I mean if both team have a metalevel cap that cant be too different from the other team one, wont pubs be less one sided? It s just an idea but if someone want to go deep on this i think it can results something good

It won't save everything, but it's pretty simple..
Do we want newbs in Militia fighting vets in Proto ?? (I'm sure some of your KDR's want that)
Or do we want more even fights and a chance for players to get involved without dying 20 times ??
Pubs are a disgrace.. and recently there are a number of gamers venturing onto Dust514.. to deal with the same issues with NPE that have caused problems for 2 YEARS!! from not knowing fits, playstyles, tiers, chats, voice comms or Skill importance.. they get to stumble blindy into fights against players hyped up on god-mode proto slaying 
I'd really like to know why we are waiting ?? meta-levels were added, so for for no reason it seems 
Player Trading = Fail.. with the slow release of items, all that's been done is make the stomping vets gain more of an advantage over players who are still unsure whether they should skill Dropsuit Command or the Corporation skill  of course the trading is useful.. but it genuinely feels like CCP are promoting shameless stomps rather than equal fights.

On my alt - 1.2mil SP ..
I play occasional battles.. some of them are probably the low MU bracket as you get a majority of NPC teammates and no-one has a clue what to do other than run at red things or camp an installation.. Yet everytime without fail...
There is at least one merc (usually a proto assault) dropping 30+kills playing a completely different game than the rest
What good comes from this??
What's worse than CCP's negligence to the issue, is the players... some have seen how it goes and will only stomp when faced with the same, most just stomp there way through crappy teams with an illusion they are having a good game, at this stage let's face it.. whats left of the playerbase will not change, in fact more and more fall into the stomping bracket and make it worse for anyone newer getting into the game...
because of this, the only option is for CCP to put padded rooms in place for public matches.. screw freedom!! players have been handed that for way too long and we have watched the same situation repeat itself over the time on Dust.

Officer - fully banned from Public battles.
Skirmish - The most padded room (low meta rank fits)
Kill dom with fire, replace it with a mid tier Acquisition (med meta rank fits)
Ambush - OG slaughterfest (high meta fits)
Overnight, gameplay would improve for all players specifically the newer mercs and the only mercs who get screwed are the ones that drop 20kills on average most battles and throw a hissy fit when the fights not in their favour - rraaaggequits
Mercs who want to stomp in Proto/Officer have a place in FW/PC.. NOT public contracts!!

I guess if CCP could track the Avg. Meta level someone uses it could be incorporated into matchmaking. |

I think it would help if 15 starter fits dont have to fight 9 proto gears enemies but max 2-3 (?)

I think it's just needed that players are aware of Metalevels in Public Contracts..
- noob contracts (low meta fits, less ISK) - casual contracts (med meta fits, ISK) - tryhard contracts (no officer)
Metal Gear Online had a great feature (it's lobby's where pretty similar to Dust's Other Contracts) but you had to fight on even levels, white meant equal level, yellow a step up.. and it it's red you're dead  simple + effective
Teams were smaller in MGO but for a small playerbase, great battles where always available, I certainly think Public Matches should be re-worked completely - solo ambush - 8v8 dom - metalocks - lobbies based on skill level - Skirmish only in FW/PC
Simple changes that could add variation, improve battle quality and maybe!! just maybe make Dust more fun

It's a start, however it won't completely fix the problem.
Example to explain further: Lets say we have a match and everyone is stuck using an average meta level of 10. On one team (A) we have a bunch if newbies, some squads with two people, but they dont communicate tactics, and maybe one or two vets running solo. On the other team (B), you have the same run of the mill noobs plus a squad of vets with high skills and they know how to min-max their fittings within the restriction and they are completely organized (the squad not the team).
Now to organize a bunch of newbies with no way to communicate with them is hard. Most of them think it's CoD and other's just mute everyone else. So in this example, Team B would win because of the organized squad. Sure, if by somemluck Team A can orginize themselves, you will still have a superior (in terms of skills tree and min-max suits) squad to deal with vs a bunch of people who don't know how to properly allocate their SP or fit their suits.
I do not have any suggestions to fix this problem and I do not want to see squads removed.

I think its too late to change the behavior of this playerbase, but I think it would be a good idea if the game is ported. No sense in wasting resources on the pacifists that play this game currently.
Seriously, port it.

I can't support this enough.
I have 100m sp and constantly fight a moral dilemma.
Do I keep it even for the newbros? Do I go pro to stomp the stompers? If I kill a MLT red with pro while hunting, does he never come back?
We have freedoms for choices more than any other fps.
This can be sacrificed, and all who oppose obviously just want to stat pad.
I might also point out: eve has areas for noobs to enjoy game until they (think) they are ready for the big boy areas....
