I run proto suits because the number of slots allows me to make more creative builds, the number slots you lose going from proto to adv sucks. They really need to normalize the number of slots on each suit... i mean what happens when we get the next tier of suits... will cal logis have like 7 highs and 5 lows?
It would also help pubstomping by reducing the std - pro power gap and would also help with people who have a certain type of build they would love to have an adv version of but can't because they are so slot limited on those suits vs. proto.
Also... I run all proto all the time... and I generally stay right around 100 million isk... sometimes higher sometimes lower but I generally break even or go positive week to week, depends on how many PC games I play. |

this is how I look at it.
I play 150 games a week or so. at the end of this period of time I will likely have 65 games with zero deaths, and 60 or so games with 1 death.
my fit currently weighs in at 96k.
giving me a net profit of about 20 mil, let's say the rest of my games are loses I still will likely break out even in the end.
give us the gear to spend millions of isk on those fits, and you'll see people start to go broke.
Start selling officer gear at 1 mil a pop... that isk will disappear quick lol. |

To OP, I always try to make sure to run a profitable game. even if it is only a 10k profit, If I see myself about to redline my cost vs profit I go with 100% free suits for rest of game. As for PC , they make so much money when not being attacked and having lots of members funding PC that they can proto all day in PC without a sweat
Very few members generally see any of the isk generated from clone sales in PC... just fyi.
For most, participating in PC puts you at a net loss most games... I know it does for me. |

I don't mean the pub stomping only guys, the guys who actually do the battling for PC. I know I wouldn't be doing any of the battling if I didn't egt a piece of the action. As far as I knew most corps funded thier A-teams for corporate wars.
If your not getting a slice of the pie from your PC matches( or atleast corp donations for PC matches), why do you even do it?
The payout at the end of the game covers most of the loss, I make up the rest of it through profit from pub matches.
This game isn't about hoarding isk, its about having fun. PC matches are the most action packed and memorable games i'll probably ever have from Dust.
Why do I do it? Cause its FUN!  |
