Respect to CCP Z, he's in a tough spot trying to reinvent an unprofitable game. I respect trying to bring accessibility to the game and making an awesome new player experience. Unfortunately from what little we know of his proposals, it seems like the old player experience will be pretty painful.
Best PvE idea ever!

Are you saying you wouldn't express your opinions if it were the other way around, and something you really liked in DUST 514 was being replaced with an objectively worse system? If you are, I don't believe you.

Signed. It seems like he's bent on making DUST/Legion more MMORPG / WOW like. I hate MMORPGs. DUST's progression system is far from perfect, but this is the wrong direction.
Here are some views from EVE players: https://forums.eveonline.com/default.aspx?g=posts&t=344460
I want to see what is being planned on paper before it's even done. I reject what I have seen so far. If a respec is a solution in this new system it's broken from the start. And no, making the respec cost something is not a solution either. It should not be necessary.
If the skill progression system has to change at all the solution is not to make it more like an MMORPG. The solution is to make it less like one and more like an FPS. Get rid of skill progression all together. Allow anyone to use a weapon if they can pay for it. Make the cost of death the cost of the equipment. The better stuff you bring to battle the more risky it should be. For things like reloading make it where you get better at doing it as you keep doing it. |

Post your feedback there, and CCP Z will listen. Petitions don't accomplish much, but direct feedback does through reasonable and constructive discussion.
Here's the problem. We don't want an MMORPG. From CCP Z's plans, it seems like that is exactly what is happening. From what I've seen so far any complaints against this are being ignored. Anything that remotely seems to support this idea are being acknowledged.
We don't want an emotional attachment to our gear. We don't want epic gear to make us bubbly inside. We want strategy and hardship. If I want an edge I will pay my hard earned ISK for it. If I die and loose that gear it should hurt my (virtual) wallet. That is what makes DUST a success. If I am dying a lot with expensive gear and I choose to keep using it I should go broke. I should be driven to be as economical with my fittings as possible.
If you want to expand on DUST's strengths, expand on the economical aspects. Heck, get rid of skill progression all together. Allow me to use the most expensive gear that I can afford. If I die with this gear I should feel the weight of the loss. If you allow players to craft gear, allow the market to decide the price of that gear. If something is OP it will be expensive as well, and players will feel gratification from killing someone using expensive gear with their cheaper fittings. |
