EVE General Discussion

So lets say that CCP makes the wise decision and moves forth with implementing the ability to extract, sell, and inject skill points. They disregard the cries of the uninformed, irrational, completely out of proportion rantings and ravings of the immature but loud demographic of entitled children and allow us the ability to sell skill points on the market to be bought by whomever.

Should CCP prevent some skills from being able to receive the benefit of skill injects?

CCP limits the ability of trial accounts to be able to train specific skills because its too much power too quickly.

Do you feel that even though yes, we can now buy skill points, this or that skill should most definitely not be able to be pushed from 4-5? That it's such a powerful ability to unlock that it should most definitely require the dedication of one to suffer through the time to train even though the others are not so much?

Personally, I think Cyno 5 should not be allowed to receive the skill point injects. Like, skill points don't equal skill, which is fact. Some noob flying around null sec in a blinged out Raven he has no idea how to fly that he paid real dollars for is just going to increase our level of entertainment.

But being able to stealthily light a covert cyno? Sure, that guy has no skill and is as dumb as a box of rocks. A black ops cyno is the gate way to let the people who actually do know how to play make use of that dude's bought and paid for retardation.

Any disagreement? Do you have other specific skills with an actual reason you feel should not be inflatable via SP packets?

Do you reading comprehension? Or do you insist on not following guidelines and proving how obsessive and stupid you really are?

No, it doesn't. But try to convince the trolls.

No it's not, this thread is just a way for you to hurl insults at all the other people with opinions on the SP selling idea and put forward your own in a place where you can claim that anyone disagreeing with you is off topic. The thread is redundant and reported as such.

Well, I'm very much interested in discussing this system so that works out for everyone, rather than moan about it. Any feedback we give on the other threads is just drowned by people who want this idea to go away.

My suggestion for the Skill Packets is Multi-Skill Training.

Instead of recieving the Skill Points immediately after you use a Skill Packet, the unlocated Skill Points could be used to train multiple skills at the same time. This would cut on training time, but without making early skill training entirely pointless.

Up to three or five training slots. The first is based on your implants and attributes, the others are unlocked by Skill Packets and train at a steady rate simuntaneously with your normal skill queue. This would prevent Russian Alluminum Magnates from getting fully trained Titan Pilots in a single day, but it would still benefit newbies and veterans. Being able to recieve the skill set you want at a fraction of the time it would normally take, but wouldn't invalidate the normal skill training.

However, we could still get a Skill Point Reset item, that reset skill points without removing them from your character. DUST 514 has that.

why should there be a restriction on unallocated sp? to make vets with 80+ mil feel superior over the noob who is trying to add 500k sp so he can fly a t2 frigate with t2 guns?

cyno 5 really? what blops fc is really going to let a 2 week old player who bought some sp, light a covert cyno for a 10+ billion isk black ops fleet? regardless if your buying sp to light a covert cyno you probably already understand the mechanics of black ops

no restrictions because it hardly matters

Hey guys, remember when we used to have good, entertaining trolls on the forum like Veers? Yeah.

Quote from another tread by Mr. Divine:

Bad idea written by a person bad at the game and thinking.

Thread should be deleted because it's redundant.

If you want to argue it's being different than the threadnought in F&I, well then since you're so familiar with that sub and what the threads in there are about, you should have known that sub forum was where suggestions go, not general discussion.

Get good at the game and forums, bad.

I hope I can totally remove a skill from my character sheet. Taking the useless skill points from mining isn't enough...I don't even want to see mining skill on my list.

Here's an idea.

Make a list of all the skills a new player "shouldn't have".

From this you can deduce a list of skills a new player "should have".

Then.....simply give those skills to every new player upon sign up.
