A friend of mine started playing today so I made an alt squaded up and went to the academy w him, kind of a personal tutor, show him what equipment's what and so on.
Hit 1120 wp at the end of the first match realized I would get the boot so we decided to run "operation meat shield" for a few more matches, I draw people out he kills them. Started the next match and I get ganked by a viziam... da fuq?
So turns out it's 1200 wp/squad not player to graduate.
Because you know the battle academy is WAY too long as it is.
1st match and he admits if I weren't there to explain that was a garbage game he would've just quit and deleted it
him-"So that happens a lot?"
me-"yup"
him-"wow you guys really need some matchmaking or something"
me-"... hahaahhaha"

If you were playing on standard definition (as I was at the time), said wall of text was nearly unreadable because the font size at the time was meant for HD.
HTFU. Let's be fair bro, we weren't going up against people with 30+ million SP either. The NPE needs serious work because of we don't get new players and continue losing bitter vets through normal attrition our game will die.
Good to know someone got the point.

yep thinking outside the box made life easy ^^ I know every time I get invited to try a FTP game, I always make a point to do a day or two of youtube research before I download the game and give it a try. Doesn't everybody? (/sarcasm)
He had been doing youtube research for the last few days too lol and I tossed him a M isk just to cover intro costs which helped. also managed to drop a dude and steal his tank on his 4th match ever which was definitely the highlight of the day.
We're squading up again this afternoon so this is actually a success story but just further illustrates the abysmal NPE

I love the "HTFU, when I started... blah blah blah", like somehow "this game used to be ****" is a reason to leave it that way, or "adapt or die" funny how this is used most often by people arguing against the game changing. (ya know... evolving)
Anyway if people are so opposed to logical improvement in a game how about you back to playing MAG...
oh wait...
so THAT'S what happens when the playerbase stagnates...
