The only problem here is that you seem to think that you deserve to run around in full proto gear without any consequence just because you've got the SP for it.
The risk of using an expensive loadout is directly proportional to how well a player can discern the state of play in a current game, and it's a good thing that players need to make a cognitive decision in deciding what they bring to the field as more choice always leads to a better game experience.
It's this risk of losing that 300k loadout that is one of the only things that remotely balances the constant noob pubstomps we keep seeing between low and high SP characters, removing it would disastrously imbalance games in favour of the established playerbase as it stops ISK risk from being a factor and makes SP the main check in deciding the outcome of a game.
If you, personally, cannot handle the risk factor, are unable to play to a standard to make your investment viable (this includes deciding to spawn at undefended points, for which you fully deserve to die for), are unable to bring enough friendly support and communication to a match, nor capable of accurately predicting how much resistance you'll face in your glistening noob shaming proto set, then you always have the choice of using a low cost variant. The magic of the skill system means you're still going to have that edge against most other plays due to higher SP, you just won't be able to use it as so much of a crutch for being terrible at the game.

First things first dude, if you're getting stressed over not being able to use a proto loadout every spawn, why are you doing it? What's wrong with using cheaper items? Why do you think you MUST USE THE MOST EXPENSIVE STUFF OR NOTHING AT ALLLLLLL? Once you realise that there's absolutely no need for you to pimp yourself out at every turn, you will enjoy the game a lot more and maybe even improve your actual skills rather than relying on over-bloated equipment, because at the moment, it sounds a lot more like you just enjoy rolling pubs without expending any brainpower, which might very well be entertaining for you personally, but where's the upshot for anyone else? Stop being so selfish. |
