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.

On a side note, stop speccing into what everyone else is using cus it's so uber. Spec into what you think is cool and fun to use. The challenge in this game is winning with what's not popular. It was a challenge to use the MD in an armor tanked suit during the **** days of Uprising 1.1. Now, it's kind of lame. So I'm training for scrambler pistols and rifles. You better believe that I didn't scrap my current character and start over though. That's just stupid.

sick of having 5Mil SP wasted because my suit build got nerfed.

EDIT: If my decisions have permanence why do I get nerfed?

Indeed, but by cross-training I am loosing over 3mil SPs that I can use right now. It took me a long time to get to Proto Logic, and now I am restarting a new Alt. Merc.

Trials and errors is the only way you can get through DUST 514, no-one can tell you what is good or not, but by testing it yourself.
So I tried but I did not care for it.

Now I have a good load-out and enjoying the game again, but I had to restart all over again and leave behind almost 10mil SPs. Will take me months to get where I was.

No matter the reasons, I do not understand the "No" Respec policy.

Thank you.

One word.....IRRELEVANT!!!!!

To all of you that say that respecs are bad, do you have a reason or are you just stating your opinion? I see nothing wrong with respecs, with all the changes they are making to this game.

Crosstraining makes you immune to CCPs sporadic and random buffs and nerfs?

Wow, I wish I knew that.

It also lets you have many variations on the same task so you're always playing differently. I've crossed into a scout suit and two logistics suits and an assault suit. Now I have many roles on the battlefield depending on what is needed at the time.

Only people who can't realize the fact that no skill point is ever wasted in this game will continue to fail. Be innovative bro. Learn2Play.

Don't use what yooouuuu can't afford to loooooosssseeeeeeeeeee...

Can any one name a product available to a consumer that requires time and/or $ that can instantly change after the product is in the consumer's ownership? That after said change the majority of affected consumers requested no recourse?

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.

I remember when I got nerfed I could not really kill anything

I hardly call Dropship specialist and AR fatty "uber"

I only even went AR because the HMG was / is in such horrendous shape.

Yet another instance of CCP making my decisions for me through sad sad balance.

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.

That's less of a product of respecs and more of a product of CCP not knowing how to properly balance their FPS game.

If things were reasonably balanced and slowly iterated on, it wouldn't matter nearly as much.

Respecs or something like a respec is needed because it helps keep people from getting incredibly bored running the exact same thing every single game. No other modern FPS forces you to wait months on end to be reasonable in any given role. You can switch out, mix and match, and just go (in general).

In DUST, you're forced to wade through the same 5 matches for months to get anything "good", and you are rewarded with a little stat boost and the exact same gameplay you've been playing for months on end.

It's boring. That's the problem.

Letting people swap out their hard earned SP from time to time only hurts ego's.

Halo, one of the most popular games out there, doesn't have a respec system.
