches I picked up nearly 5x more kills than anyone else on the team. What the problem is in my eyes:
New players: 500-2,000,000 SP ( I understand there are some immense players who have low total SP, they are not majority though.) Obviously every tryhard and his sisters cousin are playing for Gallente and Minmatar, which is fine, except this means the spots in their matches are more competitive, so that when a new(er) player attempts to join they automatically have all four factions selected, the game will then find them a spot, which 9/10 will be on the Caldari and Amarr. It's killing it, this scare off better players because earning 65 LP for a match of agony just isn't fun. I don't really like the idea of blocking players from a gamemode but it is an all actuality in the runnings of helping FW in the long run. By stopping the n00bs from being thrown into the weaker sides, made the Caldari and Amarr might be able to pick up the pace a bit.
Easier access to Eve players offering Orbital support would also be handy.
Protostompers have found FW pretty nice, to get teamed against noobberries, consistently, more and more players are showing up in the best suits, not in an effort to win, just to stomp.
So basically, something needs to be done to stop all the red headed step children thrown in with the albino WoW kids. Killing FW. |

Or maybe you are just BAAAAD HTFU QQ MORE WELCOME TO NEW EDEN...Nah just kidding but yeah, I find it weird that I have to wait 5 minutes to get into a Minimatar FW but every time I tried Amarr it took me less than 2 minutes. It's like everyone feel that Amarr is the "losing side" so nobody wants to join it. |

We are nearly a year away from open beta and the team play in this game has never been as bad as it is now. It is painfully obvious that something has to change. There must be something to PUSH players to play in groups. You'd think getting stomped repeatedly would be enough, but that only leads to QQ on the forums. Perhaps an increase in passive SP gain for being in a corporation???? I'm not sure that's a great idea, but there has to be something.
It's not just FW that is the problem, but because there is an incentive to win it's all of a sudden a glaring issue that so many people have no clue how to actually play the game. I've been screaming for changes to incentives for months now. All the passive play in pubs (to build ISK reserves).
If losing 6 ADV suits in a pub match leads to breaking even and not actively participating in the winning of a battle leads to a 200K windfall the system is broken. Until that situation is addressed there is little to no hope that pub matches or faction warfare will be "fun" on a regular basis.
FW compounds the issue. Once the tide in the battle is turned in one direction the other team lays down even worse than in a pub match. People have to make ISK decisions far too often. I personally have no problem continually pushing a point stubbornly and my KDR shows it. There are not a lot of people like that and it shows in many, many matches.
But like I've said above, increasing payouts isn't going to do anything to help all these solo playing randoms to learn how to actually play the game.
Remove time in battle from ISK payout formula and provide a bonus to winning team... Watch battles become fun again.

I'm not moaning about full proto, I'm to the firm line of thought that if someone has earned full proto, adv or even officer weapons they can use them how they please. The issue is that the Galente and minmatar players smell the weakness they face and a furthermore cementing the game into a shallow grave, by mistaking new players for easy kills rather than players the game needs to stick around,

The losing side shouldn't get much.
What should happen is that CCP should build in a mechanic that increases payouts for the factions that are getting stomped. You should be able to search for vulnerable systems and see increased "offers" from factions to help turn the tide in battles.
This would be a decent proposal being that they've made it that standings don't really matter. (200+ wins nets double the LP lol)

u have a PS3....
a compatible mic, even a crappy one that is functional, can be purchased for about $10
you are playing a FREE game
this is a TEAM based game, I know us 'elitists' understand that and the above mentioned items are exactly what makes us 'elitist'
WE EACH spent anywhere from $12.99 to $175 on a headset
therefore we use communication and teamwork to WIN and not QQ cause we DONT use that
your arguments are sad, pathetic, and lucky I don't care about stats or Id look at your and understand exactly why you QQ on the forums in regard to your ineptitude
scum

Then don't expect much. You need to lower your expectations of your Dust experience. There's really no other way to put it.
Not being able to communicate would cripple any fighting force.
FW right now is similar to what would happen if you dropped off a bunch of dudes in an area that all spoke different languages and split them into teams.
Now imagine what would happen if you dropped an organized squad into one of those groups.

Seems like the airs got a bit thin all the way up their on ya high horse.
This isn't QQ about getting killed, I have squad, mic blaw blaw.
This is directed at the fact newer players are being thrown into FW, crippling any sort of close team battle. In a game that already has pathetic match making. If those players learned to squad, communicate etc etc you are right they would be better off. Fact of the matter is that they aren't and the game does nothing to push people into team play. More than happy to throw randoms in a FW match against a q sincd corp, who then get all high and mighty and act like you just did Cubs. |

Harsh as Cubs might be , he is right ...
You NEED squads with voice comm to be any way successful out there
I do think CCP needs to block players who either don't contribute due to griefing, or if you don't have the gun-game or willingness to talk in squad then don't play FW Way too many useless randoms are deploying in FW and causing the squads who are actually trying to win, to have horribly one-sided battles
Running Caldari FW earlier this week
for the entire game myself and one other squad member tried our best to hack objectives and for the duration of the battle we were the only 2 friendlies inside the map....
How do 14 players manage to not leave their redline ...?????? And why does CCP let these scrubs rejoin FW ??????

