Although I've recently started using the RR and what I do can't really be considered 'fighting' so much as 'hiding on a rooftop farming'. I'm sorry.

There is just no point in leading the charge against a proto squad when your team only brings their best militia suits to feed the enemy. I will still try though, but many don't and I can't blame them.
You can say what you want I still think the tiered gear system is overly harsh towards newer players. It's close to impossible for a new player to kill a vet even by chance.
I just don't like the concept of increased stats for veteran players. The gear progression in Dust serves no other purpose but to separate the noobs from the vets. In high level engagements everyone uses the best gear anyway, and vets bringing superior gear to fight noobs in pubs only generates frustration.
I'd rather see sidegrades and specialization than straight up stat increases. But I guess at this stage in Dust's lifecycle there is little chance for a change of mind.
Jebus still hates scans.

Does that really matter?
At a certain point, all that, that SP does is grant flexibility and that isn't that much of an issue. If there was a team of highly flexible mercs actually working together, sure, but I doubt teamwork has shot up in my absence.

Get a proto suit yourself or stop playing the game. Proto stompers are not the problem. The problem is putting 13 **** players on a team with 2 or 3 decent players and expecting those three people to hold up the rest of the team as they go up against an enemy team of mostly proto suits.
Matchmaking and dumbass people with little to no situational awareness is what is ****** up in this game.

I find it hard to believe that people are still blaming the gear. The gear isn't even really worth the expense. If you are on the team that is lucky enough to have people fighting the only reason you'd want proto gear is to survive the sniper shots that hit you once in a while.
This is about the systemic failure of pushing team play and proper ISK payouts. I'm fairly convinced that someone is keeping Rattatti from raising payouts to push AUR sales. I can't think of any other reason why the payouts have remained so low.
Even the new reward system is tied to SP and not ISK.

One of my matches this morning there was a sniper named Slipshot. Finished the match 2-0 with less than 200 WP.
Or the other 12 solo players that died 4 or 5 times and just stopped. With 80% shields remaining the match was over.

why push when 8-10 people are ambushing your every move because they constantly scan or made it on the side with 2 6man squads to your 3 man squad. spawning in 13 times to get to play 6 out of the 13 suit because you get insta ganked at the only available spawn or blown up by one of the 12 re on the cru/uplink. solo= impossible if you are trying to survive sure 2-3 kills per death is possible but with all the rapid fire control Scr CR users that deal 1000+ damage before you can react .....

Well it certainly doesn't make sense if you don't get paid to push.
Think about it, even if everyone continues to play solo if payouts were high enough for them to profit in ADV gear you'd have all those randoms on a more level playing field.
We don't need tiered matches, we need randoms running better gear and coming down from the roofs to contribute.

So we are clear....
You attacked all eight (?) of our districts during our Silver interview as a troll two days ago.
Yesterday, after you no-showed the first battle, we were under the impression it was going to be all-ML against all-KEQ for one of the battles later that night. You no-showed the next four battles while we pubbed. Then, when it was time to fight, we entered the barge and saw Derrith and a bunch of RG guys on your team.
So we backed out...
We rung the batphone, came back for the re-up...and beat your team by a click.
Funny, you left that part out.
To your credit, you did beat us on the next attack. Alas, you couldn't re-up because you didn't have the clones.
So, last night, we no showed one battle and you no-showed six or seven.

You beat us by a tick when we had 10 players for the first half of the match. Funny, you left that part out.
Also, it was only 6 districts.
In all honesty there was never any intention to try and flip any districts but since Sosa is sending my players mails again.... Well, ask him how that's worked for him in the past.
No showing a battle from the start is a whole lot different than showing up, seeing the other team, panicking because you think you're going to lose, then backing out.

Half of the match? lol Just like the emails our team received saying you won when you lost -- whatever you say, bro.
And who's crying now? You don't see me/us making excuses about us being a player down that last match, do you?
So you know, we never panicked. We lose all the time -- it's nothing new for either of us. We simply needed a few minutes to ring the batphone and replace a few of our less-experienced players with more experienced ones...when we saw your team of ringers, we responded in kind...by no showing one battle. Just like the four you already had now showed. That's all.
And nobody is crying. You took the opportunity to troll this thread -- a thread that had nothing whatsoever to do with last night's battle. You no-showed four battles, we no showed one...yet you conveniently took the opportunity to point that out while leaving out the rest. There's no reason to be an ass about it, but for some reason you seem to relish in the opportunity. I'm simply setting the record straight for any readers interested.

