Bringing people back to the game would be something that may change my view on this topic.
But what I read in this thread are a bunch of people who already play who want a respec so they can erase the effects of balance on their character.
In the end, I suppose it doesn't really affect me outside of this action reinforcing FoTM chasing in the playerbase or any advantage my more measured approach to SP investment has given me.
But if the end result is more players playing this game, then I could get on board.
I think the FoTM stuff is overblown at this point. You can point to like 12 things that are FoTM.
I like the potential of it for the people with 10-15 mil SP. Having these players specialize a bit as opposed to being spread out across vehicles and different infantry roles would really empower them.
Imagine that, with all of them having 50 million or so ISK from an asset refund as well. I think matches would be pretty intense for a while.

Agreed on all counts...
FoTM is certainly less prevalent than before.
And we should consider things that improve gameplay and bring new players on board -- even if they whittle away some of the advantage those with more SP have.
But I still come back to the fact that every single FPS and MMO with skill trees need your choices to matter (otherwise what's the point) and giving respecs violates this tenet. Now, sure, if there's nobody left to play the game then perhaps we can relax it, but is that really the right decision in the long run? Is it really necessary?
Clearly, CCP has said no....and I tend to agree.
But you do make an effective argument, and I appreciate your tone in comparison to some respondents...Leadfoot |

I think the respec should have happened when all the suits and the weapons came. I think it would have been easier to justify the choices matter side of the arguement.
For NPE purposes, I'd probably build in an automatic respec at 15 million SP.
I would consider a respec at this stage sort of a compromise.

I've personally talked to 2 people in the same boat this week. There's no telling how much more effective these guys would be with a few specialized roles.

No, he's right, the disadvantage comes from the unwise spending, so why should unwise berrys be now be granted? |

Hey Archduke, since you're a GM can you give me special forum powers just for a minute so I can +1 your post more than once? It wouldn't be like farming, really
@Respec topic in general - Limitless respecs are, in my repeatedly stated view, detrimental to Dust. If requested I can 'wall 'o text' about it but for now I'll keep it short and sweet.
In fact I'll boil it down to a couple of questions.
1) How would limitless respecs NOT undermine the value of choices like invested SP?
2) If you (the respondent to this question) are not advocating limitless respecs but rather a "one time" respec what would your method be for addressing every thread requesting a respec which will be posted after this one last final respec is given?

PS ~ I say this as someone who has invested quite a bit of SP into things that serve no purpose for me. I have leveled several basic frames up behind lvl 3 due to misreading the text at the time. Level 4-5 skills are not cheap and since I have the specialist suits, they are also totally unused. I would personally gain extra competitive advantages were a respec to transpire, that however is insufficient to motivate me to support it at this time.

here are some steadfast unbeatable arguments for the braindeads anti respec people
1. getting into the next FOTM takes like 2 weeks 2. the game is dead in terms of relevance. CCP has done almost everything to make anything here not matter. 3. dust is not eve, stop comparing it and making yourself look stupid. in eve you get all SP passive and you need less SP for skills. you can do other stuff for a month, come back and have something new at really good SP levels. in dust, this is not an option. beside that, if you are not happy you can aswell go to the market bazar and buy another character with ISK

I am of the belief that when players reach 20-25 million skill points, respecs become unneeded as these players would have already accumulated enough SP to fill out their core skills, upgrade a suit and primary weapon to level 5, and have enough excess to dabble in other weapons.
However, for players that have 20 million and below, a respec would enable them to properly flush out their skills and would allow them to better optimize their builds. I am not against respecs even though I do not need one. In fact, I'm all for them even if I'll be inconvenienced with the task of redistributing my points all over again into the same exact skills. |

1. Define what "getting into" entails in your definition here. How much SP are we talking about, how many new things being added to the current character, how many support skills assumed to already be in place, etc. Context matters Also, if it is so simply then what virtues compel the need for a respec in the first place?
2. "Relevance" is, I suppose, subjective but this is pretty much a straw man. Content wise it amounts to saying "I think things are bad so I think it doesn't matter if we do stuff that makes things bad." Circular reasoning is not sound reasoning. If this has more merit and context to it beyond a baseline 'bitter vet = yes' sentiment then please detail it so that I better understand because at present it really does sound like you are just saying "I don't care so you shouldn't either".
3. Dust is not EVE, correct. Insulting people isn't terribly constructive and while I haven't compared it here so I do not take this comment to be directed at me I also cannot help but notice there are rather glaring reasons why someone might compare it. Some skills in even take more than a month for a single level so "really go levels" seems heavily subjective, as does the claim that you "need less SP for skills". You are correct however that you can buy EVE characters with ISK, not that their terribly cheap, or that you are guaranteed to find the build you are looking for (depending, of course, on what you are looking for).
Really with the dismissing and hyperbolic tone of this post I cannot help but wonder why you care sufficently about the subject to discuss it if you are so scornful of the trivial impact that having a respec would, in your presented view, have.

I decided not to try and explain why we don't want respecs - again. Whatever I would say would be misinterpreted and you guys would just go on repeating the same over-used arguments. So I'll do the same, and just suggest to keep an eye on the Forum and DEV-Blog - if we'll ever have such an option in DUST 514 ever-ever-ever again, these are the two places it would be announced.

Don't give us a full respec give us a respec that affected a specific skill tree greatly from hotfixes such as Dropsuit command and weaponry. I don't understand why after one year of great changes to the game small respecs are not given to players. I mean a change in a weapons profile, redesigning assault suits completely, and changing the bonus for scouts just calls for a respec.

