Why is there a skill point cap anyway?
I love Dust, I want to play Dust, and I want the rewards for my kills. Just because you don't want to play as much me I should be punished? Where is the incentive to play there?
I would like to remind people that this is a first person shooter, and in Dust I am a merc. This is not Eve and I am not a capsuleer.
First person shooters require practice to get good at them, this is also reflected in the SP. Capping my SP is not going to make you any better and it is not going to stop me shooting you in the face.
All you are going to achive with weekly SP cap b*****ks is those of us who love playing Dust and want to play regularly are going to get pissed off (like we already are) and will end up only playing once a week.
Guess what that means... I, like many others will not be buying as much AUR. Whats the point? Your SP cap negates any AUR we spend on skill boosters anyway.
I say f**k the people that don't want to play Dust as much as the rest of us, after all, it is the regular players who are spending more money on this game. This is a game where the object is meant to be the harder you train the better you are. You want to be as good as us? Then stop trying to spoil it for the rest of us and play the f**king game!
Even if there is a cap right now its vastly overpowered. It reset on wednesday and 2 days into the week im receiving <5k SP for over 1500 WP in a match.
That Sir, is nothing but bulls**t! |

The OP didn't discuss whether or not SP Cap is needed or not, he compared different models and offered new one.
That's an another topic.
Initially it seemed that OP was just one of those forever rolling models, but after close thinking that's not the case.
It is actually an ok model.
but, OP, realize that hitting that daily absolute zero SP cap is like hitting a brick wall. Imagine for a while how it feels while playing...
Why not softer?
I got that dude, I'm simply expressing my opinion that the cap is BS all together. Why punish people who play the game in favour of supporting those who dont give a s**t? This is not a sub game so the number of people playing will not be the main factor lining CCPs pockets. It is the regular players who want to get the most out of the game who will be buying aurum.
This seems like a classic issue of cutting off your nose in spite of your face! |

ANY CAP ON SP RENDERS BOOSTERS OBSOLETE.
So can someone remind me why we would be paying for aurum? Ah, thats right there is no longer a point!
What a shame, no more income for CCP, no more Dust 514, look what you did you a*s*o*e! |

Are the boosters obsolete with the SP cap? Yes.. and no.
The short term boosters (1-3 days) would still come in handy for ppl who only have couple of days available to play and wanna catch up (read as: wanna use their accumulated SP pool).
The 7 days might be useful for ppl who have a hard week and only have 1-2h to play everyday.
The 30 days might be obsolete but I guess that might be just me not finding them a use YET.
so essentially its a con unless CCP explicity state the cap and its extent piror to you purchasing boosters. |

Still believe that the SP cap is a easy escape route for a larger issue and it will have dire consequences in the future. Please see this link for an alternative suggestion to the SP cap. |