I've been thinking about how to help improve this and have realized that it's too bad that the team chat channel is not used more.
I know the team channel can suck as immature players like to spam it with beat boxing, singing, screaming, and general attention getting behavior, but the biggest balance issue is having one team with coordinated play against a team with non-coordinated play.
In my experience, the most successful squads are the ones where one player calls the match and leads the squad.
So next time you are on a team that is not pushing, I encourage vets to use the team channel to call out which objectives/installations to take next, ask for uplinks, call out rally points, and give basic general direction (like: someone flux that uplink, take out that logi, etc).
Maybe a few blues will listen to the directions and the team might play cohesively. |

Whenever my regular buddies aren't on and I decide to join squad finder I run into the worst players imaginable.
Every single time it's either a bunch of people with no mics and no coordination (everyone flailing about doing their own thing) or its 2-3 people playing 20 questions because they're 'recruiting' for their MLG ultra-pro swag 420 deathsniper corp. When they do actually enter battle 90% of these self-proclaimed badasses end up going like 0-72 with 5wp. I've literally played with people who actually have cerebral palsy and cannot use the right joystick that play better than the majority of these 'people'.
Dust fundamentally is not an incredibly difficult game, it's only 'hard' because of the 'teamwork' requirement.
I will be incredibly happy when snipers stop getting sp and isk for their non-contributions in a match.

Also, it was only 6 districts.
In all honesty there was never any intention to try and flip any districts but since Sosa is sending my players mails again.... Well, ask him how that's worked for him in the past.
No showing a battle from the start is a whole lot different than showing up, seeing the other team, panicking because you think you're going to lose, then backing out.
TSO corps are such crybabies and it gives us lots of lols. Keep it up, boys. The tablets of KEQ PC Ethics should be released for public viewing. It's hard to keep up.
You're right.

I respect proto stompers on 2 conditions
1. They run solo. 90% of the time they do not have a proto-squad as their crutch 2. They have at most a few million ISK. I have 300k ISK and run proto. It means i can sustain proto gear by using superior gun-game and tactics to minimize deaths.

The problem is putting 13 **** players on a team with 2 or 3 decent players and expecting those three people to hold up the rest of the team as they go up against an enemy team of mostly proto suits. Matchmaking and dumbass people with little to no situational awareness is what is ****** up in this game.
This^^^
ThorOdinson42 is right about the payout system. Far too low, and I don't understand why? If I've put 200k into a battle the payout is the same as if I've put 1 mil in. Kill 25 get 200k. Kill 5 get 200k. I don't get it? Now they say vets get even lower payouts if we don't go balls to the wall, but if we do the payouts are still low? Wait a minute?!
The matchmaker needs to stop being referred to because it clearly is a notional idea. There's no way CCP can come here and say "there is a working matchmaker" with a straight face. 99% of all matches are one sided as ever. I've been on teams where the enemy team only had one true blue that wasn't in squad, and our team had our 4 man squad fighting tooth and nail for no reason. The other 12 were sniping, afk, or redline tanking.
However, we can blame alot of things, but it comes down to integrity. Some of these players i dont even want on my team. They won't push a swing set let alone a point! They have no intention of helping anyone. They still play this game like they playing C.O.D., and to them it's all about the leaderboards. They will see you engaging a target, but will not fire on him because they may not get the kill. I've watched this bs happen. They fight like they hate their team mates more than the enemy.
The fundamentals of team play have been washed away by the solo merc mentality. Low isk payout, bad matchmaking, and incompetency doesn't help. Some of these players make me wonder if they're this backwards in real life. I've even attempted to use the ever so useless team chat. Screamed in it, typed in it, but all for nothing. I just wanna know why they don't carry equipment? No links, no ammo, no scanners, but that rep tool gets major play lol! Then people complain about tankers with equipment?! You wouldn't have any links in some matches if i didn't jump out, kill a guy, drop a link, and fight the tank off you!
What I don't understand is guys like Thor are almost never on my team even "accidentally". You mean to tell me the matchmaker can put me against 6 Nyain san or a full q sync of two PC team squads 12 deep, but I can't get another competent player unless I bring em? I've been in matches that were utter landslides, but this matchmaker never puts me on teams with FA, third rock, or other strong players? It seems I'm doomed to carry academy graduates into quitting the game?!
The phrase "team carry" has become a household phrase. Need a back brace when carrying the team I've been doing it so long. I've even wrote to Saxonmish on one of his vids saying that one day the matchmaker will bless us to be on the same team so he has some F*CKING help when he loses a dom after going 55/7 while his entire team goes f*cking negative, and loses the match?!
If he's fresh out of the academy he's basically cannon fodder while we get crushed for not having team mates.

D*mn shame?! This game used to be beautifully brutal with every match going down to the wire. Then these guys showed up.... in dresses?!

