People, SP is just for one thing and one thing only: training for better gear. It's no different than Eve Online where people simply log in, queue up their skill, and then log off. In Eve Online, SP is just a clock giving you an estimate as to when you might get to use something. In Dust, I see it as nothing more than a clock as well and thus it means nothing to me in any other context.
But it seems that people here are treating SP as if it's something far more important than ISK rewards or even Faction Warfare influence. As if people are DESPERATE to want to be in proto anything as soon as possible and thus come up with any excuse to want to make SP more farmable.
Why? I mean, you are not going to be able to train all of the skill books completely anyways for the next seven years and that's just with the skill books we have now and not including future skill books we might receive in the coming years. So why are people acting like they are in a rush to reach level-five-everything?
I blame COD / HALO for this. Their SP systems encouraged this problem.
SP just as ISK is a reward, not an entittlement IMO |

I do not understand how COD can even be brought into a discussion about Dust and SP, they do not go with a sp format anymore, it is a 10 point system.
This thread is touching on the thread I created,and is being taken out of context, I was offering my opinion on how to stimulate more players getting into FW. |

You're right. It's a reward in DUST. Not an entitlement. SP should be earned via patience. Eve has it differently but the concept is the same in that you're rewarded for waiting X amount of time to train a level.
ISK is the almighty currency we must bow down to. Not SP.
I can run around in basically blueprint gear, and do rather well on a K/D perspective and have 30 million ISK and never touch it,and never need it. ISK is useless unless you have the sp to level up the core skills needed to make advance and complex purchases...IMO
And I understand it should all take time and not be rushed. |
