I have 3.4 mil SP. Im often in the top five on the leader board and have been the number one player on the winning team more than a few time. This game isn't impossible with low SP you just have to stop playing it like COD and actually learn to use cover/when to run away. And I'm sorry but until you get to about 8 mil you're going to have to run away a lot. |

If you can't deal with people who have been grinding since closed beta being better than you can I have your stuff?
Besides a grenade takes out any kind of suit just like that. |

Yeah, what grenade does 800 damage? You can't have my stuff, because I have deleted Dust. Maybe you simply don't play againt good players, and simply run away throwing grenades. Good luck tacking objectives in PC.
They don't need to do 800 damage because I've never seen anything short of a proto heavy that 400 won't severely harm.
I have no problem capping because I actually run with a squad instead of trying to solo proto suits like you. |

Good players can complain, bad players dont see whats wrong
I guess you should stick to the forums then, where you're clearly a great player. |

By the way, have you ever explored the possibility of getting decent all around rather than getting a tac duvolle and a caldari proto logi suit and then realizing you have no other skills?
Thats what I tried to do, I have an advanced assault fit and I pumped the rest of my SP into core skills. I still need about 3mil more SP to get where I want to go but I'm about halfway there and its working out pretty well for me.
Hey Twisted202 why don't you tell the forums what you actually put your wonderful 6 mil SP into? because I think you made a mistake by dumping all your SP into a specialized suit and if you screwed up and dumped your SP its your fault, not the games. |

Exactly. I do agree with people saying that theres a huge gap between new players with only half a mil SP and no corp to help them. They're are just going to get torn to shreds and leave/
But 6.6 million is more then enough to make you competitive and then some. |

Like I said with 6.6 SP spent smartly you should be able to rock most situations. I think you made a huge mistake by wasting 5mil to get into a spec proto suit instead of building up your core, weapon, and armor/shield skills |

Bones McGavins wrote:Yes, there is a new player issue for sure. Though I think that has more to do with the elite corp pub stomping and no matchmaking than skills and loadouts. A militia nade, militia AR still do a solid job of tearing apart most suits.
But a new player joining a game where an elite corp just stomps with 75 clones left at the end? Not fun. And the new guy has no idea that the reason it happened was because the other team consisted of two full squads, one from Imperfects, one from Pink Fluffy Bunnies.
Plus the lack of a super large playerbase means if they just play again right away they have a solid chance of playing with those same players... more stomps. Then they leave and never come back.
I think this is really less to do with the items in the game and more to due with the squad heavy nature of the game. Even in straight MLT gear I think a well organized squad would pubstomp a unorganized MLT squad. This is the main reason why I support creating a WP tier system because by the time you get to 50k WP you should have a pretty good handle on the nature of the game. |

Bones McGavins wrote:Or you could just have a "Training Gametype" with vastly reduced ISK payouts. Maybe slightly reduced SP as well (maybe not though). Payouts of 20K-50K instead of 200-500, good players would stay away, without the need for any sort of automatic filters. New players would see training, join it, and not even realize they are getting less ISK and/or SP at first.
Also, no stats would count for it. Eliminating the desire to stomp to pad stats.
That sounds like an awesome idea, it would also ask as the firing range to try out new fits that a lot of players are begging for. |