We all know this is not what happens.
If you kill 25 people you will obviously earn more WP's than if you kill 5 people. So in turn you get more ISK. Nothing to complain about here.
The only valid thing is about when you put 200k in a battle and 1 mil in. That needs to be changed, as 'proto-stompers' who are apparently KD whores have to be to sustain ISK losses. If ISK payout systems improved then i am sure we would see more players willing to fight and LOSE suits to WIN

If he's successfully killed 50+ guys I would think the point would be open for business, wouldn't you?
If I've got a slayer on my team i don't ask him to stop slaying and get a swarm launcher for the tank. I GET THE D*MN SWARM LAUNCHER MYSELF!!! The man has killed the whole team! ATLEAST TWICE! The least I can do is push the objective for the hack FFS!

Generalized a bit, but you got the jist. Payouts are the same as they were day 1, but we've all evolved in performance ability. I can't be too mad at the blues for not bringing proto when they know they wI'll still only average 200-300k at the most. Using better gear+damage dealt+overall team performance should= Big payouts. Some matches I can break 500k, but I probably spent way more than that?!

I know the team channel can suck as immature players like to spam it with beat boxing, singing, screaming, and general attention getting behavior (mute button should be used on these people), but the biggest balance issue is having one team with coordinated play against a team with non-coordinated play.
In my experience, the most successful squads are the ones where one player calls the match and leads the squad.
So next time you are on a team that is not pushing, I encourage vets to use the team channel to call out which objectives/installations to take next, ask for uplinks, call out rally points, and give basic general direction (like: someone flux that uplink, take out that logi, etc).
Maybe a few blues will listen to the directions and the team might play cohesively.
You bring up a good point. It would be nice to be able to mute specific people instead of having to mute everyone. |

The reason why you guys are never put on strong teams is SIMPLE.
Anyone decent knows they must squad up to succeed.
So (Insert Corp Here) forms a squad and heads in. Well, our Mu is crazy right now. So we normally get a lot of newberries.
This means that if you are in the same que as us, anyone DECENT will be put on the other side. And most are solo players.
6 Strong Players together will always stomp a team of 8 or so decent players who don't link up.
The solution to this? SQUAD UP.

OR it could put a squad with a similar Mu opposite you so that it doesn't force people to play squads in a pub for any of the number of legitimate reasons that people don't play in squads so that CCP doesn't alienate a significant portion of the video game playing community and further deter more people from playing the game and keeping with it than it already is.

They have no gun game, they all trash players, they all have no respect. Get a proto suit yourself or stop playing the game. Proto stompers are not the problem. The problem is putting 13 **** players on a team with 2 or 3 decent players and expecting those three people to hold up the rest of the team as they go up against an enemy team of mostly proto suits. Matchmaking and dumbass people with little to no situational awareness is what is ****** up in this game. This^^^ ThorOdinson42 is right about the payout system. Far too low, and I don't understand why? If I've put 200k into a battle the payout is the same as if I've put 1 mil in. Kill 25 get 200k. Kill 5 get 200k. I don't get it? Now they say vets get even lower payouts if we don't go balls to the wall, but if we do the payouts are still low? Wait a minute?! The matchmaker needs to stop being referred to because it clearly is a notional idea. There's no way CCP can come here and say "there is a working matchmaker" with a straight face. 99% of all matches are one sided as ever. I've been on teams where the enemy team only had one true blue that wasn't in squad, and our team had our 4 man squad fighting tooth and nail for no reason. The other 12 were sniping, afk, or redline tanking. However, we can blame alot of things, but it comes down to integrity. Some of these players i dont even want on my team. They won't push a swing set let alone a point! They have no intention of helping anyone. They still play this game like they playing C.O.D., and to them it's all about the leaderboards. They will see you engaging a target, but will not fire on him because they may not get the kill. I've watched this bs happen. They fight like they hate their team mates more than the enemy. The fundamentals of team play have been washed away by the solo merc mentality. Low isk payout, bad matchmaking, and incompetency doesn't help. Some of these players make me wonder if they're this backwards in real life. I've even attempted to use the ever so useless team chat. Screamed in it, typed in it, but all for nothing. I just wanna know why they don't carry equipment? No links, no ammo, no scanners, but that rep tool gets major play lol! Then people complain about tankers with equipment?! You wouldn't have any links in some matches if i didn't jump out, kill a guy, drop a link, and fight the tank off you! What I don't understand is guys like Thor are almost never on my team even "accidentally".

I'm actually in squad about 95% of the time. That's not the issue. The problem is the other 10 are sh*t! Sometimes I do play solo. I follow blueberry players around, and watch them bumble smh?!

I only need to look at the teams at the beginning of the game. Its already been decided. I drop uplinks so i can farm my blueberries as the enemy farms them and because of Neverending scans, they take out the uplinks so i can't even have that. You wonder why some people don't fight? Sometimes its pointless. Id like it if when there is an obvious stomp thats going to happen all the blueberries just hide deep in the redline and do nothing to make it the longest most boring game ever.

