1) Militia gear isn't that bad, it's honestly not. I've almost burned through my merc pack AUR trying other things and 90% I'm running a default militia load out. :) I still get the job done.
2) Head shot! Be a sniper. Think like a sniper. Eat like a sniper. Make love like a sniper! Head shot them and they'll drop in 1! The longest head shot I've landed was at 445m and I have my LH Sharpshooter at lvl 3. Not sure if that matters or not. But it feels like I can hit anyone anywhere on the map with a headshot, no lie.
3) How do you know if they're a high sp player? Sounds to me you're blaming the lag, or your inability to aim, or get the jump on the person because you think they have high sp? I wouldn't lean on that crux if I were you. It'll only make this game less fun.
4) This is a beta!!!! Should it run smooth for better testing? Yeah, you...me...the entire beta community want's it that way. But sadly, it's not and that is a major frustration we're all dealing with, not just you.
You have to take this for what it is...testing in a broken environment. Will it get better? We'd have to hope so, because a Free to Play game cannot have kitten performance if they want to keep people around. Follow?
Take time to read all the skills, see what they do, how they affect your character and think about how you play and what you want to accomplish. Then make a character....test it out. Delete it, and make another, and another until you find a good starting point based on the avail SP and what you want to do.
It's what I've been doing. READ as much of these forums as you can, look for constructive posts, laugh at the morons on here and then take what you read and try to apply it in game.
If you're seeing posts from the following corps...it's a good bet it's 99.9% accurate:
(in no particular order)
Imperfects
Zion
Tritan Industries
STB
Southern
French
Anonymous Killers
Kill'em Quick
These corps have the players with knowledge, game time and have logged serious hours in EVE and FPS'ers in general.
EDIT: If I were you search for posts from TEXAS H!TM4N ...he's a very good sniper in game and I'm sure he's willing to impart wisdom upon others if asked nicely. And when you have Texas in your name, you dam well know he's good!  |

Don't forget you get "salvage" at the end of each match, or the opportunity to find something.
So if you beef up your skills high enough, you will be able to use salvaged equipment of that level and there are items you find that cannot be purchased on the marketplace.
So again, keep playing, keep finding crap, there's items I have that I can't even use because I don't have the skill tree for it....
Word is we'll be able to sell that or donate it to the corp later on. |
