No offence but this type of thinking is counterproductive and hurts the game much more than it helps .

Militia gear doesn't take away the fact that if a " Prototype " player uses militia , it will NOT perform like customary militia because of the SP's placed into items and weapons , so this would be fruitless .

Place a militia trooper against any " Prototype " player in militia and the militia will loose eight times out of ten , not from lack of knowledge ( even though that would play a factor ) but because of the performance of the weapons and suits even .

Maxed out shields and armor .. also weapons still carry over to any use of any suit and that particular weapon and more than likely that weapon will be a PR which most who played this game for at least four months have to prototype .

You people need to stop being so bias against prototype players , those who have two or more prototype suits shouldn't be so bias against those who care to wear prototype every match . That's just silly , people can play the way that they like and who is anyone , besides CCP .. to place a restriction on how people can approach or play this game .

You people have some nerve . You really think that newer players do not fight to gain the better materials and weapons ..??.. hell that's what militaries and anyone who is playing this game is trying to do and that's compete to the best of their abilities .

Stop trying to hold hands and sing kum-bi-ya , while killing these same players at the same time .

I don't own a single proto suit but when I do I WILL wear them as much as I want because I worked hard to get it .

You people need to tone down the hate because you are the same players that own prototype gear and if it was such a problem you wouldn't .

Fix it and stop being negative and bias . Come with suggestions and not with hate and ignorance . There's enough of that .. that goes on during game play and on the forums .

NO ... TIERICIDE IS NOT THE ANSWER EITHER .. there use to be a nice selection of vehicle mods and weapons but since CCP tried to slip a little tiericide into the mix , now we just have three choices , no customization and no multiple selection of the same tier . Look at the newer weapons and how they are implementing the role changes and it's clear , when they follow their own direction it's somewhat clear but listening to the community is taking the customization factor out of the choices and the game .
