Hey, you can run proto all you want man, just do it in FW and PC where it was meant to be done. Make pubs high sec so this game has room to breath and grow.
Why? There are so few new players even trying the game so what's the point? You'd quite literally be wasting development resources and pathetic checks that do not actually help "new" players because we don't have any "new" players at all. Without a true new player audience, which the game will never have on the PS3 again, it's just a waste.
The issues seen in pub matches plague every single FPS game. If you give a blueberry a proto suit they'll **** the bed all the same. People are just bad. There, I've said it. People are bad at first person shooters.

Some players simply can't squad for one reason or another. It should not be necessary to squad to get a game. Where's the solo mode?
The solo mode is right out the door.
If you actually want to play this game by yourself I would like to ask why?
Matchmaking in every game is horrible. You can never know, without inventing a time machine how a player will do in a specific match. The skill gap, which cannot be balanced in a 16v16 team environment without making que times absurdly long, is far too wide and it has nothing to do with suits. Skills, sure but not individual suits but even then actual skill will always win.
In a no squad, 16v16 match, you will still have the issues that we have now. There will still be better players then you ready to kick your **** in the dirt until you come back to the forums crying "Hurrr durr nerf da photon suits" because THEY'RE BETTER THAN YOU. I know, it's hard to imagine that someone is better than you and didn't win a gunfight because of their proto crutch.
The only difference from DUST to other FPS games is that bad players have the excuse "But they're running proto" which in the end is nothing but an excuse. Just like your "Some players simply can't squad for one reason or another."

What???!! No new players?? What am I, a mushroom? I'm one of the supposedly nonexistent new players, and I can absolutely vouch that many times it's crossed my mind that I'm wasting my time trying to get anywhere with this game. I'm sure there are plenty like me that decide to leave rather than stick it out like me, to see if it eventually gets any better. Yes, I'm sick of being stomped and I'm always making choices about whether to stay in a match or leave when I get stomped, including playing FW where I EXPECT to be stomped. But for the moment, I can actually see a way forward to a time when maybe I won't. I'm pretty tenacious. The problem is, most noobs would have given up long ago, and it's the noobs that try Dust and leave because it's too ridiculously hard that is the real issue.
If you are, as you say a new player then you are a very small minority in the game.
If you're constantly making it out of the redline and to objectives regardless of how much you get done when you get there then you're doing better than the majority of the playerbase.
