regardless of the game, but the fact a respect will help than it will harm is undeniable...
Am I a scrub because I tank?

Lol I used MLT tanks before 1.7 and wont touch them now.
Also my Nanite Injector says hi.
I'm also inclined to believe Aero on this one. Not only has he never yet been wrong on his predictions but I was a Medium Frame user since Chromo. The last thing I want to be now is a Medium Frame.

Ewwwww but okay. Having a Cubby Commando medic is always handy.

'Basic content' includes racial suits, vehicles, and weaponry, and excludes things like new weapons, modules, and new role bonused suits and vehicles. Handing out respecs for major changes goes against what CCP has done in EVE, and sets bad precedent.
In EVE, my Ethnic Relations skill let me have 20% of my total corp be a different race than myself. That was changed to Diplomatic Relations and made it cheaper per level for me to hire allies in wars, and race was no longer important for joining corps. The first was very useful, to me, the second was a waste of SP for me. CCP gave no refund.
When my Apocalypse became a Neuting Drone boat, I got no refund.
When CCP actually removed Learning skills, people got that SP back as a refund, not a respec.
Hey that neuting drone boat is a Godsent in PvP!

However, I'd wager the exact opposite would happen. Give people an infantry respec, and you'll start seeing more diverse battles in Dust than ever before! Give people the opportunity to skill into the core content the originally wanted to and just watch as we see people spread out into a bunch of different roles and suits.
FOTM was an issue before because there really wasn't much to choose from to begin with. And with past FOTMs we were able to see it coming a mile away. Can someone tell me what the FOTM in 1.8 will be? Everyone I ask says something different. it will be gallente scouts It will be Amarr Assault or Minmatar Assault. 11 round Mass Drivers... *shudders*
Doubt it. Gall Scout gets cloaking, can tank more EHP proportionately while having better biotic stats, a smaller frame, and the capacity to make use of equipment and light weapons.

But can you argue that its role now is completely different from it's role before Odyssey? It changed completely. It resembles nothing like what it used to except its name and model. Same thing applies to the infantry changes in DUST. You saying "my stuff is getting nerfed / changed / whatever" is NOT a valid reason for a respec or refund, full or partial. On the other hand, CCP saying "here's some of the basic content we've delayed for so long" could be a good reason for a respec. I'm against frequent respecs, however. I believe they set a bad precedent in the 'consequences matter' marketing thing that CCP does. Therefore, only a full and final respec should be given when all the racial basic content is released. Partly for that reason, releasing all the basic racial content should be CCP first priority.
I wholly agree with you. I simply would like one final chance one day when core content is released to make the informed choices I feel I should have been able to make.
12 months an not one Amarrian racial HAV variant was even developed to a meaningful level, nor would Wolfman when I caught him in a thread reveal more to me than a very, very cryptic reference to the Amarr HAV being made of platinum, or being that colour.
