Player Features and Ideas Discussion

they should, drop out the current rigs into cargo or whereever
as it would give so huge advantage for the current super/titan owners already having t2 rigs installed, over the newer ones

this is just another goonswarm boost :I

all the poors complaining makes my night more enjoyable

This is f*** unfair. Im a fairly new player and slowly progressing to a dread and now you tell me all the older players had to pay 1 bill for 3 rigs and ill have to pay 4,5 bil if I will want to have the same thing??? Seriously, you are really trying to get rid of new players... And its not like older players have the same financial difficulties than new players. You should seriously get more "new player" friendly and I don't mean that in the way of reducing training time or nerfing capitals, but more from the financial aspect. And guess who will have no problems affording the capital rigs. Older players and their big alliances, specially those with nice moons... Yeah, I should probably go and do some super fun mining, cause I should fly only stuff that I can afford...

I know you cant repay for the rigs, cause it would mean that you would need "print" and pump a lot of isk into eve and that isn't your policy, but maybe you could give these players bpc's and the salvage for the large t2 rigs they have fitted? Instead of giving them a 4,5 bil advantage per capital ship in front of new players... And now every one who has the skill and money is rigging their capital...

CCP Please also implement :
Super Capital Rigs.
Instead of seeding BPO - let the BPC be sold on the LP Store.

Ok so this seems like a good idea to me, I guess it's been a long time coming.

Although, if it's going to take 5x more to create the rig, that means it's going to be 5x more difficult to acquire the minerals to build. Now, as previously mentioned before, that is going to really limit what people are doing with their Carriers/Dreads, and also it's going to affect the market massively.

I imagine, we'll probably see a price drop in large t2 rigs, so much so that it makes them very, very cheap. Either that, or people will stop making large t2 rigs and focus on capital t2 rigs, so the large t2 rigs will be majorly expensive. Surely there has to be some incoming balancing on T2 rig production mineral drop-rates?

to save money

some rigs curently don't work

all rigs give the sme bonus whatever their sze is (a med CCC give the same bonus a large CCC etc...)

said rigs wich currently don't work will work after patch, so he is hopping that a currently not working one, wich can still be fitted (to no effect) would start working after patch, but this require rigging it before patch.

i see what he did there, so i ask for an answer to the very same question : )

Salvage alchemy was actually proposed by players in the forum several years ago, when CCP "fixed" T2 salvage to make T2 rigs cheaper and available to more players. The devs didn't even want to discuss alchemy and came up with a "better" solution, involving increasing T2 salvage drop rates in exploration sites.

What? You mean the "better" solution didn't actually work? I thought everyone was fitting T2 rigs to their frigs these days.

hell yeah, was about time cap mods go T2

If the prices on T2 salvage go up high enough, you can just self-destruct your T2 ships and salvage them for profit. Build more ships and repeat - yet another variation of the old insurance exploit.

"* Rigs that previously did not affect capital modules will affect capital modules"

Will this be true for large rigs that are fitted already but do not affect the capital mods atm?

e.g. large nanobot accellerator or large auxilliary nano pump
