I mean, I've played for a few hours only and I already see all the crap that Dust is (and why people aren't staying for long in it). I mean, really, am I supposed to face advanced and prototype players, with millions of isks under their belts, with teams actually facing PCs and expect us to stay? Not counting being blown to bits by every single weapon in hand.

Jeez, is it so hard to actually stop the stomping and actually concentrating on the fun? I will never defeat another player unless my team is stomping them mostly because I, in milita fit, the free one, where I won't spend money, will get raped by literally everything. I mean, are new players expected to be cannon fodder and like it? WTF? I though CCP had a god damn design team, and playing a few hours already brings up this mess.

Fix the god damn matchmaking, either you fight people with your gear level, or equal SP. You want to play against another team? Wait in line for a match with the same ammount of players on another team.

This stomping isn't fun, and it sucked all the magic out of Dust 514 for me. I don't want stomping, I want a decent fight.

Matchmaking is a genuine pain point for us right now and is something we'd love to get sorted. I don't have any specific updates other than to let you guys know that we're aware of the issues and want to rectify them.

do you go into an mmo and expect to beat an end game player? no of course not - theyve spent more time playing and have invested a heap into the game

Welcome to New Eden? We all had it happen to us. Not one player hasnt been stomped by PRO suits. The thing about dust. Is it makes or brakes the casual shooter. Either you go through out the pub stompes and start doing it your self or you quit and no one cares. If you think players with LOADS of SP and ISK will wait in line to fight? It will be you stuck in line waiting for 1mill under SP players. If your getting stomped all the time by ADV thats truly sad. PRO must be a nightmare.

I do think its a little messed up that causal players(normally COD) want to jump on here and think they will be GOD. Do the grind we all did. Get stomped like we all did. Earn your way up like we all did. Its really not that hard to NOT RUN AND GUN . Running right into a HMG or a PRO suit isnt the smartest when using free fits. Even if they use the same suit as you, the free starter fits. They will still out DPS, out EHP, and have tactics you wont have. Time spent is time earned in Dust514.

Steps to fix this
1 Dont QQ
2 Join a new corp
3. Make friends with corp members
3 GRIND
4 Did I say grind?
5 Yea I did say grind.
6 save up your SP until your at 3mill or so SP
7 Pick a role you want to be. Keep in mind this will be FOREVER.
8. Spend SP and enjoy the grind to 10mill SP.
9. Learn Top corp names so you know when to leave
10, Or skip all of this and read the "new players guide" it will help you.

They need modes like PRO and down, ADV and down, and Militia only. That way YOU get to pick if you get pub stomped. Keep in mind that PRO would have highest play out. ADV would have ok pay out, and Militia would have lowest payout. To bad the player base inst high enough for this. CCP could test it out with ambush maybe then add it into other game modes for a week and count how many players played those modes of ambush. To see if it would be worth it.

BUT to cry about ADV suits killing you thats very sad. I would never have said that on the forums. Less QQ more Pew Pew. Maybe you should ask for PvE Hopefully a causal player will know what PvE is. SHH dont tell and dont cheat using the internet.
