any ideas on a solution? How do you propose they fix this?

Respec option
Really dumb since other mmo offer one and this is also a fps.Fps with no respec very stupid.

That and the fact that the current skill tree takes years to complete

And the skill tree isn't even done yet!

Got to the root cause: eliminate time-in-match based passive sp accumulation. Find a less destructive way to take care of the weaker/newer players.

The playerbase never asked for those passive rewards, and they are a cancer that is distorting the gameplay.

ThatGÇÖs the point. You are never supposed to be able to skill into everything, but there are always plenty of things you can skill into. This allows new players to become competitive fairly quickly by specializing, while vets will be able to be more versatile. It still works in EVE where some players have been skilling up for 10 years.

i disagree. one of the reasons i like dust is that your decisions have impact and are meaningful. if you make a mistake, so be it.

Wrong.

Dust's biggest current issues in order:

1. Too big maps for the feeble amount of 16 vs 16 players.

2. OP nades.

3. Lack of trust from community due to CCPs shady marketing and business ethics, borderlining being illegal.

SP's are the most valued thing in this game.

Fix this and DUST514 becomes the game it should be.

Well said!

Choices have consequences, live with them. If you spec into something OP, expect it to be nerfed later. No SP are wasted, they all improve your character in some way or allow them access to different equipment.


...As for what this game needs. It desperately needs a way to test things before they're deployed. Check my sig for a thread on how that can be done.

1.is what happens with nerf and no respec (smaller playerbase)

2. Nades are supposed to be strong (problem is spamming)

3.That's business(go to any game forum and players say the same thing)

Sorry but wrong.Your screwing over an entire playerbase because of this. Lets us card games a an example: there's two types of players
1.The player thats good at playing decks
2.The player thats good at making decks

Dust
1.player good that good at playing the build
2.player good at making a build
Player 2 in dust gets screwed. How is player two going to test a build and see which one he likes without respec.

Choices have consequences you say,well those choices got taken away.If something was op that was their choice to spec,nerf wasn't.No point in testing something before its deployed if you need to max it out to see the real benifits

Respecs are dumb in most games.

You're supposed to be "developing" a character in an RPG.

What is the point of "development" if you can just snap your fingers and ask for a redo?

"Making" decks as in cheating? How do you "make" a deck in a card game? You play the hand you're dealt. That's a weird analogy.

You can actually test a lot of builds right from the beginning. I have an alt that has the lowest possible level in a lot of different equipment. At 700k SP, I'm still having fun, be it with a plasma cannon, mass driver, assault rifle, whatever. There's only a handful of equipment you can't get militia, and the SP required to get the lowest level equipment isn't really that much. Are you suggesting you need to try the highest level of everything to decide whether it's worth doing?

how a game like this work.

u are supposed to progress in your skills over time.(yes but skills useless after nerf time lost)

u rnt supposed to jump from being an extremely good combat player to extremely good logi.(how would you find out if you like logi better)

u have to get better through time..(getting better has nothing to do with respec )
good reason to oppose respecs.(very bad reason)

those that when into every thing a little will slowly get to better equipment and unlock more through time.(yes and in time they become useless or something better comes)

thats the reason no respec needs to be done.(the reason why we need respec)

if u fully specced into one thing and it gets nerfed.
than that means you will have to try something new.(in other words throw you sp out and start from scratch)


this isnt your average cod or bf game. this is dust 514.(Correct a cone soldier with they ability to make new choices.this is AA AR514 with dlc nade parade.
