Surprise surprise, I am able to do so and turn out a high profit.
Your point? |

Your point? well you must be 1 of the few because this is a common problem amongst the people i have talked to about it thats y i posted 
I'm a decent player, not that great.
I just make sure not to rush mindlessly into an enemy camp expecting to win.
I scout the area from afar, wait for my team mates to make a push and then use the knowledge I gathered to take down the area.
A few tips:
1.Don't go rushing in expecting to insta win
2.Wait for your team mates, you are not powerful enough to take down a whole team defending an area
3.Make sure to scout around the area. (Go to a high place and zoom in with an Assault rifle or something like that)
4.Don't go head to head with heavies, seriously Iv'e seen so many people do that and die horribly
-What you're supposed to do in this situation is to use your speed to your advantage, tear down his armor with bug bites, his shields regenrates much slower than assault and scout shields.
5.Don't run in the open without having some nearby cover, you're just asking for a sniper to pop you
6.If you're in the unlucky situation of having to deal with an area without scouting it, only reveal a part of yourself behind cover and look for enemies.
7.If you see a tank and you're alone, run, don't be a hero
8.Don't be afraid to deal with players with Prototype or Advanced gear, aim for the head and you should be dandy.
9.Try to talk in your mic to see if anyone else has one, if you're lucky and they do start working together.
10.If you see someone and he doesn't see you, take your time and aim for the head
11.Don't be afraid to mele, it saved me countless of times
12.Don't run into players with shotguns, if you see one, don't move backwards, turn around and run
13.Don't run straight to a sniper position, that's just asking to be killed, instead go from cover to cover
14.Hope you have good team mates
^
That's really the basic stuff.
You should always use the area to your advantage.
Also, don't forget old and proven tactics, they are your best friends. (Attack from above, flank, use darkness for cover, etc')

Are you one of the guys who consistently goes 0/8 or 2/7? Just because you can do something doesn't mean everyone can. FYI, I make considerable profit running 60k suits, so I'm not arguing for myself.
Being able to sell our salvage would offset a lot of this, but for the time being, since we can't, the rewards are pretty bad for the low-end players.
Standard gear doesn't cost too much per suit.
I had my share of being pwned to dust (pun intended) when I was playing in the middle of the night when I usualy play badly, and I still turn a profit because standard gear doesn't cost too much.
When you get better, use better gear - and not the opposite.
A bad player with Prototype gear is still bad. |

I wonder about ISK payments in the final release though. If it's coming out of nowhere from a NPC source like it is now, players are going to join forces and farm warpoints by taking turns hacking a installation or something.
NPC contracts in high sec, player contracts in low/null sec. |
