DUST Search - [Idea] Proto game mode.

I think pubs should stay as they are, BUT there needs to be a OPTIONAL gamemode for everybody who doesn't want to field proto all the time.

I proposed it before, this would be like Academy 2.0 but call it different.

5 new levels after the academy:

1. up to 1mil sp
2, up to 2mil sp
3. up to 4mil sp
4. up to 8mil sp
5. up to 16mil sp

give these ranks some nice titles, and a screen that shows the achievement, and explains what is changing in the corresponding gamemode.

after that this gamemode just turns into a fallback random gamemode with no skill restrictions, BUT gear restrictions.
For all these modes, the only thing not allowed would be ALL GEAR THAT NEEDS LV 5 TO UNLOCK.
You would not be able to choose which gametype you play (amb skirm dom), until player numbers alow seperation!

This would give the new players a gradually more difficult gamemode, where they would meet similarly skillled people, without the proto threat.
After getting to 16 mil SP they would at all times play with vets, but without PROTO and officer gear.

No excuses for ******* up, because with 16 mil lifetime SP, you should know how to play this game. Also at that point, you can have the relavant skills for your role maxed (especcially the core skills).

@Rattati: I think deviding the playerbase just in two as you seem to plan, doesn't solve all the problems, since there are a lot of players with more than 40mil sp, that DO NOT WANT TO FIELD PROTO 24/7!!!

I would rather run in a gamemode that forbids Proto alltogether. It would still be a hard game against organized squads, so you need to somehow even that out more.

Because even though I personally not being a proto player I believe it unfair to the proto players since they've earned the suits What am I talking about? The meta changes. the community said that they would all be forced to go to FW which just sucks since its filled with trolls and no isk rewards. So I insist that they just port PC mechanics over to pubs (leaving corps and 24hr+ timers out of the equation) and let them be competitive with eachother using tactics and going all out with no AFKers as they will get now money if they lose.

Pokey Dravon OSG Planetary Operations Covert Intervention 5578	Posted - 2015.03.24 22:27:00 - [3] - Quote PC being top tier gameplay has little to do with the gear used, it's the fact that you have 16 players organized fighting against another 16 players that are organized. So unless the game mode guaranteed that it was 1 team deploy against another team deploy, it would just be a very expensive game mode, but not like PC.
