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 argumentst.

lol

Biased much?

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.

Wow. Trolling Proficiency increased to 5.

Never heard a good argument huh? I don't know if you considered this or not, but just because YOU specifically don't think it is a good argument, that does not mean it isn't one. Considering the allocation of likes in this thread, you are clearly in the minority.

I'm assuming that you are of the mentality that, "you should pay for your mistakes," but what about the Gallente Sentinel, Caldari Scout, and Amarr Scout? In some cases they may be better because of their changes, but those changes made them completely different suits, and the player is hardly the one who made the mistake when the developer changed the way the suit plays.

But I'm wasting my breath, if you are the kind of GM who only posts to say, "trollololol nothing will change but I'm glad that you can at least spell," then my post is hardly going to do anything. I'm glad we have this player-dev/GM communication though, whatever it may be worth.

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.

I don't like to double post usually, but I had to after reading this golden comment. Let me summarize this:

"You guy's arguments for respecs are totally overused and provide insufficient reason to actually give a respec, so we won't be doing it. What? You want to know our reason's for not wanting a respec? You can't handle our argument. Just trust us that it's totally solid."

If our arguments are so over-used that you aren't even taking a millisecond to consider them, why would you even care if we misinterpret your explanation?

All the arguments, like counts, and bullspit that's tossed around mean nothing if the DEVs and GMs don't want to give respecs.

The people who make the game have repeatedly and loudly said that there are no plans to give a respec.

What more needs to be said?

I said what needs to be said.

If they don't want that respec so much, then fine, I'll live, but the fact that he comes in here trolling and saying everyone else's arguments are trash then specifically says that he isn't willing to give his own argument is an insult to the community. I'm just disappointed that I noticed this thread so late and that he probably won't be reading this thread any longer.

Considering the allocation of likes in this thread, you are clearly in the minority.

He's tired of saying the same thing, so he had a little fun.
If you want to know the reasons, use the search function.

a respec would help newer players compete with Vets
vets wouldnt need to use the respec because of the simple fact that they already got like 40m+ SP as it is.. so regardless they would end up with just a pool of unspent SP as before.. where newbros would learn the game and go a more focused route..

like the old philosophy in EVE.. a newer player can get up to speed with a vet if they train focused on a particular role.. and a respec in dust would help with that.

well maybe give us a respec and the threads will end :P

What people in this thread do not seem to understand is that I have no influence whatsoever over all this, all I wanted to do is to tell you guys my opinion, well, the CS opinion of why respecs are bad. But most people misunderstood even this, some were saying that this is just "lip service". I asked myself the question - do I need this extra hassle, stress in my life, trying to explain the same thing for the 1354848th time to people who think I can actually help them with this, when in fact I cannot?

Well, the answer is no, I don't. Logi Bro, usually I try to be super helpful, not just because it is my job, but because I am still a fan of DUST 514, still enjoy the game and still have high hopes. This stuff? Respecs? Again, should this ever be available again in any shape or form, we'll let you guys know.