This is my issue, I and a few others are working our asses off, when respawning you see on the over head you managed to squad with 14 snipers, who managed to put an uplink under the MCC. Half of them run in see whats there and give up, knowing they can't beat them. I try to beat them still. Mic's will not stop a full proto squad from stomping 6 new squaded players into the ground. |

How are new players getting "thrown" into FW? 1st it's a choice, second, there is no payout. If newer players are not able to sustain losses so that they cannot participate then it is working as advertised. FW is also the fantasy or lore side of the game. If you are mad about a bunch of capitalist pigs or religious zelots losing for reasons other than you being a capitalist pig or religious zelot, then you're doing it wrong.
I'm not sure how this game could better encourage players to work together than beating the **** out if them. If you lose constantly than you are doing something wrong, not the game.

Im not arguing FOR the fact that matchmaking is not in need of major love.
it does.. in a bad way
but so, SO many players on dust, both old AND new, enter games solo, do not get on coms etc etc and expect a different outcome than being a highlight in some youtube video of some guy going 80-2 in a match.
instead of wasting all our time complaining about something that has been posted 4273 times and CCP is more than aware of, try to focus on getting those lowskilled players working as a team.. communicating
that alone will make things more competitive. just covering each others backs
OR.. continue trying to look through a dirty window and see me and those like me as 'elitists' and 'bad for the game' etc etc.
without us, this game would be beyond a joke and would only cater to 11 year olds who just got a PS3 and only have F2P access from mommy and daddy....
just sayin

a compatible mic, even a crappy one that is functional, can be purchased for about $10
you are playing a FREE game
this is a TEAM based game, I know us 'elitists' understand that and the above mentioned items are exactly what makes us 'elitist'
WE EACH spent anywhere from $12.99 to $175 on a headset
therefore we use communication and teamwork to WIN and not QQ cause we DONT use that
your arguments are sad, pathetic, and lucky I don't care about stats or Id look at your and understand exactly why you QQ on the forums in regard to your ineptitude
scum
Easy their spanky not having a voice has nothing to do ineptitude or lack their of i was making a point for other players and my disregard for mics has nothing to do with my lack of desirable team work & everything to to do with some jack wagon using voice chat as their personal soap box like most players wanna hear that garbage. and then there are those whom leave the mic on auto run so we can all listen too them eat cheeto's and kids crying in the back ground personal favorite.. I actually had my buddy give me a mic while he made a omega toon with me to try this game out could hear everything. I can see the benefit of having it and what wonderful tool it can be until jackwagons like above mentioned ruin it which I'm sure you've all had to endure since most are full mic 24/7
And just for the record i have gotten very fond of rolling alone running with a team hear and there only to pool points for ob's I enjoy my heavy kill taxie hmg. And exile assault bpo combo always carrying re's its actually easy for me not to squad so i can do hit -n- run's leaving little ambush points all over the map doing things you usually can't get a squad to do together..
Sometimes I see some team member about to kick@ss so I shoot them dead & Then shoot them again Because I hate Zombies<_<

