It's not inept balancing, it's balancing for two different scenarios. You've got pubs where vehicles will never be balanced and you've got PC where even the most OP vehicles were countered.
I'm not aware of another FPS with so many different weapons and suits along with the array of fitting options. That isn't an easy balancing task. CCP should have given solo players ambush and the rest of the game should have been squad/team based. Balancing for team play would have been easier.
But I also think respecs should come more often. With quick hot fixes they can keep "FOTM" from being too strong.
But what is FOTM right now? Assaults, CR, Gal Scout, NK, Amarr Heavy, Burst HMG, ADS, or what?
In 2 years of playing you are at a point where the balancing doesn't affect you all that much. But I'd like to keep the newer players that are actually participating in matches around. If they drastically change a bunch of stuff give the trees of those suits/weapons/mods back and let propel skill back into it or something else.

I'm quite amused that you assume people to recognize and not spec into 'to-good-to-be-true'-stuff, while it's OK for CCP to release an update with 'to-good-to-be-true'-stuff? HELL, this game could even be better of thanks to "FOTM-chasers" so this game could be balanced more quickly. All real logic got thrown out of the window, just so the OP could cry and whine about "FOTM-users" whining and crying. This thread is stupid as ****.
The "you should have known it was OP" crowd are easily the dumbest you'll ever see in gaming.

I've got 12 ADV suits (3 of them proto), 8 of 10 LW are at least Prof 3, 2 HW at least Prof 3, and 4 SA Proto. My DS upgrades is maxed as well.
I can't be considered FOTM.
I've grinded and grinded and I'd rejoice if CCP reduced multipliers, gave respecs, or whatever else they'd need to do to get these matches to be competitive more often.
I'm not worried about setting "policies" for long term Legion SP and ISK criteria. I want the game I love to stay active and to be fun. I'll take that over hardcore "choices" or in match financial decisions all day. I can't believe at this stage people are still worried about the 7 year skill tree.

In fact, this is what I've dealt with for the two years I've played, though I never really moaned about it. But now its just getting to be too much. Nothing stays the same, always flip flopping. That's what pisses me off. Stop tinkering with the dropsuits.
I like that they try to get it right, but I don't get why people think it's so bad to give options to people when they do. If your game is thriving then I think you can be stingy about things. Hell in a lot of cases things vets warned about came true and even then people weren't offered respecs. It just created a LOT of animosity. When a mistake is made and it leads to an expectation of weeks of grinding to move to a competitive fit (not FOTM, but competitive) I think it compounds the animosity.
Dust isn't nearly as bad as people make it out to be, but the anger it's caused just created bad attitudes.
All for some I3ullshit thing about choices matter, when nearly half the dropsuits and weapons weren't even available.
