Starter fits are the failsafe for this game. Imagine you literally had 0 ISK and no suits. It would be game over stright away cause you cant earn isk, cant spawn into matches and that means you get kicked before the match ended. Starter fits are the equal to the n00bships in EVE. When you lost everything you allways can start over again with a n00bship which is provided for free.
But in EVE it is provided ONLY then you have no ship. So it greatly would benefit if it was implementing here too. Whats the point to use standart gear if you can militia? Why use advanced gear if you can militia?
I support BPO removal; RDV to take your vehicles back; and racial weapons on starter fits
noob ships are given when you create a new account or buy one. the velator a free ship is given to the player when the ship is destroyed with or without insurance. and it is a disposable ship, worth nothing, cannot be reprocessed and is magnitudes less effective then a basic frigate.
easy way to make the issue a non issue is make the capabilities of the militia gear well militia. reduce the hp on the suits, reduce the damage from the weapons. yes this would make it harder for people while using the gear but its not there so people can get a nice fat wallet. the purpose of the militia gear is to get people into matches when they don't have the skills/isk to use better gear and that's it |

Come on guys, be nice.
Cardboard painted armor is OP. Idea rejected. I'm okay with the rest as long as there is a purpose. I want that ice cream gun to temporarily blind opponents. |

Sorry, but no.
1 million ISK is chump change in this game. Most players wouldn't be able to break out of that ceiling however if they couldn't grind for longer. Running cheap gear saves money, but you get your a** kicked a lot more often. You need SP and as well a a healthy wallet to stay competitive in this game.
Starter fits are there for a reason. So were BPOs.
The REAL reason BPOs were removed was because CCP wasn't making prolonged revenue with them.
BPOs didn't hurt the "economy" at all. They weren't better than basic level. And the EvE economy isn't a real economy model, it has infinite currency.
Fish in a bucket!

Monkey MAC wrote:Disagree, mlt fits are a hige part of the econmy, they contribute to supply and demand, they are helpful to noobs and are relatively in expensive. However the drawbacks of an all Mlt suit include.
Terrible EHP - 450 for my amarr
Terrible Weapon Damage - 35 for mlt AR by comparison to proto at 41
Terrible customization - Can't even fit mlt hives on Frontline suit
All round poor performance.
You aren't gonna be awsome in a mlt, ever, but you might do about average.
While my skinweaves are technically not Militia, I constantly end upper top 7 using only the skinweaves. Using a basic Assault RIfle, I still kill guys in proto suits. Using a Remote Explosive, I can still kill a Proto Heavy. Granted in a straight up fire fight, the proto AR will kill me before I can kill him... but when I have cover and am the first one to take a shot, that extra 6 points of damage doesn't help at all.
Because of the min. benefit of proto gear and it's cost, the most used items in the game will always tend to be the lower level gear. If I actually played with a squad, I'd probably end up with 2k + points using basic gear. So, I think personally I do awesome performance, unless of course you focus only on my K/D ratio.
In order to get proto suits used, you have to lower their cost, OR increase their affectiveness dramatically (thereby distrubting balance). So the only real option would be to lower the cost of Proto gear. Lower cost, more people will start using them instead of militia gear. |
