We need to just bring back starter classes but make them optional if you already have one character already made. Also, the starter classes should be more specific based on racial gear/weapons/vehicles and add a pilot starting role. |

You get to test some militia gear on a training are, then get to choose what you like and get the chance to buy/get a little stock plus a set of recommended skills. I'd like to stress that new players need to learn that suits are fitted and skills are specced as early and fluid as possible. Shielding them from this aspect could cause frustration after the first hours. Judging by the lack of heavies, tankers, snipers, scouts or anything that isn't an AR assault in the Academy this needs to happen. |

This is what OP is asking for It existed and they got rid of it because they're stupid descriptions didn't really tell people what they were getting into. It's better if that SP is not predetermined and left at free will of the user, because how is a new player supposed to know what they want to do when they haven't even played yet? Let alone half the community doesn't know what they want to play as: Tankers are asking for respec, heavies are asking for respec, dropship pilots asking for respec, etc. Half the community doesn't want to stay in a role that keeps getting nerfed. Tankers, heavies, dropship pilots... etc... |

Tankers, heavies, dropship pilots... etc... My point exactly, so why fixate a new player with something they don't even know is balanced? People don't stick with a niche role worrying about it being balanced, they worry about if it's fun or not. Balancing of a game mechanic should be in the hands of the developer. That's why we're still on this ****ing nerf witch hunt after 8 months because even CCP isn't sure what they want this game to be right now, even after full release. I'd rather have a newbie see what's available and if they love it, they'll stick with it hell or high water instead of following the FotM like everyone else is doing right now. If they think CCP is going to keep handing out these respecs like candy, they're in for a rude awakening. |
