CCP doesn't know how to make an FPS. Look at good old Quake. The balance was so good you never ever payed a single thought of it.
Balance is ffs the only thing disguised here, except for the pure deficiencies
Their solution to everything seems to be nerving it to oblivion. I've never played Eve, and heard that's the way there, but that doesn't work here.

...And you have no filtering system yet in place. I have had people I know IRL d/l this game, play for an hour, and delete it of their PS3 because they went 0/17 because they got stuck in a game with Proto wearing guys from the closed beta. I was using a 4mill SP Alt today and was getting my ass handed to me....
WTF!
Im agree on some things with you, but re you talking about opposite things.
Dust as EvE will be hard to the new people, but those who will "adapt" to the gamemode will prevail. To have a proper matchmaking or something where newcomer can go and practice or play with each other and learn the game and get the feel instead of facing off the veterans right of does not contradict the call for not dumbing the game down to oblivion.

Look where that game is 1 year on. This is actually a very good point. I come from warhawk and I played the Starhawk beta. They changed the flight controls to a more easy variant, "press X to dodge" was the drop for me, in Warhawk you actually had to dodge....  The "dumbing down" of many gameplay mechanics from Warhawk to Starhawk made me quit playing even before the end of the Beta. This.

I WHOLHEARTEDLY AGREE WITH [ORIGINAL THREAD]...
Here is the solution CCP... listen, ur about to learn something...
"brackets"
need me to repeat?
how about an EQUIPMENT LVL CAP battle mode...
MLT battle - rookie
STD battle - casual
ADV battle - difficult
PRO battle - nightmare
where n00bs can choose there poison
stop nerfing, and dumbing... segregate us... IT WILL GIVE PPL A REASON TO STRIVE TO BE BETTER... it WILL WORK!
I fully support this. This is one of the best ideas. Oh well, someone else have mentioned a similar thing when I think about it... But still needs to be highlighted.

It flopped hard... the Prototype guys complained they had no one to pwn in their prototype gear, and they migrated down the line to standard / militia gear rooms anyway.
If you're going to QQ about something that makes the game challenging, or 'caters to newer players' (Oh, look, and Oxy-moronic statement). Do your research first, and find out if they have done something to attempt to address the self same issue. Mayber there weren't enough players then? OrGǪ No, I don't really get it. Why not? Letting the newcomers getting stomped is not a sustainable solution.
Dunno where to put this sentence... If people can empty their clips into each other without dying, there wont be much need of tactics and skill because a few hits here and there doesn't make much of a difference.
ButGǪ! Dust has an advantage that can never be removed: the connection to Eve. Even if this game sucks really hard, it will still fill a role. It will not die like MAG and other MMOs, simply because it doesn't need to rely on it's own quality.
From a business view, this is more of an expansion to Eve, than a real standalone game. I don't think they intend to make much money on this game alone. The real bargain comes from the Eve players, a game with the tremendously cool feature to build alliances with dudes n dudettes in another game and gametype, and affect each other.
SoGǪ when all pros are gone and noone really cares about this, I will sneak in here and have some fun with the spaceraiders :)

Blue dots have actually made me give up on humanity as a whole. They are the most contemptuous lot of selfish, impractical, and idiotic miscreants I've ever come across.
The next time you see a blue dot doing something that just confounds you, think of this...it's likely that blue dot drives, holds a job, and heaven help us, will likely bred if they haven't already.
Terrifying....honestly terrifying.
