I know CCP is trying to make money. I'm not opposed to this.
Some of your daily rewards are directly promoting proto stomping though. If someone is to get 9,999 SP in one match they have to kill 25+ people, hack every installation at least once, heal half their team a time or two, etc., etc., etc.
maybe kill 3-4-5 HAV's, solo. with a couple of people in each tank?
Know how does one do this?
Get lucky and get thrown in with a bunch of rookies with only militia or standard gear and no skills or go full on proto with a squad of equally fitted out proto gear.

Or getting 69,999 SP in a day, if you get 5,000 SP a match, that's 14 matches. each of these matches will take approx 20 minutes, so 280 minutes of game time, which does not include inbetween time.
7,000 SP that's 10 matches - 200 minutes of gametime.
or proto gear and proto squad.

I understand pushing people to do better and such and people don't have to try and achieve any of these daily rewards, but they are.
And you can acheive or it's easier to achieve some of these things in skirmishes where you can't in ambushes. You can push people toward skirmishes with high hack rewards, and you can push people toward ambushes with high kill or kill assist rewards.
You also pushing people toward proto gear.
Thanks for reading this. |

Okay, so far we've had approx 15 comments on how lame I am and how great they are and/or how they dislike "people who complain about proto users." I guess it makes you feel good to anonymously make fun of people on forums, whatever, as long as there is no name calling or threats (of course using proto retards is name calling and the first time you use that word in an email at a fortune 500 type company you would be warned, the second time fired). You could just not comment at all or actually offer something useful. anyhow
One suggestion that I just go with the flow and use proto gear myself, but make a profit at it or else it doesn't make sense. I complain, but I think this was an honest attempt at helping me. I could be wrong, but I will assume it was meant to be so, so thanks.
And 2 anonymous likes.
So essentially, no help from the forums.
In general I like the idea of the daily rewards. Just not the implementation.
Thanks for reading this. |

it's like posting on a COD or BF forum saying you think all the vets should remove their weapon attachments, upgrades, and all use starting weapons- what kind of response would you expect from those communities?
as for a thicker skin - thanks for the advice. i don't think it's controversial, it's just the loudest voices are on the pro stomping side.
When a squad of proto users spawns into an Ambush and the other team, all 16, are killed in the first encounter, why doesn't that squad get bored and leave the game so they can find a better opponent?
Nobody ever says this. But it's okay for people on the losing side to get advised to quit the match and find a new one.
The winners can stomp all they want, but the losers have to leave and find a better match.
And / or "Find a Squad!" regardless of whether I'm in a squad or not.
Neither of these is a "good answer" to the problem, but they have become acceptable on this forum.
The people on this forum assume certain things and make snap judgments. Some just to get a laugh, others because they fell good, getting that next kill around a spawning area and they don't want that feeling taken away.
Is that everyone, no. Is that most people, no probably not. Is it some of the people, yes. The game works best when there is some parity in the game play. I've been on both sides of the stomping. I prefer a match that makes me work for the points. Stomping or getting stomped is not fun. |
