I'm one of a seemingly minority of players completely content with my current spec - i.e. I don't want a suit or weapon that has yet to be released. (that's not to say that I'm happy with the way these things work entirely but that's a different topic)
Lots of other people out there have been waiting patiently for new weapons and suits or vehicles, which has presumably been keeping them playing the game, looking forward to the new goodies. My point is that without any such 'hardware' to look forward to, what can people like myself be excited for in the future and how much longer am I going to have to wait?
Essentially, I'm just trying to help people realise that gameplay is more than just new 'content'.

Save your SP for stuff coming out in 1.7 or take a break?

Already in a leadership position in a corp with friends I've been running with since closed beta - I'm good in that regards ta.

You seem to misunderstand, somehow - I don't want anything coming out in 1.7, nor am I waiting on a missing suit or vehicle variant. I'm not saying I'm bored (I am but that's not what this thread is about); I'm just trying to find more in this game for people who are happy with their spec and no longer care much about skilling up or across. What's going to keep me playing? (I don't want to take a break)

There needs to be more to the game than earning SP. SP should be a means to an end, not an end in itself.
PC and FW are supposed to be delivering that, but right now they don't seem to be. I think the new FW system, where we will be able to properly choose sides, may help a lot. Not sure what to do about PC.

That's when you try out a something new to mix things up a bit. I love logistics, but I'm going for assault because it gets boring after a while since we don't have any new equipment or won't be getting any for quite a while. Assuming CCP isn't sitting on a huge ass reveal to justify why they're so tight lipped about the 1.7 update.

fighting against more diversified opponents, means new tactics must be used
FW and PVE meta games
corp v corp matches
new content which your mind has not even conceived of yet

perhaps not wanting to take a break will keep you playing. |

Grab another role? What will you do if the enemy team consists ENTIRELY of counters to your playstyle?
Eg: gallente assault with duvolle meets logi with mass driver/active scanner.
He knows at ALL times where you are, and has a weapon designed against your tanking type.
You could stay within racial lines and pick up a scout, allowing for the dodging of scans, or you could spread vertically, gaining use of say, an amarr logi.
This would allow you to keep your SP put into gallentes' armor modules in good use, but you will also have 200 shield base to stave off mass drivers.
As an additional alternative, if you find your squads are short on dropship pilots, you could nab a Grimsnes, with 1 poly plate, eff. Rep, f84scanner, afterburner, and a carapice or energized plating.
"I've got my one setup so i've finished the game" is like playing minecraft, and then quitting it entirely because you found a diamond.

Variety is lacking here. But if you aren't interested in trying anything new, who is to blame? Just because you are satisfied doesn't mean there is nothing interesting coming down the line. Ideally, new weapons will enforce different playstyles. (you haven't stated yours)
I can see maybe snipers getting maxed out fairly early, but those of us who interact closely with enemies should be attentive toward all new gear, since any one new item could be a game changer( read: breaker). Remember when Flaylocks were new? |

My plan is to train into as many things within one race so that I can handle as many situations as possible with one mercenary. I'll add in technologies from the other races as necessary to fill in the gaps. I'm at a decent point with the currently available selection. I have a very strong Minmatar Logistics setup with a variety of options. My scout is getting there but still needs work on biotics and profile. When the Minmatar Heavy comes out I'll start working on that as well.
Then there are the vehicles...
Once I've maxed out the Minmatar, including vehicles, I'll start picking from the other races where they compliment my Minmatar fittings.
I understand your point about enjoying the game to just play the game but I need a plan to be working towards.

Same situation, I have proto Amarr Assault and Logi, along with proto scrambler rifles and scrambler pistols...all I'm waiting for is Amarr scout.

Im loving the look of the rail rifle in the new patch could be fun, but to keep things intresing I try and use a variety of weapons cos sticking with the same thing is jus boring, my norm is a sniper so to spice things up I run with nova knives or shotgun or the smg and nades.
Enjoy my logi love juice
