you better run then, I see a healthy game, im having fun.. lawl

I am having fun too, but the numbers speak for themselves, it is very far from being a "healthy" game. Maybe CCP can continue to work on this title due to fundings received from eve (about 30,000 players connected at any given time vs. about 4,000 for dust) but any other shooters doing as poorly would had died already... and this is not something to be proud of.

there is just to many games on pc with less then 3k players doing really well, so numbers dont meen much..

I never have to wait to play, I almost never see the same people. the game is alive from the perspective of someone who plays every second day.

Signed 100%

I dont see why other people are not agreeing but giving legit information on to not have another respec... How about you get lost and or **** off. Take your **** somewhere else....

I have 10mill skills into **** that I didnt want before because the stuff I had was broken, having another opportunity to have a respec is all we need... After this update... I mean this update is literally a game changer. fixed a **** ton of stuff..

I want my respec....

Well guess what?................................................................................................................................................you're not getting it.

So great, you play every second day and can earn ton of SP to spec into things you want... but there are people who live in a grown up world with full time jobs and families to take care of who do not have the luxury to put much more than 2-3 hours a week of gameplay at times... why should they be punished from enjoying the game because it takes them half a year to spec into anything new? this is why a respec system is needed... "hey I'd like to try that new commando suit, but too bad it's going to take me half a year to get it"... in the meanwhile someone like this will get tired of the grind when they get a chance to play, and will look somewhere else for a more gratifying gaming experience. the biggest purpose of Dust is to bring more mainstream players into the world of New Eden(the devs have said so themselves)... the way it's setup right now prevents just that... I am being honest when I say i have friends who turned away from Dust saying it was too complicated or too hard to get into.

your not forced, you made that bed now sleep in it..

/edit I use scout btw,. 100% of the time.

I don't think "infinite" respecs is a good idea. However, I don't see no respecs as good either....
When I started I put that suit skill to 4 (you know the one/ the skill that does nothing past 3)- i didn't realize so a few wasted points there. Not a big deal but why does it even go past 3 if it does nothing past 3? Maybe someday 4 and 5 will have meaning, but for now they don't.

What's the big deal really? Why not allow (even just one) respecs in some form. It could range from aur, isk paid, to free but only x per year, to even reducing total sp by a percent (say 10% sp loss per respec). Or some combination not mentioned...

My point remains though. There's ways to do this to reduce the fotm risk to near zero. It would help player retention, make the game more interesting, and could be an additional revenue source for ccp. I just don't see the downside here.

*Updated Racial content- Rifles/Suits/vehicles (Heavy, Scout, LAV, HAV, dropship)
Not new stuff like commando suits/pilot suits

I really hope CCP doesn't listen to the Eve nerds on this.

The game is really shaping up nicely. Respecs will keep the game fresh for people.

I love my skills exactly where they are. I use a skill planner to track my skill path.

But what if I get bored? What if skilling into a totally different role would lead me to continue playing?

I WANT to see people stick around. I want 20 or 30 thousand players online battling it out for territory throughout New Eden.

Wanting people to suck it up and grind for 2 months to find some enjoyment in the game is a line of thinking I'll never understand.

Things like respecs is what gave MAG so much replayability. That and switching corps, still loved valor most. Instead of being stuck with 1 class for life with a high grinding crub you could respec into something completely different for a whole new experience.

Seriously dude? I just posted links to a number of well versed reasons why respecs are bad; in that other thread on the same subject that you posted in, yet you keep insisting that no one gives legit information?

In case you're just blind rather than dishonest i'll post it here again for you.

I could really care less about post that contain reasons we shouldn't get a respec. Hopefully you understand that some of us have over 10mil skill points, and we already put it into stuff, and on there hand, CCP continues to put out other game changing content, not only that, they dont even have heavy racial dropsuits, no rail, and combat rifle, what the hell am I supposed to do if I dont have enough to get their new ****.... HAH take another 4-5 months and continue to pay this game for passive and active boosters, nah... Im done with that ****.

Signed, a final respec after they will add all the missing stuff (Heavies, missing rifles etc)

Signed.

Only when they release everything this should be done.
Thats all vehicles,Drop suits...ECT

Would suck to have 10mill sp on something you dont want to be because they didn't release the gear you want

I got news for you, this skill system is made for the working man, a few hours every other day and we reach the cap. WE dont even have to play

next time post some background music I might have more empathy next time.
