I think a cert system based heavily on SWG's (original) skill system would be a good thing. 250 Points total at BR 100, starting with 52 at BR 1 and gaining 2 each BR. Your Basic Mastery Trees could be the same as infantry classes with vehicle trees being specific to a particular vehicle.

Like SWG, you can only truly master two Trees or spread yourself around as more of a generalist.

You'd have the Basic Cert which leads into a 4x4 unlock grid which ends with a Master Cert. Master requiring the entire grid to be certed. Each of the four columns could be something like Shields, Armor, Weapons, and Abilities. Or it could even be a larger grid to be closer to how certs work now. Either way, we need tradeoffs, PS2 letting everything do anything without any sort of limit makes the game too bland and predictable.
