The main effect of removing Prototype equipment from pubs will be the removal of joyously ganking fools for 150k ISK a pop.
NEWS FLASH: Those competitive, organized, "tryhard" squads will wreck your day in MILITIA if they had to.
Squad up, get good, and pray to the matchmaking gods. Meanwhile I'll be praying to CCP for the introduction of PVE so that bad players have something else to do other than wrecking my favorite game via forum warrior BS. |

I think you're confusing those of us who are trying to balance the game with those who are QQing about losing. Many of you can, and do, gank me with MLT gear. The issue is trying to take out a proto-armor-tanked anything while trying to figure out the game. You know why blueberries are hanging out in the redline shooting each other? It's because that's the only time they can line up a shot for more than half a second without getting instablapped. They're still trying to figure this game out, lol.
Pubs should be the next step up from Academy, a step down from FW. Pubs should not be simply FW with ISK.
I'll say it again. Squadding up should be encouraged. Proto in pubs is entirely unnecessary and should be discouraged.
The NPE is solvable by a longer/better battle academy. It's pitifully short currently, making it 5-10 times longer would help greatly.
Blueberries sitting in the redline can be helped by actually rewarding people for their performance in public contracts. Blueberries in FW try their best because the LP payout is MUCH higher when you win. Losing a public contract is still money in the bank, so why try?
If you're upset about getting instablapped, now you're talking about nerfing the rifles and HMG about 30% across the board, or getting rid of aim assist.
Removing Proto from pubs will not really help those issues, and will just result in people complaining about "Advanced Stomping". |

You can use a $20K heavy suit and wreck all proto gear in any class. You can use a beefed up adv suit in any class and compete with proto suits. It isn't god mode (maybe in closed beta but not now). Great! Then there should be little to no complaints about limiting the higher tiered gear used in pubs. 
A useless request that doesn't address the issues players are experiencing only muddles the conversation regarding what is actually happening in pub matches.
That's enough grounds to terminate this terrible idea.
Following this logic, It'll be "proto stomping" this month, and "advanced stomping" next month, then "standard stomping", while never addressing the actual issues.
People are bad at this game, and matchmaking should put them up against people within their skill range(most of the time) regardless of what suit they have. |
