problem is the game is discouraging new players to stay due to the "beta not in beta" syndrome. game has many problems and there is currently no way to reallocate SP to test out stuff. and dont tell me there are militia items, militia items are just a starting point that you grow out pretty fast after a few games and you cant really get a conclusion on militia items, they dont really represent the possible performance of certain weapon+suit combinations. just compare the PLC STD/ADV/PROTO advancement to e.g. MD or AR advancement, huge difference.

actually you are missing the point.

first of all, I never mentioned respecs but reallocation. this can be done in many ways with drawbacks where the player has to work for it which also can be, like you said, a journey and a form of character advancement. anything that allows new players to try out stuff and getting less penalized for it (or getting less penalized by the slow development) is a good thing for this game.

additionally EVE is not Dust. EVE is a MMORPG, Dust is (currently) a F2P console lobby shooter. your Dust+Eve arguments do not work out well, if you want to use this as argument then both games need to have the same option of character advancement and trading but they dont have it which automatically invalidates what you said. SP gain in EVE is purely passive. In EVE you can just create a new account, pay for it and get 2 characters with the stuff you want or you simply buy a character from another player. buying a new character does not really work out in dust yet, how are you going to raise a new character in dust with the current system, how are you gonna pay or transerf it? creating a new account is also very inefficient, the passive gain is too low to really benefit from it. this just does not work in Dust. additionally in EVE if you are unhappy, you can just relax for a month or two and do something else, then come back and use the SP on something new, in Dust you have to play otherwise you gain low amounts of SP. beside that, EVE does not suffer from bugs and lack of basic content.

and last the playercount at primetime is decreasing by ~500 per month because this game, as I said, suffers from still being beta. 500 players per month basically agree with me.

Wow 2 days... LOL. That really doesn't count TBH.

I've been playing the game for over a year, and I guessed I missed that small window (if true) with AV nades. Must have been on vacation or not spending my entire life scouring the forums looking for glitches that only lasted 48 hours . Tank scrub mentions it like it was some kind of huge deal, which obviously it was not. It would have been if it had lasted for weeks and everybody knew about it.

And I will continue to apply my wisdom on vehicle balance, thank you very much. Somebody has to keep you tank/vehicle scrubs in check. Cause if it was up to you guys, tanks would be unstoppable aside from 15 out of 16 players using superior tactics, perfectly converged teamwork and 100% proto AV to get rid of one militia tank.
