FW is currently a joke.
Some experience should be required to enter these matches. Join a game by yourself on the Caldari side and you'll see what I mean.
After you leave the academy, pubs should be the only thing available to you. After a certain amount of SP gained (500,000 or so), the player should be informed that they are now eligible to enter Faction Warfare, along with a more detailed explanation of what FW is all about.
To further help with FW, rather than having all 4 races selected by default when you first enter FW, you should have the race you chose for your character selected by default. This would spread some of the players that don't have a clue what they're doing, rather than dumping them all in Cal/Amarr.
Lastly, we really need all the racial starter fits. Let players choose which race they like best right off the bat. If someone likes the Amarr loadout in the beginning they might decide to stick with it and fight for the Amarr in FW.
TL;DR
How to improve FW
1.) Introduce SP requirement to enter FW (100,000 - 500,000 or so) 2.) Instead of all four races selected by default, make your race selected by default 3.) Introduce racial starter fits. Might incite a bit of racial loyalty if new players want to stick with the starter fit they like.

Totally agree.
The SP thing should keep the new players from getting stomped. One-sided battles are boring, and are bad for player retention. FW should be competitive where both sides are expected to know what they're doing, otherwise one-side wil always just stomp the other.
I totally agree with the default selected faction thing. Popular factions get flooded with vets, and those who have all factions get always thrown into the losing unpopular factions' sides since the popular ones are usually full. Not having all selected would make things less one-sided.
I also agree with the racial starter fits, but I don't think its necessarily relevant.

Agree an all except 1. I want to take new players with me in FW to help them out. But you can fix all of that by making FW accessible only with team-deploy. |

One thing for certain is that this would point out TK squad's after they juggle team mates for a while with hives and needle's .
Stop asking for tiercide , your killing variety and the fun of this game at the same dam time .

I like this idea. Combining it with other related concepts to help improve the experience for both new and veteran players results in:
Public Matches - high security space - no minimum SP level required - four person squads - no proto suits, weapons or equipment allowed
Factional Warfare - medium security space - minimum SP level requirement (500K or 1M?) - five person squads - any suit, weapon or equipment is eligible
Planetary Conquest - low security space - modest SP level requirement (5M or 10M?) - six person squads - any suit, weapon or equipment is eligible

Oh, don't worry. That's already in... could be related to the point that new characters already start with 500,000 SP though.

I asked CCP Logibro about the 2nd bullet, and he rather categorically rejected it.
As for the first bullet, something similar was highlighted to CCP prior to the introduction of FW, so by now I think it safe to say they've had ample time to review it, and it likely wont come.

Number 2 I can understand (many players would probably think that they can't change the faction they want to fight for)
But number 3 would make sense.

I'm starting to feel like this entire game is a joke. Bugs that go on for a full year (and then some), dev team not really tackling balance issues, just making it worse. super repetition in gameplay. I've just about had it......
Give DUST514 some direction.
