....I don't think you achieved quite what you THINK you achieved in your New Player Experience test.
CCP has treated a Player Account in a very special way that deters players from doing what you just tried to do. You can't effectively turn back time, and enter a Battle Academy matched game when you're a 6-month or more "Scotty-matched" player.
Your character doesn't matter, when your Account's performance/experience is being analyzed by Scotty to figure out what level battle to fit you into---and Scotty uses calculation and factors that are successfully kept secret from us.
I'm very sure you limited your choice of weapons/suits/gear successfully by making up a Novice Character in your PSN, but didn't effect the way Scotty limits your placement in a match. Otherwise, TONS of us would be using that method to exploit the Battle Academy and stomp using our PS3 controller skills alone.
And I reluctantly, (but do) agree with Rattati, if he thinks we don't need gun training tutorials. Any tutorials in Dust should be about player-to-player social interaction/ combat cooperation, Racial-design in weaponry/suits, and how to take those race-designs into consideration for your Fittings building.
These are the some of the core things that set Eve DUST 514 apart from your classic shooter games. The other stuff related to DPS, range, weapon spread, aiming, etc....should be left to the player to challenge herself and learn on her own (like we do in our other gun games).
Universe of good wishes for the 49, especially CCP Eterne...

This is why we need to buff the lower tiers to be closer to proto. There is simply way too much discrepancy in power. If proto was only 10% better than standard, like with weapons, newbros would actually be competitive instead of fodder.
Buffing their fitting allocation would do wonders for them. As it is, a fully maxed out character can't run a militia suit with all slots filled. I don't see how a new players is supposed to handle that.
Over thinking, over analyzing separates the body from the mind.

Even so...
We all know Mlt scrubs get placed Vs Vets...
You are right there is a lower bracket.. usually occupied by alts with experience farming newbro's
Splitting the playerbase was a bad move, balancing the players gear usage in Pubs should be the focus..
Newbro's should play alongside Vets, Vets should not be allowed to Proto stomp them...
CASUAL GAMEMODE. Damn you CCP... how many players have to beat this into your skull ???
There is NO justification for allowing higher tiers of gear in PUBLIC CONTRACTS.
There is a long list of bullcrap excuse why players want to keep it that way.. but in the end the game suffers |

NO.
The better gear.. should be better.
It should not be used in CASUAL GAMEMODES.
If a merc wants to test their new proto suit ? or those officer weapons they bought...
Take a risk and do so in a FW/PC battle.. not in damn Public battles. |

Dust User wrote:Hey Richard come play with us on ps4.
I bought my ps4 in December 2013, but no video games comparable to DUST, so my console take literally the dust...
I came from MAG (Massive action game) ps3, after DUST, maybe I will come back to planetside 2 (looks a little like MAG), but last time I played on it was empty to my eyes for the personalization fitting/skill etc.
Arrh, I will see what game I will buy... Today, I played 4 matchs in DUST, and it was never full, and of course still boring to dead.
OK I'm taking a break of DUST lol, good luck on the field the last mercenaries.

It probably feels impossible.
Indeed! That was me, 5 or 6 months ago! I persisted and I'm ashamed to say I've learnt stomping from the best, from being on the wrong end of it, and learnt to stomp back, so now I'm doing it! But I still remember what it was like... |

The problem is getting out of mlt suits...they are worthless. If you have a std or adv suit, then you stand a much better chance of facing proto suits.
Officer suits like the rattatis are another story entirely.
What garbage!
MLT suits are fine, they just need to have some augmentation to make them a bit better. Yes, the proto stompers are going to totally trounce you, but you aren't going to come up against proto stompers all the time. And MLT suits teach you to live or die by your skills not because your suit is doing it for you.
I use almost exclusively MLT BPO fits. Yes, I die a lot, but I manage to get a reasonable number of kills and kills assists for myself and have learnt a lot about how to fight in a suit that doesn't help you much.
There are a lot of people who seem to think that all they have to do is find the "right suit" and everything will be fine. There is no "right suit". Learn to fight. Any suit can be the "right suit" if you learn how to use it properly. |

Been there, done that, hated every minute lol
I've harped on about an 'Academy+' style game mode where both nobs and vets coudl go and meta locked to MLT items.
Even with passive skill bonus difference it's a lot more balanced. a MLT armour plate will only add X amount even at full skills ect.
I once did a test between a zero skill MLT fit HP gallente starter fit vs full proto tanked gallente logi fit and the HP difference is around 600hp difference. how the hell is a noob supposed to win that?
In academy plus at least teh HP difference between noob and vet is limited to around 100hp
Please fix my C-II hitpoints!! Jesus and I love you :)

This thread is just bullsh1t, there are players that spam proto/officer in every game mode since when officer gear were pulled in, calling 5-6 ADS or tanks in a game, new players get killed in <2 sec, then why play dust when cod has the same ttk of dust militia suit? If you still have time try to squad with "new players" that can have also 20 mil Sp and try to explain them why there are people shooting with a rep tool, Novaknives or while doing limbo! What did i tell them when they asked me what the heck was that? Thats the reason 999 players on 1000 leave this game