Very simple causes:
1) If you see you have no chance, you don't throw yourself into the meatgrinder for no gain.
2) If you have the hope to be on par some day with enough SP and Proto, you will farm to that goal.
Combine the two and you have AFK farmers.
Dust Noobs live off that hope. If they wouldnt have it, they wouldnt play at all. Instead they play this horrid travesty of a tactic. When I started out I would go full sniper for about 5 Mio SP. So I know the mindset. But its really a stupid experience. Now with my 30 Mio SP and Proto power (and some flexibility within proto power) I can compete somewhat and contribute to a victory. As a noob that is close to impossible.

You know the answer you just don't like it. Protostomping and full squads ruin any chance of an even match so it is almost always funner to just wait a mismatch out than keep beating your head against the wall and lose tons of ISK.
Because, that's why.

I don't think its about k/d whores.
I think its about fun.
Games are supposed to be fun. When a game is basically a 6v1 at all times because your teamates are getting cut down immediately upon spawning, it ceases to be fun. When games cease to be fun most people stop playing them. |

KDR matchmaking does not work in a game where some roles have dramatically higher K/D ratios than others in a competitive environment.
If you take KDR matchmaking to its inevitable conclusion you will have the high KDR games filled with snipers and vehicle users and low KDR games filled with logis, hack suit minmitar scouts, and ****** heavies. |

It's not the proto though. It wouldn't matter if the good players were in STD. They are squaded up and working together vs a bunch of solo players. Some of these guys that whine about proto were doing it a year ago. Did CCP pause their SP accumulation? They should have proto by now as well as the passive skills to compete.
You see it in the kill feed, there are plenty of people that have obviously dropped money on boosters and other AUR stuff.
1. For years it's been more profitable to play passive instead of pushing for a win. 2. Corporate taxes have led many people to forgo corporations for playing passively in pubs. 3. Scout meta for the longest time allowed for people to have great success without needing a squad. 4. People playing passively while others have developed and honed their skills to become better.
There are a lot of factors that have led to this solo/passive play that plagues pub matches. Blaming proto is the easy way out.
If the PC proto squads were facing squads of players in ADV gear or better matches would be vastly more balanced than they are now.

Define "Passive Play". I mean I run Solo almost exclusively, because I dont have time to wait for squads. I log in, play 1-2 rounds ASAP and am out again. 35 minutes to 1 hour per day. Because life. So theres my excuse for this.
But playing "Passive", if not actually AFKing (AFKing sucks), seems pretty OK for me. If you see you are in a stomp, you know you wont accomplish anything in the direction of victory. Real armies do this: "orderly retreat". Since this is impossible if you want to stay in battle you have to find other ways to occupy yourself. You dont want to AFK you know. So what are the only things you can do? Snipe long range with whatever you have on hand. Scout and Ninja-Hack stuff, place uplinks where unexpected by the enemy (and hope someone is stupid enough to spawn on them).
In the end it makes 0 sense to stay in battle, if you can NOT A) win the battle, B) make some WP, C) make some kills, D) get some ISK &/or SP to develop their character (or E: **** around for fun, but that doesnt count here). AFKers see they cant do any of the first and resort to D and D only.
Just repeatedly throw your dead body at the enemy, just to give them kills? That doesnt feel good, it isnt fun, its a waste of ISK. Well saying that I ran some matches, throwing my APEX heavy at the superior opposition. But it didnt cost me anything and I could get some WP/Kills out of it. Had to do it though CEO Pyrex and Friends played "passively" in that match and I wanted to compensate for it

The reasons why people still don't play are the same reasons as before.
When I don't play a match, it's because the other team is stacked and my team is complete sh*t blueberries.
I, just like anyone else, do not want to play a game to get farmed in. There's no fun when your team is getting destroyed or when your back hurts so much from carrying the team.
That's one of the main reasons people will not play a match.

The Battle Academy Redux would get these people some much-needed practise. KD of 1 is where everyone would be if matchmaking was good (with a statistical curve, obviously, but it ought to be around 1)
and the KD 10 matches... well, we'd soon see who earned that KD.

Im not saying proto is at fault or even that prototype gear is a bad thing at all. My post was solely in reply to the implication that people running proto has no effect on the battle or that new players should be expected to just grin and bear it when they are put up against a shitload of proto stompers in a squad.
I run prototype gear almost constantly these days, but at the same time Im not one of these people who likes to pretend that proto gear doesnt matter or that new players who only have access to STD gear should even be matched up against players who can use prototype stuff when they hardly know what they are doing and everything is massively tilted against them in the first place. |

I understand where you are coming from.
Proto is better and proto squads working together can be devastating. My point is that you can't expect a bunch of randoms to compete with that running solo. They can't compete with any group that's working together in a skirmish setting.
I want to see development that encourages squad play. That gives incentive for players to join corps, squad up, and work together to become the hunters instead of the hunted. It shouldn't solely be on the individual player to seek out those opportunities. Some people don't even know that's what they want because it hasn't been presented to them.
