In FW today I went solo, and unsurprisingly I got on a bad team. Fortunately the enemy team was equally bad but when I went to the enemy home point I stumbled across something that both warms my heart and makes me worried.
Two scouts, about 30 meters from each other, one enemy, one friendly shooting shotguns and Ion Pistols at each other like they are going to do damage.
This fight lasted what seemed to be ages but in reality only a few minutes.
It was like watching two handicapped electric eels fight each other above water.
At that moment I was happy with DUST and decided to call it a night on that note.

I played solo yesterday a few matches MFW. I was testing free factional booster.
It was terrible, almost all team it was MLT noobs vs. officer stompers (Carne con papas).
Last match was activated by some Latino corp. The same corp was on both team and they went from minimatar but imminently comes next players. I went 7/4 and quest what I killed more than f... all team. Stupidberry killed each other, seating deep redline missile instantiation etc. Less morons play on public now than on FW.

Reminds me of the Battlefield Friends video on youtube.
Though I still ask myself, why are new players playing FW or why are they allowed to play FW?

Another example.. why we NEED servers to be split between vets.. and those guys..
A simple choice.. Derp Contracts (what we have now) and Vet Contracts (high mu, slightly better reward)
I DO NOT TRUST SCOTTY TO DO IT !! Matchmaking might work with more players.. but there aren't any.. so....

That's because if they play pubs they get stomped by all the elites in there instead of FW! If they didn't have to escape pubstompers by going into FW they probably would stay in pubs where you think they should be. :) |

There need to be like a SP threshold or something. Don't know why I see so many of them in FW.

I agree with this. The contracts should specify what level of match it will be and you have to agree to be below that level to accept it. Anyone above would be excluded. Note that noobs should never be forced out of higher level games, or they won't learn anything and progress. If they're stupid enough to go up against a bunch of elites, why stop them? |

Seems like the best solution until you realize that will further divide the playerbase

Yeah but then if you do this you'll always have the noobs that think they're "vets" when in reality they are the noobiest of them all. How would you keep them out?

FW is the stomp-land.
Pubs are the entrance to it.
4 players don't stomp as hard as 8-16 players.

I've always wanted a node based system.
Based on your Lifetime stats you'll be restricted to smaller sized battlefields in FW as their trust and confidence goes up with you. They'll want you for the battles that really matter.
So lets say there are 3 nodes you can fight on. (I'd like 4 but for simplicity sake just three)
Small Nodes - Small Maps only, 4 players each side and must have strictly low stats. Lower reward than FW currently
Medium Nodes - Medium & Small sized maps, 8 players each side and more relaxed stats, generally the most played I'd think. Medium Reward would be what we have now.
Large Nodes - All map sizes, 16 players each side no restrictions, winner takes all. Larger Reward than FW currently.
I feel that this would incentivise lesser skilled or newer players to have a chance at FW with a lesser chance they'll get curb stomped by elite corps. Said players will have the ability to try bigger nodes if they wish but I'm thinking that will sort itself out as they feel it more rewarding to fight in a node more appropriate to their skill level.
Meanwhile the veterans would be locked out of the smallest node, possibly dipping into and out of access to the medium node from time to time due to stat fluctuations. I do this to try and keep skilled players from looking for constant easy wins.
(or maybe have medium and large open to vets and let the 8 man limit balance it)
Would this separate the FW base? A little bit, but it's a healthy amount. Not enough to kill FW entirely. It more so separates the vets from the noobs but not the other way around. I don't like the idea of locking everybody out. In nature, things naturally go from high to low, so I'm stopping the higher guys from wanting to stomp people who can't fight back while keeping the mode relevant, profitable and most importantly enjoyable for everybody.
Now, whether we can do this or not is the question and sadly I don't think we can but that is my dream.

There was better matchmaking when CCP open up the "special / other contracts" bit and we could select the battle we wanted to join.
Why not have them all like this!?!?
