Honestly, AV is a really difficult role to play as a noob (I'd imagine). You don't know the maps as well, (no offense) you probably don't know how to fit a proper suit (or can't since you might not have the highest skills), your DPS won't be optimal so it will be much more difficult to take out top tier vehiclesGǪ not to mention you're not very helpful when you're on a poor vehicle map or there are just no vehicles. Perhaps you just need more time to learn the nuances of vehicle and infantry combat as well as SP to make fits.
Honestly, I think a logistics suit might be more up your alley for now, especially if you're like me with terrible gun game :). It's really easy, even solo. Just plop on a repair tool and follow a heavy suit around (and try not to get shot). Once you get a true logistics suit you can make a links suit to spam links (very important in domination), then change suits/respawn with hives and a repair tool. You'll get tons of WP even if you're on a losing team.
Not only that, but you can also branch into assault suits pretty easily from there once you get a better handle on the game and combat.
I've had matches where I go 0 - +5 or so but net like +4k WP. All those WP mean you score higher on the leader board which in turn means more ISK.
It might also benefit you to join a noob-friendly corp. Dust University is pretty good, or so I've heard (though I think they can be a little strict). Immortal Guides is another I think. Molon's been trying to develop a new player help group but I'm not sure how that's developing. You can join Molon's public chat "#SandBox" (no quotes) and LFS (looking for squad) if you want to as well [If someone wants to add more noob-friendly CCs, I'd appreciate it]. There are people who want you to succeed! (I'll try to send you some ISK later tonight).
www.protofits.com <--- FYI, use this fitting tool to test out suits you're interested in without investing the SP, see what SP/skills you'll need to fit what suits, and just general theorycrafting.
Best of luck! Hope to see you're name killing my ADS soon! o7
Dust was there! I was real!
