Sinboto Simmons SVER True Blood Unclaimed. 140	Posted - 2013.01.06 04:31:00 - [3] - Quote last I heard the player balancing is not on at the moment due to there not being enough players on at once may be wrong about that though

BattleCry1791 Pink Fluffy Bounty Hunterz RISE of LEGION 116	Posted - 2013.01.06 05:11:00 - [6] - Quote Sorry, but I get plenty of "no battle found messages", there's plenty playing. This week anyways. Last game was a perfect example. The opposing team was 4 DTA's, 2 Hellstrom (who did not die btw as they were in a tank the entire time, granted it was a militia Sica, but I'm pretty sure my team mates had little idea how to equip a Swarm launcher much less use one), and two Crimewave corp members. Meanwhile, my team had a contingent from the law offices of Screwit, Suckit, and Leaveit. By the end of the match I counted a whopping 12 snipers, most of the ones I saw personally on my way to the back to hack the rear objectives looked like they were in starter gear. I ended up taking lead on my team with an unspec'd AR, an unscpec'd Militia Scout suit, and an awesome 2/3 KD with a universe bending 600 WP. The reason why my K/D is so awesome is because how i kill ANYONE with that rig is beyond me. I would've scored more points (and so would the opposing team) if the damn tank crew didn't blown up everything I hacked. Idiots. This scenario is happening a lot. In fact, I haven't been on a winning team all night and I've been playing for about 3 hours. And I'm always making top 5 on the leaderboard at the end of the game by doing the same thing. Going negative, and hacking. And it's always the same thing. One or two uber buffed corps on the other team vs me and a million raging newbs (I know it's bad when we spawn in and I'm the ONLY one running for hacks at the beginning). I understand it's the beta and "Welcome to New Eden" but an attempt needs to be made to balance out the ingame pub rosters by any means necessary.
Vyzion Eyri The Southern Legion 155	Posted - 2013.01.06 05:14:00 - [7] - Quote I just got owned and I'm now quite butthurt. I will assist the OP in elaborating. Firstly, we must give all you kittens out there a basic understanding of the deeper meaning of the title phrase ingeniously chosen by the OP. There is no such thing as complete and utter garbage. It's contradictory, in a way. Everything has its use. Garbage, in fact, has use in that it creates areas that are disgusting and that no-one wants to go near, thereby making other areas void of garbage pleasant. Without the negative, there is no positive. So by saying the player balancing is complete and utter garbage, the OP is in fact saying The player balancing is something impossible, thereby indirectly commending CCP on their efforts attempting to truly balance so far. amirite?

You know what, you're right, if nothing else, everything can be used as a bad example. Your post above is an excellent support to your own theory.
Ulysses Knapse Nuevo Atlas Corporation 73	Posted - 2013.01.06 08:30:00 - [9] - Quote There is no such thing as player balancing. I hate when the enemy team is lucky enough to have two squads from elite mercenary corps and we get stuck with noob instant battlers as much as the next guy, but player balancing cannot and will not ever work for Dust. Ever.

Ever. Love the positive attitude. In particular when it is based on running a Beta with a very limited player base.

Kaathe Osmon Surveillance Caldari State 41	Posted - 2013.01.08 03:31:00 - [11] - Quote So... You play a couple games, lost most of them, don't have the awesome K/D you wanted, and you want to "balance" the player base? How does that work out? You want everyone to be easy targets? Better players? Smarter players? Don't want anymore newbs ruining your game? Is the game too hard? What's the real issue here? I don't see why you want to change something when you have no clear reason for changing it.
Daalzebul Del'Armgo D3LTA FORC3 Orion Empire 48	Posted - 2013.01.08 04:54:00 - [12] - Quote ummm join a corp? don't solo drop and end up with newbs? exploit the system and steam roll others that decide to solo drop battles all the time?
Crm234 Wraith Shadow Guards 166	Posted - 2013.01.08 05:35:00 - [13] - Quote Lifes all about SP KD and GPA welcome to the RPG my friend classified as a MMOFPS.
Jake Rockwe11 HavoK Core 2	Posted - 2013.01.08 05:57:00 - [14] - Quote Took ccp in 8 years eve to lean you can't balance people.. You can be a total bad ass and still get raped by a gatecamp..Take the advise of the D3lta guy two post back. Don't roll solo. This is a beta... They need the stats to see what elements can be tweaked and by how much. One thing they could do... Ears open ccp- solo battle; do not allow two of the same corp names on the same team in a match. This would make for good fun for noobs and off hours copies that want to kick it solo for a match or two. Remember.. Everyone is a noob.
Enji Elric Matari Combat Research and Manufacture Inc. Zombie Ninja Space Bears 176	Posted - 2013.01.08 05:58:00 - [15] - Quote There is no PLayer balancing we are in an Instant battle system... with the option of choosing what type of instant battle

I don't see why you want to change something when you have no clear reason for changing it. What kind of narcissistic asshat cares about their KDR in a Beta? My issue is that when there's a pubstomp in this game, unlike other games, everyone loses out. If there's no conflict, there's no ISK, no SP, and no WP being made by either side. And it's boring. We have variables that could place an index number on a player on the back end. The ability is there. That's all I'm saying.
W0R51N Sanmatar Kelkoons Minmatar Republic 15	Posted - 2013.01.08 10:00:00 - [18] - Quote I have played FPS since Quake 1 and i can say that this is painful being a noob in this game. I get owned in 3 hits repetitively all night long. I will lay into my opponent with 50 rounds and barely get through his shields it seems. Im hoping that when i skill up i wont feel this way. For now though as a low sp player its horrific. Something else ive noticed is all night tonight we won maybe 5 skirmish out of like 30+
Crm234 Wraith Shadow Guards 166	Posted - 2013.01.08 14:11:00 - [19] - Quote Its just Dust , CCP is designing a unbalanced FPS. They want players who have RPG grind for 2 months to be stronger , faster, and shoot farther. Die hard FPS players said there was a problem so many times and watched it fall on deaf ears, so they took off. This PS3 game focuses on making the player able to stack unbalance in the form of modules at the cost of graphics and decent player counts for a map of its size. Then they flood in a playerbase that doesnt understand open world vs matches. Its just the concept of dust and either you like or you dont.
Joocemann Planetary Response Organisation Test Friends Please Ignore 2	Posted - 2013.01.08 16:44:00 - [20] - Quote When this game is full throttle on it's intended purpose, it should be crazily unbalanced at times. The corporations hiring and the teams they hire should be organic and naturally emanating from the complex dynamic of the eve universe. Expecting balance would disrupt every understanding of what it means to earn something and would defeat strategy, skill, and planning by would~ be winners. Winners should win. Balancing would only coddle the weak and let them stay weak with no pressure to improve or put in extra effort.
