[Observation] Consolidated list of suggestions to address Talent concerns, bugs, and respecs
Solution to the Talent issue:
1. Give every current player a 1 time full refresh of their Talents (good faith fix on par with the Christmas rescue)
2. Set a cost of respec points to something reasonable a new player could find worthwhile (50-75R)
3. Add a UI option to select/undo talents before clicking to commit them. added benefit, it gives us an always up-to-date in-game Talent build calculator
4. Add a feature (cost per slot) to allow additional Talent 'loadouts' from the orbital station before starting a mission
5. Add ability to purchase more Character Slots
6. Grant Respec points to player characters to undo a Talent selection when the game has large changes to how Talents work limiting their usefullness
7. Cleanup the Talent Descriptions to adequately describe in game terms exactly what the talent does (a lot in the cook/farm tree are quite cryptic)
8. Fix the broken connectors in the talent trees that don't properly allow progress to higher talents, even though a path exists

StormFX MergedI, like others, am stoked that you've separated the solo and normal talent trees and the respec feature coming next week is great. Thank you for that! That said, I must look the proverbial gift horse in the mouth...
Can we please get a full talent reset (for both trees) or perhaps a free (optional) reset in the station? I get the idea of making players deal with their choices, I really do. But these updates bring changes that the players have no control over and that make previous choices obsolete, at no fault of the player. It should not be up to players to grind and spend their currency to counter design changes.
Thanks for the consideration!
P.S.: To the inevitable "make a new character" crowd: No. -

SeawolfI agree that 250 Ren is way too much for a single talent point. Artificially blocking players from playing how they like is almost universally reviled in games. There's no competitive gaming reasons to block respecing and if someone really wants to change the way they play, frustrating them with a large cost just increases player friction with the game, which drives players away from the game. It's anti-fun and should be MUCH lower.

MommickedThis needs to happen. The player know what they want.

shadowace00I believe 1 character if you work on enough on them should be able to unlock all talents instead of forcing multiple character builds down our throats, just let us use 1 or 2 characters if we wish to have more characters but let us put tons of hours into 1 character and unlock all talents in the tree. yes that character will become very strong over time but if we put the time and effort into those characters then we should be able to have those really strong characters, its not like there is pvp in the game and it makes it unbalanced for the newbies just joining the game
