To say one was suppose to to predict the nerf is not being fair...why could it not have been a buff to all other suits? That is just as logical. In fact, did not the Dev's say they want to "change" the logis more one day and give bonus's to equipment uses and such...in your logic no one should spec into logis because we are told they will change. Do you believe a company really wants to honestly sell a product and have consumers buy it with explicit knowledge it will change?

Dust seems to be more accurately selling place holders that can be nerfed and buffed at anytime...screw the customer.

Wouldn't nerfs to classes in WoW be similar cases where people paid money to get **** and then they nerfed abilities or skills of the class? Whats the difference?

Wow, I wish I knew that. He doesn't play the game. He just spends a lot of time trying to give advice on how to make it better. Makes sense.

I ran Gallente right from uprising and had to deal with these insane shield dropsuits + Tac Rifles. Now, it feels damn good to be able to kill them easier. Maybe when CCP realizes they are about to go into the dirt, they'll let people respec with AUR to suck the last bit of money they can from everyone here. lol You're a good player, you can still be a killer with how it is. But what about weapons and modules, vehicles, second dropsuit, etc? Not everything was obvious. And why should we have to speculate about what will or won't be nerfed? It makes no sense.

Wouldn't nerfs to classes in WoW be similar cases where people paid money to get **** and then they nerfed abilities or skills of the class? Whats the difference? A much larger player base. But it honestly doesn't matter. It'll take a miracle for them to save this game at this point. I've spent another million SP on a Min. Assault suit and now CCP is looking at nerfing shields and buffing armor. My main suit is the calogi and I can still fit it fine, I just hate how slow it is (I don't use plates). You can't run 20 ft without a cardiac regulator and my biotics are maxed out. That's why I went min assault. Not only speed but the sentiment toward logis in general. I've spent so much SP toward being a logi, but I fear what will come as so many people cry after being killed by a logi. The console player base that they seek with their beliefs in progression is not currently in existence. Perhaps they could have created one, but the trend is not in their favor in regards to player retention. I have been this game's #1 fan for a long time, but the combination of a terrible new player experience and running off veteran players with nerfs and boredom isn't a recipe for success. Providing a way for someone to respec in some remotely reasonable way is good for the game. If its because of boredom in a role or mistakes made because of ignorance who cares? They should be jumping through their ass to keep people around. I'm done arguing about it though. It's a waste of time.

EDIT: If my decisions have permanence why do I get nerfed? You're suit was op and you had an unfair advantage, now you're suit is balanced and you are on the same playing field as everyone else, therefore you're sp is not wasted. PS: when selecting into logistics did you ever stop to think what logistics means? If you don't mind being slow the suit is still amazing, but because of uplink hunting fluxes are much more prevalent. It's been said a million times, fluxes instead of locus grenades would have dried so many tears for people. But then again people would rather cry for a nerf than adapt.

Genius Exactly. Start specializing in something new. You don't just rinse and reapply and get proto in something else without working for it. Quit being ******* lazy. I started specializing into something new. Now they are going to nerf it as well. Should I just shrug and start skilling into something else? Should I just skill everything up in order? In 5 or 6 years I'll be nerf proof.
