Seems it will help newbros close the gap quicker to me, but I'm curious what folks here think.
So far the count is;
YES - 2

NO - 1

I'm happy new players can catch up more quickly. I do worry though about how this is compatible with a 10+ year plan for DUST & Legion. There is going to be a lot of rage if SP doesn't carry over to Legion.

SP not carrying over would be a pretty valid rage point

 LOL, it's not 4th of November yet--the cap hasn't happened yet. You can't really be sure how your gameplay behavior is going to change until you ACTUALLY start working with the new cap.
NOTHING in Dust has happened until the Uprising Patch actually activates. LOL, why do ya love to torture yourself by speculating on your own reactions?
...We will see. I won't make my decisions until a week after I've tried it out.
Universe of good wishes for the 49, especially CCP Eterne...

I disagree, Legion should have a fresh start. Or at least dump all the Dust players into a separate server... Who wants more new player farming? |

it was more of a response to some people throwing a hissy fit because new kids can catch up quicker.
personally I'll never cap so the ammount matters very little to me

Yes, I'm very happy.
The amount if time it took to obtain all the Skills needed to be even a remote challenge to veterans was far too much, which made even Public Contracts unplayable for most new players.
Now that it won't take half a year to be competitive, we should see an increase in player retention and perhaps even more balanced matches, as more and more players will be able to put up a fight.
Sure, you can earn a lot of SP via SP Boosters, but after you get your cores maxed it doesn't help you win at all. The only thing you'd be accomplishing is increased versatility, something that can be done for free anyways.

I'm okay with it.
I have capped out maybe twice in my entire Dust "career". If you have the drive, and are enjoying the game enough, to reach 750,000 SP then you ******* earned it.
My advice to you, playa...

If it's 750k active SP then No. If it's active +passive = 750k then I'm okay with it.
Sorry for my bad english.

I actually quite like the new SP cap. Doesn't make me feel bad for capping out on Saturdays and having to get between 300 SP and 550 SP for the remaining four days. :P

I'm indifferent about it.
I never cap out in the first place so I really don't care.

With respecs only a purchase away, and more than 55m SP (i.e. no need to cap out any more), I really don't care.
If it makes the players with less SP play more, then I'm all for it. |

All the people that say no want to farm some more new players. Let them catch up a bit, I hate these matches that are decided within the first 2 minutes.

I completely disagree with this argument. It's totally shortsighted thinking. So let's go with your suggestion for a minute and wipe the slate clean. What happens in 2 years after Legion's launch when once again there is a huge SP disparity between new and old players? Are you going to do another SP reset to 0? It's not a viable long term plan. The real problem is how to integrate low SP players and high sp players. The way to do this is with an optional academy mode for players under 5 mill SP. Combine this with a larger player population and better matchmaking and you've got a long term solution that doesn't involve pissing off the most dedicated supporters of the game.
Best PvE idea ever!
