Again, protostomping does not happen anymore like it used to. If you getting protostomped in today's war...well, frankly, you just suck.
Are you serious? If you get stomped now because the 'elite' players have left you suck?
Fecking rubbish mate, and you should know better than posting crap like this. Q-syncing still goes on, and noobs are still leaving Academy and getting kerb stomped out on their very first game out in the wild.
Of the 8 people who joined this game at the same time I did, guess how many still play? Just one. Why did the rest of 'em leave? Cause its no fun to get killed without any chance to even fight back.
We can all argue why the game has such a low player base till the cows come home, but protostomping has to take the most blame IMO.

So you're saying the blues in public matches are highly competitive? Are you serious?
I actually play this game alot. Protostomping doesn't happen at all like it used to. If you can't handle the competitiveness of the pub matches (lol pubs) then yea, you probably need to increase your skill and game.[/quote]
I'm sure there are competitive blues in Pub matches. The point I'm trying to make is that the average noob out of Academy will find it difficult to be competitive because of the disparity between the players they are fighting against.
You could be the best FPS player in the world, but when you're going up against players with double (or more) the eHP as you, using weapons that do more damage and have abilities that you don't have, then yeah, you're gonna struggle.
Most people on the forums and most of the Dust guides I've seen say that you don't get competitive until you get to about 8-10 million SP. While you and I and everyone else who has kept playing may be the kinds of Masochist who's willing to tough it out until we can hold our own, the average player who's trying out the game isn't gonna stay around when they are getting killed and red lined over and over and over again.
If you want to play to be competetive, then you work away, nobodies going to stop you. I don't play because I want to be competetive, I'd rather play to relax and have fun. Maybe squadding up every now and again.
How about this? You seem to be in the same time zone as me, so why don't we squad up some time this weekend? We can see how the game is playing between us. |

He is well known for spouting bullshit on the forums. Simply ignore him.
Ah, I dunno, I'm not really one to block someone because I don't agree with their point of view. I hope I'm big and ugly enough to know that even someone you don't agree with may have a valid point.
If Michael Arck isn't seeing Protostomping going on, then I guess that's the reality that's he/she is seeing. From a personal point of view, I see it going on all the time.
Anyway, this is going of topic fast :) I personally think that protostomping is the main reason that the player retention is so low. Well, that and the rubbish NPE and lack of information in the game for new players.
I'm sure that CCP will solve it before Legion arrives...
