I'd say this makes sense... even though I'm happy where my points are. I'd also like CCP to bring in a AURUM for respec feature which is limited to 2 per year or something like that. (People without aurum could get one free respec per year). This would prevent the people asking for respecs every balance/patch/hotfix/nerf/new feature is announced.

Live with your choices he says
Big ******* problem is that my choices were made some time ago, now CCP has turned the vehicle tree upside down and it now looks completely different

Which is why CCP won't do a respect again. Which is why they said choose wisely after uprising. That was it, to avoid situations like this.

Are they still tanks? Did you pick tanks?
That's your choice.

Live with u F*****G choice
They Nerf Guns u didn't here Infantry whining about re-space cuz the guns got NERF so shut up accept u decision in DUST /quote

I didn't hollar about nerfs like the Flaylock one because I was gonna use the Flaylock whether or not it was a good weapon anyways. Because it was Minmatar and that's what I wanted. But as we see now, the devs are still not sure on that one.

It isn't being turned upside down, stop trying to blow it out of proportion.
You picked a role, and you still have it. HTFU.
You don't hear scouts asking for respecs, you hear them asking for balances & new content.
The fact that some tankers don't do the same says to me that they really just wanted to roll about the battlefield with impunity.

CCP should have never caved into the first wave of "I want a respec." Now whenever something goes from strong to weak the whiners will want "just one more respec."
Respecs are a terrible idea. Once you spend SP it is gone. You train it you bought it, sorry no refund.

1. The Vehicle Refund isn't a respec. Because they are changing the Skills so drastically that CCP needs to let people re-do or stop using vehicles.
2. No respecs, period. For new players' sake. We need to have at least some mispent SP so we're not perfect exploitive killing machines destroying newberries even worse. You realize the Uprising respec is when and what caused the slaughter we see today.
3. Respecs are just a cover up for wanting to spec into something else without having to grind more SP."Mass Drivers got nerfed, so I want spec into Gallente tank and ARs"

This, a million times this. Asking for a respec whenever something happens seems just lazy to me. A skill-bonus changed, an item changed, the server was down for 10 minutes longer than usual, and people cry, beg, ask for a respec. Vehicle specialized Mercenaries get their SP from Vehicle skills refunded because nearly everything about vehicles gets changed, boom, people demand a respec. It's just getting lame.

I disagree entirely,

WHO ARE YOU, to dictate where I put my points after CCP as per usual GOT IT WRONG AGAIN AND NEED TO RESET THE SP.

If CCP changes the tree setup for vehicles ,do you think for one second people will have any confidence in the new layout over the old, NO. ! not for one second. I for one am glad that i'll be able to drop my MILLIONS wasted on vehicles back into infantry.

I've already calculated what I'm getting back and exactly where its going, including TWO PROTO weapons , 1 advanced racial suit and a few other skills too. :), I'll stick to using the BPO vehicles for as long as I can now until CCP removed them too.

Also pointed out by another on this thread, everyone skilled into vehicles get the SP back and will have the same options as everyone else so your argument doesn't stand, as YOU have a choice too.

The biggest problem I see here is that CCP already altered skills without a refund so why should vehicle users get a refund of changed skills where others had to live with the changes to their skills?

For skills that get removed the refund is obvious. I am against a full repec for anyone but CCP should be consistent regarding their SP refund policy...

i find it funny how people are always saying HTFU or NO MORE RESPECS!

do you realize that this game doesn't magically get money from free to play characters? and since this is free to play, there is nothing keeping people from leaving.

sure, nobody cares, but usually the people complaining are the people who spend money on this game, and when they are gone, then where will the profit come from in DUST 514?
