Pokey Dravon OSG Planetary Operations Covert Intervention 5286	Posted - 2015.03.10 07:15:00 - [1] - Quote The Hotfix Echo spreadsheet states that the change from x4 to x8 is to make it in-line with Specialized Dropsuits. However, HAV Operation is for Generalist HAVs (MBT/SHAV), thus the x4 which is in line for Generalist Dropsuits (Dropsuit Frame Operation). Would it not make more sense to keep the HAV Operation at x4, and then the DHAV/UHAV skill for the Specialist tanks be x8 to be in line with Specialist Dropsuit Operation? Discuss.

Foundation Seldon Heaven's Lost Property 887	Posted - 2015.03.10 12:12:00 - [8] - Quote What are you guys doing, stop arguing for more distinct skill trees to skill into. That we get access to both HAVs and SHAVs with one skill is a good thing. Screw consistency across vehicles and dropsuits, vehicles are inherently less useful and less versatile across all game modes and maps.

Shinobi MumyoSakanagare ZaShigurui Onikanabo Brigade Caldari State 1839	Posted - 2015.03.10 15:50:00 - [10] - Quote This is the BEST thing , could you imagine everyone who put level 5 into this rolling out in PRO fits .?. the rage would be enormous and people make up things to complain about now , it's too easy and coming from 1.6 .. it's only right in asking in comparison to the fees paid for the usage . You already see the post with bias towards HAV and keeping DS prices the same , it's not right . #NO321TAXFORHAV2ADS/PRODSRATIO Edit: To many people sit on a bankroll of SP's and ISK's ... whoever didn't have could easily , even those with no experience ... so I believe that CCP took the sane approach in this one . #THANKSFORTHESANITYINVEHICLEPROMOCCP Doubts are like flies and should be treated as such and crushed .

Takahiro Kashuken Red Star. 4100	Posted - 2015.03.10 16:19:00 - [12] - Quote Skill tree for dropships Vehicle command - Dropships - Assault dropships x6 - Racial assault dropships x8 Skill tree for dropsuits Dropsuit command - Racial light/medium/heavy x4 - Racial Sentinal/commando x8 Skill tree for HAVs Vehicle command - HAV x8 So dropsuits require less SP to skill into and have some of the best bonuses, ADS are far more SP intensive and have terrible skill bonuses to boot and HAV will now be second once specialized hulls are added and we don't even know what skills are if we get any to begin with.

Just the command tree, everything else is fine. *As long as 4/5 (80%) of infantry AV weapons are Anti Armor based you're never going to achieve vehicle balance CCP*

That's fine if you feel that way, but I find it somewhat odd that vehicle skill progression will remain different from dropsuit skill progression. The lack of consistency is what I find more troublesome. "That little s**t Pokey..." --CCP Rattati, Biomassed Episode 032 Dust514 // Podcast www.biomassed.net

CommanderBolt KILL-EM-QUICK RISE of LEGION 3195	Posted - 2015.03.10 19:12:00 - [19] - Quote I am just curious is the skill itself will actually give any sort of bonus or anything? I feel one of the biggest quality of life changes that CCP could implement quite easily would be to give ALL skills, yes every last one of them, some sort of bonus / reason for training up. I really dislike skills that either A. grant no additional bonus or B. are just flat out useless to spec into past a certain point.

The last thing we need is another skills which has levels that offer no benefit. Every level of every skill should offer some level of benefit. Every single SP a player spends should feel rewarding.

I listened to the feedback that there was too much of a skillsink to have that tree too complicated. I also did not require additional skills for the SHAV as originally planned. A Since Dust's introduction, there's always been a large, outspoken portion of players around who agonize when they encounter a difficult progression in their games, and are happy with a game only when it's as easy to complete as the 9-hours-to-beat games we've all grown up with on PS3. B ]Since Dust's introduction, the game's originators stated the game was meant to be shamelessly brutal and REQUIRE long (skill tree) grinding to prevent any 9-hours-to-beat experience, and achieve an elaborate X-years-to-complete-a-character-specialty experience. Answering and relenting to the fanatically outspoken feedback/pleas to shorten and streamline (argued by some players as "dumbying down" one of the only 'thinking-shooters' games PS3 may ever have had), always seems to bring initial joy to the people in Item "A", but deteriorates the aim expressed in Item "B"GÇª. GÇªand then soon after, is followed by a string of feedback/requests seeking MORE streamlining, because it STILL won't unlock-my-trophy-prize-in-9-hours-flat by the outspoken players who agonize about how difficult the game-progression is. In a game designed to function thanks to a long-progression, making the progression short and easier tears down the game. I know CCP is always valuing and inviting forum-feedback/forum-input in their game,... but I hope CCP is not willing to erode their game too much to align with forum-riot. In democratic "feedback" there's always the danger of players who don't like someone else's game stubbornly continuing to play it anyway and stubbornly insisting it be remade into a game for THEM instead of just democratically moving on to play the games they do likeGÇª "Wait" for the Hotfix to be inserted before being frightened by "how long the progression is going to be". Many of us who don't spend as much time on the forums as we do enjoying the game, (and so don't generate as many pages in our threads and never sound as "loud" as the objectors)GÇª have adjusted and LIKE the long-progression, have earned our prizes with a satisfaction that a "thinking-shooters" game like this brings, and are ready to grind into whatever 'long-prog' vehicles intrigue us with Echo. Echo is intended to START a new experience (some of us feel it's a "restore" of an old experience we've that was taken away from us over a year ago), and it's not meant to be the COMPLETED experience. It needs player-use before we get too carried away with player-feedback (..that very easily leads to suggestions to rearrange the hotfix before it's even been tried out , we know we're all guilty of escalating into thatGÇª) Universe of good wishes for the 49, especially CCP Eterne...

WeapondigitX V7 The Exemplars RISE of LEGION 258	Posted - 2015.03.11 00:55:00 - [25] - Quote Despite the lack of consistency between dropsuit and vehicle skill trees (difference in total branches in each tree) , the vehicle skill tree will probably still provide a considerable grind (10 million SP or more to completely skill in into core skills and some utility skills and 1 or more turrets and at least 1 PRO vehicle, if we get PRO vehicles, I have read a few small comments that we are getting PRO vehicles ) No need to worry too much.

DarthJT5 Random Gunz RISE of LEGION 297	Posted - 2015.03.11 13:02:00 - [29] - Quote We need Racial skill trees. Streamlined is a bad thing, which is why the whole new slots thing is happening. Diversity. There needs to be HAV operation (whatever dropsuit command is) --> Racial HAV (4x) --> Racial Specialised HAV(8x). Each skill needs a bonus that goes with its racial tanking. I. E. Caldari HAV operation would give a 2% bonus to shield recharge rate per level, Gallente a 2% armor repair etc. This is the only option in my mind. Dedicated Shield Tanking vet since Open Beta.
