I hope they can come up with a good matching system for people of different levels, (here comes a WOW referrence) like in wow battlegrounds. I would not want to be that lvl 15 going against a clan of 50's, that to me is not fun and will push the casual player aside. I agree with getting the better and stronger gear as you level up. But that can also inbalances the PVP matches without matching to levels.

There will always be someone on a server who just pwn you but at the same time with 5000 ppl there will be ppl that you just pwn. Someone will get super good at a tactic and in the right enviorment excell with certain weapon/tactic (FPS twitch based)
Other ppl will obviously be powerleveled where they rode someone elses coatail to max level and when they PvP its obvious they do not know there class. They will get farmed and it doesn't always take a leveled character to farm them, they can get farmed by lower levels because they don't under stand the enviorment or the tactics being used against them.
Then theres the human exhaustion factor- some kids stomps face all night he eventually will get tired, his reactions will slow then- BAM you just headshot him finally.
I come from planetside and yea level rank or whatever you want to call it play a big part but a lower rank toon can kickass still he just has to try harder and be more careful than a higher rank/level toon.
A big factor is how well you know your enviorment and how many times you've fought in that area. You can be level 1 and a level 50 might not understand the enviorment and you already know the fields of fire, where cover is or isn't, etc. And you will own the higher level because he is not as spatially aware as you becuase you have so much experience playing in say that alley way or whatever and you know what to already expect there when the higher level has no clue maybe the higher level never played in that spot before- you have an advantage then.
FPSMMO is so different than RPGMMO because of things like this allow lower levs to get some too. In RPGMMO its mostly all your level doing the killing for you and low levs stand no chance at all. FPSMMO low levs can get theres too.
Don't worry OP you'll do fine as long as you don't let dying bother you and thats how you get better- by learning from your deaths. What did i do wrong in that situation/enviorment and what should i do next time in that predicament if u ask yourself these questions each time you're skill will improve.
