Noob hunting is one problem but it is less a problem than the mechanics of the game.
1. No one can effectivly repair vehicles with move crits because there is no way for empires to produce spare parts, This is really unbelivable when i first discovered the only way to get parts was to get salvalge or to buy vehicle movemtn parts that cost double and even triple the price of a new vehicles. This is simply unreal that a game so flawed one cannot buy replacemnt parts for vehicles because their is no CODE for players to manufacture the parts them selves. Fix the code so players CAN BUILD MOVE PARTS FOR VEHICLES!!!!!!!!!!!!........
2. skill ups, new players are seeing that even using DP for mechs and skilled pilots may be a very simply a waste or time, when a 2/2 mech pilot can skill up toa 5/5 in one day its easy to just leave the game. Why cannot DP purchased units be limited in thier skillups,say for example you buy a 2/2 pilot and they will never skill up beyond 2/2 except from losing a war or changing units.. you are paying REAL MONEY for skilled pilots, they can be killed and lose skill in wars. CHANGE THE CODE TO ALLOW FOR LIMITED SKILLUPS FOR DP PILOTS...
3. UBER empires..
No noob in thier right mind will ever leave the island after this paragraph.
Listen well, a while ago it was possible to DP purchase a mech and sell it back for cash, this allowed low level empires to build up quickly and have hundreds of millions in cash to fight. To better defend themselves many empires creating tent citiy empires with 100 to 300 zones and 100 to 300 pop in each zone. THis lead to many level 1, 2, 3, 4 and level 5 empires using this tactic to make it expensive to fight them. However as long as you had the ability to Dp buy a mech and sell it for cash then you could defend against them and even fight them..
But it is no longer possible to do this, the admins have remove the option of selling mechs for cash.
So what you have are a HUGE number of level 1,2,3,4,5 empires with 100 to 300 zones with 100 to 300 pop in each zone that a noobie leaving the island cannot fight but quickly become very nice targets for low level empires.
So why leave the island? i cant think of a reason to do so, at least there you have a little more of a level playing field, the primary reason empires want new players are to have them as fodder to protect thier higher level empires or as pilots when they take out thier level 10+ empires.........
