Copy pasting from my buried post
I am honestly blown away by how many people are circle jerking about how this a good thing. I'm not so worried about the raised cap (which would require over 25 hours on average to cap rather than the current 12, great) than I am about the triple stacked boosters
Omegas aren't cheap, and most people can't play very long. Average joe who can't play much more than 12 hours a week and refuses to pay CCP will not make much more sp, probably between 300-400k, while a dude with money who isn't afraid to spend it gets 3 mil a week. This isn't closing the gap between noobs and vets, it's creating a new one between the casual frugal players and the hardcore no lifers. But you are all the latter anyway, you'll just see this post and laugh.
I'm mad because I'm an average joe, I got where I am through the long grind with very few boosters, now I can no longer play as much. Now it takes much longer to cap, and and if you're not paying you're not as versatile as the next guy.
Anyway I said my piece, feel free to slap me to the ground and circle jerk over my limp body, this is blasphemy and Ratatti is god |

No, 25 hours a week is not just "playing" that's up to 3-4 hours a day. I never said I was that upset about no lifing, I don't smile at it either. Someone wants to develop an addiction that's their deal. It's mostly the pay to win that increases the appeal of no lifing about 10 fold that has me raising my pitchfork. |

Those who max out these skill books are very powerful players assuming they have a shred of decent gun game. If you have maxed cores but suck royally, then you are not that powerful at all. But at the same time, once you max out the core skills and any one specialty you started off with, any extra SP after that becomes less of an upgrade and more of a sidegrade. You then realize you're not getting any better with more SP after that. You're just becoming more flexible.
For a long time now I have maxed out all skill books related to -- and complimenting -- my Minmatar Scout. I have recently managed to train up the rest of the racial scouts but I didn't get any better after maxing out my Minscout. I became more flexible, but not better.
I agree. Core skills are a smart mans sp sink, and I have them maxed already. I am not afraid of other people acquiring them, but I doubt everyone is willing to pay and play THAT much, even then only people who are interested in becoming a jack of all trades. Like I said before, the problem isn't noobs catching up, most of them are not going to invest this much.
The problem is that most noobs won't catch up, that top 1% that bullies everyone else is going to become that top 35%, overall pushing out any new players who aren't willing to sell their soul entirely right away, and relatively new players that haven't achieved that level yet and also don't plan on selling their souls.

You shouldn't be mad, you should be happy. Since you can't play as much as you used to, the increased SP/match will mean that you will be able to earn more SP than before, at an even faster rate.
You completely missed my main point man, this is only 25% about me lol
Please read my edit atiim |
