I have been having trouble lately deciding if I want to specialize in missile or drones.
Im not really sure what either one is capable of with extremely high skills and I keep changing my mind everytime I discover a new fact.
I am worried I will spend months training up either missile or drones and not be happy with my choice in the end.
I thought to myself that it would be so helpfulif I knew first hand what each skills is like maxed out so i would know what i like and what fits my playstyle.
My idea is simple, On the "TEST" server once Kali comes out and everything is settled ccp gave every single person all the skills in the game and make them all level 5 for just a week.
This will allow everyone to test the skills they are thinking about training and see if they are happy with it or not.
Anyone have any comments or suggestions about this?

I would like to play around with level 5 skills in everything, immensly.
But, so does probably everyone else, so the test server would start to whimper in it's corner when it gets more people than it's designed to handle...
So basically, yes it'd be great. Are they gonna do it? No.
Two possible reasons:
1) CCP are a bunch of mean people preventing people from testing things out :(
2) SiSi couldn't handle all the people coming in to play around with level 5 skills all around.
Plus devs like to be unique in their level 5ness.

Hehe i too would love to have level 5 skills all the way however its been asked for before and politely declined before.
One group of players did get every skill to V once. I know visitors to the Fanfest last year got an arena server for the PvP championship they held with all skills maxed. So get your credit card out and book a flight to Rekyavik

Do both, but do drones first. T2 mediums with the combat skill are very sexy.

They did this in SWG, and believe me, while it sounds good when you first think of it, in practice, it's a nightmare. What ends up happening, is you get the test server jam packed with people wanting to pvp with max skills creating an unbelievable zoo.
Any legitimate testing becomes all but impossible in the situation it generates. Been there, done that (threw up my hands in despair and gave up on playtesting/bugreporting the things the SWG developers had asked for and logged).
CCP has the right idea when it comes to this one. A polite, yet firm, "no".

Market -> Skills -> Drones, uncheck "show only available", open up all skills and write down everything.
Same for missile skills.
Then again for actual drones.
Then from actual missiles.
Now that you're done collecting info, decide what ship you want to fly.
Also, decide WHAT you want to do with it, PvP, PvE, or a bit of both ?
Is it Gallente ? Most probably, drones then. If not, skip next line.
Is it Caldari ? Almost certainly, missiles. If not, read next line.
Anything else ? Start calculating, depending on ship's stats (slots, dronebay).
It can't be THAT hard.
