Seriously, can you draw it? (Or get an image with something that looks like it).
It may be also possible to put a negative score for opposed race and positive score for aligned race however that maybe getting to complicated but open to thoughts on this.
(EVE analogy) If i got this right, if i decided to use a drone as a primary system i would get bonus to train Gallente skills, but would get penalty to train Caldari ones like Caldari cruiser?

Dust 514 and Legion are supposed to be lower barriers of entry to the eve universe and with the setting of a shooter environment the 5 node system doesn't work for us at all as it tries to force every node to be worth something.
Not wanting to be a doomsdayer whiny *****, but if Z kills CHOICE (no matter what progression system, tree, role, whatever) than its just call of space warfield 2048, and the market its full of those for CCP investing resources in it.
Or is this whole thing a way to presente such a crappy option that players will be happy without an FPS and dust can die once and for all with the player base consent? |

[Inside CCP HQ]
Hey guys, i-¦ve got an idea!
Let-¦s scrap Dut 514 because it-¦s a big failure. 4k players is not commercially viable, so let-¦s try a fresh approach.
Product we have now? [Points do Dust powerpoint] TRASH [Powerpoint gif of Dust to recycle bin]
Let-¦s scrap EVERYTHING we have and make a whole new game. All the feedback trough the years? Crap. If it were useful, we would have 1m players.
Groudbreaking skill system with full customization, that we emulated poorly from EVE Online and only needed a few tweaks, and even like this is what distincts our product in the market from other games? TRASH. [Powerpoint of skill tree to recycle bin]
We have to try something new, and something right. [Powerpoint of a big stack of green $]
THAT-¦S the public we want. [Point to stereotype of fat kid with a headset on the couch holding a credit card and a mother screaming behind him].
Casual, for fun, money spending younglings that don-¦t know basic math and don-¦t want too mch complexity. Nor too litlle. They don-¦t want to think actually, and we-¦ll provide them just that.
What are the games that make $$ ? Diablo III, WoW, GTA V. Do they have to worry about thinking too much? NO [owerpoint of a person with a headache]
We have the IP for New Eden, so let-¦s bring a system that works for medieval fantasy, and transport it to a futuristic sci-fi! Its a sure deal, for they definetly don-¦t have futuristic skin packs and weaons to buy in Diablo nor Wow!!! [powerpoint of borat great success]
Use the mechanics from a different company, to make a whole new game, on a genre that we know little about, using the money from the other game of the franchise, to gather a public that doesn-¦t like or other game while alienating part of the public we already have, in a saturated market, removing our only differential, but all this for PC!!!!
Think bold my friends! How can this go wrong? [Powerpoint of **** yeah!]

There is no prerequisire IRL unlike your gamey, artificial, transparent, immersion-breaking system.
Then go fly an F-18 and land it on a carrier; In real life without prior knowledge. Here Ill even give you the keys after you take a jet exhaust sample.
If you know how to fly a MIG, it-¦s better than knowing how to fly a 747, that it-¦s way better than knowing how to play a mono-engine, tt it-¦s better than being an expert in flight simulator.
Pre-reqs are important, no doubt about it. It-¦s not because i know how to pilot a tank that i know how to do the same with an aircraft.
But cmon, if i have training in F-18 combat simulators i-¦ll have some knowledge of the working of a MIG, a GRIPEN and a 474 |

Tiercide has been under discussion since 2011.
What amuzes me is that a lot of the dicussions we-¦re having here, were alrady discussed during the beta, were not implemented, and now instead of going with the feedback, they decide a while different way.
At least present the proposed way in a manner we can give feedback instead of conjecturing and go in circles.
Every skill should give a bonus to something
Every LvL 3 should unlock something bigger
Those who specialize in Lvl 5 are trading time for efficiency, and instead of using 4 weapons use a really good one.
