Why can't you give everyone a respec so that they can spec into the new vehicle skill tree or go from their current weapons to the new weapons. You haven't done a respec in so long and I believe there are a lot of people (more than 75%) that want one, whether it's for the new vehicles, weapons or because of wasted skill points that they don't use or didn't mean to spec into.
I believe that there is absolutely no harm in a respec and practutcally every other skill tree based game has the option to respec at a price, why not this game?
Now if I have just misread somewhere or failed to read a blog mentioning a full respec I'm sorry for posting this.
ItGÇÖs because there are supposed to be GÇ£consequencesGÇ¥ for your decisions and thought processes. They are only doing the vehicles because there is a major overhaul. The weapons we have known about now for over a month, so that is plenty of time to save up all of your little SP in a little pink PIGGY bank for when they come out. Kind of like my 2.5m SP pillow I am sitting on anxiously waiting for my new toys.
Think before you spend. If it is spent, SOL. Welcome to New Eden

Only people who royally screwed the pooch are using them then.
Nope. I say if you donGÇÖt think before you spend, and with the teasers they have been giving us now (30+days) to start planning fro the new toys or changes, you get what you deserve.
Spend ISK, AUR, or SP, you have a choice to sit on it and let it accumulate, or you can let the burning sensation drive you into an idiotic frenzy of spending. Your choice, not CCPGÇÖs. SO suck it up and live with your decisions.
I thought long and hard, crunched the numbers and came to what I think is a rational path for me to travel. I will walk my path with determination and pride. That is because i created the image of myself and built it with my decisions.
I DID NOT chase down someone elseGÇÖs idea of what I could be, as shaped solely by the hands of another, and I refuse to be disappointed with my decisions because they were NOT me.
NO REPECS allowed unless there are MAJOR SKILL TREE STRUCTURAL CHANGES.
Some of you that never went through multiple respecs, like the closed beta crew, may come to appreciate this statement. If not, no sweat off my balls.
If these games are going to accomplish the goals of CCP (i.e., to make games more meaningful than real life), then one thing real life has that NO GAME TILL EVE had, was the reality that you never respect, you just accumulate and diversify. Respec for AUR is OP and P2W. And it only goes to benefit those that have no sense of direction because they have no sense of self.
But if you want to chase the FOTM, be my guest. Just donGÇÖt be surprised when CCP just collects your tears about RESPEC and uses them to power their Wormholes and Mining enterprises.
Want a RESPEC, you may want to look at the new COD. That may be to you liking a bit more.

I think the vast majority of vehicle users are going to go infantry and they are going to regret it. This is just a guess, but I think tanks are going to be beta beast mode with the nerfs to AV.
Hence the conundrum of RESPEC. Though you are able to recreate your sense of self, you also destroy what you have built. All this because people would rather chase a fantasy rather than be OK with who they know themselves to be.
All of those philosophy classes come in handy. SWEET!
But really. Those that go FOTM chasing, beware. Be responsible, and for sake of Amarr, think before you leap. Because if you donGÇÖt have the dampener, YOU WILL GO SPLAT!

Fuzzy McTickles wrote:I'm not an idiot when it comes to this game and I don't chase the FOTM I also hate COD with a burning passion, I came into this game knowing nothing and have accumulated my knowledge, now with my knowledge I can create myself in my own image but with almost 1.5mil skill points speced into things all over the place (like a first time New player) it just makes my journey a hell of a lot longer when I could have gear that fits my self built image. I'd rather not start a whole New clone since I have worked so hard to get to where I am (3.5mil sp) granted that's not much compared to other players but that Ill placed 1.5mil from when I started could be better spent fine tuning my heavy frame
Then keep that in mind with the ned 3.5m SP.
We all make retrospectively considered and evaluated decisions the present themselves as less than ideal.
Life is less than ideal, but we all seem to suck it up and move on. BUT HERE, OH NO!!!! Because it is a GÇ£game,GÇ¥ do-overs must be allowed!
That is NOT the case. Neither in life, and not here in New Eden.
Does it suck? YES! Does it make some of us tear up? ABOSFUKINGLUTELY!!! Angry, frustrated, perturbed????All of the above.
But the only reason that is happening is because there were expectations crawling about and filling your head with nonsense. Flush the toilet. Get ride of that crude an build up that is expectation and ego. Spend enough time here, it will be crushed and spat back at you.
Think of this as a lesson. A rough one, and one that you really had NO desire to trudge through, let alone learn. But experience it, you must, learning it is a choice. Do you continue to bask in the agony of discomfort, or do you rip the band aid off and suffer for only a instance in the grand scheme of reality and the universe.
I would much rather go the later route. It keeps my sanity and the moral flexibility necessary to survive in this world and the cage we have built for ourselves. Try it out. If you encounter something that you recognize as being able to instigate attachment in you, get rid of it. This is especially true with expectations. They are an unnecessary weight tied to your ankles, that will only make you sink no matter how hard you kick and fight.

This is a lie, What really happens is that you have to hop over SP walls only for CCP to change effectiveness of the item you skilled into, making it near useless. Then you're forced to play this mediocre game for another month or 2 to make up for the SP lost and pray that CCP doesn't touch what you skilled into. Chrome was where Dust had real customization, you could instantly skill into whatever you want and the SP wall didn't stop new and intermediate players from doing so.
QUIUT CRYING!
And in Chromosome, CCP was allowing, hell encouraging us to break this game. We did. And because we accomplished the goal set out for us, this is what we get.
GET OVER IT! I did, to an extent.
EDIT: Plus I feel that you may not have played in Chromosome all that much because there were a number of more atrocious issues to deal with than the skill tree and have 5X the amount of SP per match. ThatGÇÖs where you got your sense of a false normative standard. It wasnGÇÖt normal at all.
If anything, this is probably a bit more GÇ£normalGÇ¥ and actually holds a little bit better sense of equilibrium. That is not to say that this is any where near fixed, but it is evolving over time in how it looks to us, how we interact with it, and the affects it has upon our daily lives.
