NPE might be better than it ever has been but it is still crap.
NPE and CPE (current player experience) I feel is in a very bad place because of the actions of some. I play a lot of matches where half my team or half the enemy team have double digit deaths while barely being able to pull off getting 3 kills. I even see a lot of people who can't even get the 150 WPs needed to actually earn SP for that match because they are stomped before they have the opportunity to actually earn WPs.
I can only imagine the frustration some people would get knowing they just played a match where they were brutally stomped but was rewarded no SP to invest in new skills/skill levels to help them combat that same stomp in the future. |

*Bankshot at the arc for 3 up 35 in the forth quarter*
Maybe the other team shouldn't of gotten redlined. I always hear skill > gear right? Why doesn't the other team use that skill stuff?
*throws 63 yard TD pass up 27-3 in the forth quarter*
'Cause i have isk and I'm burning it because this game is slowly dying. Am I speeding up that death with my actions? Probably.
*Bunts to advance the runners up 19-2 in the 8th inning*
BUT I'm doing me. You do you. Im not responsible for your happiness. I'm riding this train till the end in the way most entertaining to me.
*uses another attacker after the opponent red card*
Because the chatter is right. Some of us Dont Even Care.
*Drops Major Lazor in the enemy redline*
Go play Defiance or something.
Using sports analogies is not a wise decision because I am just going to remind you that in the real world professional athletes do not compete against Little League teams.
I am also going to remind you that in professional baseball athletes are prohibited from using metal bats because it would lead to too many homeruns from the players. |

Another "stop shooting me, it hurts!" thread. I don't whine like a child on the forums when my team gets redlined and people are making trips in there to throw grenades. Man up :/
I can't understand how illogical you are. If you go around stomping in Standard and Advanced Gear then that is fine. Those of us who are pushing for change are doing this to try to level the playing field, we are not doing this because we want to prevent people from being stomped.
Stomping is going to occur because some people are more skilled than others. I was very successful at stomping people in my APEX suit using my 'Quafe' Assault Rifle but my ability to do that did not in my mind give me justification to use better gear against people who simply couldn't handle it.
Pull your head out of your @$$ and wake up to how absolutely pathetic you are being. |

But some teams can spend more money then other teams. If salary cap is an issue then they'll use team location to pull in better players. They use what they have to their advantage. Yeah Pro teams don't play little league teams but they are playing the same game with the same rules as the other team. Just because the other team can't score doesn't mean i should switch to a less effective defense. Carmelo don't give no fucks about a backup small forward. He going for 40. Zlatan dont care that your trying a new backline. **** yo centerbacks. Randy Johnson doesn't even know who you are. Fastball alll got damn day. **** YO COUCH ***** But im just Kyle Lowrey trying to be Tony Parker. Meh.
Have you ever noticed the difference between how Peewee Football, College Football, and the NFL play their games?
The concept behind what they do is the same but the rules are different in each game. You notice how in College Football the play clock stops every time they make a first down but in the NFL the clock continues? In Peewee Football 'forward progression' can stop the play without anyone every being tackled. Oh and lets not forget that in Flag Football a player will actually get in trouble for tackling another player (I know this from experience).
Why the **** am I explaining sports to you? This **** is getting ridiculous. |

True, but in this game we have veterans with self-esteem issues who choose to squad with low MU players so that they can go stomp newberries in hopes that in doing so they will magically feel better about whatever inadequacies they have.
Back when I was in College I participated in Intermural Sports and the school athletes were barred from being able to participate in Intermural Sports because everyone knew that would be ****** up if they did.
Why is this type of ******** accepted here? (This question right here is more directed towards CCP). |

This is a topic I've been meaning to post for a while. With other threads of the same theme being posted it is time I add mine in hopes of helping the cause.
If you are in a squad, running full scroto in a pub, and find your team pit against an inferior force of noobs....
DON'T IMMEDIATELY STOMP THEM BACK TO THE REDLINE AND FARM KILLS!!!!!
You're not proving anything and you are only killing the game. They will leave match out of disgust and you will leave out of boredom. You will get LESS kills by using your best gear. New players will quit the game.
If you want a real challange, want to help this struggling game retain those precious few new players, switch out your scroto gear for starter fits, let them out of the redline and give the noobs a fighting chance. If you can't still do well against noobs on a level playing field then you're not as pro as you think.
The way it should be is that we all enter a pub match using low to mid tier gear. If the teams are evenly matched and the fighting fierce then it will naturally escalate to proto tier play. If one side is outmatched they will be less likely to leave battle as there is still the impression of a fair fight. New players are more likely to continue playing long term when their chances don't seem so hopeless.
PC corps have been playing by an unwritten rule that you don't flip the last district of another corp. CCP did not enforce this rule, it was the players who took it up in order to improve planetary conquest as a game mode.
In that same spirit, you have the ability to affect the prosperity of this game in a positive way. You are not a dev, you can't implement balance or add new content to improve this game. But you can take responsibility for your own behavior and choose a play style that will do more good than harm.
Please, don't be a scroto scrub in pubs, give a noob a chance. Boyo i have just forge and flaylock, they cn kill me in FoTM AR GalAss costume anytime. BTW im no big fan of crutches since closed beta ergo i was in same possition like newbies. Instead of this populistic NPE nonsence we should push to corp to take newbies under their wings. To teach them.
We need a dialogue box to pop up on the screen that says something like 'Advisory: Visit https://forums.dust514.com/ to join a Corporation for a better experience' every time anyone under 10 million SP signs on to the game. |
