You chose your medium suit BC of its flavor, or ts opness. The flavor isn't changing, and if you just wanna switch to the new form suit since its discovered, or the one the number crunchers are thinking will be MST beastly, well sorry, but don't think you should get a respec.
I'd agree with you here, except for if they change the slot layouts and racial bonuses on the Logistic and Assault suits. I picked my suit due to its bonuses and slot layout. I spent WEEKS of saving SP and crunching numbers to figure out the best suit for my play style. Not to mention I'm a hardcore Caldari loyalist and have always wanted to play as a scout. Why shouldn't I get the option to spec into my Caldari Scout suit now that its offered? Before this I was forced into only medium frames if I wanted to stick to my Caldari loyalty.
PS; Yes my character is Minmatar. Yes I made a mistake when I created my character. No I didn't realize it until quite a few weeks of grinding SP. Yes I am a moron. Yes CCP refuses to change it for me. No I will not sleep on that dirty rusty Minmatar slave bed.
Well I can understand this. Let me rephrase this a bit. I think only scouts and heavies should get immediate respec, due o their suit restrictions for so long, and so there there is enough players using the new suits to test and get feedback n them, and balance them as needed.
This isn't needed for the medium suits, as there is enough of a play base on most of them to test them and balance them. The issue I see is 10m+ sp players getting respec and dumping all their points into the fotm suits, and creating a game imbalance for 3 months or so, and limiting testing and balancing on the suit changes
So I say leave the medium suits go for now, to insure everyone doesn't just hop to the new form suits. Once all the new suits havebeen appropriately tested and balanced then iI think a global respec should be allowed. This will allow those who didn't run heavies/scouts BC of either pure racial motivation such as you, or they didn't like the flavor on the available selection, WITHOUT causing a game imbalance and limiting testing of the new suits/skills.
