With all due respect but stop and listen to what you are saying.
WHAAAA noobs are leaving.

So you KILL noobs over, and over and over and over by using better gear and more sp for better skills leading to more noob killing and you expect them to STAY??

But then thats like folks using tanks in E3 build or dropships in Codex build going 40-0 and then asking why the noobs are leaving??

How about you use militia suits with nothing in the slots and only militia handgun with NO SP into your skills on a daisy fresh character???
So make it "exciting" and put down that AR and just use a nova knife or go melee only the entire build.

And on the game side CCP needs to make some noob only areas.

Went 41-6 on a 600k SP character with only militia gear, noob slaying is noob slaying regardless of gear brobro.

So you went 41-6 melee ONLY or nova knife ONLY??
And with EMPTY slots in the militia suits??
Please ELABORATE:

So yeah, good luck seeing any new players. I am honestly astonished how long this has been in beta only to keep getting worse and worse. I truly regret spending money on this ( merc pack ) lesson learnt, never again. CCP cannot have anyone play testing this tbh because they seem oblivious. Or just don't give a monkeys. Pun intended.

They've only dumbed it down and catered to noobs. Anybody that fails to see this either joined the game late or hasn't played a great game before.

Bring back "tier regulated" games. I.E. militia & standard gear or lower. Advanced gear or lower. Protogear or lower. I really couldn't give 2 ticks about "that's not sandbox". I want players, good games, and "fair" fights. There is a good reason in EvE you start in hisec. If it dropped you into 0.0 everyone would rage quit. CCP had this working on the night Precursor was released, we got 1 night playing it like that. It made things FAR more interesting. There was only 1 game FULL of Proto users. Those games were brilliant. I also dropped into standard & advanced games. Both brilliant. Except vehicles were not regulated in the same way. I felt bad calling in my gunnloggi vs militia nOObs. But that's testing.

Of course that is a drop in the bucket and there is a whole bucket of issues.

While I tend to agree with this,with all of the problems within the beta,you actually want to and more players? Ultimately,there really needs to be at least eight man squads,but I'm not going to cry for it until this beta runs a hellava lot smoother,and other tech issues are resolved.

But that's testing. AGREED! I also played a few games that day and it was GREAT!!! Now the best I can do is just use militia gear and try and kill the folks using the proto ARs. I die a lot but the hate mail that I get when I kill someone that had an expensive proto AR is worth it.

Pranekt Tyrvoth Pink Fluffy Bounty Hunterz RISE of LEGION 177	Posted - 2012.10.29 04:23:00 - [18] - Quote Bear in mind that this is a closed beta and one of the main reasons people are leaving is because it's painfully buggy, not necessarily because noobs are getting curbstomped. I mean most people are bad at first person shooters, regardless of which first person shooter they play - getting wrecked in one or the other isn't going to matter to them, they usually just keep playing. Hard to expect anyone to keep playing through when you have constant framerate issues, glitches, bugs, etc. Yes, it is a beta, but some issues are enough to turn people off to it. In relation to gear? Once you get out of militia gear, you stand a pretty equal footing/chance to everyone else, and some people are skilled enough to do exceptionally well even in militia. Regardless of whether said noob is in prototype or militia, he's still likely to get owned, it's just a matter of how much isk its costing him.

I'm saying you can't blame people playing the game for making other people ragequit. The random high sec matchmaking needs to be worked on. Locking gear is good and should be sufficient in most cases, but maybe another ranking like KDR or something could be used too.
Tony Calif Seraphim Initiative. CRONOS. 2002	Posted - 2012.10.29 04:34:00 - [20] - Quote SP is actually more important than gear. A militia starter fit player with say 12 mil SP is a god compared to a type 2 suit, with only 1 mil SP. figures based on last builds SP. But, once you have shiny stuff, you just don't want to use militia gear :P

Tech Ohm Eaven L.O.T.I.S. Legacy Rising 401	Posted - 2012.10.29 04:34:00 - [21] - Quote KDR locking also sounds good since its not very good to have a new to the game player going versus a 9.5 KDR player. Also seeing myself on a squad versus ten orange dots makes it interesting but it may make noobs ragequit.
SATORI CORUSCANTi Pink Fluffy Bounty Hunterz RISE of LEGION 253	Posted - 2012.10.29 04:39:00 - [22] - Quote SP, gear, KDR, I would be surprised if the matchmaking wasn't near perfect if all those things were taken into consideration :P

Pranekt Tyrvoth Pink Fluffy Bounty Hunterz RISE of LEGION 177	Posted - 2012.10.29 04:39:00 - [24] - Quote I don't see the need for KDR locking, separate lobbies, or handholding.

Running into the same people over and over does get a little stale but this is a closed beta so it makes sense.
