You can try lots of different styles of gameplay with minimal SP, so stop complaining. If you are still bored dont expect CCP to cater to you at the cost of their vision.

No more respecs, no respec systems, get over it.

There's an alt for that.

Buying clones. I suspect there's a reason the IMPS don't have any land. They simply cannot (read: choose not to) afford to do so. The thought of spawning in advanced gear makes them spit on the floor in disgust. = )

Your lack of foresight is not my concern. = )

I've got more than one with 6m+

Methinks you ought to start creating them now? In a few months of just passive they'll be halfway there. Kinda what I did a few months ago. = )

Well it looks like I've got no idea what I'm talking about then, doesn't it?

There is better skill planning for that.

Luckily there is also no skill cap either. So over time you can be well geared in all roles.

However at the cheap cheap investment of 8 million skill points you should be able to be able to use base gear of everything and have max fitting and HP values to work with and being able to play the 'bare minimum' of ALL the roles.

^ hence the term Omni-soldier. Its an extremely difficult and challenging play-style as you have to make up with lack of good gear with player skill and experience just to remain competitive.

You can be rather effective day 1 characters, any vet around here can attest that for the ones that have been fully reset to fresh can tell you the are just as capable of destroying the entire field as they where when they got 8-12 million sp more.

This does affect me especially since i'm sitting on a mere 2.2m and i have to constantly balance between further specilization and getting some more options.

I have no clue what your last sentence is supposed to mean, so i just leave it at that.

Alts are too much hassle to maintain. Having a respect system would be nice. However a cost factor should be associated with it. Most RPGs I play the cost increases after every respect.

For example the first respect could be a 1 million ISK. The second one could be 10 million ISK and so on and so forth.

Oh man, another one of these threads pops up. What a surprise! And guys if you haven't been following my posts recently let me tell you exactly what I'm talking about here. You see, we've seen a lot of complaining and calls for drastic changes ever since the planetary conquest was launched. And 100% of the time these calls for drastic changes come from corps that hold absolutely no districts, because these guys have made some bad decisions and now they're beginning to notice that and want to adapt fast by shuffling up the deck once again.

Well, Mark, let me be perfectly blunt with you: It's not gonna happen! Let me tell you exactly why it's not gonna happen, bro. You see, man, Dust 514 is a thinking man's video game where decisions hold a long term ramifications and if you've screwed up before well, Mark, I hate to say it but you're crap out of luck, man! Now I suggest that you collect yourself, adapt and keep it together from now on. Peace out!

Well I don't know, bro, but you ain't got no districts so something's wrong.

Well as far as I can see, Mark, your whole alliance has 2 districts combined, no big deal there, man, but I don't see any being owned by your corp. I mean nothing wrong with taking the glory of the achievements of your alliance but at the same time, dude, let's not get too proud about it, alright? I mean here's the thing dude: My father was a millionaire and I did mow his lawn a couple of times and stuff, but that doesn't make me successful now does it? Even though I am. Successful.
