But in reality that's not it works.

Having a large amount of experience in one class really helps you with everything else, a 2/10/2 will most likely be much more knowledgeable about how a ship, guns, and the game works in general, giving them a fairly substantial advantage over someone who might be just 2/2/2.

And, once again, levels are a very... hazy number in terms of skill. I mean, I was stuck at 5 pilot forever because I didn't really care about leveling and thus didn't take a lot of the ship/gun achivements, or didn't play on the maps requiring wins, so on and so forth.

SnipahShot:
Knowledge yes, ability no. I obviously got carried away with the 2/10/2 because no level 10 will have the other roles lower than 4.  I am talking about players who are new, like me and want to get their roles up to level 4 (goals and stuff).

Omniraptor:
You can just make a match with a password if you're that worried about experienced players beating you. If they don't know the password they can't play. In my opinion though getting beaten over and over is a good way to learn, and makes your eventual victory more satisfying.

Once again, levels are meaningless. The real goal is to have fun, not to increase a pointless number or earn a shiny hat.

i previously posted in the spectate issue now for this topic,


I don't think this will ever happen for a few reasons first off, it is not viable to have a level 15-15-1 join a novice game, novice is a status that is for people new to the game not the role or level they are,

engineers get to shoot fly and repair, so if you had a max level engineer they could jump in a novice game to say shoot and they have over 1000+ games already but because they never leveled gunner they are now allowed to play with newer players that would not be fun for anyone,

i do understand where you are coming from with the notion will if i want to try somthing i can't because of high level are in every lobby, but i don't see this as the case at all there are plenty of lower levels that do not use novice system in place, and just play standard lobbies and you can learn alot faster and alot more in depth from lobbies where people will just take a few minutes to explain once you know how to fly and the builds the rest is practice doesn't matter on level i have seen level 2 pilots be better than some level 5+ because it is practice in games not achievments,.


They are so alternatives you could ask a CA to be part of your crew am sure we are more than happy enough to help if we are online

Private matches-so just you and your friends can play and learn, or sandbox together

Ask in global for newer players to join your game or for some players to help you out,

You'd be surprised. For example, there's someone posting on the forums right now who is 15/1/13.

Look I get what you're saying, certainly, and don't disagree with the notion, but the feasibility for it to happen is just not there. Sooner or later you'll have to venture out of non-novice matches anyways, and I assure you, it's not just a steady stream of high level players everywhere :)
