Learnings:
1. Dust is not a place for randoms and noobs this late into a build. If an experienced player like me can get destroyed so easily, noobs will be raped. This goes back to what I was saying about noob only zones or match making based on skills.
2. Match making is horribad. I have seen so many corps do a queue sync and team stack other randoms or corps. I mean seriously;- this is a beta. Your win loss ratios aint gonna matter
3. I took out a dude with a Duvolle with my militia AR. Me with almost 250 HP in total took down a dude with almost 500 HP in total and carrying a Duvolle. This was a straight up face to face one on one fight. I should have lost it but for some reason I won. My free equipment should not have been able to do this unless there was a tag team involved.
CCP needs to re-evaluate its match making system. Team stacking and queue syncing in pub matched are becoming common right now. If you want to play as a Corp thats what Corp matches are for.

Clarify some things:
- As a player with high SP main, why would you divide SP's? You know better than that (granted the LR needs only L1 and that's it)
- Did you tune the default fit at all? It is outright terrible without adding some militia modules (BPO's preferably). Granted new players should not be expected to do that.
Okay, on your points:
1) There are many things you can do with young character. But roaming solo really isn't one of those - and even then you still can have success in that from time to time.
When I created my vehicle alt from scratch it did fine (using only AR, ofc, as vehicles come in later). If using kdr as a measure, the scores were like 10/2 or 20/5. Warpoints were plentiful because of uplinks and revives. It STILL has AR L2, sharps L3 and weaponry L3 and that is ALL skills infantrywise.
2) True, match making is not working well. What Mr Belzeebub Santana above said is prolly true, too low player count for it to work properly.
3) Sorry to say but your mindset there is dead wrong and terrible as well. You are saying that if someone has better stuff he is automatically better and should never lose. FPS's are so situational.
This isn't eve where two drakes facing and grinding the one who has +5% better dps and tank wins. Even there there's plenty of situationality around which enables smart play. But that is definately stronger on shooters.
+ What I said on point 1 on young chars.
Finally, even though I'm not sure if you're referring 'team stacking as either playing with a full squad or having two squads on the same side, it's not right to tell people not to play with your friends. Player interaction brings so much richness to this game (and others too) and is also to my understanding a fundamental part of Dust.
But you're right, match making isn't currently working as it should. Also because of that the game tosses squads on the same side even without qsyncing, sometimes in outrageous ways. |
