EVE General Discussion

Now that T2BPO's are getting removed, ending a blight that has rotted EVE ever since the introduction I'd like to use this forum post to insure that CCP does not make the same mistake twice by overcompensating T2BPO holders and thus simply exacerbating the problem.

The value of a T2BPO is fixed in the amount of research points that they were first converted for. Any reimbursement should take place in that amount of research points for that set value. To give any more or less would invalidate the sandbox. Any value prescribed beyond research points in the form of real life dollars or ISK was purely player speculation and gambling, in short they deserve to lose.

If anyone is interested in T2BPO's or needs reminding why they need removed ASAP you can read about them in the below link,

All T2 BPOs should be converted into a collectible commodity. Any other compensation I'll leave up for debate.

They are not getting removed, its just the goon rumour mill trying to exploit cheap Tech II bpo's.

Please link your evidence, rather than a locked thread.

See CCP Greyscales comment re T2 BPO's at the Industry on talk on Saturday I think. Expect them to eliminated on the winter 2014 expansion along with changes to Invention.

So industry is getting left broken, then what's the point in these new expansions going to fix it? Goon rumour or not CCP should HTFU and plain remove them or just leave industry the broken pile of **** it is.

Any fixes to EVE industry that don't involve the removal of T2BPO's is akin to polishing a turd.

But hey you are right that does sound like something CCP would do so everyone chill its just a Goon plot, EVE is going to remain as bias and **** as it ever has been so don't cry. :)

1 Fedo each, take it or leave it.

Its the thread that will never die till T2BPO's are removed and the sandbox restored, also industry fix or something.

Bad news!
Your precious T2 BPO got eaten by a Fedo.
But fear not!
You now have a faithful pet.
Rock on!

If we're throwing about compensation claims I'd like all the isk forever after tech got nerfed.

Actually you could "tweek" invention some so that you get the equivilent of greens/blues etc doing invention ie say your doing invention on thrasher prints to get prints for sabers, and have the chance that one or more of them are better quality than standard, it could be a small increase in the size of the bubble the "improved/green" saber when it's produced, or it could be it gains a largish boost to something else like possibly having a role bonus that gives 125% bonus to MWD speed, or can fit medium size guns instead of smalls etc etc ie "blue/advanced" quality but then have the T2 BPO just produce bog standard sabers same as usual ie against baseline invented prints of the saber the T2 BPO of it would end up better for the decrease in mineral and production time costs, but it NEVER has the chance of producing green/blue quality saber so never produces sabers with some advantages over the default standard saber.

CCP could also have it do so in a manner where any pertic atribute or bonus could be picked randomly, though to save similar abuse to the original reason the T2 BPO lottery was removed, the dev ability to "influance it" should be locked down and require Hilmer to unlock that as well as have it tracked and recorded anytime it does get done.
