Yet you ask to remove the skill cap?
Also even with lower skills if they are brought into a team they can still do very well against the higher lvl people. Also by that time the balancing of the game should be a lot better then it is now. Before you start complaining what might happen, think about the large changes that will be happening.
I will repeat myself, teamwork and strategy can over come most advantages of an individually stronger team. So if you are worried about learn the game and when new people join guide them and help them so they become better parts of the EVE and Dust Universe. |

Actually YOUR NAME HERE it seems you are the one QQing here about how you can't get to far ahead of people.
The cap helps keep a more level playing field among people. Sure you will still get stuff faster then people who have jobs, a family and other requirements in life but that's a given with how you seem to be. No one here is complaining about how fast you get somewhere we are stating the cap has a purpose to help casual gamers.
Also I do find it funny you call someone kid when you don't have the common decency so have a point without trying to insult someone. Clearly with how you behave you haven't grown up, even if you are considered an adult. This game is for more people then the ones that play it all the time. |

The SP cap doesn't let people catch up to the longer playing players. I do respect your want to fix the SP gap but letting the "no lifers" have no limit will just hurt the newer players more. Implementing another system to help that gap would be a better then letting the people who just constantly play get even further ahead.
As stated in other areas of the forum, you could use a High, Low and null sec like limiter on battles that limit gear. Or maybe skill limit that forces all skills the be lower lvls in certain battles so everyone has a more equal playing ground. I'm just spitting quick not fully thought ideas but removing the cap without a system to catch the the newer players you are just going to make it worse for them.
If you want to remove the SP cap then propose an idea that help the newer players instead of just hurting them more |

But you still said the magic words of having no life. People can't just have no life any time they want. You are still ignoring the point that it will only make the gap larger. Even if a few people can have no life and get decent skills it doesn't cover up the larger gap that occurs with the people that already play the game a lot.
As I said the removal of the cap helps no one and if you want it removed come up with an idea that helps other players out. You can just say have no life and deal with it. People have family, go on business trips, deploy, go on vacation, go to the hospital or other real life matters. They are the majority of players too, so hurting them because you want better SP doesn't make sense. They also can just have no life at a drop of a hat because someone brought the best equipment out and destroyed them.
If you set limits out the obvious ones would be meta level of gear, skill point levels, sp levels, and or squads.
Since squads are important in the game removing them in lower lvl areas would be a bad idea. So x that
Meta level gear would help out a lot in some cases but you are still fighting the sp issue difference. it makes it a more even playing ground but can still cause lop sided slaughter. Over all not a bad idea could use work
Lowering max skill level in a match would limit gear and skill bonus. Though this makes the game the most even it hurts individuality in the players which is one of the selling points i the game. Again not a bad idea but could use some tweaking.
Last is SP amount limiter, it limits longer playing players from going to lower lvel areas. Though keeps everything even it has a huge impact on teh game and would cause alot of issues. so this is a bad idea
Please add more ideas so we can talk about them and find a good mix of desired results not one side getting all teh buffs and the other hurting. |

I've noticed when someone proposes an idea that isn't exactly what y'all want you ignore it. Why don't you get off your one track mind and actually be constructive for once. As I said i like your want to help fix the SP game but so far all I see is you wanting more SP and for the ones why grind away constantly at this game. Think about other before yourself.
I'm fine with removal of the skill cap if you have a plan to help back up the casual gamers. If having no life for a few weeks is you answer on how to help the new players by removing the skill cap, it becomes very clear you didn't think this out. That only helps hard core gamers.
What other balancing are you going to do with the removal of the sp cap? |

The no cap for new players isn't a bad Idea but at the same time that doesn't mean they will get over the cap the other characters have. So far it's the only idea put forward and it can use a little of work but it still doesn't mean the new players won't get their face stomped in by the older players. Also that still keeps the cap which you are said you wanted to get rid of.
This game is as much of a MMORPG as it is a MMOFPS. They are trying to balance both aspects of the game.
Also who is only worried with only the hardcore gamers? CCP? Or the Imperfects?
If it was CCP wouldn't the skill cap be long gone because those hardcore gamers would be eating up the game more? or giving better bonuses for higher level gear? maybe better drops for doing better? true that make more money on teh active and passive SP boosters but that doesn't mean they ignore the casual gamers. They are most of the players anyway |

If you haven't noticed i have agreed with you that the issue needs to addressed but besides removing the skill cap you haven't suggested anything else. I'm asking you for more ideas other then just removing the skill cap.
I'm not saying you want more SP but removal of the cap doesn't help the new people any. I also agreed removal of the sp till a certain sp point is also a good idea but it needs tweaking.
I'm not fighting to keep the sp cap, I'm trying to get the game balanced in the future like you are but nothing outside of grind sp for a bit with no cap is the only thing y'all have said.
List of ideas:
No sp cap for new players till X sp total
Limit matches but forcing skills down to lower levels
Limit meta level of gear used in a match
I want other ideas and tweaks, other views and possibilities on how it could work. We all want this game to work out so get off reading only want to see and start thinking of other ways. i didn't think of the no limit till X sp level but it's still a step in possibly the right direction. |
