DUST should take it's cue from another great Science Fiction.
Just like the classic movie Logan's Run - When a merc reaches 30m SP they are ceremoniously rounded up, sucked into the air and KILLED IN A MASSIVE EXPLOSION!
As in the movie this gives everyone a delightful 30m SP's worth of time in hedonistic, luxurious bliss - and then they die. And all the newbies get to laugh at them. And everyone's happy - even the condemned - because this keeps our lifestyle balanced and fun...
Just a thought....

The solution to proto-stomping is doing the same thing the rest of us said when we were new to the game. Save SP, save ISK, spec into protosuits, equipment, weaponry and modules, as well as core skills, then bust out your own protosuit and stomp them right back.
Whatever happened to those days? |

some people dont understand that the skill system technically rewards you for playing the game. sure you can get protostomped and rage. but eventually you too get to the stage where you can use proto gear and compete and reinse the cycle onto less fourtunate players.

I was just joking - i love the system too. I was kind of playing on the proto-stompy theme I'd been reading on the forums this morning..

Will do - I've been attempting to train up a newbie friend myself but oh boy it's like the blind leading the blind. Actually it's resulted in some pretty hilarious screw-ups that probably had team members shaking their heads with shame...

My worst one to date: was sniping with my thale. Saw another thale sniper out of range. Called in a ship go into redzone. Sneak up right behind him. Jump out of ship.......... BAM I fall off the planet into the abyss. justice was served.

Well yes I've made no secret of the fact I'm a whining loser... but I would be willing to go without the glorious transformation into Proto-Stomper because by the time I get there I fear DUST won't exist because of this issue...
But having said that - I still love the game and I'm still going to play it so boo hoo me...

People have been saying this for years and nothing has happened. Dust will be around and you'll be making noobs QQ like the rest of us.
You have to realize that people who would leave BC of this issue would leave anyway. This game is all about watching your checkbook and spending SP wisely. Those who fail to do so will quit. We've always wondered why noobs stick around. For the beta vets, it was easy. Nobody had proto until everyone had proto. There was no pub stomping except through skill. We're getting to that point again; most players have proto gear and proto stomps, once again, require organized squads. Logi, heavies, scouts and tanks are required to win decisively.
What this means for you is that 30 million SP will never save a lone player anymore. You need a good squad to win.

Not everyone wants to use their best suits or burn out ISK especially not in pubs also it is very annoying getting protostomped when you can easily go positive in advanced and even basic stuff.
