There better be a character reset at Full Release if they expect to get any NEW players! This game is still in Beta and long away from full release and its already one of the most newbie unfriendly games i have seen in a while.
The gap between new players and Veterans is growing everyday and is directly affecting Battle victory where some games basically come down to which side has the most veteran players with Heavy Armor & Heavy Weapons.
A big issue i am seeing in a good number of games is when one side gets signifigantly ahead of the other side, Maxed out veterans on the losing side who don't need SP and ISK as much either stop playing or drop out of the game... ...which leaves only the newer players on the losing side who need all the SP & ISK they can get who are now forced to take on the dominating team whose veterans have ALL switched to Heavy Armor & Weapons... ...and NOW those newbies aren't even getting ANY kills because they are getting 1-shot killed the second they poke their head out.
Also, its going to be hard to hold the attention of New Players as the game is now when those newbies log in with their starter Assault builds and realize their assault rifles arent doing ANY Damage to the veteran players Heavy Armor! |

um...no the noobs won't have to get used to it! They can just stop playing and tell all their friends who haven't tried it yet NOT to play the game because its Bullshit!
I hear you Sloth, however... 1. Don't use Eve as an example as its well known as one of the most non-newbie friendly MMO's on the market. period. Every MMO/Game website that re-reviews/covers EVE mentions this early on and i have friends who are long time EVE Fanboys who warn me how brutal it is for new players coming in now.
2. You sound like you are saying that there is no reason for anyone to start new on full release since the beta is available now and i agree however as a responsible game company, CCP has to try and get new players upon Full release.
3.It's not individual disparity thats the issue so much but the makeup of the entire team. Like i said, i have seen many pub game come down solely to which side had more veterans with Heavy Armor winning and the side with more noobs like me losing! :)
4. A whole seperate issue in pub games is the number of people who quit playing or drop out of the game the minute their team starts losing. It is happening WAY too much and makes the game NO fun for the remaining players on the losing side. |

You are right about the Heavy issue and i give full credit to the noobs who grind away to get enough SP to get their gear the same as the vets. My problem is the grind to get their is grueling, painful, boring when you spend most of your game time in re-spawn screen, and SLOW AS ****! I just don't know if i have it in me to get there to be honest. The early game grind for SP is killing me and i am not having fun with it at all!
btw, thanks for taking my comments seriously and answering truthfully. I always expect to get trolled into oblivion the second i post on videogame forums lol! |
