Please put me on the notification list to be emailed when the game no longer has overpowered snipers and the dropships that cost 3-10 matches to pay for and about 400SK total to fly cant be shot down by a noob spawn.
I dont mean this in a harsh way I love the game but its way way misbalanced.

Sniping is a skill not a weapon that has no kick and can be used well without much experience.
Dropships by the name alone says people spawn on it and deploy into the field.
Why would I pay 1.2mil ISK for a hull alone for something that does not give me points and can be destroyed by any bu abusing L33T player or any noob with a anti armor spawn?

I realize this is beta what I think you fail to realize is how many people are abusing bugs that are not reported.
I would list them however that would just give you an influx of new bug abusers and I am sure you know them.

I dont care about the boosters i bought I realize they will be gone in seven days.
Ill buy more later, after next update.

Thanks for a great game Im just sorry there are so many that seem to live to exploit your few weaknesses.

PS- The moment the balance is found I will be buying the merc pack and about 20 bucks more of credits. I do love this game and respect the fact that the more money into a game the better the game will be.

As for expensive dropships... you have to be very careful when deploying those. Your fittings and skill in handling the dropship will determine it's survivability, because trust me... Noob AV cannot down a well-fitted, standard-level dropship efficiently, and armor dropships can actually be used FOR combat. As it stands however, there is no WP reward to encourage people to be pilots. In the end, it's very important not to risk deploying something you can't afford to lose. As for snipers being overpowered, I'm sorry you feel that way. What exactly have you experienced that causes you to feel that way? Simply getting killed by one doesn't warrant them being overpowered, even if a noob is controlling the gun. Snipers don't control the outcome of matches, and the ones that CAN have a real impact on a match are good snipers that have tried quite hard to get proficient at it. In the end, winning a match is great, but it's more important to think about the actual importance of the pub match you're in. Are you there with squadmates? Lots of friendlies are evil little turds that would steal and wreck your precious dropship if given the opportunity. lol Winning is good, but calculate who you're with to determine if committing resources to that single pub match is worth it, and if the match is going really bad, and you're getting sniped jumping out your mcc or running out your base.... Maybe you should just "Leave Battle", because getting "redlined" generally means "game over". Both EVE and Dust teach their players balance; Know when to be selfish, and know when to commit everything for your team. It can't always be "all or nothing". Don't quit Dust. It's a beta, you are a volunteer tester first, and a player second at this point, and because you are a volunteer tester that has graciously put trust in CCP for a good game... they owe you a good game, and you owe them (and yourself) a little patience and helpful commentary to help make a great final product. Know when to walk away instead of being obsessed with the win. Especially, if you've sustained heavy monetary losses.
