Seems dedicated infantry don't want tankers to be fully effective when 1.7 comes, thus why so many are against a respec. Can't keep the status quo of all infantry all the time if you have people with decent tanks rolling around. So, infantry will deny us filling out our role's trees again, and force us to have to grind for many months trying to get any kind of decent tank.

I see how it is.

I planned for the vehicle tree, i worked it out how much SP it would take for me to spec it out, i planned ahead

Once i specced out my vehicle tree i started planning for the pilot suits, they never arrived but i managed to save up 8mil SP

No more vehicles were arriving and the vehicle patch was way off in the future, could have been a year maybe more so i spent my SP on a secondary role

Now CCP has changed the amount of SP needed to be a vehicle specialist by a factor of 3, the amount i have now will not cover what i need in 1.7

I need my SP out of infantry to be even close to what i can do now in 1.7

I planned ahead and finished the vehicle tree, now CCP has changed the SP amount so its more of a sink so i now need even more SP to spec out in the vehicle tree

I made my choices, i planned it out and finished the vehicle tree which made me competitve in PC, im happy with my SP in where they are, but between vehicles and infantry i want to go full vehicles and the amount of SP needed in 1.7 has gone up by a factor of 3

In 1.6 i had access to every mod and vehicle (not lolenforcers)

Now i need to put every SP i have into vehicles because they changed it all around and increased the amount needed

But what if your plan was changed by a nerf?

I don't see why you would still want to tank... they are just changing the numbers.... believe it or not they are the same as they were before, just removing mods and changing the cooldown time from 10 to 30. seriously do the numbers man, they are just masking everything

Exept the partial respec screws more people over than the full respec. It's illogical.

THIS!

They (the devs) said respec would happen and then changed it to partial only. They (the devs) only provided partial tools when game was implemented. So this is what happens:

Guy A wants to spec into Amarr only:
Amarr Assault Suit, check
Amarr Sidearm, check (scrambler pistol)
Amarr Rifle, check (scrambler rifle)
Good to go!

Guy wanting to spec into Minmatar only:
Minmatar Assault Suit, check
Minmatar Sidearm, check (even though Flaylock says it's Minmatar, it's actually the SMG so likely to get confused and get wrong one)
Minmatar Rifle... um, nothing available... What to do? Well AR is a projectile weapon right? so use that? WTF?

So WTF, how is this one simple situation supposed to be balance? It gets a whole lot worse and lopsided and screwwed up if you apply it to heavy suits (only Amarr available duh) and heavy weapons or with vehicles (only Galente and Caldari available wtf?).

So what happens to all the players that wanted to stay and specialize into only one race's stuff? They just get screwed over and have to waste all that time and SP?
