Yeah, I think that 12 hours is a little bit more reasonable than 24.

Ok, everyone here seems to be in agreement and even the crowd on the OF seem to be in agreement with no flaming???

Oh, and yeah, I agree with a lower cert timer too :)

Yeah it would be nice. It's not gonna happen though. People have been asking for this since early beta. The devs won't even acknowledge threads that suggest this, no matter how many agreeing people post in them.

12 hours would be a lot better.

I COMPLETLY DISAGREE WITH THIS METHOD!!!!
Make it a 24 hour time period to get your cert points (Or 1 cert every 3 hours) and make it so you can drop as many as you want. If they dont want an adaptable soldier then why do you get the cert points instantly? EG: That prowler/vanguard rolls up and you want your AV but dont have it certed? Well just hit that terminal and you forget that worthless BD and learn AV!! So now your fucked if you face infantry (But hey you can kill those MAXes as well). My point being that your just as versitile until you use it. So you can react to the situation and, with a small amount of forethought, be viable in upcoming situations. That is rediculous. If they want a "niche" soldier then the system that i have suggested would be much better. I could drop that HA/SA/CE/AdvH/Med for a completly new niche guy such as Inf/CE/AdvH/AdvM/UniMAX. The draw back being that I am a completly useless soldier until I get my points back. And if you dont like waiting 24 (or 12) hours then implement the 1 cert pt a hour method. That way it would at most take 23 hours to recert an entire charactor. I especailly like this method because I play almost every night at 10:30. So if my certs become available before I get back...fun ensues.
I would also like to point out that most of the target PS audience is Adult. That being said a majority of the gaming population has a job and significan others (Be they GF/BF or children or just family) that require attention. So the 23 hours isnt nearly as gruesome(SP?).

finaly a negative post, thought we were all in the twilight zone for a seond there, and yes 12 hours would be cool, but maybe the higher ur BR abd CR the less time u have to wait

I believe I read a post from Smokejumper recently that stated he was against giving more flexibility to the higher BRs over the lower BRs for swapping out their certs, because he felt they already had the highest flexibility in having the most points to work with. At work so can't get to OF to find and do linkage.
I, However, like that idea of being able to completely revamp once a week. I have recently changed all my certs out to try a different play style, and it has taken me that long anyway.

On that note, 12 may be a bit much, maybe 18 or 20.

The 24 hour recert timer doesn't really bother me. What bothers me is that you can only uncert 1 thing in that 24 hours. I would rather have the ability to uncert multiple certifications or possibly a Once-a-Week Certification wipe where you can uncert all certs at once and you don't get that option for at least another week.
