not everyone is motivated in their choice by "the most SP" option because the cconsensus among beta testers has been that unrestricted SP gains is not good for the game in the long term. this seems to be echoed by many newberries. |

I'm still trying to decide which. |

doesn't matter much when maxed out guns only kill 1-2 bullets faster though.
well played, ccp.
those numbers assume all players involve maxed out on skill.
The variance between a newbie with an AR and a proto Duvolle with maxed proficiency and a rack of +damage mods in the highs is like night and day. |

well played, ccp. those numbers assume all players involve maxed out on skill. The variance between a newbie with an AR and a proto Duvolle with maxed proficiency and a rack of +damage mods in the highs is like night and day. weapon table says vs 400 health, a max sp + 2 damage mod proto ar vs a no SP no damage mod basic AR will only be a 5 bullet difference. noticeable, but not anything insane.
Now consider the no skill AR recoil will cause you to miss a crapton more. the proto already has less recoil with a further reduction from the AR skill.
More accuracy = more bullets hit in a burst = faster kills by wide margins at longer ranges.
EDIT: Oh yeah, wait till you see officer guns in action. You'd think CCP gave the guy shooting you Finger of God in a can. |

possibly. trick is, once you max out a dropsuit and all of the support skills relevant to said suit and weapon of choice, old players have little to no measurable advantage over you.
Edit: I don't really care if CCP picks 2 or 5, so long as it's one of those. I'm just playing devil's advocate. Plus option 2 I think works as a max to normal SP gains. it's the option 5 that adds the "per WP" cap. Unless I read it wrong.
Which would mean option 2 provides more consistently stable gains for new players than 5 |