I am a full support logi and in every match I came 1st place for my side bar 1 match. WP obvious and easy for me, but in some matches I picked up nearly 5x more kills than anyone else on the team. What the problem is in my eyes:
New players: 500-2,000,000 SP ( I understand there are some immense players who have low total SP, they are not majority though.) Obviously every tryhard and his sisters cousin are playing for Gallente and Minmatar, which is fine, except this means the spots in their matches are more competitive, so that when a new(er) player attempts to join they automatically have all four factions selected, the game will then find them a spot, which 9/10 will be on the Caldari and Amarr. It's killing it, this scare off better players because earning 65 LP for a match of agony just isn't fun. I don't really like the idea of blocking players from a gamemode but it is an all actuality in the runnings of helping FW in the long run. By stopping the n00bs from being thrown into the weaker sides, made the Caldari and Amarr might be able to pick up the pace a bit.
Easier access to Eve players offering Orbital support would also be handy.
Protostompers have found FW pretty nice, to get teamed against noobberries, consistently, more and more players are showing up in the best suits, not in an effort to win, just to stomp.
So basically, something needs to be done to stop all the red headed step children thrown in with the albino WoW kids. Killing FW. We are nearly a year away from open beta and the team play in this game has never been as bad as it is now. It is painfully obvious that something has to change. There must be something to PUSH players to play in groups. You'd think getting stomped repeatedly would be enough, but that only leads to QQ on the forums. Perhaps an increase in passive SP gain for being in a corporation???? I'm not sure that's a great idea, but there has to be something. It's not just FW that is the problem, but because there is an incentive to win it's all of a sudden a glaring issue that so many people have no clue how to actually play the game. I've been screaming for changes to incentives for months now. All the passive play in pubs (to build ISK reserves). If losing 6 ADV suits in a pub match leads to breaking even and not actively participating in the winning of a battle leads to a 200K windfall the system is broken. Until that situation is addressed there is little to no hope that pub matches or faction warfare will be "fun" on a regular basis.FW compounds the issue. Once the tide in the battle is turned in one direction the other team lays down even worse than in a pub match. People have to make ISK decisions far too often. I personally have no problem continually pushing a point stubbornly and my KDR shows it. There are not a lot of people like that and it shows in many, many matches. But like I've said above, increasing payouts isn't going to do anything to help all these solo playing randoms to learn how to actually play the game.
+10,000
You are so right. FW reveals a glaring problem that has been around since Uprising and possibly before. People do not work with each other.
We go in with two squads on a q sync. Step into the warbarge. Select team chat. Segmented spinning disk. Loads. We are the only two squads in the match with a load of blueberries under no squad
Type on team comms. "Squad up people"
No one does.
"create squad and squad up! voice on comms!"
Not a budge.
Enter match, two squads work harder than before to even out for those who aren't squad up. Blueberries are running around separately, going against protostompers. So now we have to do twice the work. Which means, its a ISK sink. And a objective chase.
Tanks comes onto field. No one reacts. Folks just run around trying to avoid tanks. Tank pins. Proto cleans up the hidden. Rinse and repeat.
And folks thought Academy would teach people. Folks think a tutorial can ease the pain. No. What else can you really do to tell people that there are strength in numbers and teamwork? You can't buff the player unless he buff himself. No amount of Academy or tutorial can teach that.
I agree 100 percent with your post.

Im actually part of some Wackos idea called the Lentarr Legion.I play for Amarr and Gallente. I always pick Amarr + Gallente on FW. I play Gallente once or twice Per night , all the rest of the games are amarr.

His post wasn't a "elite super cool alpha monkey g dog" post. It's the plain truth. You cannot expect to be effective in Dust without a mic and without rolling in a squad.
I did the no mic thing for a month. It was plain stupid. I had to invest into a bluetooth. You couldn't possibly just "get by" with this game like in others.
Cause when you meet a team who is squadded up and with mic, you're going to get a royal ass whooping in match.
You would think that light bulb would turn on for some folks...

Only time you have to squad is PC, and I can't play that because I never get more than 3 frames per second. Getting a ps3 slim in a few days, so maybe that will change, but you only "need" a squad if you need people to cover up the gaps in your gameplay.
You by no means "need" a squad. Even if you come up against full proto squads, which I often do, you just change around your tactics.

Amarr try but the Caldari are afraid of losing ISK for whatever reason. The pride of the Gallente and the tribal blood of the Matari keeps us going.
Only suggestion I'll give is having each player automatically locked to their chosen faction in the beginning. Those who care will switch or edit their faction or just keep playing with their single faction with content.
As far as organization goes. You could have a good squad without mics but then you need a proper leader. Mics raise your effectiveness though. People need to stop QQing either way since FW is supposed to be "hard mode."

There's no doubt. But there are too many players playing solo and getting their faces stomped off, over and over and over again. Then they run to the forums to complain about matchmaking and proto stomping.

OK so after 3 pages we can establish that having a mic and a squad is better in Dust514.
So back to the issue, FW, currently plagued by a matchmaking system that does not try to create even matches, the match making system gets the 1st 16 players and puts them against the next 16 players, no restrictions, no care if one entire team has 20+million SP per player and the other has under 20million SP combined between the opposition. The current situation in FW sees gallente and minmatar favored by a large amount, meaning that when a new player decides to try faction warfare, he has all four races selected and the game will automatically place him in the fastest opening, Caldari and Amarr. So Dust514 is basically AWOXing Cal/Amarr better than any of the little scrubs that are actually trying to do so.
Something needs to be added in the game, to allow the FW matches to have equal teams(as equal as it can be) creating better battles. It is then upto the players in these better battles to get themselves a squad, mic up and go killing.
Having a mic and a squad at 500,000 life time SP will not help, will NOT fix this. |

Playing Gallente FW last night, as I need specialist Plasma Cannons 6-man DMG squad came up against, a Q-sync of Contract Hunters My squad finished 1st to 6th place
So on to my point -
- 6 of us w/voice comm held out against double our number and won
- Caldari FW is getting better , they lost but I'm seeing an increase in q-syncing so things should be lookin up for the state I hope |
