I've played EVE for the past year or so, but didn't have a PS3 to give Dust another try. Well, I now do, and I've got 7.5m unallocated SP. I know it's not a ton, and I'm no noob when it comes to wasting SP (as I do in eve...), so is there anything that I SHOULD get up no matter what to 5?
I don't mind sinking all 7.5m into good support skills that help every pilot, I just want to make sure I don't mess up with it.
When you say pilot, do you mean you plan on operating vehicles such as tanks or dropships?
Or do you use the term pilot to describe your character? If so, in Dust we refer to ourselves as mercenaries.
But if you do plan on running vehicles, there is no skill that really is a must have, because it all depends on your planned fittings. If you do plan on running vehicles, talk to some vehicle experts on how to fit them and operate them. Unfortunately I do not know any experts that I can guarantee would want to help you.
If you just plan on running dropsuits though, follow what Meisterjager Jagermeister said, as those are the skills that any suit will benefit from.

I've been getting stomped on, which is expected, but people seem to 2 shot me from pretty far away using rail guns and I'm not seeing much of anything else.
You should be waiting until 1.8, just saying. So much is getting nerfed/added that it would be best to wait the couple weeks or however long it will take.
And when you say rails do you mean the Rail Rifle or Vehicle Railgun Turrets?

Also if you, or anyone else has a tip/training path for someone who likes doing objectives would you mind linking it?
I really don't care at all about K/D, but I enjoy winning and hacking sites and trying to help my team where I can.
I also enjoy blowing up the guys in vehicles that are camping spawn points :p
From what you have described, you sound like you would have fun with the minmatar scout post 1.8 with remotes. After 1.8 the minmatar is getting a bonus to hacking speed. You can place remotes on tanks and then blow them up that way. I am at school right now so I can't link you any guides but later today I will try to link you to a few guides that would help with this playstyle.

As for those links I said I would post up earlier;
Remote Explosives Guide, this guide is incredibly well written and teaches you how to be effective with remotes, which is what you will want to use if you want to blow up vehicles.
Scouting Guide, this is a guide for general scouting. If you plan on being a hacker-scout, then I would ignore the part where he says avoid hostile hackable installations, as hacking those is where you will help your team and get your points. On another note this guide is a tiny bit outdated and hopefully will get revamped when 1.8 comes out with all the changes to scouts.
Hopefully this helps.
