Sometimes I'm using the Assault Rifle at close-mid range and if I'm not burst-firing, timing my shots carefuly, I can't hit ****. But, if a player sees me from a mile away, I'm already limping away in whatever direction to avoid certain death. And how am I supposed to get SP in this game? After I've spent my initial amount, skills as low as L2 cost over 30k, which is what I make in 15+ games. Seriously, at best, I get 7k in a REALLY good match. 2-4k in an ok match and 2k in a poor match, which is my usual experience. I'm no noob, but I am certainly not used to these shoddy gameplay and overly complicated mechanics. And don't even tell me to look for a Wiki for information, because when a First Person Shooter requires you to go check out guide to understand something as simple as a marketplace, something is very, very wrong.

Now, I expect 1 out of 2 responses:

A) "Oh, this is too sophisticated for you CoD types"

B) " The world of EVE is a realistic one-blah, blah, blah"

Im thinking this game is not for you. This is a thinking mans shooter. I agree with the controler issue though but that apprently is getting fixed

Much appreciation to the many people who held their nuts and actually gave me constructive criticism rather than indulge themselves in hipocrisy, letting me know what a huge noob I am and how they're always nonchalant about everything. Thanks. I'll be taking my sweet time to level up what I can, but seriously, 2k-ish SP is what I usually get in an Ambush match. Not sure about the Domination-type mode, becaus we always lose, but that's my average SP-gain. anything higher is just me on a lucky roll. Also, is there a way to not use the default spawn point that places me infront of an enemy's crosshairs, killing me before I have a chance to turn around? Also, is it me or is Melee utterly useless? And how do you use the Nova Knife? I charged the damn thing, hit him with it and even though I started to just melee him, he managed to turn around and shoot me dead. Also, my 6 shooter and 3-mag Sniper Rifle are not 7 and 5 respectively. What happened? PS: Btw, will the game cost anything when it officialy releases?

Tricked ya it was neither of those replies! You're exactly the same as all of the people that make similar threads " I'm not a noob it must be the games fault that I suck" How to get sp? Play the ******* game is a good start, and stop being impatient, you expect to max out everything in a couple do days. TL;DR paragraphs help. Not my damn fault you have the attention span of a mosquito.

But when people come in and say it has to be like this and its too complex then well they just want the game to be built their way and dont give a **** about what other people want. No, I'm complaining because I am frustrated. I'm not asking for anyone to change the game. This is just how I voice my opinion after failing games with no end. And to a certain user saying I came off as a prick, it's because I am a prick, but like I said, I'm also frustrated and new. I checked the tutorials for skills, the marketplace and the game modes, but nothing explained in full detail.

They're all red and in zeros and I can't restock them. What happened? /Edit, nvm. Why do fittings get exhausted?

They're all red and in zeros and I can't restock them. What happened? If you have an invalid fitting then you have ran out of something or youre using up too much cpu or pg.You only have to run out of one thing for a fitting to become invalid (grenade, shield regulator, dropsuit etc, unless its bpo) And going by your op it sounds like you're doing more than punching the keys, it sounds like you're ready to kill you're neighbors dog in frustration lol I have to correct that and add some thank you notes.
