Hell no, that cap is the only thing keeping the people with massive free time from completely eclipsing EVERYONE else.

As it stands now, the cap limits how fast they can widen the gap between the passives.

EVE has been openly and widely praised for just how well the nature of this skill system balances the issue found in all the other games:

Umm.. you will have to check the other forums, but CCP held a vote and the players decided that we would just keep the skill cap while we are waiting for the rollover - So give them some time, we got what we wanted for now.

And like I said in another post. All it takes is maxing 6 skills to be competitive in PC. Thats like 5 million skill points.

Proto Armor, Shields, Armor, Shield Extenders, Proto Weapon, Proto Damage Mod.

So yes.. you can catch up.

Stop complaining.

The problem is game modes, throwing low SP teams against high SP stompers is the reason for QQ. CCP needs to balance the pub matches to be SP driven so people don't roflstomped every match.

I wouldn't worry about it much, ad hom attacks, especially based on KB stats, are the best sign of someone who has no real argument. Not to mention that poor KDR is hardly anything new or surprising on someone that flies support the majority of the time.

And with that being said, why do people who don't play much feel entitled to the same benefits as the people who do? Be glad this game gives you passive SP so you are still improving your character even when you don't play, but don't try and complain because you don't have as much SP as a player like me who caps out every week.

I'm not going to send out a wall of text but I think if I could para phrase all of this it would be.

1. Allow a higher SP cap for lower end users to keep a healthy level of rewards going.

2. Players that are just starting out have a very difficult time finding the motivation to build SP.

3. It is demoralizing when players with 10 million SP are playing against players with 1.5 million SP like myself.

4. Most of the players in this game are over the age of 18, meaning we have real world obligations which keep us from being able to catch up to senior players.

This game IS NOT EVE. I know that is hard for some to swallow but that is the truth. We aren't asking this game to be unfair or noob friendly but let's make this game a play to win game not a sit on **** ton of sp game. Also please stop the arbitrary references to EVE key binds as many of us are to ignorant to have any frame of reference to what that actually means.

It doesn't matter if they have 10 million SP or 100 Million SP. There is only so much you can do with it. Once you get to like 5 million SP you are square.
I "could" see players getting SP boost to that 5 Mill mark. I could also see extending the Academy up to like 4 million SP or having matches where less geared players could compete.
But this "idea" that these super high SP players are gods and will stomp you is a myth. You don't have to catch up. That is the same as in EVE.

Have you even read the thread? I've been one of the most adamant, in this and others, about NOT lifting the cap, and the FACT that SP just isn't that important in the face of teamwork and skill. My point was that pointing to total kills and KDR as if those grant or remove credibility is about as legitimate as saying their gender matters.

Just proving my point that some people argue about things havenGÇÖt experience, which itGÇÖs like talking about Schr+¦dinger equation in quantum mechanics or the effect of a change in nominal income in the production function of a firm

Dear players,

Thank you for voting on the following options on the Skill Point system. We carefully followed the discussion and the voting process, and in the upcoming days we will be deploying the following system to the server:


- Weekly skill point cap of 190.400 SP (without boosters) from fighting in battles
- Players who have maxed out their cap will receive 1 SP per warpoint up to a limit of 1.000 SP(without boosters) per each battle


We chose to go with Option #2 (limiting skill points earned to a maximum of 1.000 SP per battle after the cap has been hit) as it was both the safer and the most popular option among the players. We will monitor the situation after the changes are live and look forward to receiving feedback from you. Once again, we would like to remind you that weekly skill point rollover system is being worked on and that this is just the temporary solution that we are implementing.

Thank you once again for your participation and feedback!

We will see you on the battlefield.

This rollover cap thing is nice to have for CCP to implement, but consider the problems CCP has to deal with at the moment.

PC Lag/framerates
Bugged comms
Matchmaking needs work
Nova knives not dealing damage when they were suppose to
Hit detection a pain the ass for many of us
Tactical Assault Rifles being the FOTM for modded controller users
Getting stuck on the edge of a building
Heavies needing work
Petitions being processed to address the whole negative-ISK problem
Petitions being processed until the last moment of the 31st for skill respecs

I can go on.
