DUST Search - Respec Petition

Welcome to New Eden, folks. Stuff gets changed/added in Eve all the time, I've had things I've owned become useless and skills I trained for weeks or months suddenly be for nothing, and you know what I did?

I started training for the newly useful stuff that my corp/alliance decided was going to be our new stuff, along with all the dozens of other people who had done the same thing.

You'll get a respec, and then the stuff you respecced into will get nerfed, and you'll whine about it and demand another respec, rinse, and repeat. Beta players got respecs because it was beta, now we've passed the official release date and while I agree that Dust is still very much a work in progress, CCP can no longer give out repsecs at will to everyone in New Eden. I wasn't around for Eve's beta, but I don't think respecs were a thing back then, and even if they were I have never in all my years there seen an Eve player whine about wanting a respec because the 30-billion-isk officer fit ship they spent so much money on isn't good anymore.

>But Dust isn't Eve!
No, but I do believe in strengthening the link and making them more interconnected over time, and to that end one class of cloned skillpoint-earning human shouldn't be entitled to a respec that the other is not. If Dust players get respecs, I guarantee you Eve players will start wanting them too, and the snowball will become more powerful than you can possibly imagine.

>But I spent months speccing into this thing and now it's no good anymore!
So do capsuleers pretty much every patch.

>But this is a one-time thing, once I get my respec I'll never ask for one again!
Until the next time.

TL;DR... HTFU.

Thought you had skill - why the hell do you need a respec. People are leaving because the game isnt good enough and lacks content, not because of respecs I have 10 mill SP but the game is bloody boring. Respec allows you to have FUN the number one reason why i play video games Im stuck in my class, don't want to grind anymore. To play in a new class, same game modes from beta. Look the list goes on and on they released Dust with 10% content. At least allow players to respec to have FUN, nope not CCP keep following the EVE model and you will be left with EVE playing Dust. How many players need to leave for CCP to realize that they need to have respecs to keep Dust fresh.

How many players need to leave for CCP to realize that they need to have respecs to keep Dust fresh. You do have two alts to use. If there was a way to only allow players who willy nilly respec to be barred from PC and FW then I may agree. Also it was your choice to super specialize than branch out when you knew the repercussions so why are you QQ'ing now? Ask for new content - dont QQ for respecs. I'm not a logi lol I played assault it's all good game is dying anyways. Im playing games waiting for GTA V i gave up on Dust and CCP. Have fun with your dying gsme.
KING SALASI MAJOR DISTRIBUTION 149	Posted - 2013.07.23 14:14:00 - [4] - Quote They will never give us respec, what ever class they messed up or gun they tweaked to hell.CCP attitude is deal with it grind somemore or stop playing. Well I choose to stop playing, only cuz im bored. My class is Caldari assault, to me it would be fun to try out different classes. I would even pay for it, so in the mean time i will passively skill wait on these rapid updates. Waiting on GTA V and the PS4 playing GTA IV in the meantime. Once i start playing new games i doubt i will come back, good luck to CCP in the future.

KING SALASI MAJOR DISTRIBUTION 180	Posted - 2013.08.05 04:25:00 - [9] - Quote Repecs will not happen period, CCP is following EVE policy so this game is doomed. They forgot that they are developing for console not PC. Playing GTA IV Ballard of Gay Tony great dlc btw. Can't wait for GTA V.
KING SALASI MAJOR DISTRIBUTION 198	Posted - 2013.08.08 14:55:00 - [10] - Quote It's sad to see this thread get ignored by the blue tags. I feel for the folks who are bored of their current role, or the folks who finally understand the skill system and would like a do over to skill correctly. Even the folks who got their weapons or suite nerfed. If it was up to me the skill respec option would have been coded in the game from closed beta.

As an Eve player our skill system is way better we go by minutes,hours, days, weeks, and months. Also why you wait for said sklill YOU HAVE SO MUCH THINGS TO DO AKA HAVE FUN. Dust uses a grind SP systems that takes forever due to weekly cap with no rollover SP system. Also no PVE so it becomes a second job. Then CCP keeps tweaking stuff that internal testing said is was fine, until they releases it to the masses then gets nerfed. This seems to be the pattern now, also this is console not PC. If CCP can't balance from jump the then code in the respec option via aurum.
