Don't start with this I'm not hostile bullshit. You just said welcome to New Eden, this is a go to statement of saying go **** yourself HTFU that is perpetuated here and in Eve. I don't really care if you aren't hostile I'm going to obviously be hostile because you are dismissive.

Here's the thing and its the truth. You're bad at this game if you think having unlocked multiple proto fits is not an advantage. If you spent 47 million sp and can only perform one role, I'm either going to call bullshit, or you haven't spent most of your sp. Believe it or not, as the game drags on and players get more sp more players are capable of fielding the best gear with higher passive buffs giving them an inherent advantage. You may approve of this and you may not, and either way I don't care as I have no real affinity for the success of Legion, I'm just trying to be realistic for CCP if they actually want it to succeed and to be honest with how tight lipped CCP has been about sp character transfers, I think they know they will have to reset as well or even restructure the sp system. What I don't like and is apart of what you have claimed in your posts that made me hostile, was that 4-5 million sp is all it takes to be competitive. I'm sorry no, if you think versatility in multiple proto roles isn't necessary when the battlefield is changing then you are non-competitve, which again is fine. But don't claim to understand things that you don't. The advantage of having millions upon millions of sp is that a player can fit 30 different proto kitted role changing fits that will hard counter other opponents. Because in an asymmetric fps, hard counters will always be present.

I know their different generes, but the reason I CAN'T get into other FPSs the way I could dust is that [b]I get to advance my character[/b

You mean you aren't very good and need to gain passive buffs to make you feel like you are accomplishing something.

not follow a pre determined get this gun, get this scope, get this drone, get this claymore, etc. The choices are made by me, not a programmer in [insert country] following the "Holy Book of FPS Design"

It's called FOTM, and its always been a problem. Its also exacerbated by the sp system where vets can always easily find and use the FOTM as their sp total rises.
