Players in militia and standard gear should never have to face proto if they dont want to. Can anyone think of any other shooter where players are forced to constantly play against players with vastly better gear every match. Hell even Eve isn't this brutal, a new player can stay in high sec in relative safety for as long as they like.
Pubs should be the place where low SP players can learn the game and have fun, not a place where they are constantly on the run from guys in better gear.
Tiered pub matches should have been in place form the start.
Players should have a choice of the following pub match tiers;
- Low meta level tier with lower payouts.
- Medium meta level tier with medium payouts
- High meta level tier with high payouts.
This would create a nice balance of risk and reward. Obviously FW and PC will have no restriction on gear.
Unfortunately I fear the moment has passed for this and the player base is too small to be fractured further. |

Then I'm against that, what made some people stay is the progression. Why upgrading your stuff if you can't use it? Then most FPS put any players against each other no matter what the level difference is. This is a MMO/FPS, progression is a part, actually the most important one of this game. What you propose would remove the progression feeling.
And finally, if they implement what you propose, you're gonna have veterans jumping into STD gear games to fight noobs and the difference of skill will allow them to get the most insane average KD you've ever seen.
You can still use proto gear in the high meta tier, hell you can jump in to the high tier in standard gear if you like.
The points isn't to stop noobs fighting vets, it's to allow players the opportunity to fight against players with similar level gear. Also remember the payouts in the low tier will be low. There will be higher payouts in the higher tiers.

This wouldn't replace matchmaking, the player would be able to choose what tier of match they joined. |
