find a good corp dont run off once you get the hang of the game and get 3mil sp its gets easier trust me open beta was the pub stomp everyday all day you new guys got it easy

So... in 2 months the game will become bearable?

K/D is really irrelevant to me. I care more about W/L, and redline sounds very boring to me, like a copout. Why even play the game doing that?

I would go into uplinks but they are way out of the way in building the suit I want. First i need to get better shield extenders, enhanced ones don't cut it.

The game is hard to play when everyone your up against has a huge advantage over me in HP and damage output, aswell as versitility with all that equipment.

I'm useless once I left the academy. I don't have the skills to combat tanks, the high end grenades one shot me from 7.2 meters away (just being spammed in clusters), and I can't ever provide myself with nanohives. I left the academy with a 5 k/d but as sson as I was out, it almost like I'm worthless. Everyone weapon instant kills me whereas it takes at least a half a clip to kill them if not a full one. I'm running an assault and my suit has a total of 300 HP running the best defensive stuff I can get at my SP and thats half of what i'm seeing on enemy plays shields alone.

In theory this game is amazing, but it seems the developers took a page out of biowares failed plan for PvP in SWTOR and decided everyone from level 15-60 should bein in the same warzones. However at least in SWTOR you where "only" lacking abilities compared to your opponents as they boosted everyones stats, in Dust they don't even do that. They just pit fresh level 1 charecters up against level 60's and expect the game to thrive.

An experienced player can create a new character and finish number one on the leaderboard after the academy. Hell, I've done it and I'm not that good. Knowledge of the maps, and anticipating tactics can't be bought with AUR or training a skill. You just have to learn and adapt. The curve can be steep so keep at it. Squad up with experienced players and learn the ropes faster.

I still finish on the top quite often, the issue it the ridiculousness I have to pull off every fight. If i'm against people with 10mil + SP I feel I almost have no chance (I have less than a million), unless they are really really really bad at the game. Really it depends on the lobby I draw, if it's against people with lvl 5dropsuits, weapons, and modules then holy r@pe batman. Against teams with standard or advanced set-ups I usually am able to come out on top.

The academy should at least allow a person to get to 2-3 million SP before letting them out, as well as an optional and final Respec. That way people will have gotten the gist of the game and be able to actual specialize into a suit with some decent proficiency.

As a side note, keep striving little blueberry! The key is to try and form up squads to improve your life span. If you find yourself unable to kill targets in a particular game, try switching your role up to something a bit more defensive to help your team out. That way you can at least get some decent war points even if your team is sucking. Uplinks and nanite injectors are great for earning WP.

If you feel like you need some help from higher tier players, add me on PSN (Funkeewhale) and ill invite you and get you winning games. That goes for any newbros who feel like they're getting roughed up too much

I recommend a training corp to roll with there are quite a few of them the best known Dust University.

Why do people use such negative terms? Why can't we use something along the lines of "newer player" or "rookie"? Every-time I read someone using that term I either think they're not very old or their IQ is not that high... Nothing against you of course, I was just pointing something out.

I've played against them... i'll pass.

I don't blame you.

Learning is fun.

learning my 266 Shield 120 armor assault suit (less HP than proto scout suits) is vertually worthless against proto players. Can't even approach them. Strong gusts of wind kill me, whereas it seems impossible to kill a proto wearer unless they are standing perfectly still allowing for iron sight head shots.

If you are feeling down try to remember there are people who have it worse

A scout:
low pg/cpu
Less than 200 hp with out shield ext. or armor which use alot of cpu.
Become as big as a heavy while running and are not as fast as should be.
If we get looked at the wrong way were dead so...

Hope this made u apreciate youre 300 hp

I would suggest go ahead and start another character with passive SP left on this one.

Go through the academy with another character that also has passive SP, learn from your mistakes on your first pass through the academy and specialize your suit better.

Rinse and repeat you will have a few passive SP characters cooking while you are still playing and learning, next time also start recruiting players to squad with you consistently, that way you can all come out together.
