CCP, it is easy enough to make an alt PSN account to make another Alt account that you rarely play and just earn passive SP on it, why is it we don't have passive SP gain on all characters?
I think this would be more beneficial to you as people might use the passive SP boosters on their alt accounts because they don't have to make separate PSN alts. |

We asked about this when they removed passive SP from all your characters, but they didn't give any reason at all for it.
I especially requested it back, but there were no response on that. |

Cuz with the PS4 it won't be possible to make free alts and it'd be hard to explain why the PS3 gets it for every character and the PS4 doesn't without saying "Well, ya see, $$$"

You so funny. It doesn't make any sense to make alt chars (to play) anyways. Why you want passive SP for them? Are you new to Dust 514? Maybe you can find a squad who can teach you basic stuff. |

Because my Tanker doesn't make money, my Alt Infantry scrub does, it'd be nice to have passive SP on both so I can be awsum. |

Or you could have them be the same character and not train stuff twice? The only reason to have two characters is if you're playing enough to Skillcap both of them every week, and that's just a recipe for burnout imo. Besides that alts are for metagaming and testing out stuff with the 500k free sp they start with. |

This guy understood how it works. Skill everything on your main, **** those 500k start SP anyways.

It did made sense in Eve Online because you have a monthly fee. But in Dust? I don't understand it either. Maybe to boost the sales of passive SP Boosters? |

That's the thing, can you use a passive booster with a character with inactive passive SP? |

Your playtime preference is not universal. My available gaming time varies a lot from week to week and month to month, but there have been times when I hit the cap on both my toons a number of weeks in a row.
If there was no skill cap, I'd completely agree with you...train everything on one toon. As it is, I have an infantry toon and a vehicle toon, with extremely little skill crossover. |

Why wont you be able to make alt accounts on the PS4???
That is a piece of news I didnt hear about. If most F2P games are going to be outside of the pay wall then it should be just like PS3. Now prime time multiplayer will be like XBL so you would have to pay for all of those accounts defeating the purpose. |

You can make alt accounts...but just the ones attached to your the same PSN ID. So one main and 2 alts.
The requirement to have PS Plus to play online will prevent most players from just creating another PSN account so they can have another alt that actually earns passive SP. Unless of course you want to pay for a second PS Plus membership for that PSN ID too.
Of course Sony did say when it comes to Free to Play titles, it will be up to the developer to decide if they want to require PS Plus to play online. If CCP says no then everything stays as it is...provided Dust 514 is available on PS4. |

I have 8m in caldari vehicles. 2.3m saves up for proto pilot suit. 0 in infantry skills. I still have a long way to go before i max my shield skills too.
Why would i invest in infantry on this character? I dont. i have an alt gaining passive sp. 4 mil is plenty for him to play with. |

The question why would I use two accounts has a few very simple answers
- I'm unemployed, all my time is free time and thus spent on video games. #yolo
- The cap literally takes a few hours of playtime to reach, don't give me "You can't hit the cap if you have a life" I've seen people max out 5-6 alts in a week.
- My main is a Vehicle player, I don't mean one vehicle or even just shields or armor, Vehicle, all vehicles and both types of defense, my goal is to max out every vehicle in this game, which iirc is like another 20mil SP on top of the 14mil I have right now.
- Vehicles are expensive, Infantry is very cheap and so I use an alt to grind ISK (Because he has skills in weapons that I do not)
- Also, before telling me to go Infantry on Jason, I must say, If you have a vehicle capable of easily beating most people in this game who are in vehicles, trying to grind ISK and then encountering another Vehicle Player ends up in me bringing another vehicle because I refuse to lay down and die, thus being very expensive. On an alt, I don't have this option so I take it and rage a little.

Thats what I just said though you just fleshed it out more.
I doubt CCP will go behind the pay wall when Planetside will be outside of it. |

Why the fk should i pay these greedy @ss people more 60 dollars a year for online gaming while i already pay my internet company 35 bucks a month... like wtf, its like asking someone to pay 50 bucks to go into the amusement park and then asking them to pay 2 dollars for every ride... |
