@major
You don't think it's true that respeccing will break the game, but the long time citizens of New Eden say otherwise. New Eden is already inhabited by some of the most intelligent, resourceful and players in the history of all of mmo games. They are the masters of the spreadsheets. Tinkerers of the mathematical formulas. Abusers of legal loopholes.
Respeccing will only open up the floodgates for abuse. And if there is anything wrong with the system, the players will find it and they will abuse it like a rented mule. Mark my words. Do not underestimate the denizens of New Eden. |

Not unless they want to continue doing what they're already doing and only focus on people who care about them. I just thought the point of DUST was for them to get in a new audience - not lime light EVEs gameplay. The only two things these two games should share in common is the universe they live in. EVE is obviously more of a hardcore game then DUST will be.
But that's just my opinion.
If players are not willing to live with the consequences of their choices, regardless if said choices were informed or not, then New Eden is no place for them.
All choices must have meaning. But in order to have meaning, the consequences of those choices must be permanent. In Eve Online, I currently have some of my SP invested in science skills. I now have no use for those skills. But guess what, I didn't create some thread asking CCP to undo that mistake for me. I accepted the reality of my mistake and then moved on to other skills. Who knows? Maybe those "unwanted" skills that I have might come in use one day. |

@Sota PoP
I also want Dust to succeed as well. And you are right that it's your opinion. If there is anything important for our community is that we all must learn to agree to disagree. |

No more no less, no purchasble at increasing levels of AUR or ISK all of those methods could become an avenue to P2W or abuse. But a single use one time this is it are you really sure you want to use this now reset would be perfectly acceptable fair and fall in the line with the NEW EDEN concept of living with your choices as well as the notion of learning from your mistakes(but you get only 1 pass make it count).
No pass. Not even a once-in-a-game's-lifespan opportunity. But I know what you mean.
EDIT:
Scratch what I just said. I think the only time this would ever be allowed is when CCP decides to delete skill books like they did during Apocropha or Dominion for Eve Online when they finally got rid of the "Learning" skill books. Players invested about 5 million SP alone on that one which is nothing considering that more players are emerging with 100 million SP total skill books trained in their lifetime. Those SP were then reimbursed to the players as "un-allocated" SP. Since I only invested 1 million SP in Learning skills out of my 10 million SP, I was reimbursed only 1 million SP.
That was the only time that ever happened. |

This is correct. But as I said, the only way I would condone a respec is when they reimburse players for the SP invested in certain skill books in which CCP ever decides to delete due to redundancy issues as noted by the learning skills being deleted from Eve. |
