New players need to understand that I have spent 3 months grinding so that I could have an advantage over them. They could have done the same, all they had to do was download the Beta, didn't feel like putting up with this "crappy" game? That's too damn bad, I did put up with, now prepare to get stomped.
TL:DR, "Fairness" can suck it. |

TL:DR, "Fairness" can suck it. Have fun playing with the like 12 other people who share the same elitist mindset as you for the next 2 years.
Elitist?
Elitist: The belief that certain persons or members of certain classes or groups deserve favored treatment by virtue of their perceived superiority, as in intellect, social status, or financial resources.
I'm not saying i'm better than new guys, but I have spent more time on this game than them, and my gear/stats should reflect that.
I have worked to earn my "OP" gear, not just be slightly better than starting character's gear, they didn't. Why are they entitled to a fair chance?
Me, losing the advantage that I worked for would be "unfair" to me. |

No, you guys are right. Lets just flatten the game even more. Gotta get rid of "tiers" and all that jazz. Skill progression? We won't be needing that anymore. H'mm, while we're at it... how about everyone just has 200 HP, and we get rid of anything that isn't an assault suit?
Hey how about we rename this CoD 514 while we're at it? Or maybe CoD: In Space!
No CCP, don't bother fixing matchmaking or coming up with "tiered" game modes, that's just a waste of time, all you have to do is bring everything back zero  |

And to all of you higher sp beta tester tuff guys strutting in this thread, are you kidding me? Tell me you're kidding me. Are you seriously going to continue to squad up and fight instant battles just so you can stomp new players? Are you really that pathetic? Did you really just spend the last three months grinding the beta just so you could win agains someone who may have never played the game before? Just sad. Really sad.
Haha, no, I was kidding. I grind so that I don't get stomped myself. I have no interest in stomping newbies, since that doesn't actually mean anything.
However, notice that I said "so I don't get stomped myself". I fully expect to be at a disadvantage when I go up against someone who's played longer/more than me and therefore has better gear. I think that's how it should be, and it adds to the uniqueness of the game. If I wanted to play another flat shooter, then I'd be playing CoD, BF or HF. What drew me to this game were was the unique combination of RPG and FPS elements, along with the skill progression system, and anything that further flattens the games is a step in the wrong direction IMHO. |
