At this point I am tempted to just come back to the game in a couple months and just spend what skill points I have gotten passively, and see what changes have been made. Other than the few CEOs who have the patience to put together a good sized company and do some PC this game is a beautiful empty shell. I really wanted to like it but at this point (3mil sp) their is literally nothing left to do. I even got a friend to play for a while, but he just found being outgunned at every turn frustrating. Ok, enough unconstructive criticism.

1) Give players more initial sp, and for all that is holy give them the option to respec their first character after a certain point.
2) Add some PVE or solo modes that involve exploration. I know the idea was to get the PVP right first, but I get to stare at the awe inspiringly large EVE universe, and experience it in a small room.
3) I also understand their will be balance issues. That is expected in a game with this kind of skill system, but you can't avoid individuals who have clocked untold hours into the game and are shooting you with Tony the mountain climbing super tank.
4) As stale as Halo, CoD, etc. are I at least had other in game options. Even if I got into a corp that was doing PC I would be doing the exact same thing only a CEO would tell me when to play instead of just clicking quick play.

I really hate to say it, because I truly was in love with the idea of fighting battles throughout the EVE universe, but the game in it's current state has gotten incredibly boring, incredibly fast. It doesn't feel like a universe spanning interactive experience. It feels empty. You have to include more than just an interesting Skill system to get people to stick to a game.
