Second, player skill always wins, gear is secondary. This is hard to accept for many people, but its the truth. Good players can easily outplay prototype lower skill players in starter fits.
I'll mostly agree with this sentiment. While it's not "easy" per se, if you know what you're doing, you can come out on top.
MAG KDR: 3.3
Dust KDR: 3.5 (when I'm active, spent a year as a dedicated logi, so overall is like 2.6 or something)
BF4 KDR: 2.9 (just started, have played for 2 days)
And do you know what I use?
I currently have 2 proto weapons, Wyrikomis for tanks, and the Boundless HMG for the odd time I play as a heavy and only on the underground domination with the laundry chute in the back. I also have a proto assault with an advanced Breach Shotgun.
My APEX suits are modified, but only with militia repper BPOs as desired ( I stuck an extra militia repper on them, sue me)
I have 3 advanced suits with 2 advanced weapons and one with a basic. (My logi suits and a scout suit)
And every other suit I use is a BPO with BPO mods and weapons. I find honestly, that if I die, it most often in a situation where an extra 100-200 hp and 3-6% wouldn't have helped. Either I get zerg-blobbed off the map, or some alpha weapon drops me instantly, so why bother?
Yet while these BPOs are my mainstay, I still do better than a a huge portion of the playerbase...
Not to say I don't do even better in proto, but I find it's usually only by a factor of around 8 kills, and it comes with the penalty of everyone on the enemy team -wanting- to kill you and putting in more effort to do.
Also BPO running means I have more money than I'll -ever- realistically need even if I ran proto all-day erry-day. Nearly half a billion isk, and less than half a dozen PCs in my lifetime.

You can see alot of confused newbies in militia gear, he walks out in between the crossfire of like 5 people and doesnt die at one point. For the time I watched I didnt see anything over advanced gear and the majority was militia/standard.
Also, y'know, he wasn't just using a base frontline suit. He had a complex armor plate, an enhanced repper, and a complex damage mod in the high which gives him better damage output than a GEK-38.
So.... Yeah, that's a thing...