GM Archduke, hello! I can't understand your frustration with respec threads, and know that you have more important things (legion) to do...so your superiors won't like you wasting time on a dead idea BUT
If this isn't convincing enough then....give me the CCP game development address to send mail to, i am sure you guys will be interested in opening some mail that isn't a bill
The respec idea sucks. Why give us a respec for free??? And i have NEVER had a respec by the way, so i am definetaly for a respec, but make it win-win for us and you!
See all the people wanting a respec....almost all of them have bought aurum, i can bet on it. And if they bought aurum to use items temporarily, how much more so would they buy the SAME amount to use them PERMENANTLY??? see where i'm going...?
Make the respec cost aurum, and the downtime should last the actual 30 minutes with all the devs resetting the variable value of available SP to equal lifetime SP. We would definetaly buy aurum for a change of play-style.
and hey, if your superiors listen to you listening to me, you will be much loved by the community...more than CCP Rattatai
Pros and Cons (most of them) Pro: More activity and aurum income Con: More protostomping happening (but your advertising sucks, so not many new people play anyway) Pro: More love from Xavier and the Dust 514 community Con: More threads about wanting this and that because we know that you listen to us (if you do this respec) READ IT. please
cheers!

respec could bring some people back and maybe they would buy AUR. respec for AUR would definately earn money because they are plenty of people that would instantly buy one.
I have yet to hear a valid reason why getting more people to play and earning more money for dust/legion is a bad thing and if earning more money is not a valid reason for then I guess you do not want to earn more money in which case you might aswell give us all AUR items for free.

I am sorry for the aggressive tone but this topic is old and annoying and can be mostly summerized into following: some people want a respec, they bring good arguments for it, other people do not want that others get nice things and bring not so good arguments. then we have CCP that could increase player count and maybe earn some money but obviously they do not want to claiming "this is not a valid reason".
and regarding my 3 points: @1 well I am talking about passive sp and capping out with boosters. enough to get decent levels of next FOTM in 2 weeks (not 2 weeks of play actually, capping out does not take that long). ofcourse this does not count support skills but you should have them already anyway from your previous stuff. getting into the next FOTM does not take much time but completey shifting all skills around another playstyle is something different, this takes alot longer, that is why people want a respec. @2 dead in terms of relevance to the EVE universe. without proper EVE integration dust has less appeal. @3 it takes less SP because you can do usefull stuff even with smaller amounts of SP. in dust you are pretty much handicapped in terms of what you can do with lower SP against people with higher SP because there is much less possible activities you have in an FPS. beside that, in EVE all weaponry support skills can be used for other weapons, unlike in dust where each weapon has its own set. |

But... What happens when a change in the game NEVER appear in forums or blogs before, like reduce the ADS ROF skill from 10% to 3% per level? And why the skill have been nerfed but the cost is the same: x8 per level? Is a secret conspiration to exclude pilots? Like increase swarm launcher the aceleration and maneuver capacity from 90 to 80 degrees?
Is not just my voice, all the pilots in DUST 514 thinks the same, but only the infantry voice are enought noisy...

I have yet to hear a valid reason/argument for this, and trust me, I've heard a lot of different ones.
Im sure this has been said before and apologize for making you take the time to read this but I could say there are several reasons for it, most may not be really amazing reasons. The first I would say would be for the newer players, I myself am not really new but was not around for the respecs and when I started made some noob choices when I had no idea what I was doing and seriously regret it as well as the fact that with all these hotfixes past and coming live really changed up suits playing styles and bonuses and such, this means that people have changed ow they run there suit, which to some point should be expected but at some point also took away some reasons why people spec'd specific suits. One example being the Cal scout, now some people do enjoy the suit for the layout or so, but I know some who spec'd that suit specifically for the precision enhancement it received for the passive scans and now they don't run it at all because that went to the AK.0 (suit that I spec'd just for stamina, lucky me), but that right there is just wasted sp that could have been put to better use. The same can be said for weapons, some eople went into others just to see how they changed with recent fixes or to try them out in the first place.
Yes doing this would increase the amount of people running the flavor of the month, but would also allow other people to spec into the necessary things to counter those as well.

If you could just possibly give us the option to respec all of our skills once and be done with it, forever, maybe it would be manageable. Please consider giving us a respec. Thank you. And for anyone that agrees, make sure you like this post. You do get points for at least calling it a respec, and not respect, but seriously, another respec thread? I have yet to hear a valid reason/argument for this, and trust me, I've heard a lot of different ones. Im sure this has been said before and apologize for making you take the time to read this but I could say there are several reasons for it, most may not be really amazing reasons. The first I would say would be for the newer players, I myself am not really new but was not around for the respecs and when I started made some noob choices when I had no idea what I was doing and seriously regret it as well as the fact that with all these hotfixes past and coming live really changed up suits playing styles and bonuses and such, this means that people have changed ow they run there suit, which to some point should be expected but at some point also took away some reasons why people spec'd specific suits.

It's not about how much sheild and armor you stack to win. It's how you use the suit to win.

Whatever I would say would be misinterpreted and you guys would just go on repeating the same over-used arguments. So I'll do the same, and just suggest to keep an eye on the Forum and DEV-Blog - if we'll ever have such an option in DUST 514 ever-ever-ever again, these are the two places it would be announced.
So we are then?.
