A respec is a double edged sword for CCP. If they do not give us one (which the x3sp event, and lack of confirmations would lead us to believe) then 1.8 had better have a flawless launch. With speculations (not much confirmed) of complete overhauls of suits, skills, and even modules (ex: dmg mods) they are changing the foundations that a lot of us built our suits around. You change the suit, you drastically alter our playstyle, our loadout, and ultimately our efficiency on the battlefield. No respec, I doubt people stick around to deal with the turmoil of a buggy launch. Think its any coincidence that SiSi "leaked" info right in the heart of the tank QQ, after 2 weeks of no Dev Tags and numbers dropping off? Me neither.
However, if CCP does offer a respec, then 1.8 can afford to be a less than spectacular launch. People will be so happy with their unallocated SP they will be more willing to put up with 3 weeks of bugs and broken suit bonuses and armor reps not working and what not.
And anyone that thinks FoTM is going to be any more of a problem than usual, I disagree. Anyone dumb enough to go FOTM after 1.7 deserves the isk sink. It will take at least a week for 85% of this population to figure out what the FOTM is anyways, and my guess is only about 30% have enough SP to 'waste' into it. And not that many make it through the first week without allocating all of their SP. |

Becquse player frustration drives people to buy aurm for skill bosters and low skill requirment suits and weapons, but i have said that and im being good.
CCP could always try making money off novilty items such as perminate cammos, corp logo shoulder pads, and helmet variations, then they wouldnt have to worry about skill boster sails because i would by my entire corp a awsome cammo so we would look uniform. |

Except that everyone knows that cars depreciate. It is a known and expected downside of vehicle ownership that deals with resale value of a used item; not the item itself. Cars don't - suddenly - lose performance or change their abilities. And if they do - funnily enough - we call them broken. but eveyone knows suits will change skills based on CCPs balancing whims
This is incorrect.
Everyone assumes suits / weapons / vehicles / equipment etc will be strengthened, weakened or changed to keep balance but those changes are to be in line with the stated (read description) role of said equipment.
You are also assuming that everyone that played, plays and will play the game loves and is immersed in EVE and comes on this forum to stay up to date.

The active scanner equipment says that the feedback of the scan will light the user up on the radar the same as the people who where just scanned, but unfortunatly that isent acurate. Also I dont get your argument on this case at all, what item in the game is changing drasticaly from its description? Is it the amarr logi whos getting an uplink bonus? because that is their racial equipment and who better to get an equipment bonus than the logi.
Also to anyone who dosent keep up to date on the forums, will probialy be happy for any additions to the game, respecs or not. You know what they say about blissful ignorance |

Blissful ignorance or just drop it entirely because they cant be bothered anymore.
Same thing goes with your assumption that this will force people to buy AUR. Frustration and confusion probably turned off more people than spurring them to stick around and spend money.

But as a buisness they need to make money, i never said this was the best way to make money, but it IS how they have set themseves up to make it. I also said that they should expand into selling acessorys for aurm, and that I would buy some myself. |

"bar any reimbursals for skill tree changes." read his post again, the entire tank skill tree was reworked, hard to keep the SP for a skill that dosent exist anymore. |

Well they have set their model up like this. They must know only a certain type of person will continue to spend just to have more or another will spend to stay competitive because they have less time.
I dont see how a respec when a shift like this happens changes any of that. This isnt a weapon is buffed or one suit is brought into line occurrence. You may not see the changes as significant but some people's entire playstyle may have to change if they are stuck in an existing suit.
For the record I am against respecs but I am wholly in favour of them when changes like this happen. If your lore and model is based on living with decisions you have to make, then you cant change the events that made you make those decisions. You can but..... you lose all credibility.
On other avenues to gain revenue. All have said similar and we all wait on stuff to give CCP our money but their content pipe only seems to drip.

Not sure what that has to do with a respec.
And I only complain because of the redline, I actually enjoy flying through railgun fire because it's the mark of a good pilot to be able to survive in that **** while still getting work done. The redline is just a noob crutch that has no business existing, and is a primitive fix to a complex problem that doesn't actually fix anything.

They Deleted skills in the vehicle tree, then re structured it. They would have to go back into everyone's individual accounts and figure out how SP would be reallocated... it wouldn't make sense and isn't a basis of argument for everyone getting a respecialization...
This is a completely different situations... Reimbursal's have always been in the history of CCP.

I see a few peeps here saying eve is a game were you have to live with your choices and that's true. But this is dust a console game and ccp keep making the changes. I run a heavy have done ever since closed beta and I love it tho iv always wanted to run a mini heavy. If we had all the full suit/vehicle/weapon/maps/skills we could make the informed choice and live with it without fear of ccp changing the game. Don't get me wrong I hate respect but you can't blame players wanting to when we don't have a complete game. |

beside that, the SP gain in EVE is fully passive, you can increase the SP gain by a proper neural remap, get some implants, then stop playing for a month, play the latest next gen game in the meantime to experience something fresh and then get enough passive SP to get a new toy with decent amount of support skills in that new toy. try that in dust, you will only unluck a single proto weapon without the support skills and nothing else. |

due to all the bonus changes on the suits there must be a complete infantry respec.
I only skilled into Amarr for that heat reduction bonus which will now go to the commando.
With rifles like the RR out, theres no need for SCR,LR for me anymore.
Once upon a time those where the only long range weapons, but guess what, once upon a time was once upon a time.
The infantry game already has changed alot, and will change even more with 1.8, theres actually no reson NOT to give out a respec.
another one bites the Dust...
