Militia and standard gear only matches seems like a great way. Sure some teams and players will likely always perform well but at least they won't have the gear advantage. I'd rather have a no squad game mode. This please. Gear is irrelevant when you have communication and greater amount of skill (good players) in the opposing team. Any top corp can easily pubstomp a bunch of randoms while using exile ARs. My std LAV can wreak a full team of random players using proto suits. Gear, K/D ratio, SP, it doesn't matter. Stomping will always exist if 6 man top corp squads are playing the game vs randoms. We only need this and more time in the academy, 10k WP is way too low to get out of the academy. -XOXO
Wait,
Let me make a point on how it is the gear that cause proto stomps, while coordination just makes things worse
I have a STD CalSalt with all standard with a EHP of 481
Assuming one can fit it, a PROTO CalSalt, with 4 comp extenders, 2 enhanced plates, and one repper, with an EHP of 768.
The is almost 2x the HP on a very unused suit, not counting skills
2x HP could roughly translate into 2x the TTK.
So, provided that Protostomper avoid some shots, and with the added DPS of a proto gun, means that someone running that suit could take on 2 STD CalSalts.
While having gear tiers of usage shouldn't be the only way to prevent the stomping, it needs to be implemented so 3+ STD players are needed to go head to head with a Proto player. |

Having militia and standard only gear matches will reduce the degree of stomping, perhaps to an acceptable amount, even thought it won't remove it completely.
Gear matchmaking over complicate things. What about people (like me) who run ADV suit with proto weapons? Proto suits with exile AR? It separates the player base way too much. Please stop suggesting gear matchmaking. -XOXO I agree there is no way that will work, how would the matchmaking system know if I'm going to use my prototype Sentinel suit and Boundless HMG, or a Gallente basic light frame with a standard mass driver?
It would lock this fits, as if you ran out of stock, for that battle.
And lower level gear would be permitted into a higher tiered match.
Otherwise fats issue would be valid |

Quit blameing PC and the players in it for your lack of skill. K? k. Instead of running your mouth why dont you start attacking districts and see how much money you lose and dont get back. Until then, I'm done with you.
Umm 1 of those 3 main powers is my alliance, pretty sure i know what im talking about. Just "lol". Nice way to change the subject but none of it was about how PC worked. Not even this thread was about how PC worked.
STFU and get back on topic.
That topic being protostomping.
While the iskies that corps get from holding districts does contribute to the prevalence of proto gear, it is needed in order to have any continual usage of proto in PC. |
