(edit: If You don't know what i'm taliking about, read sumit minutes - theyre is a possibility they will add limited SP respecialisation mechanism in eve)

"The CSM reiterated its desire for CCP to implement a partial skill respec, especially in the aftermath of major changes to ship classes such as the removal of drones from supercarriers."

SP respec. I mean, really? SP respec in my EVE?

I think someone got hit in the head with something heavy.

When titans lost ability to shoot DD trough portal and later lost AOE effect - no one refunded them their Energy Weapons V
When SB lost cruise bonus no one gave us Cruise specialisation back as SP
When there was nano nerf, no one gave us back skills from navigation and minmatar HAC 5
When you nerfed PI, no one gave us back PI skiils
When you nerfed carriers (removed large cargo-hold) no one refunded us capital skills

SO WHY THE HELL, when SC nerf hits we suddenly hear about giving back skills for drones, or more, even SP RESPEC MECHANISM?

Eve is all about action and consequences of said actions. As oposed to games like WOW, where there is limit of what i can learn, there is no situation when i hit imaginery wall and can not train further

In EVE when i no longer need some skills (want to check something new) i just start training them. I remap and +5 needed skills and start trainig for new stuff.

This will actually hit new players very hard - imagine that we have 100m SP bitter-vet and 5m SP no-longer-noob fresh player. Imagine now that CCP introduced new type of ships - something in range of new player that don't require tons of skills to fly.

What new payer can do? well, he have no skills to abandon just like that, so he have to train for it. What about bitter-vet? Well, he just drop his Titan 5 and gets all needed skill to lvl 5 in minutes.

This in turn will cause even larger gap between veterans and new players. Right now when something new is introduced (PI for example) all payers are on equal footing - everyone have to train to use new stuff. OFC veterans have more isk = can use +5, possible have remaps for such occasion stored, so they can get there slightly faster - but they still have to train to it.


SO ALL IN ALL - DONT RESPEC, OR WE WILL LOOSE ALL RESPECT :)

(by We i mean I, and everyone thinking alike)

No respec, ever.

*wipes off spittle from shouting*

Hate to break it to you...but its already there in the game...they've used it twice now.
But I support either way.

There is a difference between allowing players to choose what they dont like - remove it - and aply somewhere else

AND

reinbursting players for skills that where completely removed from game.

Hi goose99, good we have professional troll in here, this thread was definetly to much one-sided until now :)

You've got some serious issues man.

No to any SP respec what so ever.

Whoever dreamed this up should be taken out back and shot.

Survivors should be shot again.

And once again you miss the point.

Exactly, and tomorrow they will implement nerf for X, and day after for Y, and what? FOTM without consequence?

Do we know more than this:?

"The CSM reiterated its desire for CCP to implement a partial skill respec, especially in the aftermath of major changes to ship classes such as the removal of drones from supercarriers."

That could mean lots of things. If it's just SC and drone skills that get respec-able, then I agree that CCP should not give a get-out-of-jail-free-card to such a small number of players, especially in light of other people skilling up for stuff that later got changed.

If it means that we can respec say 1-10m skillpoints yearly, well, that's something I think is pretty cool. I have some more or less wasted skillpoints I wouldn't mind putting elsewhere.

edit. OP why didn't you give us that quote I have posted? Bad OP. BAD. Go to your box.
