The fact that there are FOTM chasers says something is off about the game in general. This is NOT a hardcore game, the tactical decisions are limited and the only true thing about this "game" is that it often time feels like work. Having the need for grinding does not make a game good, having decisions "matter" doesn't matter because it is a game. The FPS that this game is most like would be MAG and it seems to be dying just as fast. The FPS crowd does not want a grind game, and you do not gain new people by having a grind game. New guy comes in can now kill people with the change to AIM assist, but if he wants to try something new out he is looking at 2 weeks of grinding with the same set-up he wants to get away from....which is when you turn a game into a job.
We don't want scrubs like that anyway! This game isn't lacking numbers or anything....and I love how people call Aldin a scrub...Respecs allow people to experiment and increases the joy of the game. Dust differs from EVE a bit because the battles are here and now and you cannot do laundry....wait... I see, if we allow respecs we will diminish AFKers as well, but we don't really want to improve the game, we want to keep the idea that we are badass and this game makes decisions matter... |

I was with MAG the day beta started, I was with it for about 2.5-3 years, but their system was good because you could NOT get everything so how you allocated your skill points made more of a "decision matters" then what we have here in DUST. There is massive potential here, which is why I am still here, and my comp can't run PS2 very well, but when PS4 comes around it may mean that DUST dies, for me at least. Would a respec stop that from happening? perhaps not, but it would not damage the player base. I must say I enjoy this build the most, because it makes the people who shoot first matter, as well as scanners and communication play a larger role. |

And I would make the respec cost a % of your total earned SP, and the cost for Repecs would be WP, not ISK, perhaps AUR, because they need to make money. |
